Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is not running for reelection, so it is time to get familiar with the Democrat who is likely to replace her in Congress: state Sen. Scott Wiener, one of the most destructive state legislators in the country.

Wiener is the logical replacement for Pelosi thanks to his familiarity with her district. The Democratic establishment is already lining up behind him, with California Attorney General Rob Bonta endorsing him on the same day that Pelosi announced she would not be running. Pelosi will almost certainly back Wiener as well, given that the top alternative is Saikat Chakrabarti, the former chief of staff to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who created a lot of problems for Pelosi when Ocasio-Cortez was first elected.
