PELOSI SOON TO RIDE THE ICE FLOE CLOSELY? House Dems sick of Pelosi.

Recriminations are flying over Democrats failing to take the House, with some members airing their grievances in a caucus meeting this week.

• Jeffries told members that “the buck stops with me.”

The bottom line: Some Democrats are clearly frustrated Pelosi isn’t fading into the sunset like she promised when she lost the gavel two years ago.

• “My advice to my fellow Democrats is simple: Follow the leader. Hakeem Jeffries has done a great job,” Pelosi said in 2023.

• “I understand that this is a difficult transition for her, not being the leader, but she is not,” the member of the Congressional Black Caucus told us.

• “She needs to understand what her new role is.”

Flashback: The Democratic Party’s Ice Floe Politics. “The next time a Democratic politician makes an anonymous observation about the age or vigor of a colleague with whom they disagree, be skeptical. The remarks are made to reporters as if in sorrow, but the message is about as subtle as a shiv in the prison yard.”
