House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building – Confirms State of Union Speech Cancellation…

It looks like Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi has no intention of allowing the House chamber to be used for a State of the Union address.

Speaker Pelosi has informed the House Sergeant at Arms that no executive branch official will be permitted entry into the Capitol building.

Earlier Fox News reported Pelosi cancelled a walkthrough last week, and a second request for reconsideration from the White House is expected to meet the same fate. The House Speaker controls who is, and who is not, permitted entry to the House floor. Until Speaker Pelosi calls for a vote to support a joint session of congress, the President cannot enter the chamber.

Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley discusses the status of the current shutdown negotiations and the likelihood a SOU address will have to take place outside Washington DC.

“I believe she is of the impression he has to make the SOTU presentation directly to her/the House “

I believe you’re correct. Another confirmation that she’s never read the Constitution.

That’s not how it works. Congress is sovereign in their domain.

Keep in mind that the House can vote to overrule the Speaker. It’s happened before. Dems have only a 17 vote majority. Highly unlikely that 17 Dems wouldn’t desert Pelosi over SOTU.

How about cutting off her fresh delivery of fresh Hawaii flowers each day to her office? Her lunch meals? Her plane?
