(Gary Varvel)<\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nancy Pelosi announced on video that she would not be seeking reelection. Pelosi announced that she enjoyed serving as a voice for her constituents while in Congress. She served as House speaker twice, first from 2007-2011 and then again from 2019-2023. President Donald Trump described the announcement as great for America. Trump also said that he was honored that she impeached him twice and failed both times.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>From Fox News:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;There has been no greater honor for me than to stand on the House floor and say, &#8216;I speak for the people of San Francisco.&#8217; I have truly loved serving as your voice in Congress, and I&#8217;ve always honored the soul of Saint Francisco &#8212; &#8216;Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.&#8217; The anthem of our city,&#8221; Pelosi said in a voiceover.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is why I want you, my fellow San Franciscans to be the first to know I will not be seeking re-election to Congress. With a grateful heart, I look forward to my final year of service as your proud representative as we go forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi has been a power player in U.S. politics for decades, having served as House speaker from 2007 to 2011 and then again from 2019 to 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Her most recent stint in power also saw Pelosi serve as a chief antagonist to President Donald Trump during his first term.<\/p>\n<p>Her constant clashes with the president, including tearing up his State of the Union speech while sitting behind him as he delivered it in 2020, earned her the nickname &#8220;Crazy Nancy&#8221; by the Republican commander-in-chief.<\/p>\n<p>Trump cheered Pelosi&#8217;s announcement in comments to Fox News, &#8220;The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He called her &#8220;evil,&#8221; &#8220;corrupt,&#8221; and &#8220;only focused on bad things for our country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She was rapidly losing control of her party and it was never coming back. I&#8217;m very honored she impeached me twice and failed miserably twice,&#8221; Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi first came to Congress in 1987 after winning a special election to replace the late Rep.
