What the hell!? This alarms hell out of me.
I remember reading about the 93 total people, only 8 or 9 of which were actual Congress Critters. They mentioned Pelosi's family included on the plane.
The "Source URL" link above is to a Free Republic thread on the topic. That thread provides a CNN link.
The FR thread was posted at 5:24 PM on 01/18/2019 (is it safe to assume PST?). The linked CNN article was "Updated 7:02 PM ET, Fri January 18, 2019". That would have been 4:02 PM PT.
So, today I'm in a discussion about this in a local chit chat group. Several people mention the 93 people. One guy asks for a source for that info. So I go search for one of the articles.
I can't find one. I change search engines and start filtering through the responses. I searched on "nancy pelosi trip cancelled", "nancy pelosi trip friends and family", "nancy pelosi trip friends", "how many people on Pelosi's trip", "pelosi's trip extra people", "pelosi extra people", "93 people pelosi", and finally, just "93 people".
I find, on page 3 of results to one of those queries, a link to The Marshall Report, entitled, "Pelosis Secret Overseas Mission Included 93 Family Members? Why?" That article is apparently based on a comment from "BLUEPRINT" (screen capture posted at the link) which says "ALL Pelosi's children and grandchildren were also booked, totalling 7 congressman (sic) and 93 family members grounded." https://themarshallreport.wordpress.com/2019/01/19/pelosis-secret-overseas-mission-included-93-family-members-why/
Okay, I must conclude one of the following: - The 93 people never existed. - The 93 people happened but the evil minions of the Dem machine have scrubbed their little arses off removing references to them. - The CNN article linked in the FR thread was posted at 8:24 Eastern, AFTER the updated (according to them) time currently on the article. So either the excerpt posted in FR is a blatant lie, or CNN changed their time as well as the article when they updated it.
Can you show me the CNN source?
With all of her money, SanFranNan still trying to soak the taxpayers.
SMH
Who in their right mind would consider taking an untold number of children and grand children to Afghanistan?

Yes. First she says that the SOTU should not take place because the SS and DHS can’t provide sufficient protection at the US capitol, then she books a flight to take 93+ people into the “war zone” (afghanistan) as described by Adam Schiff.
Calling Tom Fitton!
That is not enough luggage for 93 people. Looks like 15 or so bags. Maybe enough for 7 or 8 ppl. Prolly the CODEL. Not the extras.
Hey, I’m entitled to a taxpayer
funded vacation. I don’t have 80+
family members, so it shouldn’t
cost to much.
How many trips has she taken with
her family on our dime ?
I tried to find info also with no luck. Well, I found things but nothing that seemed credible. I don’t believe the 90 something people going. Some “journalist” [I use that word loosely] snapped a pic of Botox Nan at Reagan Airport after POTUS cancelled her plans and she was alone except for a security detail. IF she had her family going on the CODEL with her, how come she was flying alone at Reagan.....where were all her family members? I want to see some proof of all the others supposedly going with the delegation before I believe it.
