BREAKING: Pelosi breaks her silence, accuses Trump of outing trip, putting her in danger (VIDEO)
As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News offers the following information published by TheHill.com:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday said President Trump revealed that she and other lawmakers would be making a trip to Afghanistan on a commercial flight, a revelation that made it too dangerous to go forward with the trip.
The White House quickly said it was not behind the leak, and accused Pelosi of lying.
“We weren’t going to go because we had a report from Afghanistan that the president outing out trip had made feet on the ground much more dangerous because it’s a signal to bad actors that we were coming,” Pelosi told reporters.
The article goes on to state the following:
“We never give advance notice of going into a battle area — we just never do,” she said. “Perhaps the president’s inexperience didn’t have him understand that protocol — people around him though should have known that because that’s very dangerous.”

💩 absolutely.

What a crock pot. Pelosi you are not representing our country because you are anti-American. Trump never placed you in harm’s way.
James Bagwell January 18th, 2019 at 12:50 pm
Nancy a dirt bath for you would go along way in security for Americans. No ill will wished upon you but let’s be honest. Your security was never at risk because you were never going anywhere when you had to foot the bill. Windbag!
Deb January 18th, 2019 at 12:51 pm
Only after Trump cancelled the flight did the reason for it become visiting troops. It was always to meet with leaders of those countries. Why are they caravaning to meet with leaders? That’s the President ‘s job. Just trying to undermine the POTUS. Sedition.
Becky January 18th, 2019 at 12:52 pm
The president never said she was taking a commercial flight. He suggested that she could take a commercial flight if she wanted to after he cancelled her government paid and operated flight.
Francine January 18th, 2019 at 12:54 pm
Well Nancy let me tell you something, you put the American people in danger everyday by not securing our borders & why would you of all people go to a war zone, stop your disgusting antics.
Dee Whigham January 18th, 2019 at 12:56 pm
I’m still smiling and laughing every time I think of that short bus ride ! The Dems are pathetic!
Vicki January 18th, 2019 at 12:57 pm
First of all, reports are that staff was scrambling to make commercial reservations over un secure lines 😂 Secondly, according to judicial watch and going back to when you were speaker. You prefer the luxury jets and lots of alcohol. Spouses fly free on military jets, another perk that was canceled and had you all scrambling. Oh well! I urge you all to follow Tom Fitton with judicial watch on twitter. They do the true investigation of our govt!
Jenny Crosley January 18th, 2019 at 12:57 pm
She wasn’t flying commercial! They are so great at talking political. And it took her a day to calm down and blame the PRESIDENT! 😂😂😂😂
Andrea January 18th, 2019 at 1:06 pm
Oh, gee, why would you be in danger? I thought the people loved you. Would it be the people who want border security? The people who want e-verify? People who like to see you do something for Americans instead of illegals. You are such a hate filled b*t*h it is pathetic. I am a Texan and I dispise what you are doing to my state.
Deb January 18th, 2019 at 1:25 pm
Pardon me but I don’t give two shits about your safety Nancy. In the last two years 4,000 Americans have been murdered at the hands of illegals. You care nothing about them.
Anita January 18th, 2019 at 1:26 pm
We could only hope her to be in danger
Debbie January 18th, 2019 at 1:29 pm
Oh I get it ,it only matters when YOU are in danger ! How about doing what is right and fixing our illegal immigration problem like our President asks ?
Yvonne January 18th, 2019 at 1:44 pm
Pilosi conspiracy didn’t work? What a shame. Must try harder next time.
Sheryl January 18th, 2019 at 2:24 pm
Nancy put herself in danger you put the American people in Danger everyday. Don’t blame the President. I agree with my president 100 percent
PH January 18th, 2019 at 8:20 pm
Nancy seems worried that she could have been in danger but doesn’t care about the rest of us being in danger over her lack of funding the wall! What a two-faced hypocrite!!
