House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is not vying to become the next U.S. ambassador to Italy, her office said on Tuesday in denying a rumor that was floated this week.
Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo, citing anonymous sources, reported that Pelosi would be interested in the role if Republicans take control of the House in the 2022 midterms. Those sources, she said, claimed Pelosi wants President Joe Biden to nominate her to become the ambassador to the European country.
