Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) slammed House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as “not responsible” following his reported support for expunging former President Donald Trump’s two impeachments. Advertisement“Kevin is playing politics, it’s not even clear if he constitutionally can expunge those things,” said Pelosi, who served as speaker for eight years. These people look pathetic.”Politico, which reported on the “secret” expungement promise last week, noted that McCarthy’s own leadership team is split on revisiting Trump’s record of disgrace. Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) introduced resolutions last month expunging the two Trump impeachments. It’s uncertain whether GOP lawmakers who voted to impeach Trump, namely Reps. Dan Newhouse (R-Wash.) and David Valadao (R-Calif.), would back such an effort.
