Nancy Pelosi on the Decision to Win in 2024
In almost four decades as an elected official, Rep. Nancy Pelosi is arguably the most powerful woman in American politics today. She\u2019s been celebrated as the greatest Speaker the House of Representatives has ever seen and even now, almost two years after she gave up the gavel, Pelosi\u2019s influence within the Democratic party is clear and unchanging.\xa0\nWhen President Biden announced his decision to call off his re-election campaign and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris in his stead, many speculated that Pelosi was behind the decision.\xa0\nKara asks the former Speaker what went on behind the scenes, what role, if any, she played in it, where the sudden and overwhelming support for Harris came from, and how Pelosi has maintained her grip on power in the Democratic party. Pelosi also teases her much-anticipated memoir, The Art of Power, which will be available on August 6, 2024.\xa0\n\nQuestions? Comments?
