Following McCarthy's ouster, acting Speaker Patrick McHenry ordered Nancy Pelosi to leave the special hideaway office she didn't relinquish following her party's defeat in the 2022 mid-terms. The email notifying Pelosi's office of the order to get out got right to the point, noting that the office will be re-keyed if she doesn't leave.
As one of his first acts as the acting speaker, Rep. Patrick McHenry ordered former Speaker Nancy Pelosi to vacate her Capitol hideaway office by Wednesday, according to an email sent to her office viewed by POLITICO.
“Please vacate the space tomorrow, the room will be re-keyed,” wrote a top aide on the Republican-controlled House Administration Committee. The room was being reassigned by the acting speaker “for speaker office use,” the email said.
Henry is a close ally of McCarthy, and this is almost certainly well-deserved retaliation. According to McCarthy, as part of the passage of the recent 45-day clean continuing resolution, Pelosi had promised to not support Gaetz if a motion to vacate was filed. Instead, the former Democrat Speaker stabbed now former Republican Speaker in the back and actually encouraged her caucus not to save McCarthy. In the end, Democrats joined with a small group of Republicans to end McCarthy's tenure.
The former speaker blasted the eviction in a statement as “a sharp departure from tradition,” adding that she had given former Speaker Dennis Hastert “a significantly larger suite of offices for as long as he wished” during her tenure.

Kick her out with prejudice!!!
Doing the job that McCarthy didn't have to balls to do himself. Goodbye loser.
The link is actually Red State but that doesnt really matter being same company.
The dems are rotten to Republicans. But they hate it when Republicans are firm with them.
Sweet!
The movers may want to be careful with the file cabinet in the south corner. That contains McCarthys spine. She did say she had his back.
Botox blowout in 3,....2,....... That is the funniest thing I’ve heard today! 😂😂😂😂😂😂.Hey nanzi....🖕💃
I think we should pray for them all, that they would choose the next Speaker wisely.
She got an extra 2 years than she could count on. I guess that means nothing.
Office size squabbles are petty stuff.
Gratitude is a foreign concept to Pelosi. She had this space for 2 extra years.
“ Office size squabbles are petty stuff.”

Sometimes they’re SYMBOLIC. I’m guessing the DemocRATS got the message.
Amen. Been praying.
The deal with Pelosi shows how we have do-nothing RINO's as Speaker. RINO's and Rats colluding to stop any substantial conservative legislation. The lesser-of-two evils propagandists help them get elected, then the democrats keep them in power as a backup plan.
The sad story is that there were only about 7 Republicans who don't approve of this Rat-RINO collusion.
I don’t know much about McHenry but this is certainly a mark in his favor.
“a sharp departure from tradition,”
And trying to jail an ex-POTUS to keep him out of the presidential election ISN’T a departure from tradition? Impeachments in his first term? A SECOND ridiculous impeachment? Not allowing Republicans (except the ones she hand-picked) on the January 6 committee? Trying to pack SCOTUS? Add two new states? Ending the filibuster? Trying to kill the electoral college?
Oh, please...she’s going to now hide behind “tradition” to keep a few square feet of office space while she’s been working to destroy every 200 year old tradition that kept us a stable, long-lived country.
Your second act should be to Subpoens the Judge and the AG in the Trumgp civil trial and bring them before congress to explain to the Congress exactly what “Statute of Limitations” means and why they IGNORED THE LAW in an effort to railroad a Private Citizen. Then JAIL them anyway as punishment.
I just like it that we’re bossing them around for a change. Even if it is only office space.
