Even so, what a dick move to deprive an 84-year-old former Speaker of the convenience of an office space (presumably) near the House floor. He probably thinks it’s funny to make her walk farther to get back to her primary office.

Wow.

“Look the deal is that the office that Pelosi is in right now is the office of the preceding speaker. Speaker Pelosi and other Democrats determined that they wanted a new … speaker, and it’s Kevin McCarthy. So, he’s getting the office,” he said. . . .
Graves then put the blame on Democrats for voting McCarthy out of office.
“I don’t know what they’re complaining about,” Graves said. “They created this situation.”

Do they really think anyone who consumes any real news believes that?

I’m sure it was a message intended for their Fox News/Newsmax/Truth Social-reading base so they can make it sound like Pelosi is complaining that they’re following some kind of normal protocol instead of breaking precedent to single her out.

True. Not sure it will work. Which is worse to their base: GOP house leadership falling apart or GOP house leadership getting manipulated and then owned by Democratic minority?

Before this term is over, there will likely be a plethora of newly former Speakers of the House all demanding offices. McCarthy may be the first but he won’t last.

The original news was that she has to had over her hideaway office. Not her regular office. The hideaway office is a real thing: Hideaway (U.S. Senate) - Wikipedia
She would be back in Washington if it were her real office.
Its assholery nevertheless, but only marginal.
Just FYI.

Oh, that’s okay then… /s

How is breaking with generations of tradition to evict an elder stateswoman from her long-allocated personal space out of spite while she’s attending the funeral of a friend “only marginal” assholery?

Now you’re making an unfounded accusation against Pelosi by claiming she would ditch her longtime friend and colleague Dianne Feinstein’s funeral to defend her office space. GTFO with that garbage, Pelosi isn’t the bad guy here.
