The Princes wanted to cancel SOTU because of a concern for "security." Secret Service said they've got it covered. Can't wait to watch her fuming over this move!

Here's Schiffless Adam being kicked off the bus he was taking to fly around and fritter away taxpayer money with Princess Nancy. Apparently they were already en route to the flight when they got the word the flight was grounded by POTUS.
Also I read a short time ago that the Senate has offered to have the SOTU there if the Princess refuses to hold to recent tradition. Personally, I'd hold it at the White House with cameras showing an empty House, or half-empty if the Senators and SCOTUS are allowed to show up.

Paper in this area reported this with headline reading: "Pelosi Cancels Trip" followed by usual slanted news article complete with omitted facts.

She could still go. Commercial. Trump even wrote than in his letter.
She claims she WAS going commercial. So why didn't she go?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Friday canceled a visit to Afghanistan, accusing the White House of leaking commercial travel plans to the war zone after President Donald Trump denied her and other Democrats access to a military aircraft for a seven-day foreign trip.
“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 on Friday. “The fact that they would leak that we were flying commercial is a danger not only to us but to other people.
It is “very irresponsible on the part of the president,” Pelosi said of the purported leak. She would not answer how she learned that the White House had leaked the information.
In a statement, the White House denied leaking the speaker’s flight plans, calling the accusation “a flat out lie.”
That's probably where the paper got their fake story from.
The fact is the flight was canceled by Trump on their way to board it, riding a bus marked Air Force, with Air Force escorts. They then returned to the Capitol where they steamed and stewed and plotted all day. Their luggage was returned to the Capitol on carts marked with Air Force insignia and other markings. Period.
The only mention Trump made of commercial flights was that they could still take those if they wanted to continue. This all happened yesterday, so they couldn't have taken the time to get commercial flights scheduled, had Trump find out about those plans, then Trump leak those plans.
The DemocRATs are insanely mad and don't want to look to the public like they were snookered. They'd rather look even more insane (if that's possible) by making up ridiculous tales about making decisions they couldn't have made if they'd thought of it.

In case you were wondering what the abbreviation on the cart meant. It doesn't stand for this, but what is stated here is absolute fact as far as what they're used for.
A lot of trips to Thailand were used for that very thing around the time of Viet Nam. Before I arrived loads of congressional flights landed there under the false claim is was to study the situation going on in Viet Nam. By the time I got there that had pretty much stopped. But the military guys regularly made excuses to fly aircraft in that would be leaving with no military cargo or personnel on the return trip. They'd load them up with gold, Mamasan and papasan chairs, all sorts of tables, futons, and other furniture. None of it ever had any import duties and was given away or sold for 8-10 times what it cost in Thailand.

Poor thing!
PELOSI FLIES COMMERCIAL! Speaker Pelosi Spotted at Reagan Airport – Flees DC as Trump Stays at White House
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) was spotted walking through Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport late Friday afternoon with a carry-on bag on wheels. Pelosi was accompanied by at least one aide and a security detail. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump remained at the White House prepared to negotiate with Democrats on funding border wall security to reopen the partial shutdown federal government.
Her goal for leaving the country was to leave the government shutdown and simultaneously not have to listen to her people (the government employees out of work) complain about it.
The freshmen are going after her. Celebrities are going after her. Some of the workers have already started going after her. Even CNN filming people acting like they're dying because one paycheck may be late isn't helping. (The truth is, they had a partial paycheck just a few days ago for the 16 hours they worked just before the shutdown, which was part of a new pay period right after their last one on 2018. The media won't tell you that part, though.) The pressure is mounting and she wanted to escape. And do some shopping and drinking on the taxpayer dime at the same time. Trump destroyed that game.
This really irks her. I promise. She said last time she was House dictator that she is entitled to Air Force flights back and forth to California because of who she is and the position she holds. I seriously doubt she's the first to abuse it. But I guarantee she's the first (and only) to demand it under any and all circumstance. So this really sticks in her craw.

I remember well the discussions about the Princess' travel back and forth to her district back then. She believes it is her right to demand it (it isn't). She says she's equal to Trump (she's not). She believes since he has an aircraft and she's equal, she's owed one, too (she isn't).
The whole reason she wanted to be speaker again is for all of the free travel for her and her entourage (this last trip that was canceled was for 93 congressional members and their families - only 7 of the 93 were congressmen) and military escorts to her home and back every week. Those out-of-country trips are always 95% duty-free shopping with one little side trip to someplace unnecessary to make it look like important business.
