Nancy Pelosi shows no sign of freeing the Democratic Party from her grip

Even though she no longer has the gavel, Nancy Pelosi still appears to be in the driver’s seat inside the Democratic caucus as the party braces for a second Trump administration.

The 84-year-old Speaker Emerita was viewed as a chief foil for then-President Donald Trump during his first term, where she engaged in tense meetings with him inside the Oval Office or the moment she ripped up a copy of his speech at the end of his State of the Union address in 2020.

Earlier this month, the two-time speaker filed a statement of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission after winning a 20th term last week. A spokesperson for Pelosi declined to say whether she is running for reelection, but the paperwork is an early indication of her intentions.

“There were rumors that she would step aside if Harris won so then the Democrats could do their thing, and then stick around if Trump won because, you know, she believes she needs to lead the anti-Trump forces,” said Steve Maviglio, a Sacramento-based Democratic strategist in an interview with the Washington Examiner.

Sounds like Hakeem Jeffries is just a token, and Pelosi is still in charge.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Good! She has the bizarro Midas touch - everything she grasps turns to turd.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Of course she is. She, above all, is responsible for setting the stage for J6, thwarting security, and perhaps even working with three-letter agencies to ensure the more violent episodes.
If she relinquishes power, she could go down for that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
