"... that could pull back the curtain on the party's ideological and generational divides.... A decision by Pelosi to stay will also cause consternation in the caucus, but the party's better-than-expected showing — and her reputation for clapping back at Republicans — gives her a strong case to stay for one more term. Both President Biden and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) have urged her to stay.... A younger generation of leaders — Reps. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) and Pete Aguilar (D-Calif.) — has been patiently waiting in the wings to replace the old trio of Pelosi, [Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.)] and House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.)...."
From "House Dems' calm before the storm" (Axios).
According to The Washington Post, Pelosi will announce her decision this morning at 10 ET and: "Apparently still uncertain on what to do, Pelosi took two versions of her floor speech home with her last night — one in which she steps back from her leadership role and one in which she runs again...."
UPDATE: "Pelosi stepping down as House Democratic leader after 20 years" (Axios).
“Never did I think I’d go from homemaker to House Speaker,” Pelosi said, wearing her Mace of the Republic brooch and a suffragette white suit.

The thing that is true of both parties - the fossilized money grubber insiders - hang on until death. She will die in office.
In the House - The left have AOC on the horizon (yikes, seriously?)
The right? I'm not clear on who would be a star. anyone?
In the senate -
Mitch McConnell will die in office. Shame on you - Kentucky.
Good Grief!
she's a hundred and sixty-five years old!
she's Lost the House
her husband is:
recuperating from a horrible injury.. And/Or a perverted pervert
she's gotten HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of dollars... Somehow
WHAT ON EARTH does she have to live for? Oh wait! i mean
Why wouldn't she enjoy a well earned and well deserved retirement?
Does she think it would further profit the democrat party, for her to stay on?
Does she think it would further profit HER, for her to stay on?
Her husband has had two serious and dangerous instances in the past year. Someone -- God, karma, the universe -- is sending her a message to retire.
Maybe Aguilar can do for San Bernardino all the wonderful things Nancypants did for San Fran.
"Her husband has had two serious and dangerous instances in the past year."
Both involved getting hammered. When the god of thunder pulls out Mjolnir, everything looks like Paul Pelosi.
Kate, I’ll add that both episodes involve the Capital Police who answer to Nancy NOT doing their assigned job in a very conspicuous way, and yet both incidents have a gag on the press asking about their role. How strange. If I was Paul P I’d be very careful next time she leaves town, which is also a coincidental fact in this matter.
Meanwhile, Chuckie Schumer is STILL going with the 2005 lie of 11 million illegals being here. 5 million came in since Biden has been President alone....This is the REPLACEMENT THEORY they claim ISN"T happening, when they are shoving illegals down our throats. The Sanctuary cities and STATES should take them all in. Let the illegal loving Democrats take care of them.

Pelosi controls the money. She can do what she wants.
Just like McConnell.
I just hope the Republicans have the cojones to deny her a ceremonial Lying in State in the Rotunda -- she's done enough lying in Congress -- but they probably won't.
Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Conner retired to care for her husband when he developed dementia. Nancy seems to stay as far away as she can from Paul who, seems as crazy as Biden.
None of these people win without ballot harvesting. Not even in their own primary. Pelosi is not popular or even liked by actual democrat voters. They know she is obviously corrupt.
This is all about keeping outsiders like Trump out of office.
I would say Bernie or AOC but they are obviously bought off and corrupt too.
AOC is a neocon now. Money does crazy shit to corruptable people.
I wish I could say Rand Paul is not and insider. But he is still there and he hasn't really accomplished a whole lot. His money grubbing emails flood my inbox.
For the woman who wields the hammer... mallet... novelty-size gavel, everything, and everyone is a nail.
Many Democrats were as upset that she kept her post last time she lost the majority the way many Republicans are upset now that the Republican leadership are keeping theirs. Neither party gets good marks for accountability.
.
Kurt Schrader is a moderate Democrat from a purple district in Oregon (Ds have a 2% registration advantage). In 2018, after Dems recaptured the House, he was one of a handful in his caucus not to vote for Pelosi as speaker. In 2022 Nancy got her revenge by pouring money into Schrader's primary challenger, Jamie McLeod-Skinner. Skinner lost, flipping the district Red.
This was an unforced error by the Dems.
My ROI on political issues is way yo the positive and today I am wagering that Pelosi decides to step down and leave it to soe new young blood (Jeffries) Pelosi is one of a kind, is 82 her husband was just almost killed, and she is now minority in the House. She has been masterful at counting votes and holding her party together thru brutal times. We HAVE TWO COMPARISONS ONE OF THE BEST EVER IN Pelosi AND ONE OF THE WORST IN McCarthy WHO IS NOT GUARANTEED. I AM LAYING MY LINE AT 3.5-1 she retires although I wish she would hang 1 more session. My ROI is way plus this wagering session, so I'll see if my handicapping the issues holds up. Republicans have no one in her abilities in that chaotic area. Trump still owns all the repubs,they will eventually have to fall in place as no one is taking him out in that weak group.(and they'll lose again as trump has proven to be a chronic loser.
Tits up is the only way she goes even if that scenario defies the laws of physics and gerontology…
What? No post complaining about how long Pelosi has stuck around?

(I gasp and laugh) - "Both involved getting hammered." That is Chappell level funny. hahahahaha.
Yeah - guess what - mocking the left is funny. Even though there will soon be laws making it illegal.
Ha! Eleven Million! Just like the first time I paid attention to illegal immigration in 1983.
I was listening to KFI yesterday afternoon and the news reader read eleven million out over the airwaves. I laughed really hard.

People keep saying it is just the democrats harvesting ballots. This is wrong.
The GOPe is involved in this too and they are heavily invested in being the minority party representatives.
They are part of the corrupt globalist uniparty that is deceiving this country.
Nobody likes Pelosi. Nobody, not even democrat voters, would vote for her given the chance at an alternative.
Jeffries about to be next Minority Leade
LOL - Nancy needs an excuse to stay out of the house.
While the B is away - the old farts will play. San Fransisco is quite the playground.
She is a piece of work. I had to turn the channel because I can't stand her grandstanding lies. I hope she is gone for good. Stay in California and leave us the hell alone.
Nancy Pelosi: “I Will Not Seek Reelection To Democratic Leadership In The Next Congress”
Pelosi stepping down but not quitting Congress.

That's just good. Too bad I was drinking coffee.
Why should she quit. She's the epicenter of graft.
Adios, Nan! Go hammer your husband…
Don't let the door kick you in the ass!!! See ya!! Don't come back now, ya hear??
Saw her about 25 years ago at a function.
M-fer she may be, but she was hot, a little firecracker.
But of course, those things don't matter in politics.
Reports are Pelosi has just given up the leadership position.
HUGE win. HUGE. Even after the bullshit hammer attack.
Thank you Donald J. Trump.

Yup. Exactly right. And if you can't see it 1) you don't want to see it or, 2) you're completely blind.
"Never did I think I’d go from homemaker to House Speaker"
She had her picture took with President Kennedy before she was married.
Now, she will have time to share her new cans with her husband.
Oh, wait! He bangs boys.
She was certainly a force to be reckoned with.
A younger generation of leaders... Katherine Clark (D-Mass.)
I live here and I have never heard of her - not much of a "leader."
Someone needs to push her down the Capitol steps, like the end of Death Becomes Her movie.
