Nancy Pelosi murdered Joe Biden’s political career but now she wants him on Mount Rushmore – what a shameless hypocrite!

Nancy Pelosi has what we British would call a “brass neck.”

It’s a saying that alludes to someone so thick-skinned, it makes them utterly impervious to any sense of shame for their self-interested or hypocritical actions.

It’s an open secret in Washington that Pelosi just did to Joe Biden what Marcus Brutus did to Julius Caesar.

Of course, she didn’t actually kill him.

But she did kill his political career.

And she did it in a manner so ruthless that I’m told — on reliable authority — that Biden will never forgive her for it.

Following the president’s humiliating debate debacle with Donald Trump, Pelosi appointed herself chief assassin, albeit one who continued to support him publicly while knifing him in the back behind the scenes.

As Politico reported on July 17, quoting one of her allies: “The speaker does not want to call on him to resign, but she will do everything in her power to make sure it happens.”

And that’s exactly what she did, until Biden finally fell on the sword she’d dropped in front of him.

“Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way,” the media were briefed afterward, making her sound like Michael Corleone in “The Godfather Part II.”

So Joe Biden was forced to quit his dream job, the one he had fought so ardently to get his whole political life, and the one he never had any desire or intention of voluntarily giving up.

By backing out of the 2024 race, just four months before the election, and six months before the end of his first term, Biden instantly entered the pantheon of biggest-ever presidential losers.

In the process, he also became a global laughingstock — an object of ridicule, mockery and embarrassment that reportedly left him feeling utterly crushed.

Yet on Sunday, there was his assassin, Nancy Pelosi, popping up on “CBS News Sunday Morning” to call for him to be added to Mount Rushmore, the great American stone shrine to democracy that features 60-foot faces of four truly great American presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln.

“Such a consequential president of the United States, a Mount Rushmore kind of president of the United States,” Pelosi sighed about Biden to interviewer Lesley Stahl, who was so startled, she retorted incredulously: “Are you really saying that he belongs up there on Mount Rushmore? Lincoln and Joe Biden?”

“But you got Teddy Roosevelt up there, and he’s wonderful,” Pelosi insisted. “I don’t say take him down, but you can add Biden.”

Like I said, she’s got a brass neck.

In fact, it would be hard to think of any female politician in American political history whose neck is made of a stronger metaphorical alloy of copper and zinc.

But she’s also got a forked tongue.

“No, I wasn’t a leader of any pressure party,” she lied when Stahl asked if she’d led the plot to topple Biden. “Well, let me say things that I didn’t do. I didn’t call one person. I did not call one person. I could always say to him, ‘I never called anybody.'”

I laughed out loud when she said that.

Even if you take her at her word, which I don’t, this was akin to hearing the aforementioned Michael Corleone saying he never killed his Mafia mob boss rivals.

Technically, he didn’t — he just got his people to kill them while he attended the baptism of his godchild, praising God and renouncing “Satan and all his works.”

Pelosi continued: “What I’m saying is, I had confidence that the president would make the proper choice for our country, whatever that would be, and I said that whatever that is, we’ll go with.”

This, as everyone knows, including Biden, is bulls—t.

As was Pelosi’s claim that she never noticed any decline in the president’s abilities.

“No,” she replied, emphatically and unambiguously.

Really, Nancy?

Then why did you force him out?

The whole reason for your plot to get rid of him was his physical and cognitive decline, laid bare so obviously in that debate!

Perhaps the creepiest moment of a breathtakingly disingenuous interview came when Pelosi smirked after being asked how Biden feels about her now and replied: “He knows I love him very much.”

Er … no, he doesn’t.

What Biden really knows is that one of his closest friends in politics, someone he’s known and worked with for 40 years, and who, like him, is a devout Roman Catholic who carries rosary beads in her pocket, pounced on him at his most vulnerable moment and devoured him like a ravenous jackal feasting on the still-twitching carcass of an elderly bison.

And in that moment, Nancy Pelosi revealed who she really is — a ruthless, conniving, mercilessly disloyal female version of Marcus Brutus.

“Et tu, Brute?” Caesar was said — by Shakespeare, at least — to have remarked as his great friend led a rampaging group of senators to stick a large knife into him.

There is no record, yet, of what Biden said as he realized his own game was up.

But it wouldn’t surprise me, given their shared knowledge of Latin phraseology from their faith, if it was three simple words: “Et tu, Nancy?”
