      I mean she’s not dem leader anymore. I know she still represents CA as dean . I just find it strange I’ve seen so many articles mentioning her as though she’s still in charge.

      Edit - and now the recent articles claiming Obama wants Biden to step down too, which is supposedly conjecture and hearsay. It all reads like a hit campaign of known democratic leadership names, and it seems really odd how little coverage there is of the various democratic representatives in full support of Biden.

        Obama and Biden are really close friends. If he’s lost Obama’s confidence, that’s a really big deal that absolutely deserves media coverage. Also, Nancy Pelosi has a ton of clout in the Democratic party, that didn’t just disappear when she stepped down from leadership

          She retired as SOTH when Republicans took control after the 2022 midterms. Hakeem Jeffries is the House Minority Leader now.

        Call to authority often a persuasive tool for headline readers.

      She got stocks to trade and how is she supposed to do that without insider knowledge…

      Do you take her for a pleb?
