House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday she is sticking to her request that President Trump delay his planned Jan. 29 State of the Union address, and made it clear she is more than willing to have Trump arrive later in the year, after the partial government shutdown is over.


quote:

Pelosi said in an interview Wednesday that she won’t change her mind on seeking a postponement. “I have made it clear,” Pelosi said as she walked to her office in the Capitol. “This is a continuation of government issue that we have the proper security for such an event.” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., dismissed Pelosi's complaint by saying essential employees like Capitol Police and other security are still able to work during the shutdown, which he said shows Pelosi is playing politics.



Nielsen rebukes Pelosi claim of security issues for SOTU address

quote:

Homeland Security Chief Kirstjen Nielsen on Wednesday said her agency and the US Secret Service were "fully prepared" to provide security for President Donald Trump's State of the Union address scheduled for January 29. In a tweet, Nielsen said, "The Department of Homeland Security and the US Secret Service are fully prepared to support and secure the State of the Union. We thank the Service for their mission focus and dedication and for all they do each day to secure our homeland."




Count Pelosi is adding to ever growing list of ways she's fricking up the shite down for her party.

This tells me all I need to know about who the "shutdown" is actually hurting. Dems.

She had a hissy fit when POTUS didn't cave to SOTU



Then she went and got some hack on a HLS committee that's entire page is muh Russians and hate Trump to say he agrees with her... LINK

This would usually have the GOPe sayin yes miss Pelosi yes massa Pelosi...

Then Trump laid out the boom



She is used to bossing Dubya and the limp wristed GOPe. Scalise, McCarthy, and turtle are backing Trump.

No. She just wants her rebuttal to be all about how she saved the country from collapse that the shutdown would surely cause. She really doesn't want to make a repeat of her last rebuttal, which she obviously would if SOTU goes as planned.

She's been an even bigger disaster than I could have hoped for.

I really hope he just delivers the sotu document to the speaker and then instead of gathering Congress to address them, he just delivers a 90 minute fireside chat style state of the union address from a lounge chair in the oval office.

Teleprompters need not apply.

Remember the last SOTU? Dems just sitting there looking pissed as Trump rattled off stats about how well blacks and other minorities are doing under his admin and then actively booing a family who’s daughter was killed by an illegal? Never forget the type of scum we’re dealing with.

He hasn't personally said anything.


Nielsen issued a statement from DHS saying that security would not be an issue.

It was a stupid play on her part, very stupid... The entities involved in providing the security for the SOTU are some of the last entities that will ever be affected by a government shut down... think, total shut down, someone turn out the lights on the way out shut down...

This bitch is too stupid to understand that AND the Dems elected her as their merry leader... You can't make this shite up...

She is an actor looking for a gig. Instead of waiting for a fight to come to her, she is windmill punching at the air

Trump should deliver the SOTU speech from the Oval Office as scheduled and then have the written statement of the text of the speech delivered to Congress.

The constitution does not require the POTUS to appear before congress in person to speak. Thomas Jefferson hand wrote his state of the union statement and had it delivered to congress.

It doesn't even specify the frequency only saying the chief executive “shall from time to time give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.”
