Nancy Pelosi has officially barred President Trump from delivering the State of the Union in the House of Representatives. The Daily Caller reports:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi officially will not allow President Donald Trump to deliver his State of the Union address to Congress on January 29, she said in a letter Wednesday afternoon.
“I am writing to inform you that the House of Representatives will not consider a concurrent resolution authorizing the president’s State of the Union address in the House Chamber until the government has been reopened,” Pelosi declared.
Pelosi’s letter came hours after Trump dared the Speaker to follow through on her suggestion that the address be put off. The House speaker at the time suggested that the address could not be held because of security concerns from the government shutdown’s effect on protection personnel.
Pelosi, however, was rebuked by Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, who said that the department was fully prepared to provide security if necessary.
This is unprecedented in the history of the nation, and shows just how far Democrats will go to have their way.
This woman is delusional. How can the Dems be so disrespectful to the President ? This game being played in DC has become a power play in which the American public is no longer a consideraton. Members of the House and Senate should have a restriction imposed upon them for limited terms to be served by their members, this rule would prevent the power structure that exists in DC. These idiots are now helping many Socialists to gain a stronghold in Washington that is truly a threat to our Democracy.
Pelosi needs to go. This is horrible and irresponsible behavior. Unforgivable!
Trump should rent an arena and invite the public.
Good idea…..
Another great idea!
The PEOPLE elected Trump. The House does not belong to Pelosi. It belongs to the PEOPLE.
Evidently Nancy cares only about Nancy. She feels she owns Congress and all us poor folks.
Someone needs to put her in her place…out to the pasture for the old hag.
Pelosi is so smart, right after the 2008 election she came out and said that the DemocRATS would not lose an election in the next 50 years. Two years later she lost her leadership in the house. When Obama passed his health care he had to bribe two DemocRAT Senitors to get it passed and Pelosi said pass the bill and then read it. Pelosi, I hope will be gone in two years. The DemocRATS won the house but really the Republicans lost it by having 45 retire and leaving those seats to be up for grabs. If the Republicans would have 1/2 that many retire they would have kept the house. We need term limits two terms in the house and one four year term in the Senate and ZERO RETIREMENT. Our fourfathers never dreamed of anyone wanting to be a politician for ever. That is why they did not put something in there to limit people to serve two terms and go back into the private sector. The problem is the Senate which is 6 years. We need to cut it to four years.
Where does it say that the State Of The Union Address must be given in a Government Building?
I bet there are hundreds of American Legions and Knights of Columbus that would be proud or host such a speech and would tell Nancy to “Keep Out”.
When one tier of the government refuses to even consider negotiation with another tier, then it becomes time to totally discard them. Democrats are no longer democrats, they have been replaced by anti-American entities. Time to restore law and order so that REAL AMERICANS of all ethnicities can reclaim the REAL AMERICA as set forth in the Constitution of The United States of America. Those that hate America have at least 56 alternative ways of life in foreign countries where they will be welcomed and can live out their fanatical ways/fantasy dreams. I really don’t think any of the other countries will be able to tolerate them either. We have 12 years of indoctrination of our children to destroy our history as a nation. History is meant to teach us what has been done that did not work for all, and then it is up to us to CHANGE, so that history cannot repeat itself. The current atmosphere has almost destroyed the wonderful work of Martin Luther King. The current atmosphere has set us back at least 50 years of progress in all areas. President Trump has worked for ALL of us in so many areas, and yet must tolerate a constant barrage of people that are attempting to destroy our once beautiful country. Time for Americans to unite and restore America to America today. Madame Nancy Pelosi is not the President of this United States of America and is proving on a daily basis the she definitely should NOT be Speaker of the House of Representatives. That body has been radicalized and has become totally dysfunctional as a governing body. They only work 34 weeks a year and are paid an obscene amount of money for not accomplishing anything, while the working American works 48 to 52 weeks a year just to survive. Something wrong with that picture. Now they are refusing to work for Americans benefit at all unless everything is done for their benefit. In other words, the House of Representatives is useless! Wake up America.
Isthere no one that can throw Pelosi out of the White House……..she needs to be put in a strait jacket and throw her in an airplane to never to be seen again. She has been a terrible person. All of her life.
This pos ?itch has been elected by one (1) district in this Nation , she couldn’t show her face in my district . Why are we being subjected to her actions. Why are the Congressmen in the House allowing one blivet to set the course of action for this country. We need “TERM LIMITS ” or clean out the complete house and find people to do the job for the Country and not for themselves or their backers or their party… While we are on the subject of polosi WHY DON’T WE INVESTIGATE HER FOR STEALING FROM OUR GOVERNMENT ?Airplane use & who knows what else..Wake up before it is too late !!!
I agree.
Pelosi belosi needs to be impeached
Is that even possible? If so then yes, I agree completely. She’s a disgrace for our country and for her own party.
Let me get this straight Nancy, during the government shut down:
– government employees are working without paychecks.
– American citizens won’t get their tax refunds (or will be very delayed).
– you take trips to Hawaii while fellow Dems take trips to Puerto Rico.
– you, NOR your staff, are affected in any way by the shut down.
– you offer NO solutions to resolve the shutdown.
– you and your ilk LIED to President Reagan in 1986 when you and the Dems promised Reagan a Border Wall in exchange for Amnesty. We’re still waiting Nancy!! That’s why Trump won’t re-open government without a deal first. He knows you and the entire Democrat Party are a bunch of LIARS!!!
BUT DON’T STOP NOW!! KEEP SAYING NO!! RUN YOUR ENTIRE DEMOCRAT PARTY OFF THE PROVERBIAL POLITICAL CLIFF WITH YOUR CONSTANT OBSTRUCTIONISM. And you call Trump petulant?
I agree, Nancy get a cane!
Cane? I think you spelled Brain incorrectly.
Who in the hell does she think she is? Next thing you’ll see her throwing a tantrum in the aisle of the House holding her breath like a 3 year old.
Don’t insult the 3 year old like that.
