I like playing make-believe with my daughters. Playing make-believe at home with children is perfectly fine.

But Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is playing a game of make-believe in Congress, and the California Democrat is playing a game of life and death. Pelosi is pretending that her speaker’s gavel is a magic wand that can magically change reality. Someone needs to remind Pelosi that her gavel isn’t magic before American consumers suffer the consequences.
