nancy pelosi, class act to the end. maybe one of her first acts will be to help transition leadership from the old to the new and finding a way for them to kind of be woven together in a respectful way. >> joining me now is democratic senator ben luhan of new mexico. i want to ask you about nancy pelosi and her legacy and your reaction to her decision. >> it was an emotional moment on the floor of the united states capitol. i was honored to join my house colleagues in being there for this historical moment. i certainly appreciate everything that the speaker has done from the very beginning, from organizing around san francisco and california to joining the united states house of representatives with clear goals to make things better for her constituents. she accomplished each and every one of them. to earning support, to becoming a member of the house leadership and being elected speaker twice. it was very special for me having the honor to be appointed by her to serve at the democratic congressional campaign committee

what we are seeing is the exact opposite of nancy pelosi. nancy pelosi had a core, a moral core. there are things she believes in and wants to -- legislatively wants to do. what we are seeing with kevin mccarthy, minority leader, for the moment is someone who is just about the power, getting that speaker's gavel and will trade away pretty much anything to get that gavel. the american people, i'm old enough to remember republicans running on crime, inflation, the economy is falling to pieces and instead we got that. >> what i'm confused about is i thought the midterms taught the republicans that -- i'll say it slowly for you in the house. speak really slowly. make sure that you understand completely what is being said here. it appears the american people don't like insurrections. what's an insurrections? what happened at the capitol on january 6th. when the people were listening to president trump who told them to rush the capitol, to go get 'em, bring that noose and everything else they brought. the zip ties. remember the zip ties? remember the pooh pooh or whatever it is they di

many republican house members did not attend a speaker nancy pelosi's speech today. some of them had a press conference of their own, announcing that the single most important thing on the house republican agenda next year will not be republican legislative plan to control inflation, will not be a republican plan to control crime, and it will not be a republican legislative plan to do any saying. there is no plan of legislation. the number one agenda item announced by house republicans today is investigating hunter biden, who has never had anything to do with the governance of the united states of america. there is much more to be said about what needs to be done in the house of representatives before republicans take over. our guests will be saying that, in a moment. and there is much more that needs to be said about nancy pelosi service to her san francisco constituents and to the country. as the speaker of the house of representatives. but now, tonight, is the moment for us all to do what kevin mccarthy refused to do today and listen to the honorable nancy pelosi.

i introduce thoerd nancy pelosi. i said to my daughter, alexa, that is nancy pelosi. she is our whip. if you don't do what she wants, she has a whip. and nancy got down on her knees at the level of my daughter and said, don't tell her. that don't tell her that. and she took my daughter's hand and said it's a candy whip. i thought to myself, it is not a gift. she could be really tough as donald trump found out, as anyone who ever tried to cross her found out. and most importantly, she is and has been utterly tenacious in defending our democracy at its most vulnerable hour. and tenacious in defending her constituents in california, people around the country and particularly children who are her real love and passion. >> as republicans are going to be in control of congress and laid out the priorities, it is the fabrication of conspiracy theories, what do you -- how you are thinking about next two years ahead? what can democrats do? how should house democrats be thinking of their power at this moment? >> you know, one reason i was really hoping that speaker pelosi would

not as well known nationally as nancy pelosi. is that an asset or liability in the sense that she was so polarizing, if you were watching ads in the past campaign you saw as much of nancy pelosi as the other democratic candidates. hakeem jeffries has to introduce himself to the country. >> he will. you can very much expect republicans to dry to define him for the country and replace ads targeting nancy pelosi as ads showing him as the scary leader of the democrats who want to take over and take your rights away and whatnot. i would not be surprised if we see that coming, it does help mr. jefferies that he is a very strong communicator, he has a long history of being able to communicate an effective message on behalf of the democrats in congress. i wouldn't be surprised if he continues that message and makes sure that his message is able to move forward and not the message that republicans want to assign to him and ascribe to him and try to make him into something that he is not. >> that is a key point because jeff jefferies is go

i introduced her to nancy pelosi and i said to our daughter, alexa this is our nancy pelosi she's our whip, and if you don't do what she wants, she has a wig. nancy got down on her knees at the level of my daughter and said, don't tell or that, don't tell her that! and she took my daughter's hands and said, it's a candy wig, it's a candy whip! and i thought to myself, it is not a candy wig! she could be really tough as donald trump found out, as anyone who's ever cried tried to cross or found out. and most importantly, she is and has been utterly tenacious and defending our democracy at its most vulnerable hour. and tenacious in defending her constant constituents in california, people around the country and particularly children who are her real love and passion. >> congressman, as nancy pelosi exits her leadership role. she staying in congress but it's kevin mccarthy appears to take up the cattle and republicans will control the congress, they've outlined their priorities and put that in quotes. the priorities are largely the fabrication of conspiracy theories. how are you looked th

expect house speaker nancy pelosi, ending her historic run in that role. where congress goes from here. to can starbucks workers, on strike , and dozens of locations. and they picked quite an interesting time to make their point. what they demand from the giant of coffee. >> i'm just trying to donate it. >>> your community station with the story come this young man saw a problem and found a way to help out. how he is enlisting his community to keeping the music going. good afternoon, everybody, i'm reed cowan. let's start with this big news. longtime house speaker nancy pelosi says she will step down from her leadership role, however she still plans to serve in congress. cbs reporter skyler henry has an update for the bay area that hits the area hard. >> a, reed, good to be with you. the speaker said that she will remain in her house seat, but also pointed out that it's important to focus on the future of the democratic party , and she wasn't the only long serving member of congress to echo that sentiment pick meanwhile the republicans have signaled with t

well, as nancy pelosi. is nancy pelosi _ our lives. well, as nancy pelosi. is nancy pelosi lists - our lives. well, as nancy pelosi. is nancy pelosi lists her - is nancy pelosi lists her sizeable family, let's pull away from the scenes on capitol hill and reflect on what has been said. an extraordinarily well—known figure in us politics, nancy pelosi, speaker of the us house of representatives, confirming she will not seek re—election as speaker of the house. this follows on from the results of the midterms, of course. let's get the midterms, of course. let's get the thoughts of our correspondent in washington. several standing ovations already, and just a reminder of what a very well known figure she is in us political circles. ~ , , , circles. absolutely, she is the hi . hest circles. absolutely, she is the highest ranking _ circles. absolutely, she is the highest ranking woman - circles. absolutely, she is the highest ranking woman to - circles. absolutely, she is the highest ranking woman to say circles. absolutely, she is the i highest ranking woman

if you want to run against nancy pelosi, move back to san francisco and run against nancy pelosi. you're running against me. i put the natural gas provision in the inflation reduction act. i was the one who made sure we had all of the investments in electric vehicles in the inflation reduction act. do you not see what's happening at lordstown? we have four vehicles out there, a truck two cars, and a tractor. , we have a battery plant across the street that was $2.3 billion investment. this is the future for us, j.d., and i know you're not here a lot, but what we've been working on in this community and in ohio are the jobs of the future and the inflation -- we saw a stream of investments directly after the inflation reduction act. solar, gas, batteries, electric vehicles, honda, ford, big companies investing into communities like ours. foxcon has four cars out there. i don't know how much clearer this could be, but this has been a good thing. if we don't do it, you know who's going to dominate these industries? china, and we can't have it. mr. vance: let me just address that here.

no one knows what nancy pelosi is going to do. but this is going to be an epic moment for the democratic party. they have not known a leadership without democratic nancy pelosi leading them. and you know, for them it's been a really, really difficult time leading up into these midterms. they haven't known what the midterm result was going to be. and it ended up being a stronger showing for them. there is a sense that if nancy pelosi wanted to stay she could stay. but at the same time there's a lot of generational thirst for change. and you know, there could be other people that step up to the plate. hakim jeffries, i'm told, is likely to run for the top spot if nancy pelosi doesn't. i talked to a member just now who said hakim is prepared for the moment, should it come. so just a lot of anticipation right now. >> melanie, the speaker of the house, nancy pelosi, on the floor. >> madam speaker, as we gather here, we stand on sacred ground. the chamber of the united states house of representatives. the heart of american democracy. i

he voted with nancy pelosi 100% of the time. just a couple of weeks ago, he voted against allowing for more oversight and more review on disasters -- the disastrous afghanistan pole. he said one thing, and when you are watching, he votes the other way. he follows joe biden's and nancy pelosi's lead 100% of the time. because he follows their lead again and again, even though he was warned not to do so, he is directly responsible, tom malinowski, is for the high inflation, he's not solved the problems people sent him down there to solve. that is why he's going to lose this race in november, focusing too much on people who are in d.c. and not enough on the people he's supposed to -- were supposed to be his constituents. >> i want to do a follow-up on that. congressman, whether democrats are in the majority or the minority, is it time for nancy pelosi to step aside for someone else? rep. malinowski: i actually think that is a moot question, because she did promise in 2018 she would serve two terms, and that is done now. i don't expe

if you want to run against nancy pelosi, move back to san francisco and run against nancy pelosi. you're running against me. i put the natural gas provision in the inflation reduction act. i was the one who made sure we had all of the investments in electric vehicles in the inflation reduction act. do you not see what's happening at lordstown? we have four vehicles out there, a truck two cars, and a tractor. , we have a battery plant across the street that was $2.3 billion investment. this is the future for us, j.d., and i know you're not here a lot, but what we've been working on in this community and in ohio are the jobs of the future and the inflation -- we saw a stream of investments directly after the inflation reduction act. solar, gas, batteries, electric vehicles, honda, ford, big companies investing into communities like ours. foxcon has four cars out there. i don't know how much clearer this could be, but this has been a good thing. if we don't do it, you know who's going to dominate these industries? china, and we can't have it. mr. vance: let me just address that here.

i very much disagree about nancy pelosi. i think in the beginning of her career so to speak in the white house, she was a totally different woman. over the years in the last decade she has done nothing but think of herself and bring our country down. nothing has gone right. the fact that people keep talking about president trump and what happened at the white house with this insurrection. she did not do what she should have done to protect it. she did not give him the military he asked for. she went along with everything that the democrats wanted. all of the bills she said president trump would not sign because of republicans, the majority of them did not sign was because of all of the extra crap that was in them. they were given thousands of pages to read the night before that they were going to go and vote on bills. just because she is a woman or because somebody is a man does not make them right, to have a position, whether it is high or it is low. you have to be the one who has intelligence for it and you have to know wh

it reveals the plans to hold nancy pelosi hostage and if she lied, he was going to break her kneecaps. hours ago, san francisco's d.a. called the attack politically motivated and confirmed that there was no security present when the suspect allegedly confronted paul pelosi in his bedroom. kpix loren thomas is outside of the d.a. office with more information first. >> reporter: k, julia. facing 13 years to life in prison after being charged with state and federal crimes related to this attack on paul pelosi, but the details released by it and the department of justice revealed some of the more chilling and politically motivated details of this attack. >> reporter: federal complaint filed monday pains a shocking picture of what unfolded of the paul and nancy pelosi on the morning of october 28. all directed at the house speaker. >> this house and the speaker herself or specifically targets of the defendant. >> reporter: depape told officers that he viewed nancy pelosi and his words as the leader of the pack of lies told by the democratic party. he said he intended to hold the house spea

by 2014, 13% of all republican ads in house races mentioned nancy pelosi. in 2016, when hillary clinton became the main republican villain, dylan pelosi was only 9% of house ads, by 2018, with clinton and obama not not in the spotlight, nancy pelosi was in a whopping 34% of republican house ads. this, year republicans spent more money on ads the demonize nancy pelosi that they have spent on ads about immigration. the things republicans but the most money on attacking, taxes, joe biden, inflation, crime, and nancy pelosi. at the same, time in the past two years, five people, five of them, have been arrested for how seriously they have threatened speaker pelosi. today, the man accused of breaking into speaker pelosi's home and assaulting her husband with a hammer, david depape was a raid in san francisco county superior court. he entered a plea of not guilty. according to the federal complaint, depape told responding officers he planned to hold nancy hostage and talk to her. he said if nancy were to tell the truth, he would let her go. and if she lied, he was

nancy pelosi has been in the congress since 108th congress. republicans have gone through five speakers in that time? that's extraordinary. >> and how she maintains the po discipline. instilling fear among the members. this will be a different democratic leadership. jeffries is much more message disciplined than the speaker was. she had the inside game like nobody else on capitol hill. he has to develop that and does have a lot of support within the caucus. this is the minority. being the house minority you are an opposition force. not trying to put together an agenda and keep the caucus together. he has the advantage of a democratic senate to stop bills and the house republicans pass. a democrat in the house to veto bills so he has -- this is a learning experience and not as much responsibility. >> pelosi is staying on in the congress which i guess some people interpreted as a c condescension. she is a lightning rod on the right and a hero on the left. with her being gone republicans don't have anybody -- maybe still vilify her but jeffries i

nancy pelosi: thank you mr. paul loan. he demonstrates the knowledge that was brought to bear in writing this legislation. everyone was at the table. environmentalist, environmentalist in labor, concerned scientists, farmers, venture capitalists, you name it , everyone was at the table so we had full knowledge of the ramification of one aspect or another of the legislation. everything that is in the report is not on the bill. what is in the bill is so powerful thanks to the leadership of the chair of the ways and means committee, richie nail. mr. neil: i can testify to the greatness of the speaker. you will frequently watch speakers in the house will save the world is watching. well the world was watching and is watching and universally watching the legislation we wrote. we use incentives constructed in the policy to seek certain outcomes and we heard from john kerry, pop more, we heard from foreign leaders across the board that america spoke. what is striking about these 370 billion worth of tax incentives is that it addr

nancy pelosi looked at everything. she had the baltimore toughness and the northern california diplomacy and charm and put them altogether in a package that no one had ever seen. lyanne: in 2006, she teamed up with others in her party to present a new political platform called a new direction in america, a strategy that would help democrats regain control of congress. they did, and it was obvious that the person guiding them had to be a woman. in 2007, pelosi became the speaker of the house. pelosi knew it was a turning point for those who lacked a voice in politics. >> she said about making a big to do about it, do have women run for public office. she also saw that people of color are needed to be in public office. lyanne: in 2019, when then president barack obama was about to give up on the affordable care act, it was speaker pelosi who convinced him to not give up. it passed through congress. >> she knows what she stands for. she has never had to be told or led around by the nose by anybody else. speaker pelosi: do

none of this happens without nancy pelosi. and do you know what, nancy pelosi was even in congress back in the days when they repealed the combat exclusion law which actually allowed me to have a job as a fighter pilot for 20 years. i mean, she was a part of that. that is how long she has been in congress and how effective she has been for women and for veterans. >> and a reminder, she ain't leaving. charles, as promised, the republicans are now saying that they are gonna go hard after hunter biden. here is what i don't get, how did they, congress, go after hunter biden. if there is something to go after, isn't that a legal issue that the doj would handle? >> of course it is, and when you are talking about republicans in this instance, before you talk about going after them in a court of law, you have to talk about the court of public opinion. and in this case, it clearly seems that republicans continue to remain tone deaf, even after underperforming during the midterm elections. they still don't get it. so they are going afte

pelosi or hakeem jeffriess. >> and they've long had nancy pelosi as a bogeyman, so how are they going to craft this new young african american as their new bogey man? only time will tell. i'm sure they're working on that. this is a new era. and she is not abandoning it. she had the opportunity, the white house left the position open for her to go be ambassador to italy. she knows her way around that wine cellar. she has been there many times and she is determined to stay on and i think it is a very noble thing. >> thank you very much. >>> joining me now the founder of country over party, and political contributor, matthew dowd and also with me is former obama white house press secretary, and msnbc political analyst, robert gibbs. >> so matthew, look, it is an understatement to say this is, it was a hugely impactful and historic speakership. talk to us about the legacy nancy pelosi leaves behind and the shoes frankly that need to be filled. >> yes, heels, that probably are going to be very difficult to fill. i mean i agree with the president. she's the most consequential effective spea

we know that 82-year-old nancy pelosi would have fought off this attack are every bit as much as her husband did, and we know what the assassin was going to do with that hammer, if nancy pelosi had been home, and he if he was struggling with her over that hammer. and you know there would've been a struggle, because this is who nancy pelosi is. >> we sort of said, we've dissuaded him from coming to capitol hill. they said we don't have the resources production here, so the moment he is not coming, -- >> i think i'm gonna punch him out, i've been waiting for this, fake trespassing a couple rows, i'm gonna punch him out, i'm gonna go to jail, i'm gonna be happy. >> if that trump supporter who broke into nancy pelosi's home, had come at the speaker of the house with a hammer, he was gonna have a fight on his hands. and he was going to try to fracture her skull, he was going to try to murder her which is exactly what he is now accused of doing to nancy pelosi's husband david depape is facing state charges, of attempted murder, and assault with a deadly weapon, along with other state charg

none of this happens without nancy pelosi. and do you know what, nancy pelosi was even in congress back in the days when they repealed the combat exclusion law which actually allowed me to have a job as a fighter pilot for 20 years. i mean, she was a part of she hr veterans. >> and a reminder, she ain't leaving. charles, as promised, the republicans are now saying that they are gonna go hard after hunter biden. here is what i don't get, how did they, congress, go after hunter biden. if there is something to go after, isn't that a legal issue that the doj would handle? >> of course it is, and when you are talking about republicans in this instance, before you talk about going after them in a court of law, you have to talk about the court of public opinion. and in this case, it clearly seems that republicans continue to remain tone deaf, even after underperforming during the midterm elections. they still don't get it. so they are going after hunter biden because they think this is gonna be profitable in terms of fundraising, it

>> nancy pelosi stepping down as the top house democrat, but, staying on in congress to represent the bay area. >> no one has been more effective, no one has been more confidential. >> reporter: new reflectance on her legacy from colleagues, and what we have learned about the lawmaker who could make history, succeeding her. >>> spooked by tech layoffs, bay area college students anxious about getting and keeping a job. >> it's very scary. i think that is your searching, i might be laid off anytime. >> first and foremost, don't panic. >> how to make yourself stand out in a tough time for tech. >> i am probably the first one in my family to have a stroke. so, it was definitely a freak accident. >> reporter: he had a rare stroke at just 20 years old. his remarkable journey to get back on his feet. >>> this is cbs news bay area, with juliette goodrich. >> the end of an era in congress, nancy pelosi stepped aside as democratic leader of the house after two decades in the role. pelosi's decision comes after a narrow election which cost democrats their majority. but, she will remain in congre

with you, your family and nancy pelosi swearing you in. i'm sure you remember that day well all these years later. what was it like looking back? >> well, again, it was a remarkable moment, right? that photograph was taken just on the verge of having the country's first african american president with a female speaker of the house, with the need to repair the devastation -- 2008 feels like a long time ago. 2009. but the devastation that had been visited on the american people by the meltdown in the financial markets. and so it was both hopeful and a sense of mission. and you know, a lot of confidence that nancy pelosi in concert with the president of the united states was the person to lead that mission. >> we're learning right now, congressman, that your colleague hakeem jeffries is likely to run unopposed for democratic leader in the new house. what do you want to see from your party's leadership moving forward? >> well, not an unexpected development as you know, wolf. hakeem has been quietly and respectfully sort of positioning himself

the person most was nancy pelosi. at the end of the day she realized even though we're in a financial crisis, even though it's clear democrats are gonna have a horrible election, we just had to enroll, so even in a neutral environment we're gonna give a lot back. she saw this was an opportunity, really, once in a generation. it had been 100 years. she deserves enormous credit for that because there was such opposition to that. it was, yes, the itty-bitty bill. a lot of people wanted no bill at all. and she put that on her back. >> she did. in the accounts of, that i saw that up close, i will never forget trying to remember that day, the morning after the brown election. progressive members, were dead, it's dead. here's the other thing that i note about her. managing the caucus. i thought this reporting that came out in the book about the two impeachments, about how she tried to manage that, and she was caught between progressives who wanted to leave no stone unturned by pursuing potential multiple crimes by trump, hus

demonized nancy pelosi. she's been a top target of republicans, from rush limbaugh's attacks on her, to the fire pelosi campaign of the obama years, to this election season, where republicans have spent some $40 million on ads mentioning pelosi by name, just since labor day. some of the attack ads are especially dehumanizing. >> we call that bull nancy pelosi. she's a beast. >> i know how to handle nancy pelosi and stop her [ bleep ]. and i'll put a boot right in her socialist platform. >> madam speaker, tear down this wall. >> with just seven days until election day, our democracy frankly feels vulnerable. something many americans are desperate to save, while others taint it with conspiracy theories and hateful political theater. along with open displays of racism, misogyny, and anti-semitism. but even before the years-long campaign to eliminate nancy pelosi, my next guest spent much of her adult life as a hate object of the right. >> there's got to be some down side to having a woman president, right? some

>>> meanwhile, today speaker nancy pelosi announced she is step do you think as the house democratic leader. pelosi, who's 82, said it's time for a new generation to lead. and biden was like to, oh, okay, nancy. take her home. take her home. so funny. >> it is the top of the fourth hour of "morning joe," and there's a live look at san francisco for you this morning. we've got a lot to cover this hour as the new era is taking shape in washington. the top two democrats in the house, speaker pelosi and majority leader steny hoyer announcing they will not seek leadership positions in the new congress. we're going to speak with the majority leader about his to decision and the future of the democratic party. >>> also this hour, we're following a new wave of resignations at twitter after employees reject and demand -- the demand from elon musk to commit a, quote, hardcore work environment, to commit to that environment. and the question this morning is, will the social media company survive its new ceo? he seems to keep missing it, like he keeps making more and more mistakes, spending more

by 2014, 13% of all republican house ads mentioned nancy pelosi. in 2016, when hillary clinton became the main public villain, pelosi was only 9% of house ads. by 2018 by clinton and obama no longer in the spotlight, nancy pelosi was in a whopping 34% of republican house ads. this year, republicans have spent more money on ads that demonize nancy pelosi it than they have spend about ads on immigration. the things that republicans have spent money on, taxes, joe biden, inflation, crime and nancy pelosi. at the same time, in the past two years, five people, five of them, have been arrested for how seriously they have threatened speaker pelosi. today, the man accused of breaking into speaker pelosi's home and assault pelosi was a hammer david depape was arranged in the san francisco county superior court. he entered a plea of not guilty. depape told responding officers he planned to hold nancy hostage and talk to her. he said if nancy were to tell the truth he would let her go, and if she lied, she would break her kneecaps and if he broke her kneecaps

but you need nancy pelosi to run a tight ship and protect you. i think one of things democrats did not see coming was if they kept the senate, which they have, then joe biden is now the guy that will be the presidential contender for their party. this will not be a massive everybody jumping kind of thing. obvious, we have to switch gears and if you are nancy pelosi, all right, can all the other democrats handle protecting him and protecting if he is our candidate like i can? i think that is the only reason she would stay because she realizes now how vulnerable -- forget hunter biden, how vulnerable the biden crime family is specifically the president of the united states of america. >> kayleigh: we saw a very powerful, energetic press conference this morning with jim jordan and james comer. i will play a little bit of james jordan and this is what jim jordan had to say about the oversight committee. >> what part of mr. cromer's presentation, prompted the fbi to go to facebook and say, hey, you want to be on the lookout for russian disinformation
