House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building Confirms State of Union Speech Cancellation
It looks like Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi has no intention of allowing the House chamber to be used for a State of the Union address.
Speaker Pelosi has informed the House Sergeant at Arms that no executive branch official will be permitted entry into the Capitol building.
Earlier Fox News reported Pelosi cancelled a walkthrough last week, and a second request for reconsideration from the White House is expected to meet the same fate. The House Speaker controls who is, and who is not, permitted entry to the House floor. Until Speaker Pelosi calls for a vote to support a joint session of congress, the President cannot enter the chamber.
Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley discusses the status of the current shutdown negotiations and the likelihood a SOU address will have to take place outside Washington DC.
I have to say.. Nancy your grounded.. Donald stay in your room. Yes... this is our we gave 10 Billion additional taxpayer dollars to Mexico n central America but cant find 5 Billion leadership.
No rif today either? Shocking.
Moronic
The Senate has its own chamber
“The House Speaker controls who is, and who is not, permitted entry to the House floor.”
So just hold it in the Senate Chambers.
Is this “Historic” Histrionics?
....he may adjourn them to such Time as
Nancy has her plastic ball and bat out, and thinks she’s going to beat Trump at real hard-ball.
Popping popcorn within minutes...
ONLY if the House and Senate disagree.
Post of the month!
EAS at half time.
As Hannity said this afternoon: President Trump is the Roadrunner and the lsm and leftists are Wiley Coyote...
I would like to know, lets see..smile
yep...
Can anyone here imagine, just IMAGINE, if any of the GOPe House leadership would fight like Pelosi, especially when the brown klown was in office?
Pelosi is an idiot, but at least she fights.
Ryan was a passive backstabber. This tells you EXACTLY who Ryan was, and like who McCarthy is now.
If this turns out to be true, I will praise God for being mercifully prevented from seeing her distorted, ugly face behind President Trump.
I was NOT looking forward to that.
She, however, will be furious that she is not seen, the pathetic, vindictive, sour excuse for a professional woman.
What woman, who is a serious professional acts like this?
Weld the doors shut so the RATS can’t get out.
Thats a base insult to thieves and vipers.
DC is a city of evil.
It’s why I won’t vote for a woman president. Asinine.
Its not Pelosi’s House.... It is OUR house.
Remember what POTUS wrote at the end of his tweet about giving the SOTU speech and contracts?... Be careful Nancy.
POTUS is not given to idle threats.
