Unfortunately for the excitable freshmen Democrats, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is the one calling the shots. Cute as they are, their demands that President Trump be impeached look like they’re going nowhere because of her.

Freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., told supporters Thursday, “We’re gonna go in and impeach the motherfucker!”

In anticipation of this exact kind of lunacy, Pelosi, in all her political wisdom, appointed Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., to head the House Judiciary Committee. And Friday on CNN, he indicated he has no interest in impeachment.

“I don’t really like that kind of language,” he said of Tlaib before bluntly contradicting her Howard Dean-like scream for impeachment. “More to the point, I disagree with what she said. It is too early to talk about [impeachment] intelligently. We have to follow the facts, we have to get the facts. That's why it is important to protect the [special counsel] investigation. That’s why it’s important to do our own inquiry.”

Pelosi has long disregarded the delusional talk of her party’s left flank. Speaking with reporters in May last year, Pelosi called dreams of impeachment a “distraction” that shouldn’t dominate the Democrats’ national message.

“Impeachment, to me, is a divisive issue, unless there’s something as conclusive as what we saw in Watergate,” she said. “That was inevitable. That was bipartisan. You can talk about it in your districts. In my district, it’s a very popular issue. But it takes attention away from the connection we need to make to people about their economic security.”

In an edition of the media’s never-ending quest to find something medically wrong with Trump, MSNBC's Mike Barnicle in June of 2017 asked Pelosi, “Are you concerned about the president's health?" After a three-second blank stare that must have made Barnicle’s life flash before his own eyes, Pelosi replied, “It's about the facts and the law and there's nothing else."

Unsatisfied with what was a clear choice by Pelosi to avoid a mindless question, the journalist, Mark Halperin, now in purgatory following allegations of sexual harassment, asked her, "Are you concerned about his health or not?" Pelosi only offered that she was "concerned about [Trump's] fitness for office.”

In addition to impeachment, freshman Democrats’ legislative priority has been dunked in cold water, and not by Republicans.

They have demanded a “Green New Deal” but Rep. Kathy Castor, D-Fla., who was picked to chair the “Select Committee on the Climate Crisis,” is on record saying this "deal" is “not going to be our sole focus.”

Impeachment, endless investigations, and grand dreams of an economic overhaul is what the freshmen House Democrats wanted. Pelosi, Nadler, and Castor is what they got.
