After Donald Trump declared the he would give his State of the Union address in the Capitol over her objections, Nancy Pelosi has hit back.
After Donald Trump sent a letter to Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday, one telling her that — despite her objections — he would deliver his State of the Union address from the House Chamber on January 29 no matter what, as CNN reported, Pelosi quickly responded. She has refused to allow Trump to enter the House of Representatives to give his annual address.
Under congressional rules, before any president can deliver a State of the Union address to a joint session of congress — according to an analysis by McClatchy News — both the House and the Senate must vote to approve a “concurrent resolution” calling the two bodies together for the combined session.
But the Speaker of the House must call for a vote on the resolution, and in her letter to Trump on Wednesday, Pelosi told Trump that as long as the partial government shutdown remains in effect, she will not allow a vote on the resolution — giving Trump no audience for his speech, as TPM reported.
The Honorable Nancy Pelosi
Speaker of the House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Madam Speaker:
Thank you for your letter of January 3, 2019, sent to me long after the Shutdown began, inviting me to address the Nation on January 29th as to the State of the Union. As you know, I had already accepted your kind invitation, however, I then received another letter from you dated January 16, 2019, wherein you expressed concerns regarding security during the State of the Union Address due to the Shutdown. Even prior to asking, I was contacted by the Department of Homeland Security and the United States Secret Service to explain that there would be absolutely no problem regarding security with respect to the event. They have since confirmed this publicly.
Accordingly, there are no security concerns regarding the State of the Union Address. Therefore, I will be honoring your invitation, and fulfilling my Constitutional duty, to deliver important information to the people and Congress of the United States of America regarding the State of our Union.
I look forward to seeing you on the evening on January 29th in the Chamber of the House of Representatives. It would be so very sad for our Country if the State of the Union were not delivered on time, on schedule, and very importantly, on location!

Washington D.C., Jan 22, 2019 / 03:58 pm (CNA).- While chanting and playing ceremonial drums, a group of Native American rights activists reportedly led by Nathan Phillips attempted Jan. 19 to enter Washington, D.C.’s Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception during a Saturday evening Mass.
The group of 20 demonstrators was stopped by shrine security as it tried to enter the church during its 5:15 pm Vigil Mass, according to a shrine security guard on duty during the Mass.
I began following this person about a month ago. They only follow one person: Trump. And they speak like Q does. Some speculate it is the account for JFK Jr. Would not surprise me. Anyway here’s what they linked tonight….The 1959 puzzled me. I searched and found nothing hugely significant. However someone said Eisenhower re-organized the Dept. of Defense in 1959.
And I think I got the rest of the message. Giving the State of the Union outside of D.C. would mean the Republic is back. D.C. is a district – that’s where the “fake” corporate government resides…giving the State of the Union within the recognized USA could signify “real” government instead of “fake” government? Although we also need to remove the Corporation and return to the Law of the Land.
Fake government. Fake news. Fake realm. These monsters deplore authenticity and the truth. But it is here. It has Risen. And it is reclaiming and restoring all that was almost ruined.

Outside of Washington? First the State of the Union….then? Plans for functions to take place within actual "U.S.A." Fake news….Fake government? Not since 1959, It's time. #qarmy#qanon#WWG1WGApic.twitter.com/ksIeLyxE3D
Editor Victoria’s Comment ~ Didn’t hear about this one did we? And looksie who voted Nay ~ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Some are speculating McConnell would not take up such a bill and POTUS would have vetoed it as he has said no budget of any kind until the wall is funded…and such a bill below would (allegedly) open up the government. If that is the case though the DEMS would be all over this one with YEA votes. And it appears to me the bill was introduced by a Democrat (NYC). No solid answer on this one at the moment…
Big deal that never got reported:
Last week, House GOP voted to pay federal employees their 1st paycheck of 2019, despite shutdown. Only 6 Dems voted with us. It failed.
Dem priority is not paying workers or opening gov't. It is opposing Trump. https://t.co/i9TKGIjRnY
There is one summary for H.J.Res.28. Bill summaries are authored by CRS.
Shown Here:
Introduced in House (01/14/2019)
Further Additional Continuing Appropriations Act, 2019
This joint resolution provides continuing FY2019 appropriations to several federal agencies through the earlier of February 28, 2019, or the enactment of the applicable appropriations legislation.
It is known as a continuing resolution (CR) and ends the partial government shutdown that began after the existing CR expired on December 21, 2018, because seven of the remaining FY2019 appropriations bills have not been enacted.
(Five of the FY2019 appropriations bills were enacted last year, including
the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2019;
the Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019;
the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019;
the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2019; and
the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019.)
Additionally, the CR has the effect of extending through February 28, 2019, several authorities and programs that were extended in prior CRs, including
the Violence Against Women Act,
the authority for the Environmental Protection Agency to collect and spend certain fees related to pesticides,
the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, and
several authorities related to immigration.

I checked on earthquakes and there was a 6.7 10 hours ago on Prince Edward Island. Likely too long ago to show this kind of a read. Someone said the earth was ringing like a bell again about an hour ago but no clue as to the cause. Still digging….
editor victoria’s comment ~ my neighbor, who is almost 80, walks barefoot daily – regardless of the weather. her diet isn’t so good and her other personal habits not so good either but i swear she is healthy as an ox otherwise. i have thought it has to be how she walks on the earth barefoot.
This short documentary will blow your mind. Grounding is not just a trendy technique for calming down it's a way to prevent and cure diseases.You're hearing a lot these days the word 'grounding' , but do you really know what it means and why is VITAL to practice for your health? Here's the scientific explanation. #science #grounding #earthingvia Uplifted Life.
I’ve continued to reflect on the moon and its influence on us. Its purpose. This simulated object is not something that serves us – we serve it (when we give it energy especially our focused energy). I am going to say something that both repels people from my site but also brings in readers who say things to me like “YES! I thought I was the only one.”
This latest mass meditation on the full moon and the eclipse was to give that object more energy. It had nothing to do with freeing us. Why do I feel this? Because we have had so many full moon meditations to release us from this prison and from our past, we should have been free of it all by now. I know the concept of where we are and who we are and how to be free are more complex than that. I continue to ponder this situation seeking answers from within.
Full Moons create anxiety and for some, manic behavior. Chaos. Energies zapping us to “purge” what is within. A totally unpleasant experience. Why is that? If the moon is our friend, shouldn’t the full moon bring us lasting peace? Lasting liberation? And even at that, what IS a “full” moon? It only appears full, crescent, etc. to our eyes. I don’t visit my friends to bring them discomfort. My intent is to bring joy, companionship, support. That is what LOVE DOES.
It’s been said (and in which I agree – or at least I can find no reason not to see truth) that the moon has been used as the reincarnation trap. We leave our bodies. We get “sucked” towards the moon (the white light) – we get our experiences wiped then we get tossed back in to a new body for another lovely new experience.
So I was thinking of how I felt the past couple of days with the full moon (and the eclipse). HORRIBLE emotionally. Mentally. I felt a lot of agitation. Argumentative. Easily triggered. I pulled myself out of this last night and said “this is NOT who I AM”. I felt we were bombarded with frequencies from that thing and just like this matrix energy system, if we give the moon (or whatever fake object they have planted here) focus and support without question, some get a reward. Like a token in a game. Or a rat in a cage gets its cheese when it does what its masters want him to. I don’t like saying this but for now this is how I am seeing this 3d experience.
I have noticed for myself in the past when I would give my feminine energies of honor and love to the moon, I would feel blessed. Serene. And yet now I have noticed when I have questioned all of that and no longer participate in full moon ceremonies, I feel yuck. Coincidence?
If the moon were truly supportive, this would not have been my experience. Such a consciousness would seek to gently and lovingly guide one back to join in and focus w/It. Right?
I am wondering as well if the moon keeps those energies of past experiences alive within us. I could be absolutely wrong on this one but again, this is how I am seeing this and feeling this. It has energy cords (invisible…or perhaps visible to certain eyes as well)…attached to us. Each of us, unique “codes”. When the call for another “purge” is sent out, those of us most in tune with the experience of purging feel the old stuff come up. We cry all over again. Release. Forgive. And aaahhh we move on. Ignore it (as I have been doing) – and the “pounding” within to stir things up feels, for me that is, even more intense.
Only to repeat all over again.
My question: How many “times” does one need to “purge” in order to be free of past pain?
Perhaps I am being guided to dig deeper and really feel that every thing that creates pain and fear in this realm is an illusion.
I did an experiment this morning – totally without my ego mind or human brain involved. This came from within. I had an experience that often leaves me weeping – longing for home, the old real ways I once experienced – that sort of weeping. Only this time I felt that Me within and “out there” guide me to just feel the love of the experience instead of just focusing on the energy of longing. The experience that normally left me weeping had me feeling so happy and serene I giggled like a child. It. Was. AWESOME!
Later on as I shared it with my mate, I felt a pull on my body to go back to the energy of longing and I could literally feel my energy SINKING and being sucked in – as in quick sand. NO. I immediately put a stop to that and said “NO” and was able to let it go. For the most part. Later on in the shower I had a crying experience and then made myself stop. No, I said. I’ve already cried over this. I WILL NOT ENGAGE IN DOING THIS.
Stop feeding what the machine wants – it has to wither away.
While I am not exactly sure HOW we all actually literally get out of here and change this realm over into what so many of us have seen, experienced, longed for – I do feel our days of doing all of these purging things can be over if we simply refuse to feed the code within us that, again just feeling this – this code that says “keep the purging going continuously until…..”.
Doesn’t such energies feed the matrix machine?
I feel it does.
Think of it this way. We know this realm and the systems that are a part of it are designed to keep us afraid. Traumatized. Focused away from love and the like.
And yet, again, like I don’t know exactly HOW we “get out” (lots of theories I have shared here – I align and continue to align most w/Lisa Harrison and Yellow Rose) – I have this quiet feeling within I don’t need to participate any longer in my experiences of purging and feeling things and experiences that DO NOT BRING ME LOVE and JOY. And that brings up the part of addiction and how I also feel many of not most or all of us have a level of addiction w/in us that keeps us stuck in the past. More on that perhaps at another “time”.
So while perhaps I may still be a part of this matrix system – for now – I can at least take another step in my refusal to participate IN it. Maybe it can be and is as simple as saying “No been down that road” (just like in The Matrix Movie) – then giving any resistance Love and Forgiveness.
Does this make sense?
And one last word – on the mechanics of “how” to break free from an energy net – matrix grid: We need a Spiritual MacGyver.
Any volunteers? [wp-svg-icons icon=”smiley” wrap=”i”]
