Nancy Pelosi Is Attempting to Sabotage the Front-Runner to Replace Her in Congress: Report

When former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced her retirement after nearly 40 years of service, it was widely assumed that California state Sen. Scott Wiener would be the man to replace her.
However, in a plot twist in what would normally be a ho-hum race, Pelosi and the machine that she’s built has turned against Wiener, a progressive mainstay, in favor of San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan.
According to a Monday Politico report, Pelosi and her team have been working behind the scenes for weeks to try to derail Wiener’s candidacy, an effort that became very public after a spat over a chatbot campaign stunt on Wiener’s part that Pelosi insisted was sexist.
Other than not being full-perv (AFAIK) Chan is otherwise as or more fruitcakey than Wiener.
