Pelosi Responds to Speculation She Might Retire in 2022
The Epoch Times ^ | 10-23-21 | Jack Philliphs

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) did not issue a definitive answer about whether she will run for reelection in 2022 while she was being questioned during a Sunday morning interview.

Pelosi, who was first elected to the House in 1986, was asked on CNN’s “State of the Union” if she is planning on running for her congressional seat, which encompasses most of San Francisco.

“Oh, you think I’m going to make an announcement right here and now?” the House speaker said in response.

When pressed again during the CNN interview, Pelosi stated: “Why would I tell you that now?” and added: “Probably, I would have that conversation with my family first, if you don’t mind.”

Previously, Pelosi said that she would not try to make a bid to become the speaker of the House after she was elected to her position again for the fourth time earlier this year. In 2018, she told House Democrats that she would only serve two terms as House speaker, reaffirming that commitment in November of last year.

However, during an interview with MSNBC in June, Pelosi attempted to downplay speculation that she would retire.

I’m unsure why, but the addiction to power is so strong for politicians that they generally die in office.

Eventually it will be a dark and HOT prison that she finds herself in. She has already excommunicated herself with her approval of the killing of babies.

We’ll see what Jesus, the just judge does at the moment of her death.

I think it will be more severe than that. She participated, yea helped instigate a coup. That is a capital offense.

Perhaps the swing of the Grim Reaper’s scythe can persuade the vile, demonic Botoxian to change its mind.

Nancy, sooner or later, a football will bounce in a way you don’t expect it to.

In your case, millions of us pray for that day each day.

Having destroyed any integrity that is left of congress, it looks like her work is finished.

understood

the whole apocalyptic tradition (including Jesus and Paul, etc.) reflected the lack of visible punishment of evil in this life .... at the end times (eschaton), the Divine will intervene on earth and there will be a suitable judgment for the wicked

I think Nancy Pelousy has a great deal to atone for

81, but cosmetic surgery and hair dye aside, the years do not appear to have not been kind.

Yup. Her wealth needs heavy scrutiny, and forfeited to the US treasury along with millions in fines and prison time. Hoping a new Republican House leadership releases ALL tests, emails and commas from this puke and all the democrat conspirators regarding the Russia hoax

Or they’ll punt as usual

“Or they’ll punt as usual”

There’s a 100% chance they’ll do that.

The GOPe isn’t in to heavy scrutiny of RATs, or fining them, imprisoning them, or releasing documentation. GOPe just goes along to get along, ensuring that they’ll be invited to the balls, dinners, etc.

if she is demanding to tell her family first... it would not be due anything else...

if she was running again... she would not need to have a discussion with her family first.

nice back door admission Nancy.

Nope...she will die there.

They will have to pry the gavel from her hands.

She loses the Speaker’s gavel, and she’s gone. You’ll only
see the vapor trail if you pay attention close.

Like Ruth Bader Ginsberg they’ll have to wait for two extra opinions from medical examiners before they can load her into a hearse. “Maybe she’s only sleeping or conning us to get sympathy for the vote in Congress tomorrow.”

I thought Pelosi made a promise not to keep the Speakership more than two terms after 2016.

1) Her fingers were crossed behind her back, so nyah, nyah.

2) We may have picked the wrong week to give up mistrusting politicians when they give their word. As well as giving up drinking.
