Months after running an internal pressure campaign that nudged President Joe Biden out of the 2024 election, former House Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is plotting another ouster within the Democratic Party.
The representative for California’s 11th congressional district—who stepped down as Leader of the House Democratic Caucus last year after two decades—is targeting the top member of her party on the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), the New York Times reported.
Pelosi is among a group of Democrats privately urging 61-year-old Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) to challenge Nadler, 77, for his post. Raskin is thinking about it, though hasn’t made up his mind and must weigh the fact that he and Nadler are friends, congressional colleagues told the Times.
Pelosi’s effort is part of an existential rethink among congressional Democrats, who are concerned their oldest members are not best suited to take on President-elect Donald Trump’s vociferous MAGA allies in Congress.

Isn’t it time for this old hag to give up and retire and maybe enjoy her few remaining years she has left ?
Nancy girl , you are kissing 85 years old. Aren’t you one of the ” oldest members are not best suited to take on President-elect Donald Trump’s vociferous MAGA allies in Congress. ” ?
I’ll be waiting for your response. Make it quick as I am getting older by the minute.
