Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday said the newly named interim speaker, GOP Rep. Patrick McHenry of North Carolina, has ordered her to vacate her office in the Capitol building.

She does maintain her regular office in the Cannon House office building.

An email sent from McHenry’s office to Pelosi’s office just after 6 p.m. Tuesday evening that was viewed by CNN, stated, “Going to reassign h-132 for speaker office use. Please vacate the space tomorrow.”

Pelosi said in a statement that she was not in Washington, DC, to immediately move her belongings.

    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.
