Nancy Pelosi won't seek reelection, ending her storied career in the US House

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she won’t seek reelection. The announcement Thursday by the California Democrat brings to a close a storied career that saw her become the first woman to hold that job and arguably the most powerful woman in American politics.

Another reason to celebrate!

Guess she figured she’s already made enough money doing insider trading.

    Considering all of the open corruption during her tenure, I can’t imagine what kind of wild shit she’s about to try with her time left, knowing she won’t need to run for re-election.

    Let’s not prematurely celebrate.

    Naturally. Now that she’s made tens of millions off insider trading, she can go live the rest of whats left of her life in extreme luxury and let the American government collapse.

    She’s a traitor to America and a traitor to humanity.

      I actually think this is why a lot of rich people end up in Congress; it’s because they want to make even more money! This kind of insider trading should be made very very illegal and punishable by prison.

        Prison at the bare minimum. Without more severe consequences, the rats just do it again and again because they go to white-collar prisons where they’re treated with the kiddy gloves.

          Have you ever read House of the Dead by Dostoevsky? It contains a very interesting section which deals with the flogging of prisoners . . .

    Her legacy is corrupt insider trading and blocking any democrat that actually wants to help the working class. Bye Felicia.
