Full title: Nancy Pelosi Charged The Air Force Nearly $200k To Fly Her Family And Other Lawmakers To Italy And Ukraine
House Speaker Nancy Pelosis congressional delegation (CODEL) to Belgium, Egypt and Afghanistan garnered extra attention after President Donald Trump banned her from using military aircraft, but the trip would not have been the first time she used Air Force money to travel the world.
Pelosis trip to Italy and Ukraine from July 30 to Aug. 6, 2015, cost the Air Force $184,587.81, according to documents released Saturday under a 2015 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit by Judicial Watch. Her delegation was made up of other Democratic members of Congress, including California Rep. Anna Eshoo, after token Republican Wisconsin Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner pulled out last minute, reported The Washington Post in 2015.
Four family members, including Pelosis husband Paul Pelosi, were slated to go on the trip. The delegation was scheduled to dine at restaurants including James Beard American Restaurant in Milan, where a five-course meal cost up to $190, according to Fine Dining Lovers. The lawmakers also toured the Vatican and met up with Italian dignitaries, including President Sergio Mattarella and then-Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, according to their itinerary.

Nancy Pelosi has a long history of demanding aircraft for her personal use.
President Trump was right to cancel her latest taxpayer funded trip.
Dear Speaker Pelosi,
You may kindly GFY.
Sincerely,
The United States Air Force.
F-ing thief. Just a common criminal.
I cannot see a reason that the US Govt should pay for a drop of alcohol for entertainment.
I don’t pay taxes to support the lifestyles of an alcoholic octogenarian.
US CONGRESS SWITCHBOARD: (202) 224-3121
TALKING POINTS: How much is it costing us to keep Pelosi as Speaker? Can she account for all the tax dollars flowing into her office?
FOR EXAMPLE: Can Pelosi account for the advance of $50,000 tax dollars for a "USAF escort officer" on just one of her many trips?
=================================
Cease all military travel by elected members. Pelosi and her husband are multi-millionaires----
and so are the rest. Taxpayers will no longer finance luxury travel for these people.

This should not be allowed. Especially when there are people suffering from ringworm.
The ruling elite, shameful.
All of this luggage was ret'd to Pelosi's office, indicating a lot of people were traveling with her apparently using her office as an address..
TAXPAYERS DEMAND TO KNOW --
<><> How many of Pelosis family were in her travel delegation?
<><> perhaps hired as govt temps to work for her?
<><> as a pretext to score a free trip?
<><> paid for w/ tax dollars.
Looks like a job for Judicial Watch.

WOW~! that’s a lot of money just for that
She’s not the only congresscritter to do this. Make them all repay their friends and family vacations and the wall would be paid for 3 times over.
The last time I was in Milan I had a salad at a McDonald's restaurant--better than their salads in the US. I don't remember what it cost but probably somewhere between $5 and $10.
No wonder these people want to stay in power. They are living it up on our dime.
Think about the cost to ferry this queen bitch when our combat soldiers fought and bled in Afghanistan and Iraq.
That to me is the most pathetic part of this.
People who are not rich paying taxes so Nancy,
and company, can live high on the hog.
Sickening.
One year, the bar tab for her airplane —JUST the bar tab, mind you— was over $100,000.
Let that sink in.
Public Serve Us, at it’s finest!
Still a piker compared to the Wookie and her moocher Mama Robinson and their posse of hanger-ons who squandered a billion dollars.
I hope she flies on a plane sometime where the pilots have parachutes and bail out leaving her to crash into the ocean with her and her ilk.
