Nancy Pelosi isn’t a sure thing to remain the House Speaker (though she probably will), and there are still a couple special elections for the U.S. Senate that will take place in Georgia. However, Pelosi seems to be assuming the Republicans will retain control of the Senate, but wanted to send this message to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell:
Pelosi: McConnell in for rude awakening when Biden takes office
"That's what Mitch McConnell is going to find out now … not having Donald Trump in the White House is going to change his leverage" https://t.co/aNltyNWOH5

Pelosi says having a Democrat president will reshape Congress dynamics, regardless of party control: "That's what Mitch McConnell is going to find out now. Whether he's in the majority or the minority, not having Donald Trump in the White House is going to change his leverage" pic.twitter.com/lYAcKjt9Fc

As for “leverage,” the Democrats are still to this day complaining about how Cocaine Mitch wielded his power in 2016:
That's why we have Supreme Court Justice Merrick Garland. https://t.co/nzVOS3SjrY
