President Donald Trump is reportedly planning to sell the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building in San Francisco, California, a move that has drawn backlash from state Democrats.
According to WABC-TV on Thursday, the Trump administration intends to sell the property named for the former House speaker, along with a building at 50 United Nations Plaza.
The strategy is aimed at cutting maintenance costs while leasing space for federal office workers as needed.
Former California Democratic Representative Jackie Speier stated that the sales do not make sense and claimed without any evidence that the action reflects Trump lashing out at his political rivals.
“It’s another example of how he is coming after Democrats,” she declared. “He’s coming after California, and it’s all about payback.”
She added: “The lease will keep going up and you will end up paying the property taxes of the lessor, whereas you don’t pay federal taxes when you are a federal government.”
The Trump administration may also consider selling the Leo J. Ryan Federal Records Center, named after the former congressman killed in the 1978 Jonestown massacre.
According to WABC-TV, Trump recently issued an executive order targeting the Presidio Trust—a federal agency established in 1996 to manage 1,500 acres of historic parks and properties in San Francisco.
Trump’s order reiterated that “it is the policy of my Administration to dramatically reduce the size of the Federal Government, while increasing its accountability to the American people.”

She’s just looking for a reason to impeach him again!
FUME AWAY.
If they are so worried about it they can always buy it as a state building.
The new owner could keep the name!
These people mostly work from home and only a small percentage of federal buildings are occupied.
They reflexively oppose anything Trump favors.
It’s little enough compared to the total disrespect she showed him and America during that SOTU address.
Maybe he should sell it to someone who wants to turn it into a brothel.
I can’t think of a more fitting building than one named after her.
says jackie speir - it’s all about payback
she’s admitting they’ve done things that need reconciliation
“Dems Fume”
My Bible verse of the day and now this.....it’s gonna be a good day tater.
Turn it into a homeless shelter.
Add the sign on the building to the Trump Presidential Library.
Nasty Nancy the booze hag can buy the property from the feds with her fabulous wealth earned from the stock market. Then she can decide the fate of her building.
Hey Jackie Speir, maybe you forgot one of your party’s favorite slogans “elections have consequences”
I just mentioned this memorable moment to my wife (not a Trump fan) and shut her up. My opinion is they should demo the building on Network TV. In prime time.
I will never forgive that woman for ripping up Trump’s speech that night. And Pence just stood there and watched her do it.
There’s a whole list of federal buildings up for review, and sale. Nancy’s name just happens to be on one of them.
I just read the one in Minneapolis is also on the list.
I might add...it they take the name off of it, prior to the sale, it will probably bring double the price.
Ditto. Name a local gym after Dingy Harry. Not an airport.
