Speaker Pelosi Set to Censor/Ban State of the Union Speech

President Trump's opportunity to make a state of the union speech before congress is being shot down by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Democrats are the party of censorship these days and apparently Alex Jones being banned from large Internet platforms wasn't enough; they also want to censor and ban the State of the Union speech.

Speaker Pelosi did say the President could submit the speech in writing and presumably some members might get a copy to read. How generous.

The Speaker cited security concerns though Homeland Security said they have the matter in hand. The issue is really about censoring the President's opportunity to say antipathetic political items concerning the border wall and partial government shut down of course. Democrats are used to attacking personally instead of addressing issues and creating party cult loyalty instead of rationally thinking about good ideas independently.

President Trump did at least have the opportunity to postpone another Speaker Pelosi winter travel junket cancelling her Air Force flight to a few countries abroad.
