 Pelosi to ‘address her future’ amid questions on whether she’ll stay as Democrats’ leader
by Olafimihan Oshin and Mychael Schnell - 11/17/22 7:24 AM ET

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) will “address her future plans” on Thursday, a top aide said shortly after news broke that Republicans will control the House of Representatives next year.

“@SpeakerPelosi has been overwhelmed by calls from colleagues, friends and supporters. This evening, the Speaker monitored returns in the three remaining critical states,” Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff, Drew Hammill, wrote in a tweet late Wednesday.

“The Speaker plans to address her future plans tomorrow to her colleagues,” Hammill added. “Stay tuned.”

A source told The Hill that Pelosi brought two versions of her speech home with her Wednesday night.

Republicans were projected to regain majority control of the House for the first time since 2018 after The Associated Press called a race in California for incumbent Rep. Mike Garcia (R), giving the GOP a 218th seat in the lower chamber.

Pelosi, 82, has been notably mum on her plans, deflecting questions about where the longtime Democratic leader sees herself in the caucus during the next Congress.

During an interview with ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday, she said she was not commenting “until this election is finished,” but told CNN’s “State of the Union” that her decision would “of course” come before Democrats are scheduled to hold leadership elections at the end of the month.

The Speaker has not, however, hinted at what that decision includes.

Pelosi step down? With her ego, I still say she leaves either dragged out kicking and screaming or in a body bag.

Frankly, I think that there are many octogenarians in both parties that should step down. Nancy is particularly one of them!! Enough with Pelosi.

Kevin McCarthy has not bothered to come to the House Chamber to be present for Pelosi's speech.

So what?

Does that mean he’s going to arrest our children and kill them?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Is Nan angling for that ambassador job? Plenty of wine in Italy for her alcoholic husband.

What McCarthy does remains of course to be seen and I wish that someone more conservative was selected.

Hopefully Nan will pucker up and leave politics altogether.  She's done. It's over.

Things would get even better if McConnell finds it necessary to step down -- that would be great news.  :beer:

I guess she thinks that she's done her "life's work" and it's time to hand over the gavel. Off to be a caretaker to husband, lecture, get on Boards, and commentate. I think that she'll be a thorn until she's in a jar on a mantelpiece. I do like the ambassadorship in Italy though. Yes, for the wine and the place tends to be a political mess!  22222frying pan

Her best future probably should include a stay at the Betty Ford Center.
