I agree with pelosi.
Who cares. It's just an office and she doesn't own it.
You're of course 100% right. It looks like a cheap ploy to me though. McCarthy was not a friend to Democrats and he didn't kick Pelosi out of her office. It looks like either McHenry is trying to earn brownie points with the freedom caucus by beating up on Pelosi or maybe he's kicking her out of her larger office so he can use it as a bargaining chip to garner support for his run on the speakership.
McCarthy seemingly followed the norm of letting the previous speaker keep their office if they wanted. McHenry is pissed at Democrats for helping 8 super crazy Republicans oust his friend as Speaker. Watching McHenry gavel out yesterday's session it was obvious that he is very angry at what happened.
He should probably blame the freedom caucus then. Or hey, maybe even his buddy McCarthy for accepting such an obvious poison pill with the rule change that enabled his ouster.
That's definitely a possibility. I really should go back and watch the vote on YouTube or something. It's obviously a little silly to be upset with Democrats in this scenario. Hey McCarthy can always take consolation in the fact that his name will be in some history book somewhere as long as people are interested in American politics. Ozymandias would be proud.
Her office also has symbolic meaning to the J6er fuckholes because of that famous photo of that douchebag teabagging her stuff.
Ding ding ding!
That's the point.
