Despite a partial government shutdown with no end in sight, about 30 Democratic members of Congress traveled to Puerto Rico this weekend -- with their families and lobbyists -- for a winter retreat where they also planned to see a special performance of the hit Broadway show “Hamilton.”

Those attending the Congressional Hispanic Caucus BOLD PAC gathering in San Juan also planned to meet Saturday with Puerto Rican officials to discuss ongoing cleanup efforts from Hurricane Maria, according to a report.

“This year’s winter retreat promises to be our most widely attended yet with over 220 guests, including 39 Members of Congress and CHC BOLD PAC supporters expected to attend and participate!” a planning memo said.

Partner, Miss Pelousy is up to the same behavior she had when she became the Speaker of the People's House in 2006. She is one of the worse Speakers of the People's House but what can you say we had Dennis Hastert a Republican Homosexual for 6 years, Democrat Pelousy for 4 years, The Drunkard Republican John Boehner for 5 years, and the Republican Rino Paul Ryan for a long 4 years.

Partner, if my recollection is correct she bought a Boeing 747 and stocked with the best booze money can buy and it was all bought and paid for by the American Taxpayer. It really galls me that she got away with a major crime on the Taxpayers back. A lot of politicians get away with crimes that are on the Taxpayers back.

We need a responsible Speaker of the People's House that has the concerns of the Taxpayers in mind all the time instead of power hungry folks like Democrat Nancy Pelousy.

My great grandfather migrated here as a child from the Hannover area of Germany at the very end of the 1900's.

He had the same problem.

I can't tell you how many times he told me, as I sat on his knee, about the lack of ESL teachers at the school he attended in rural Wisconsin.

To this day I wonder how he and his family ever managed to get by and be successful in the New World.

[skimbell]

Should be 1800’s.
Oh well, you get what I driving at here don't you?

[haircutter]

NO NAMES of the democrats attending??

Has anyone see WHO went?
Just wondering..

[rktman]

"...at the very end of the 1900's". I'm sure you meant 1800's right? 👍🏼👹

Heard Melendez from nj and p- lousy but probably need confirmation. Maybe the "mare" of San Juan will let us know. 😹

Hmm ... The Tonight Show is also -- coincidentally? -- originating from Puerto Rico this week.

The media partnering up with the Democrats? Why, that's impossible!

[rktman]

Yeah, it would almost be like they were in cahoots or something.

Check this from the fox piece:

“Tickets for opening night ranged from $10 to $5,000, according to the Associated Press.

“I have never felt anything like that,” Miranda said of the crowd’s energy, adding that singing the song “Hurricane” was a challenge. “It was very hard to sing that here in Puerto Rico because you know better than I what it is to survive a hurricane. I feel like I’m going back to Maria a little bit every time I sing it.””

$5,000.00? Orchestra seats or box seats. They could give me $5,000 to go and I would opt out.

Collusion!

[rktman]

Only one person guilty of that. Which is so rarely criminal that it doesn’t show up on radar or sonar.

Uh, I think someone needs a “burkini”.

See #23 above.

[rktman]

That’s the ruling class we’ve come to despise. It’s good to see they could squeeze this in between standing in line at the food banks and picking through the DC dumpsters for lunch.
