"Unbeknownst to Nadler, Mollie Hemingway, editor of The Federalist and a Fox News contributor, sat several rows behind him. That time Jerry Nadler accidentally revealed his Trump impeachment plans to me on an Amtrak. https://t.co/NZyMUEnH3U"Legal Insurrection "Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), who has served in Congress for 34 years, announced that he will not seek reelection next year. He represents New York’s 12th Congressional District, which currently encompasses much of midtown Manhattan.
"In a recent interview with The New York Times, Nadler, 78, acknowledged his reluctance to step aside, citing his belief that President Donald Trump “is threatening the foundations of democracy.” Still, he said he wanted to clear a path for “generational change” within the Democratic Party.
“ 'Watching the Biden thing really said something about the necessity for generational change in the party, and I think I want to respect that,” Nadler told the Times. He added that a younger successor “can maybe do better, can maybe help us more.”

"The congressman has already come under pressure amid the party’s debate over aging leadership. In December, he was forced to give up his role as ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee when it became clear that Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) had the votes to defeat him.
"Though he has long been one of Congress’s most liberal voices — and Republicans are pleased to see him go — his retirement raises questions about who will succeed him. It’s entirely possible that voters could opt for a successor in the mold of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani, the far-left, antisemitic, current frontrunner in New York City’s mayoral race, whom Nadler has endorsed." . . .
