House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) issued a statement following the U.S. operation to kill ISIS terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi on Sunday.
“Americans salute the heroism…and acknowledge the work of our partners in the region. We are relieved that no U.S. personnel died in this daring raid,” she said in a statement. “The death of al-Baghdadi is significant, but the death of this ISIS leader does not mean the death of ISIS. Scores of ISIS fighters remain under uncertain conditions in Syrian prisons, and countless others in the region and around the world remain intent on spreading their influence and committing acts of terror.”
Pelosi, however, again criticized the White House for pulling back troops from Syria earlier this month, saying that “ISIS fighters remain under uncertain conditions in Syrian prisons, and countless others in the region and around the world remain intent on spreading their influence.”
Meanwhile, her statement added, she said the House has to be told about such raids beforehand.
“The House must be briefed on this raid,” she said, adding that “our military and allies deserve strong, smart and strategic leadership from Washington.”

She appears to be delusional, Jim.
Wasn’t she just over in Jordan trying to undermine our President
“The House must be briefed on this raid,”
Why???
“The House must be briefed on this raid,” she said, adding that “our military and allies deserve strong, smart and strategic leadership from Washington.”
Screw you.
It was a military operation which needs no sabotaging from YOU.
“...strong, smart and strategic leadership from Washington.”
Looks like we finally got some, Nan....
Total nonsense. I cannot imagine telling Congress of a top secret military raid in advance.
She was just in Syria.
Trump used her as bait...
and it worked
Trump should just ignore her.
She was briefed just like us at the Presidents news conference. (Oh how sweet!)
Trump had a meeting about Syria...Pelosi and Schumer walked out of that meeting.
No he should not tell them about operations like this, they warn the targets and run to the media.
I would bet the life expectancy of our Special Forces and Navy SEALs will be longer if Congress is not informed until after these operations.
We lost many in the Spec. Ops community when O was in the WH and the dims knew what was going on.
We have to have the raid before she can see what’s in it.
:)
Only if one of her family members were part of the team.
So the b***h could have one of her mindless minions tell the Muzzies?
Not on your sorry frigging boink a rich guy to purchase a congressional seat talentless and lie ridden life, idiot woman.
You only said what everyone is thinking.
:)
By not telling democrats this is exactly what Pres Trump did to give “our military and allies deserve strong, smart and strategic leadership from Washington.”
Nancy it wasn’t a mob hit it was a military operation. A mob hit we ask you for advice because you are the expert.
Nancy is too stupid to realize Trump has no obligation to tell Congress sh*t. If he wanted to tell any of them anything, it would be out of professional courtesy. And the last thing Nancy and her ilk can be called is professional and trustworthy.
Ooooooohhhh, love it.
