In honor of Nancy Pelosi and her husband Paul, I made a contribution today to Senator Rafael Warnock's re-election campaign.

It is possible that the end of the current session of Congress might turn out to be Nancy Pelosi's last days as Speaker of the House. If Democrats wind up not holding the house, which, in spite of some good news over the past few days still looks like a possibility, then this last session prior to the holidays might be the last days of her service.

There is no question in my mind that she is one of the best Speakers I've seen in my lifetime. She has had to endure serving during a time when the other side has become increasingly hostile, ramping up hateful rhetoric, personal attacks that have nothing to do with politics, and behaving in a way that discredits their integrity. Speaker Pelosi has always been gracious in her responses. maintaining a professional demeanor in the face of some ridiculous behavior. She distinguished herself with her leadership during the Trump Insurrection, with her personnel choices for two impeachments and the January 6th investigation committee, and in the way she has handled the legislative agenda, party factions and all that goes with it. She will go down in history as one of the best Speakers of the House ever to serve.
