The Tables Turn on Pelosi and the Media
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/01/the_tables_turn_on_pelosi_and_the_media.html#ixzz5dAplUWUP
Saturday was National Popcorn Day, but I’ve been nibbling on popcorn all week as Nancy Pelosi learned a lesson about presidential power and the media was gut checked by the special prosecutor. I haven’t had this much fun since election night 2016.... While she might have thought otherwise, the power of the commander-in-chief is far greater than that of the speaker of the House, and the humiliating way this was brought home to the congressional equivalent of Maerose Prizzi (h/t Michael Walsh) was something. She anticipated that she and her posse of cronies and their families (reports of a ninety-some entourage in all) would hop a military plane for a free trip to Brussels, Afghanistan, and Egypt, doubtless with fawning media coverage, leaving the president to sit alone in the White House hoping fruitlessly they’d toddle in there to negotiate an end to the shutdown. Reports vary as to whether she was on the tarmac or on her way there when the president cancelled the flight as incompatible during a shutdown when federal workers were not being paid and illegal aliens were continuing to invade.... The president twisted the knife, suggesting she was free to fly commercial, which served as a reminder of the enormous tab she ran up on such flights the last time she was speaker. She thought she had the upper hand in this. She learned she certainly didn’t, and was last seen at Reagan Airport, with one aide and a single security agent, heading out of town to somewhere on a commercial flight. The president cancelled his own trip to Davos and required other similar travel on military airplanes be made only at the approval of the secretary of defense until there is a budget he can sign that provides for a secure border barrier.... Meanwhile, there’s some big real news that the major media studiously avoid -- like what appears to be a major rounding-up of crooks in Illinois. (Ed Burke, a fifty-year alderman, was just indicted for extortion.) The latest arrest is of a DEA agent charged with conspiring to traffic guns and drugs with an international gang.

Queen Pelosi and her Progressive Marxist Socialist Globalists have become a political road block. The deplorables in the hinterland fly commercial. Now Pelosi and the elite have been moved to the status of a deplorable and the President never even had to state that. It was obvious. They can't stand it.

By informing Pelosi and her Congressional retinue to stay home and negotiate DJT actually let her make the point that the government shutdown was not the big deal that the LSM would have the public to believe.
Pres. Trump contemplated they would attempt to do this... he could go on national TV now and honestly say that he has tried to get Democrats to the table, but they refuse everything...so his next step is to close the border and declare a National Emergency and get the Military/Corps of Engineers to begin building that border wall?
The media complains about DJT, 24/7 and they can't lay a glove on him. President Trump, has now become a force of nature by rewriting the rules of politics, has not only put the LSM in their place with the term "Fake News", he has highlighted the actions of the elite like Nancy Pelosi, who gorge themselves on the public dime, while the government is shut down. In his spare time he has dispensed with many elite like FBI employees Comey, McCabe, Baker, Ohr, Strzok and Page.
The cabal infiltrated by Obama and his PMS criminals into the DOJ, FBI, and 17 intelligence agencies from 2009 have been out in force to get him since before he was elected and they haven’t touched him. They have failed several times to usurp the presidency till now.
