Pelosi One Flying Her Family Around The Country


That United States Air Force 757 that Emporess Pelosi demanded upon her ascension to Speaker of the House hasn't just been flying her grace around. She's been using to fly family around. That plane cost $18,000 per hour to fly - and that doesn't include the in flight booze, which has cost the taxpayers over $100,000 since she took office.

Using Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, Judicial Watch uncovered thousands of pages of travel documents related to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s use of military aircraft.

What hasn’t been revealed so far is that military aircraft are being used to shuttle Pelosi’s kids and grandkids between DC and San Francisco without any Congressional representatives even onboard! Put simply, the United States Air Force is serving as a multi-billion dollar chauffeur- and baby-sitting service for Nancy Pelosi’s kids and grandkids — presumably because commercial travel is beneath the families of the autocrats.


Update here.

I saw a laughable defense of Nancy Pelosi on one newspaper website (sorry I can't remember where) that claimed that her plane did not seat 200 as conservatives claimed. It only seated 50, because it was configured all business class. In any event, the documents are out and it can't simply be swept under the rug anymore.
