"Here’s a hard truth Republicans don’t want to hear: Nancy Pelosi was a more effective House speaker than any Republican this century," she wrote. "I agree with her on essentially nothing. But she understood something we don’t: No majority is permanent."
The congresswoman wrote that unlike Republicans, when Democrats hold the majority, "they ram through the most progressive policies they can," and "deliver for the coalition that elected them while they are in power."
Continuing her criticism of Congress' dysfunction, Mace maintained that "the current House is restrictive and ineffective," producing "control with barely any results."
She argued that "Republican leadership seems intent on replicating" Pelosi's "model of consolidation" without any of the former House speaker's "bold vision to push through the policies that won us the majority."
Concluding her essay, Mace left Republicans with a stark warning for the upcoming 2026 midterm elections.
"Today Republicans have a governing trifecta: the House, the Senate and the White House. If we fail to pass legislation that permanently secures the border, addresses the affordability crisis, improves health care and restores law and order, we will lose this majority. And we will deserve it," she cautioned.

Duh.
“...with some pretty bad threats to members that didn’t want to follow her.”
That’s how Uncle Sam Rayburn operated: “You gotta go along to get along.”
Sitting on the couch was not a high point.....
I agree 100%.
yup- demoKKKrats approach politics like its a bloodsport....the GOP? they play patty-cakes....
that’s why we love Donald Trump so much- such a contrast in style to the loser GOPe...
True…
But she GOT HER WAY and moved their agenda forward.
We’ve had control since January; 0.0 democrats prosecuted and jailed.
Muslims overrunning Dearborn MI, and on the verge of building a Muzzie-only city in Texas… that’s TEXAS, by the way…
We may have won an election… But the Democrats are winning the war, because our side is not even fighting back
Obviously true.
Trump is only one man, and as soon as he’s gone, it’ll be business as usual, and the destruction of this country will renew at greater speed and with a vengeance.
Takes more than one man; it takes a concerted effort and WILL to fight… neither of which the GOP has.
Trump is the best thing in this country has seen since Reagan… And he’s all alone
Mace is right - Pelosi was far more effective as House Speaker than Mike Johnson, Kevin McCarthy, and the other weak losers the Congressional GOP appoints to the position.
Sure. And if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.

For a few years. Nancy had a lot more.
Who convinced whom to sit together on a sofa to talk about bipartisanship in dealing with climate change?
>>”Senator Grassley clinging to his antiquated ‘Blue Slip’ tradition of letting the opposition help us to choose judicial nominees, comes to my mind.”
True. And let’s face it. Without either a super-majority in the Senate or a willingness of the Republicans to do away with the filibuster, we will continue to be disappointed.
For that matter, even the Democrats under Pelosi faced limitations to what they were able to achieve (thankfully) because of the filibuster. But they won’t make that mistake again if they ever regain control of Congress (especially if it’s this current crop of radicals who are in control of party leadership).
True, actually she was the original gangster.
Most of the others were too much gentlemen and figureheads.
Repukes are like cicadas. Sleep a long time then awaken making a lot of noise.
Excellent description.
But like saying Hitler made trains run on time.
True, but misses the point.
She’s not wrong. Nancy MACE that is.
True. She had a torture chamber for Dems who got out of line.
