Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday said the newly named interim speaker, GOP Rep. Patrick McHenry of North Carolina, has ordered her to vacate her office in the Capitol building.
She does maintain her regular office in the Cannon House office building.
An email sent from McHenry’s office to Pelosi’s office just after 6 p.m. Tuesday evening that was viewed by CNN, stated, “Going to reassign h-132 for speaker office use. Please vacate the space tomorrow.”
Pelosi said in a statement that she was not in Washington, DC, to immediately move her belongings.
So what do we know about McHenry so far? He’s a petty little bitch.
Calling him a little bitch insults all the great girl Chihuahuas in the world. ;)
You know, I’m tired of this one. Every insult being an insult to blank is getting too predictable here.
How dare you insult blanks in such a manner!
Sure, they don’t have a soul, but they are none the less an asset to the imperium
Everything on the Internet is predictable or boring to someone. Downvote and move on if it’s important to you. My pet peeve is, “tell me you’re X without saying you’re X”
I can’t downvote without downvoting chihuahuas. My hands are tied. But you’re right I’ve devoted over twice the effort I should have with this comment.
You can downvote my comment if you want. I won’t be offended. Authentic conversations are more interesting to me than Internet points. It’s easy to feel good when you’re upvoted a lot and easy to feel bad when you’re downvoted. It’s better to choose to not have an opinion on it either way.
This is my first ever lemmy comment and I just wanted to share how much I enjoyed the wholesomeness of this exchange. A lot. Thank you.

They have to get the article out first for SEO or else some other news source will do actual reporting and become the top result.
Endshitification and the algorithms driving it have ruined so many things… Gotta be the first, no one reads, just need a clicky headline and a couple pictures.
Enshitification implies the mainstream media once had a respectable platform. I honestly can’t think of a time outside of “newspaper” that the mainstream outlets weren’t shitty, especially if we are just talking online. I guess NPR holds strong but they aren’t falling behind or anything. BBC maybe? If it isn’t a complete snooze fest.
now even the newspapers are ass i only trust what i see with my own two eyes i tell ya
Newspapers have always been more or less shitty. Yellow journalism started a whole war in 1898. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_propaganda_of_the_Spanish–American_War
But if they kick her out, whose office are they going to vandalize when the next January 6th happens?
Implying these guys knew where they were going or anyone in the building. Trump is the only one they can reliably identify.
She tried to give the laptop to russians? Why isn’t she in jail for ESPIONAGE?!?!?!?!
They also tried to attack some of the Republicans though. It’s easy to know Pelosi by name even for them and her office must be identified, I bet most wouldn’t be able to tell it’s her if they crossed her on the street.
Pelosi had one of the “hideaway” offices. They’re intentionally kept secret so no name on the door, no open registry of who has what office. The location would need to be leaked by someone in the know.
They’re just going to have so smear poop in every congressional office just in case one is Nancy’s
What an asshole, there is no way 1 day warning is reasonable. Republicans are a bunch of sociopaths.
While she is in California attending a funeral of a longtime colleague.
A fellow Senator, no less.
*Fellow Congressperson
He also doesn’t have the authority. He’s not Speaker of the House. His one and only duty is to chair the meetings to elect a new Speaker.
I agree with pelosi.
Who cares. It’s just an office and she doesn’t own it.
You’re of course 100% right. It looks like a cheap ploy to me though. McCarthy was not a friend to Democrats and he didn’t kick Pelosi out of her office. It looks like either McHenry is trying to earn brownie points with the freedom caucus by beating up on Pelosi or maybe he’s kicking her out of her larger office so he can use it as a bargaining chip to garner support for his run on the speakership.
Ding ding ding!
“Office space doesn’t matter to me, but it seems to be important to them,” she said. “Now that the new Republican Leadership has settled this important matter, let’s hope they get to work on what’s truly important for the American people.”
That’s the point.
If it’s the office with the shit on the desk she should let him have it…
They would eat it if they thought a democrat may have to smell their breath.
