Nancy Pelosi Falsely Claims Congress is the ‘Superior Branch’ of Government

WATCH: Pelosi says that Barr lied to Congress

Three EQUAL branches of government were designed to keep each other’s power in check.

Nancy has apparently let her power get to her head, because she’s developed a bit of a superiority complex.

Pelosi now thinks Congress is the “superior” branch of Government.

She’s wrong.

According to Fox News:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday declared that Congress is a “superior branch” of government, as the clash between congressional Democrats and the Trump administration over closely held documents intensifies.

WRONG.

During an interview with Robert Costa for Washington Post Live, Pelosi, D-Calif., was asked whether Congress is functioning as a coequal branch of government.

“I think we’re a superior branch, quite frankly,” Pelosi said. “We have the power to make the law and the president enforces the law. So we have a big role. We’re closest to the people and we have a big role to play.”

The Founders are rolling over in their graves.

EVERY branch has a big role to play, you insufferable dolt.

Despite Pelosi’s opinion, the U.S. Constitution, in its first three articles, defines three separate, but equal, branches of government: legislative, executive and judicial. The separation of powers also creates a system of checks and balances to ensure all three branches are coequal.

Riiiight. That’s the whole point.

You think the SPEAKER of the FREAKING HOUSE would know that.
