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.
Well the Senate could call a joint session couldn’t they?
And then he could deliver it in the Senate as I mentioned.
Good post, we are on the same page IMO
He should give the SOTU in a large venue public address and THEN send it in writing the next day to Congress.
Don’t give it to the Dems in advance where they can pick it apart and spin things for their rebuttal.
4. In a stadium filed with Americans who have lost loved ones or been injured by illegal aliens.Angel Moms (and Dads and Brothers and Sisters etc)
Plus any other citizens that want to attend
The first group in front rows or on stage behind him
Calling a joint session by the Senate seems like the same thing, even though tradition is it’s the House that calls it.
If Nancy doesn’t want to come fine, but any of the house members that want to could come.
Does the Senate have the nads to do this?
From what was reported on Fox News today, both the Senate and the House have veto power over a joint session. It has to be approved by both Houses.
She wanted get the "erming" that Stormy got... ;-)
Her staffers are running things, just like the law clerks are running Supreme Court seat #6...
Ah ha
I didn’t know that
Thank you
I guess it’s the capitol steps with a crowd from there to the Lincoln Memorial
I wonder if Trump could get a permit?
A lot of options out there, Trump will find the best venue and way to present the SOTU and then AFTERWARDS print out a transcript and mail it to Nancy
DON’T give her an advance copy
ResistNance is brain-damaged.
That won't do any good.
There's a duplicate key... ;-)
GIANT Trump rally, Covington, Kentucky!
Yeah?
Well. Immuh gonna gettuh fattuh on buttuh wit my popcorn....
Luv me some popcorn .... in a 50 gallon barrel....
I hate friggin passive aggressives and ask them to be more upfront or I will go all Battleship on them, since they have a mirror behind them...
That pic is awful.
I know Nancy and she doesn’t look like that, at all.
Oh, and not my fault.
I live in liberalville and my friends invite me to these things...
ask null and void...
If this action taken by Democrat, Speaker of the House Pelosi is true, the Democrat caucus in the House of Representatives should vote to dismiss Pelosi as the Speaker of the House and replace her with Democrat, Steny Hoyer.
Nancy Pelosi is without a lingering doubt certifiably insane and is doing mortal political damage to the Democrat Party, the American people and the American nation. Democrats...all, this will not go well for you. The woman needs to be restrained and housed inside a mental institution immediately.
Hahahaha....I remember that! Let's hope it doesn't come to that with Puglosi.
Pelosi is training AOC to be EVEN MORE of a B!tch.
Kill two buzzards with one stone, have the rally here in Upstate NY, that way you can smack Prince Andrew along with Fancy Prancy Nancy.
LOL,
The BS law today is nothing more than a way to control people and does not represent the people anymore
I know you are correct, but to me the country no longer represents the people at all..sadly..not that I think going commie works either, I cannot see the comparison between a president wanting to go into the House for a speech and a dictator, oh that’s right it’s the law, the same one that only gets applied to folks they want to incarcerate..
GIANT Trump rally, Washington DC Congressional Chamber, Pelosi Vineyards, Schumer Offices,...
