U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was set to hold talks with National Assembly Speaker Kim Jin-pyo in Seoul on Thursday amid heightened regional tensions in the wake of her high-profile visit to Taiwan.

Pelosi arrived in Seoul on Wednesday night from Taiwan where she reaffirmed unwavering U.S. commitment to the island amid angry protests from China. Beijing announced live-fire military drills around Taiwan in protest.

On Thursday, she was to meet with Kim for talks about regional security, economic cooperation and other pending issues. Also attending the meeting will be the floor leaders of the ruling People Power Party and the main opposition Democratic Party.

Her two-day trip also includes a visit to the inter-Korean truce village of Panmunjom later Thursday.

How much is this little trip costing the taxpayers? As if she couldn’t have zoomed the meeting or just texted.

I wonder why the Biden Rats want her out of the country?

Are they hoping for an “incident?”

Speaker Kim Jin-pyo: So, Madame Speaker may I offer you a limo ride back to your hotel?

Speaker Nancy Pelosi: No thanks. I’m takin’ the Seoul Train.
