Democrats Give Nancy Pelosi Arrogant New Title As House Committee Anoints Her ‘Speaker Emerita’

The House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee gave outgoing Speaker Nancy Pelosi an arrogant new title and unanimously voted to anoint Pelosi as ‘Speaker Emerita.’

House Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries said Pelosi is the “most consequential Speaker in American history” and that the honorific title “reflects Speaker Pelosi’s lifetime of service as a legendary legislator, notorious negotiator, and a fabulous facilitator.”

Dem Rep Eric Swalwell said: “It was an honor as Co-Chair of the Democratic Steering & Policy Committee to confer upon @SpeakerPelosi the honorific title of Speaker Emerita. She is the most consequential legislator Congress has ever known and we are lucky she will remain in our ranks.”

House Democrats will be the minority party in the House after January. They will vote Wednesday on a new leadership slate with Jeffries expected to be chosen as the new House leader for the Dems.

McCarthy and GOP RINOS will work with Queen Pelosi to pass anti-American bill. Chuckie and Mitch will screw us on the Senate side too.

This fancy naming thing is sure to be popular. What do you suppose Hakeem will choose for himself? Speaker Africanus? Maximus? Tenebris or Stultus would be more appropriate.

This gives me an idea. Back in the 3rd grade I was elected Hall Monitor. But I lost re-election the next year.

I shall now refer to myself as a Hall Monitor Emeritus.

That’s bastardized Latin. Latin only has 3 genders: male, female, and neuter. Considering her power has been neutered, emeritum fits.

“Speaker Dementia” would also be fitting.

Politicians are so revolting! Any decent person would be in a perpetual state of emesis in Washington. No wonder it's populated by the indecent.

Always remember the immortal words of Bess Truman: "Harry, I don't want to spend one minute longer in this town than I have to."

Or of Harry: "If you need a friend in Washington, get a dog."

And these Washington politicians are the people to whom Americans entrust their own welfare? No wonder the nation is in such a mess!

Seems to me it should be Emeritx.

This was the Congress that voted for rules that everything would be non-gendered, so seems fitting.
