engineered by her, in passage, we expect today of the big spending bill that includes the initiatives, the electoral count reform act, which is important and with the january 6th committee, which is a singular creation of nancy pelosi, and i think she was kind of reveling this that yesterday in a way that we rarely see her do in public. yeah, and david, the thing about nancy pelosi that i always was so impressed by, i must say that i wasn t sure would be the case when she was speaker because you really never know how somebody is going to handle that position. it is i think it is a dismal job if you re not on top of things. but the thing i learned very quickly with nancy when she was a speaker was if the bill went to the floor, it was going to pass. when newt gingrich would bring a bill to the floor, half the time
60s. she s done a lot with a little. a historic speaker, wouldn t you say. she was a great speaker, i think. she was a combination of being a disciplined vote counter in the way you described. she wouldn t bring a piece of legislation up unless she was pretty confident she had it locked. she also had a big heart. she always surprised me in conversations about the things she would talk about, the breadth of her interest. she once told me about her father, and his struggle when no one would pay attention to the flight of jews in europe, trying to wake up the state department and expressed interest and she sent me the next day all of the transcripts, the congressional records from 1943 about her father and her father s mission to try to save these jewish refugees in desperate situations, and in the

rights issues especially as it pertained to china. and nancy pelosi had her last press conference as speaker and she talked about passing it along, passing her legacy along to the next generation of leaders in the democratic party. take a look. my goal and my wish is that the members, our new leadership in the house, based on the foundation that we have laid or forming their own approach will do even better than the significant legislative successes that i have had as speaker of the house. and, you know, here s the thing about nancy pelosi, susan, that the haters don t recognize. people on the far right, the trump right, have always vilified her, and they ve hated her with such intensity that they don t recognize that she
families, that we need to win the law. this, i believe, because our daughters health are at risk. we don t want our daughters to get uterine cancer and have to have a total hysterectomy, like jenny mitchell, and go into menopause before the age of 30. we believe that this is a public health crisis. if it was your daughter, wouldn t you say, let s make sure that we address this? let s not have any of our little girls use any more of these chemical relax years. because we believe, based on the science, there is a direct and proximate cause that, 2 to 1, they have a stronger chance of being diagnosed with uterine cancer. and i don t care about this european standard of beauty. our black girls are beautiful enough without having to try to
