On Friday night Speaker Nancy Pelosi was spotted at Reagan International Airport in Washington DC flying commercial as the president suggested.

This was after President Trump grounded Speaker Pelosi and Democrats taking a “public relations tour” to trash the administration in Europe and Afghanistan.

On Friday Sen. Joni Ernst (R_IA) proposed legislation to force lawmakers to stay in Washington and meet twice per day until their work is done on national budgets.

I couldn't agree more.  Thousands are not getting paid, and she takes off without so much of an attempt to rectify the situation.

In Trump's State of the Union, I hope he points out the DEM leadership's failure to do her job.

@mystery-ak

You expect them to stay here and earn their salaries?

Good luck with that one!

And Pro Rate their pay.

Deduct every day of any shut down from their checks. No retroactive pay.

If they can't/won't do their jobs, We don't pay them.

I don't agree with this.

Rarely does any good come with Congress in session.

I hear you but during a crisis that they created, the dims shouldn't be cruising around on fake overseas missions. They should be in Washington annoying us.

The Rats won't even pay their Interns.

Keep them in DC, Without Pay, and no making it up to them after the shut down ends.

Let's see the cheap bleeps howl about this.

No, but it's a good dig.
