It’s the D. C. type of” Mean Women”.
We thank Gawd for demonstrating that men and women are fundamentally different. For the most part, women are kinder, kinder, fresher, and less likely to crush their Television when their sport staff doesn’t include the spread. Men are much more aggressive, short-sighted, and often gassy.

Advantage: Girls.
But on the other hand, people are also more direct — and that’s not usually a good. If you’ve actually seen a girl greet her “friend” (” Oh my God, Sheila, you look so incredible, I really love that coat”! ), you might’ve noticed that the power of her compliments coincides with Sheila’s real proximity.’ Trigger the quick Sheila’s out of sight, her whole develop changes:” God, I hate her, like, so little! And that coat was absolutely repulsive”!
People don’t do that.
Women are like cats: They prance around and display emotions in all kinds of subtle ( and not-so-subtle ) ways. Some cats enjoy being close to you, but their movements make them terrified and strange. All felines are unique.
People, however, are like canines: If a puppy likes you, it doesn’t matter the type — it’ll keep its head straight in your groin!
Different than Spring Break, people almost never do that.
When guys don’t get along, they’ll trade words, talk strong, and might even throw hands. But an hour after, they’re sharing a beverage.  ,
All’s well that ends also.
When women don’t get along, they issue their adversaries to a scorched-earth mental assault: The end-goal is to destroy your enemy’s confidence, kill her reputation, and cause some kind of mental meltdown. ( Or, at a minimum, at least induce an eating disorder. )  ,
They go for the throat!
And that’s what’s so amazing about the” Mean Girl” conflict between the Biden community and the Pelosi home. Today’s POLITICO content has all the juicy information.

Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi has been bombarded with information, flowers, and names of concern from heads of state, members of both parties, and even nobility, most importantly Luxembourg’s Grand Duke Henri, who was hosting her when she fell and has been attentive throughout her recovery.
Yet it’s who she has not heard from that’s most remarkable, and that has infuriated Pelosi’s friends and family: Joe and Jill Biden.
You can almost hear the whispers in the high school hallway:” Did you hear that Nancy broke her hip, and Joe, like, didn’t even call? That’s so rude! So un-fetch”!
Pelosi’s daughter certainly thought so:
” If I was Lady McBiden, I’d put on my big girl pants, play the long game and think about my husband’s legacy”, Alexandra Pelosi, the former speaker’s daughter, told me Saturday. There aren’t that many people in America today who would like to talk about Joe Biden, and Nancy Pelosi is one of them.
( Whenever women fight, there’s almost always a reference to clothing. Has anyone else noticed that? Either way, I’m not so sure comparing the president’s wife to the manipulative, ruinous, amoral villain in a Shakespearian play — or using the adjective “big” to describe her pants — is the best way to seek rapprochement. )
Still, the POLITICO article has a decidedly pro-Pelosi slant:
Pelosi has tried multiple times, I’m told, to have a conversation with Biden. However, the president’s top advisers have repeatedly said the same thing to her and intermediaries who’ve also tried to rapproche:” No.”
She has been told they are not over it, and they should not make more statements because he is blaming her, according to a person who has spoken to Pelosi about the exchanges between the former speaker and Biden’s supporters.
Pelosi told people last week that she was shocked that the Bidens would leave on such a low note and that she was left wondering rhetorically why they would express such hostility.

Wanna know how cutthroat the D. C. version of” Mean Girls” was? Well, listen up, girlfriends: At the White House Christmas party, Joe Biden said hello to the Pelosis— but Jill wasn’t there!
Gasp!
Biden did briefly chat with Pelosi, her husband, Paul, and daughter Christine at a White House holiday party last month. But that interaction only served to serve as a reminder of the rupture.
The Pelosi family did not intend to break into the party’s receiving circle. When they walked to the front, though, they were warmly greeted by the president, vice president and first gentleman. But Jill Biden was missing.
In the minds of the Pelosi family, any chance that the first lady’s absence that night was coincidental was erased last week when Jill Biden publicly expressed her anger toward the former speaker in a Washington Post interview.
” We were friends for 50 years“, said the first lady. ” It was disappointing”.
Next, the article gets to the heart of the Pelosis ‘ gripe: Hey, EVERYONE wanted to get rid of Ugly Old Joe Biden! Why single out Nancy? Like, everyone at school knew Biden was totally un-fetch:
The fact that Biden appears to blame Pelosi alone for an intercession that most Democratic leaders at the time and now consider to be necessary is what has disappointed her intimates. And that’s after all Pelosi did as speaker to deliver the votes for Biden’s most significant accomplishments, first as vice president and then as president.
When Nancy Pelosi fell and broke her hip in Europe, the article took an unexpectedly dark turn. The Pelosis seriously believed that the Biden White House would grant her a plane, opting instead to let an injured octogenarian suffer: despite their 50 years of friendship.

The Pelosis had to choose whether she should go to a U.S. military hospital, which she did, or return home for treatment right away because she was desperate to receive the best care in the first few hours following the accident. And a portion of that trepidation is allegedly related to a rumor that Biden would fly her a plane “because we have this wall at the White House,” as one expert said. ( A second source reported that any worries vanished after White House staff received the news and responded quickly. )
Imagine that! If Biden’s friends thought he could be that petty, cruel, and vindictive, what does that say about how Biden treated his enemies?
However, the article ( which was clearly pushed, assisted, and promoted by pro-Pelosi partisans, my” PR goggles” tell me that the Bidens probably didn’t participate at all ) couldn’t deny Pelosi’s role in deposing the soon-to-be-ex-president. In many ways, it was her crowing success that was the crowning jewel of all the authority she had seized in Washington:
Pelosi’s role in excluding Biden from the race is not understated. In the backstage political drama from last summer, she was the most important player.
If it weren’t for Pelosi’s Morning Joe interview, which took place right before her meeting with Biden in the White House residence, it is entirely possible that the president would have survived the crisis.
The former speaker repeatedly insisted that his decision remained an open question when many Democratic lawmakers were drifting back to Biden at the time Congress returned from July 4. Effectively, that crucial moment made sure it was, and Biden resigned less than two weeks later.
