Pelosi wants Trump to delay the State of the Union or do it in writing.
Finally a SOTU from Twitter

Just another example of what the alt right lies and empty rhetoric get you. Dysfunctional government. The right sold people a bunch of lies and then disappeared, leaving a disaster in their wake.
The only thing that makes people angrier than not getting what they say they want is getting what they say they want.
Pelosi is awesome. Sticking it to Trump where it hurts most. His ability to bulls*** the public on national TV.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC from now on, or Cortez) is on the House Financial Services Committee. She'll be able to grill Wall Street CEOs. LOL.
Brainwashed, and lied to, by the right and then left out to dry. Do you see a pattern forming here?
Its crazy that so many wanted someone else as Speaker. Hardly the time to have someone that doesn't know what they are doing in the role.

Yep. Many republicans are compromised. They took loads of money from the nra which, as it seems, to have been wholly funded by Russia.

Trump told then-White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly and then-Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney that he did not want a single dollar going to Puerto Rico, because he thought the island was misusing the money and taking advantage of the government, according to a person with direct knowledge of the discussions who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive internal deliberations. Instead, he wanted more of the money to go to Texas and Florida, the person said.

They didn't lie. They never lie. Reality, however, is often wildly inaccurate. #Drumpf'd
Coward!

House floor erupts after lawmaker shouts ‘Go back to Puerto Rico’
The House floor erupted Thursday after Congress adjourned for the week when an unidentified Republican congressman yelled a controversial and potentially racially charged remark across the aisle as Democratic Rep. Tony Cárdenas was at the podium.
“Go back to Puerto Rico!” the lawmaker shouted, punctuating a stream of Republican whooping and hollering at the Democratic majority for holding a voice vote — instead of the normal roll call vote — to pass a continuing resolution that would reopen nine Cabinet departments through Feb. 28
Texas Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee and other Democrats in the chamber shot out of their seats demanding to know who shouted the comment.
Cárdenas walked over to the Republican side of the aisle and huddled with some GOP lawmakers, but none stepped forward to admit they had shouted the remark.
“It came from the other side of the chamber. ... We don’t know who it is,” Jackson Lee said, declining to speculate on who might have been responsible.
