Nancy Pelosi to Return to Washington for Speaker Vote

Wendell Husebo 2 Jan 2025

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), 84, intends to be in Washington, DC, on Friday for the Speakership vote.

Pelosi’s return is significant because Axios reported in December that Pelosi either lost or relinquished her “iron fist” grip on House Democrats after several Democrats Pelosi reportedly preferred as ranking members on committees did not succeed.

Pelosi underwent hip surgery in Germany and missed the House committee assignment votes, but she is scheduled to be back at her post where she will have the opportunity to try to influence the Democrat caucus ahead of the Speakership vote in the House.

“I’m on my way to Washington to proudly represent the people of San Francisco in Congress,” she posted a video on X.

“I’m honored to do so, to share our San Francisco values. Thank you for giving me that honor,” she said.

All Democrats are expected to be in the Capitol on Friday for the vote to seat the next Speaker of the House.

Repubs will screw it up per usual.

Will a Nancy Pelosi whacked on painkillers be a kinder, gentler Nancy Pelosi?  Probably not, but she'll be more incoherent.

I'm trying to be more optimistic, but I believe you're correct.

There is nothing kind or gentle about Pelosi to begin with.

 Vicodin with a Vodka chaser is Nancy's drink of choice.

That's the truth!!

But no matter how I (we) despise her, she has had and still has an iron fist on the Dems.

I'm not sure that is good since  I don't think that is what I want a rep that I voted for to cow-tow. But it sure seems to work for the Dems. I wonder, when she is gone, that Hakeem will have the ruthless spirit that Nan has. When Nan is gone it may well make a big dent in Dem power. They have as many "stray cats" as we do.

Excerpt:
Nancy Pelosi’s latest attempt to rally support has backfired spectacularly. In a video shared Thursday, the 84-year-old Congresswoman proudly announced she was en route to Washington, D.C., ready to bring “San Francisco values” to America.

Pelosi, who secured re-election in her San Francisco district with over 73% of the vote, seems unfazed by widespread criticism of the Bay Area’s failing policies. However, the timing and tone of her message struck a nerve with Americans who rejected those very values in the November elections, ushering in a Trump presidency.

P.S. Nobody wants your San Francisco "values."

Isn't it her job to show up for votes?
