- NEW: some 🔥🔥🔥 from @SpeakerPelosi ahead of Trump's first visit to Capitol Hill since he unleashed an insurrection on January 6th
- .@SpeakerPelosi spoke on the record for 45 minutes & pushed back on the shaky assertions in this piece. Out of all 3000 words, her positive stories about @POTUS weren't quoted once. Apparently the word of a former Speaker is only fit to print if he's a Republican with an agenda.
- for what it’s worth — @brianschatz and @chrismurphyct regularly do better than that from their couches
- Speaker Pelosi and her family are deeply grateful for the outpouring of prayers and warm wishes for Mr. Pelosi from so many across the country during this difficult time. Full statement from Speaker Pelosi's office on today's verdict below.
- NEWS here -- The House has finished voting, and @SpeakerPelosi will accompany Senator Feinstein on her final journey home to San Francisco.NEWS - Rep. Nancy Pelosi will accompany the body of late Sen. Dianne Feinstein back to California on a U.S. military plane Saturday following a House vote passing a stopgap funding patch. w/ @juliakmarsh politico.com/news/2023/09/3…
- Is that why you came all the way over to her Speaker's Office to take this photo with her?I’m proud to have helped end Nancy Pelosi’s reign as Speaker of the House. Enjoy her endorsement @MondaireJones — it didn’t help you when you ran in New York City last year and it won’t help you in the Hudson Valley next year.
00:00 - Old enough to remember Speaker McCarthy promising 72 hours to read a bill before it comes to the Floor🚨🚨NEW -- The House's 45-day CR --- 71 pages On the floor now Vote in the next hour or so punchbowl.news/45-day-cr/ w @bresreports
- Some personal news — wrapping up my first week as deputy speechwriter for @SpeakerPelosi. We have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get our country back on track. From crushing COVID to creating jobs to defending democracy, House Dems are leading the way. Proud to be in the fight.
- worth a listen — Jen is an American heroWhat happened, in her own words. Listen to Biden-Harris campaign manager @jomalleydillon talk battleground states, running a campaign in a pandemic and the electoral college going forward. You won’t be disappointed. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cam…
- Sadly, Speaker Pelosi is grieving the loss of her dear friend Dianne Feinstein and will remain in San Francisco for the next few days to participate in official memorials and pay tribute to Feinstein’s towering legacy. She is very saddened not to be there for this historic vote.The Speaker of the House is chosen by the Majority Party. In this Congress, it is the responsibility of House Republicans to choose a nominee & elect the Speaker on the Floor. At this time there is no justification for a departure from this tradition. The House will be in order.
To a crowd of less than ten R representatives, Kevin McCarthy delivers his final speech on the House floor. “I know the potential of this nation, I’m so grateful to be given the opportunity to serve. Though I may be leaving, I won’t stop serving,” he said.- *at a live music show* SINGER: “my first song is about reconciliation” ME, a Hill staffer: *audibly groans, attracts stares* SINGER, a normal person: *sings a regular love song* ME: “lol oops my bad”
