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.

    That’s because of 2 main factors: (1) They are almost all owned by large corporations - yes, even the “left learning ones” - and corporate ownership always imparts a right wing bias simply because the people in charge are wealthy and want to only get richer (it’s basic self-interest); and (2) Right-wingers “take the bait” faster and more widely, which translates to more views, more ad revenue, etc. (see #1).
