Nancy Pelosi was in full flower and fine fettle today, calling out crazy questions and even bestowing nicknames upon the guy who worked for Sinclair Broadcasting.

1:00.0

Well, let me just say this. I'll say to you, Mr. Republican talking points, what I said to the president of the United States, when you talk about the whistleblower, you're coming into my wheelhouse.
