USA:Nancy Pelosi stands down as leader of US House Democrats
[Nancy Pelosi, who has led Democrats
in the US House of Representatives for almost two decades, has announced she is standing down from the role. The 82-year-old is the most powerful Democrat in Congress and the first woman to serve as speaker of the House. She will continue to represent her California district in the lower chamber of Congress. It comes as Republicans are projected to take back control of the House following the midterm elections.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-63669581 |
I'd never think she was 82 to look at her tbh
|
the 3 top democrats (excluding Biden) are all in their 80's. They have been stifling the progress of many in the party with their stranglehold, so it's not before time

She's been a formidable character.
Good luck to her. |
And I didn't realise Nancy Pelosi was in her 80s either
|
In some ways she looks like she's constantly resisting the urge to crumble away into a pillar of dust and get swept away by a gust of wind ... but really, she could pass for a 60-something.
She's so old that "you could be sixty!" is a compliment :hehe: :joker: |
