With Republicans set to take over the House of Representatives and Democrats slated for leadership elections at the end of the month, outgoing Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's will tell people her plans on Thursday....

....Rumors have suggested that Pelosi would step down from Congress entirely, potentially leaving her extremely left-leaning district in San Francisco to her daughter Christine. ....

[Sacajaweau]

i believe she said she wouldn’t run again when she was elected this time.

[KarlInOhio]

Oh, that Pelosi daughter? What vote does the House need to refuse to seat her? She is a clear and present danger to all members like Democrat Representative Preston Brooks infamous for beating Senator Charles Sumner.

FORMER House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she will spend more time with her gay husband and wonder where her marriage failed.

....Rumors have suggested that Pelosi would step down from Congress entirely, potentially leaving her extremely left-leaning district in San Francisco to her daughter Christine. ....

Does Pelosi have the legal right to name her own successor? I mean it must be some kind of temporary appointment until an election can be held.

[Rummyfan]

Vacancies in the House can only be replaced by special election.

Thanks!

The only “future” for the vile, demonic Botoxian is the return back to its Big Daddy in hell.
And, of course, there’s the worms to feast on the worn-out, decrepit body that it possessed for years.
Hey, Botoxian, for once do a America a real favor and take pedoJoe and Mitch, the Beotch with ya when ya go.....

Is Hakim Jeffries the guy who worried about Guam tipping over?

I hate that Newsome will appoint her daughter. So greasy and corrupt.

[1Old Pro]

Since when are seats inherited?

When American politicians became royalty instead of employees of their voters.

Just remember that these people call Republicans a "threat to Democracy" as they hand their elected positions to their heirs like we are in some sort of monarchy.

I still remember how pissed they were up in Massachusetts when Scott Brown temporarily won the "Kennedy seat" for a cup of coffee a few years back.

[MortMan]

In the house, there has to be an election to fill the seat, IIRC.

Just remember that these people call Republicans a "threat to Democracy" as they hand their elected positions to their heirs like we are in some sort of monarchy.

They are royals, look at their protections, lavish lifestyles' and look at how they are treated. They don't work for us as the framers intended, we work for them.

[Toddsterpatriot]

I hate that Newsome will appoint her daughter.

Governors can appoint senators, not members of the House.

[volunbeer]

No. That was Hank Johnson.

It is all over YouTube

Just search for Hank Johnson and Guam

[Pearls Before Swine]

Oh, thanks for the correction. I remember the event well. I just confused Hank with Hakim, and didn’t double check.

[1Old Pro]

Governors can appoint senators, not members of the House.

That's a relief. I suspect she will clear the field and her daughter will be handed the Democrat line.

[Old Yeller]

Nephew Gavin Newsom can appoint her daughter to replace her, can’t he?

[gr8eman]

Yes...she thinks she’s superior to her San Francisco neighbors because she doesn’t have to step in some mental patient’s poop to get to her front door!

[ridesthemiles]

SHE CANNOT hand seat to daughter.

Special election has to be held for Rep in House.

NOT appointed-—

A Senator CAN be appointed by Governor-—NOT REP. of House
