Pelosi Pushes Back On GOP Leader’s ‘Growing Mobs’ Criticism

October 9, 2011

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said she agrees with protesters from Wall Street to Washington who are saying most of the country isn’t getting a fair shake from the financial and political establishments. “I support the message to the establishment, whether it’s Wall Street or the political establishment, that things have to change,” she said. Republicans are largely criticizing the message from demonstrators as divisive. Asked to respond, the California Democrat said on ABC’s “This Week” that the GOP didn’t object to the Tea Party’s in-your-face protests against members of Congress in last year’s elections. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor recently said he was concerned about the “growing mobs” and criticized those who support them. He said condoning the demonstrations amounted to supporting the “pitting of Americans against Americans.” HuffPost’s Zach Carter reports : “I didn’t hear him say anything when the Tea Party was out actually spitting on members of Congress,” Pelosi said, referring to a 2010 event on Capitol Hill in which a Tea Party protester spit on Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) . The loosely-affiliated movement amassed on Wall Street and in Washington in recent weeks is protesting the power of the financial and political sectors.

Californiality Supports Senate Bill 914

Californiality , a statewide California blog, supports Senate Bill 914 , the California Mobile Device Privacy Act . After an overwhelming number of emails were received by Californiality in support of SB 914, this blog’s publisher made Governor Jerry Brown aware of the high level of public support for signing the bill into law. California Senate Bill 914 is the Legislature’s answer to a California Supreme Court ruling that allowed officers to search a suspect’s cellphone as an “incident to an arrest.” The Constitution states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated.” Cell phones, laptops, tablets and related electronic file storage devices constitute the people’s “papers” and “effects.” Californiality contacted Governor Jerry Brown in support of SB 914 for the following reasons: The bill would not prevent police from ever searching a phone or any electronic device.
