On Wednesday, citing disingenuous security concerns, Pelosi sent the president the formal equivalent of a lunchtime high school bully's "You can't sit with us anymore."
The irony of the speaker holding up government funding over border security while simultaneously decrying the lack of security for the speech was apparently lost on CNN, who praised Pelosi's gambit as "a major power move."
Pelosi fails to recognize that in a partial shutdown, essential services remain.
Soon after the ink from Pelosi's letter was dry, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen corrected Pelosi by stating that "The Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Secret Service are fully prepared to support and secure the State of the Union."
Pelosi commands a Capitol Police force with a near half-billion-dollar annual budget.
Pelosi's security detail was able to seamlessly accompany her to Hawaii during her vacation in the early days of the shutdown.
In falsely citing-without evidence-security as the reason for the disinvitation, Pelosi failed to address what changed from when she initially invited the president two weeks ago, when the government was in the same funding predicament.
