'She Was An Evil Woman': Trump Reacts As Nancy Pelosi Announces Retirement After 4 Decades In US Congress

Nancy Pelosi, the first and only woman ever to serve as Speaker of the US House of Representatives, announced Thursday that she will not seek re-election in 2026, marking the close of an extraordinary congressional career that has spanned nearly four decades. "With a grateful heart, I look forward to my final year of service," Pelosi said in her statement. "I will not be seeking re-election to Congress." The 85-year-old California Democrat has been a towering figure in American politics since her first election in 1987, guiding her party through some of the most turbulent and transformative years in recent history. The Timing Behind Pelosi’s Decision Pelosi’s announcement comes just days after the passage of California’s Proposition 50, a redistricting measure she strongly supported and which was backed by the Democratic establishment. According to NBC News, senior Democrats had long expected Pelosi’s decision, with one insider noting, "I think she’s out. She’s going to go out with Prop 50 overwhelmingly passing." The timing underscores Pelosi’s characteristic sense of strategy: stepping down on her own terms, following a legislative victory that aligns with her long-standing political goals. A Legacy That Redefined Congressional Leadership Throughout her career, Pelosi has been both admired and criticized for her formidable command of legislative politics. She first held the Speaker’s gavel from 2007 to 2011 and again from 2019 to 2023, steering major bills like the Affordable Care Act and the Dodd-Frank financial reforms through a deeply divided Congress. Her leadership extended beyond policy; it reshaped the Democratic Party’s identity and strategy. As House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries once described her, Pelosi was the "greatest Speaker of all time." Her tenure also included moments of intense political drama, most notably, her leading role in the impeachment proceedings against then-President Donald Trump. After the first House impeachment vote, Pelosi famously declared, "This president is impeached for life, regardless of any gamesmanship on the part of Mitch McConnell. There is nothing the Senate can do to ever erase that." Trump’s Blistering Reaction US President Donald Trump quickly seized on Pelosi’s announcement, calling her departure a "great thing for America." Speaking to Fox News on Thursday, Trump said, "The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country." Later, addressing reporters in the Oval Office, Trump added, "I think she was an evil woman who did a poor job, who cost the country a lot in damages and in reputation. I thought she was terrible. I think she did the country a great service by retiring. I think she was a tremendous liability for the country."

'Be careful what you wish for': Ex-England pacer issues warning after Aussie jibes at Ben Stokes

Finn believes Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum's fearless approach, encouraging player freedom, offers England a strong chance to shift the narrative and achieve a career-defining Ashes victory Down Under, much like the 2010-11 triumph.

Trump Hints At Possible India Visit Next Year, Says Trade Talks With PM Modi 'Going Good'

US President Donald Trump on Thursday signalled a possible visit to India in the coming year amid the ongoing trade talks. Trump also said that the trade talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi were "going good" and heaped praises on him, describing him as "a great man". Addressing reporters at the White House following the introduction of a new plan to make weight loss drugs more affordable nationwide, Trump expressed optimism about his ongoing talks with PM Modi. He also stated that India had largely stopped buying Russian oil amid pressure from US as part of its crackdown on nations purchasing Russian energy. “They are going good. He (PM Modi) largely stopped buying from Russia. And he is a friend of mine, and we speak. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a great man. He is a friend of mine, and we speak and he wants me to go there. We will figure that out, I will go… Prime Minister Modi is a great man and I will be going,” Trump said. When asked about a trip to India, he added, “It could be, yes.” #WATCH | Washington DC | On questions of talks over trade deals with PM Narendra Modi, US President Donald Trump says, "They are going good, he stopped buying oil from Russia largely. He is a friend of mine, and we speak and he wants me to go there. We will figure that out, I… pic.twitter.com/jWvcphukfi — ANI (@ANI) November 6, 2025 Trump's remarks come several months after The New York Times reported in August that his visit for the upcoming Quad Summit was no longer planned, following Washington’s decision to levy new tariffs. The story, citing sources close to the President’s schedule, highlighted assurances previously given to PM Modi about attending the summit, which have since changed.  These developments also occur as trade negotiations between India and the US continue in the wake of Washington’s decision to impose steep tariffs, which include a combined 50 percent, comprising an additional 25 percent over India’s ongoing purchase of Russian oil. Company Representative Faints During Briefing During the White House briefing, officials unveiled a major initiative aimed at reducing the cost of widely used weight loss medications across America. The event took an unexpected turn when a company representative fainted, prompting rapid intervention from the White House medical team. "During the Most Favoured Nations Oval Office Announcement, a representative with one of the companies fainted. The White House Medical Unit quickly jumped into action, and the gentleman is okay. The press conference will resume shortly," said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. White House Reaffirms India-US Ties Earlier this week, Leavitt reiterated Trump’s commitment to robust bilateral relations, noting, “The President is positive and feels very strongly about the India-US relationship. A few weeks ago, he spoke to the Prime Minister directly when he celebrated Diwali in the Oval Office with many high-ranking Indian-American officials here at the White House.” Trump recently praised India’s efforts to reduce Russian oil imports, sharing that PM Modi had assured him of steps to curb or halt crude purchases from Moscow. The President’s remarks reflect his administration’s strategy to economically isolate Russia with expanded sanctions and energy restrictions—actions taken amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) responded to Trump’s comments earlier this month, emphasising that energy sourcing decisions are made in line with national priorities and consumer welfare.

Panchak 2025: Check Out These Activities That Can Be Performed Safely During This Period

In Hinduism, the five-day period of Panchak is considered inauspicious. According to beliefs, during Panchak, the movement of planets and the position of the Moon create conditions that increase the influence of negative energies on Earth. Hence, many important activities such as buying vehicles or property, performing bhoomi pujan, conducting auspicious ceremonies, or making new investments are generally avoided during these five days. However, not all tasks are prohibited during Panchak. There are certain activities that can be safely performed without any negative effects. ALSO READ: February 2026 To Witness The First Eclipse Of The Year: Here's What You Should Know Works That Can Be Carried Out During The Panchak Period: Daily Worship And Prayer: You can continue your regular household or temple prayers, including aarti, chanting, and daily rituals. These do not carry any dosha during Panchak. Raj Panchak (Starting on Monday): If the Panchak begins on a Monday, it is considered Raj Panchak, which is regarded as auspicious. All kinds of activities can be carried out during this period. Budh Panchak (Starting on Wednesday): Similarly, Panchak starting on a Wednesday is also free from dosha, allowing auspicious tasks to be performed. Guru Panchak (Starting on Thursday): When Panchak starts on a Thursday, it is known as Guru Panchak and is considered highly favorable for all types of work. Religious Rituals: You may perform religious rituals such as Satyanarayan Katha, Shiv Charcha, or Havan at home. However, it is advisable to consult a learned priest before proceeding. Tulsi Worship: Regular worship of the Tulsi plant is considered highly auspicious during the Panchak period. Charitable Acts: Donating food, fruits, clothes, or money to the needy during Panchak brings blessings and is considered meritorious. Holy Bath And Offerings: Taking a holy dip in a sacred river or offering water (Arghya) to the Sun after bathing at home is also recommended during Panchak. Fasting And Festivals: If any festivals or fasting days such as Ekadashi, Purnima, Pradosh Vrat, or Shivratri fall during Panchak, they can be observed as usual. Panchak does not affect these religious observances.
