[sneakypete]

Trump walked into a trap. Now the Speaker can play the Impeachment card.

You need to place a comma after "insulting".

"100% Bullshit."  I don't respond to your (Cannon) posts, however you got this one right.  Your posts are "100% Bullshit", full of sexual connotations, disgusting direct sexual content, and every known filthy curse word.  In my opinion, you have no intrinsic value on this forum.

A little surprised that a fragile lady would use the word 'bullshit' twice but that's just me.

Frank can go overboard but I think he is a fun addition to this forum and I enjoy his posts.

It makes it even better that Schifty was one of the Donks on that bus. I bet this really chapped his ass.

Yep.  If it looks like an obnoxious little weasel and talks like an obnoxious little weasel ... could it actually be an obnoxious little weasel?

"In the middle of the night, the State Department's Diplomatic Security Service provided an updated threat assessment detailing that the President announcing this sensitive travel had significantly increased the danger to the delegation and to the troops, security, and other officials supporting the trip," Hammill said. "This morning, we learned that the administration had leaked the commercial travel plans as well."

Why should Pelosi and a cast of thousands go on a completely nonessential and extremely costly overseas trip (not even counting the cost of the booze aboard) instead of staying in D.C., doing their jobs and trying to resolve the government shutdown? You'd think the 800,000 federal employees she claims to support would finally get the message that she and her fellow Dems are full of merde.

If that was True...
I could never post anything, ever, at all?

LOL - that's beautiful.

Hey, Nancy --

@mountaineer

Yeah you would but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that to happen if I were you!

Judicial Watch: Documents Detail Nancy Pelosi’s $185,000 CODEL to Italy and Ukraine in 2015

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it obtained documents through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Air Force detailing $134,587.81 plus $50,000 for an advance of funds for an “escort officer” for a total of $184.587.81 for then-House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) Congressional delegation (CODEL) to Italy and Ukraine in 2015.

Judicial Watch filed a December 2015 FOIA lawsuit after the Air Force failed to respond to an August 2015 request ( Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Defense (No 1:15-cv-02236)) for:

All records regarding mission taskings of flights escorting members of Congress

All records concerning transportation costs for transporting members of Congress

All passenger manifests (DD-2131) for transporting members of Congress

All weekly travel reports for members of Congress

The documents show that from July 30 to August 6, Pelosi took a trip to Milan, Rome and Naples, Italy, and Kiev, Ukraine, for herself, her husband , several members of congress and their spouses. The Italy trip included Milan, Rome and Naples with visits to the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, Duomo and viewing Da Vinci’s “Last Supper.”

The documents also show the Air Force’s negative response to a Pelosi staff request for a specific crew for Pelosi’s flight. An official notes that it: “would be a disastrous precedent to set even if it were possible.” The Air Force further points out: “Our ARC crews have plenty to balance already with military duties and their civilian employers.”

The documents also detail a CODEL trip for Senator Cory Gardner (R-CO), who traveled commercial flights to Asia , including Tokyo and Okinawa, Japan; Seoul, Korea; plus Beijing and Hong Kong, China. This trip, with flights and per diems, cost at least $26,009.03 .

“Speaker Pelosi has a demonstrated record of abusing the perks of office that give her access to military luxury travel paid for by taxpayers,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

Judicial Watch previously uncovered that Pelosi’s military travel cost the United States Air Force $2,100,744.59 over one two-year period — $101,429.14 of which was for in-flight expenses, including food and alcohol.

Judicial Watch’s work exposing Pelosi’s travel abuses resulted in her successor John Boehner declining to use Air Force luxury jets to travel to his Ohio congressional district.

It is a Democrat group of legislators going to a war zone to know what is going on there so they have a better understanding of what is needed there in terms of legislation.  Senators went there a week or so ago for the same reason.  Going to a war zone puts one life in danger - it is not for fun and play.

Last time she went she not only kissed ass to Bashir al Assad and the mad Mullahs in Iran...she came back calling General David Petreaus a liar.

I suspect she was going to do the same on this trip.

No doubt. Before or after she expressed her deep, deep appreciation for the military?

Exactly right.
