By Clare Ashcraft, 17 March, 2025
After several weeks of flailing and muddled messaging, the Democratic Party found its voice last week. They saw a clear injustice committed and spoke out powerfully against its perpetrator. They delivered their message with a clarity and forcefulness that had previously been missing, and there’s no question that they inflicted significant political damage on their septuagenarian target. It’s still unclear whether he will survive their attacks. 

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) flew into a rage over President Donald Trump pardoning and commuting some 1,500 Americans who were ensnared by the FBI’s overreach concerning the January 6 riots. It was an action long foreseen, though liberals need something to whine about, as it’s their only crutch regarding the 2024 elections. 

The California liberal took to social media to voice her outrage:

Tonight, the President announced pardons and commutations of sentences for those who violently attacked the Capitol and law enforcement officers on January 6th. 

Well, that was a year, wasn’t it? While no one had a sitting president being booted off his party’s ticket while simultaneously witnessing the greatest political comeback since Grover Cleveland on their bingo card, we can all at least say 2024 didn’t have a dull moment…even when we wanted one.

As we look forward to 2025, let’s check out the background of the mirror one last time and rank the top 5 people who made 2024 a year that no one who lived through it will ever forget. 

Representative Alexandria-Ocasio lost the race to become the next House Oversight Commitee ranking Democrat to Representative Gerry Connolly, a victory for former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is said to have lobbied members to vote for Connolly.

Connolly, 74, defeated Ocasio-Cortez, 35, by a 131-84 margin, according to Politico's Daniella Diaz. Newsweek reached out to Ocasio-Cortez's office for comment via email.

Why It Matters

The professed Catholic denies she has fallen afoul of Catholic teaching on abortion, while the archbishop of San Francisco disagrees. What’s next for the former speaker?

For many Catholics, learning that the Vatican has a file open on former speaker Nancy Pelosi probably isn’t much of a shock. Over the years, the congresswoman has had her differences with the Catholic Church, of which she remains a member. Most notably on abortion.

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was hospitalized for evaluation in Luxembourg after sustaining an injury during a trip with a congressional delegation, her spokesperson said Friday.

It remains unclear what type of injury Pelosi, 84, sustained. Her spokesperson said the California Democrat is “currently receiving excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals.”

President Biden all but admitted he was pushed out of the presidential race by Democratic Party elites and specifically name-dropped former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in his first TV interview since the tectonic news last month.

Biden said that Dems in the House and Senate were worried that he’d drag down their chances of being reelected. He said he believed his reelection bid would face too many distractions if he carried on.

 

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president one day after President Joe Biden dropped out from the 2024 race against former President Donald Trump. NBC News' Chris Jansing reads Pelosi's statement.
