Pelosi snaps at Conway after tense White House meeting:‘I don’t talk to staff...'

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi snapped at White House counselor Kellyanne Conway after a tense, aborted meeting on infrastructure Wednesday, a senior administration official told CNBC.

“I don’t talk to staff. I talk directly to the president,” Pelosi said after Conway asked the speaker a question, according to the official.

The interaction followed President Donald Trump’s abrupt exit from a meeting with Democratic congressional leaders.

Pelosi earlier in the day accused the president of engaging in a “cover-up” by blocking White House aides from providing testimony and responding to document requests from congressional investigations.

The president responded by saying he doesn’t “do cover-ups” and that he could not work with Democrats on legislation until they stopped investigating him.

In a last-minute press event at the Rose Garden, Trump said he “walked into the room and I told Sen. Schumer and Speaker Pelosi, ‘I want to do infrastructure’ ... but we can’t do it under these circumstances.”

Sphincter of the House!

When I watched news accounts of Pelosi's reaction to the 3-minute meeting ended by President Trump, I thought that Pelosi looked horrible. More horrible than usual, looked like chemical peels on her face to reduce wrinkling.

And then I thought "Prep-H, her face looks like an a$$h*le, like, like, a sphincter!" Nothing but crap spews from that face, jaws grinding, tight-lipped until they spew crap. Yesterday, more horrible looking than ever.

Ooooh, her highness is above speaking to someone not in her class.

Isn't she special?

I can see she's been rubbing elbows with Hillary......

WSJ: Nancy Pelosi Backs William Barr. The Speaker agrees that senior government officials don’t answer to staff.

“I don’t talk to staff. I talk directly to the president,”

Well, that's been changed.

And don't call us...we'll call you.

Didn’t Hilliarily Clinton refuse to say hello to the Secret Service agents assigned to protect her.

I attended a Trump rally in New Hampshire on 8/6/16.To make a long story short I had an opportunity to talk...very briefly...to one of the Secret Service agents at the end of the rally.I asked him if the stories of ILLary treating agents like $hit were true. He didn't say a word...didn't nod,or shake his head...but he had a grin on his face which clearly said "you betcha!"

I assume that to give anything other than the most vague and subtle response could have landed him in serious trouble.

I loved Conway’s comment to the press later: “As the sixth richest person in Congress, Nancy Pelosi speaks to everyone as if they’re her staff... her chef, her pilot, her makeup artist...”

Full Title: Pelosi snaps at Conway after tense White House meeting: ‘I don’t talk to staff. I talk directly to the president’ You would have thought that Kellyanne would have learned her lesson in 2016, when she almost got Trump elected president, but Nancy Pelosi swept in at the last minute, did those AWESOME stump speeches in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, and secured the victory for President Hillary.

Partner, we loved this post.

Pelousy never has liked any American Patriots speaking their mind.

I see what you did there :)

Seriously, dont ya know we’re all hers and the other 531 kings’ and queens’ slaves?

Why just recently they exacted 17 million from us to pay for their sexual indiscretions.

Because that’s in the constitution.

I served 24 years six months on active duty. I’ll call any one of them anything I want, and I’m making a list of which graves I want to water before I die. Nothing Nancy can do about that.
