President Trump said Wednesday he’ll delay his State of the Union address until after the government shutdown ends, capping a day of brinkmanship with Nancy Pelosi that saw the House speaker disinvite Trump from addressing a joint session of Congress. Pelosi says the shutdown has left the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security starved for funds and unprepared to simultaneously protect all three branches of government under one roof. At the White House, President Trump responded angrily.

President Donald Trump: “The State of the Union speech has been canceled by Nancy Pelosi because she doesn’t want to hear the truth. She doesn’t want the American public to hear what’s going on. And she’s afraid of the truth. And the super-left Democrats, the radical Democrats—what’s going on in that party is shocking.”
