House Speaker Nancy Pelosi apparently loathes President Donald Trump so much that she attacked him while he was informing everyone that the world’s number one terrorist had been killed.
While speaking from the White House on Sunday morning, the president revealed that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was dead after a successful U.S. military raid.

Baghdadi took his own life in the back of a dead-end tunnel as our brave U.S. Special Operations forces closed in on the cowardly terrorist leader in a massive raid that took place in a compound in northern Syria.

“Last night the United States brought the world’s number one terrorist leader to justice, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead,” Trump said in an address on Sunday.
He added: “He was the founder and leader of ISIS, the most ruthless and violent terror organization anywhere in the world.”
Trump added that the terrorist leader detonated his suicide vest as U.S. forces cornered him.
“He died after running into a dead-end tunnel, whimpering and crying and screaming all the way,” Trump said.
Trump admittedly did not notify Congress — House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff and Pelosi — of the raid because he feared it would be leaked to the media.
“We notified some; others are being notified as I speak,” Trump said.
“We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like I’ve never seen before,” he continued. “There is no country in the world that leaks like we do and Washington is a leaking machine.”
This sent Nervous Nancy over the edge, as she just could not believe the president wouldn’t tell her and Schiff about the raid.
She also couldn’t resist the urge to take several shots at the president after he just announced his administration killed the most deadly terrorist in the world.
Her full statement reads:
Americans salute the heroism, and acknowledge the work of our partners in the region. We are relieved that no U.S. personnel died in this daring raid.
The death of al-Baghdadi is significant, but the death of this ISIS leader does not mean the death of ISIS. Scores of ISIS fighters remain under uncertain conditions in Syrian prisons, and countless others in the region and around the world remain intent on spreading their influence and committing acts of terror.
This month, the House passed a joint resolution on an overwhelmingly bipartisan 354-60 basis which rejects President Trump’s green-lighting of Turkish aggression into Syria against our Kurdish partners, and calls on him to present a clear strategy to defeat ISIS. The House must be briefed on this raid, which the Russians but not top Congressional Leadership were notified of in advance, and on the Administration’s overall strategy in the region. Our military and allies deserve strong, smart and strategic leadership from Washington.
Despite Pelosi’s veiled shot, Trump’s announcement even earned the praise of Utah GOP Sen. Mitt Romney — a notorious critic of the president.

“Al Baghdadi spread ‘fire and brimstone’ on earth; now he feels it for himself in hell,” Romney wrote. “To all who arranged his change of venue—the intel officers, the President, the warriors—thank you.”
