House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is leading a delegation of members of Congress to the annual international climate summit known as COP25 in Madrid, Spain, next week. While the delegation will include members of both the House and Senate, it will not be bipartisan, as only Democrats will be attending.
"It is a privilege to accompany a high-level Congressional delegation to Spain to combat the existential threat of our time: the climate crisis," Pelosi said in a statement on Saturday.

I assume that she'll be presuming to speak for the entire nation and that she has complete authority to set US foreign policy.

Hey Nancy, who's gonna spin Jerry Nadler's dithering responses as he is challenged in his committee by Republicans picking apart his "witnesses" against Trump? While you and your leftist pals are parading the climate hoax, you could be leading the passage of USMCA and making a real budget for the first time in years. The clown show continues.

I’ll support this, but only if the entire delegation takes a 45 ft. sailboat to get there. After all, they should be following their leader, St. Greta. The North Atlantic should be a real adventure this time of year.

#1 in Nutty Nancy's fevered mind, she runs the country. Remember that she is 2 heartbeats or 2 impeachment from actually doing so.

More Time and TaxPayers Money wasted by the ‘Democrats’! This is no more than a vacation to a warmer climate,
Nancy P. is putting one more Nail in the Coffin of her ‘Legacy’! She is the First Woman to hold The Gavel in the House! She is now an old woman and her final years will be remembered for her War on The Duly Elected President of the United States Donald J. TRUMP 2020 MAGA 🇺🇸

We really need a running total of taxpayer money she has wasted as speaker, the crap she has passed like Obamacare, all her self important trips abroad, the whole impeachment debacle etc... it has to be an astronomical sum and I bet one would be hard pressed to find a single bit of good for the American people that has come from any of it.

Parents when children get unruly take them to the zoo to quieten them down. Nancy takes 'the squad' and other noisy climate change democrats to the Paris climate deal. I would like to see the tab for this one and President Trump make them pay it back to the taxpayers. That would spank old Nancy Pelosi down.

#18, don’t forget her weekly trips back to her mansion in SF and her estate in Napa to spend the weekend at home. Not just the taxpayer cash, but the carbon footprint.

She is an elected congresswoman from the opposition party. How is this NOT undermining official U.S policy?

Collecting donations, Nancy? Can't think of any other reason for her to go there. Same goes for the rest of the delegation. None of them represent the Trump administration.

I hope PDT tweets that they need to make this trip on their own dime. And, if possible, maybe he will issue an edict that Pelosi's plane be grounded and not allowed outside of America.

If this trip is anything more than the usual taxpayer-funded democrat junket then the plane should be shot down as an attempt at treason. This lawlessness has gone far enough.

I remember how sweet it was back in January of this year when President Trump denied the use of military aircraft for a Congressional junket to Afghanistan due to the shutdown. Pelosi had her knickers all in a twist over that.

Maybe this is her swan song trip....she sees the writing on the wall and knows that she'll be losing the majority and her office in 11 months....so why not soak the taxpayers for these "crumbs" one more time?!

Got to jump on the free vacation to Spain. Private jet, first class hotels, decadent dining, and all in the name of saving the planet at taxpayers expense. What dedication concern and caring from the heart. Such nobility and selfless action on the part of Nasty. Too bad she is not concerned with cleaning up the environment in her own back yard.

If only Democrats are going the Democrat party should be paying for the trip not the American taxpayer, many of whom are Republicans.

It is funny (strange) to hear Pelosi called a “leader”. Leaders are those others depend on when they are in trouble and are looking for honest and effective advice to help them out of it. Pelosi as a Leader is someone who has acquired, through government shenanigans, the ability to punish others if they don’t do as she wishes.
