POTUS tells ⁦@SpeakerPelosi⁩ he is canceling her trip to Belgium, Egypt and Afghanistan because of the shutdown
More precisely the president is not allowing @SpeakerPelosi and the congressional delegation to use US military aircraft to fly to Belgium (to meet with @NATO leaders) and to Afghanistan (to meet with servicemembers).
3/ A White House official told CNN that Pelosi and the delegation are welcome to fly *commercial* to Afghanistan. Which is a remarkable statement given that the WH just announced this trip to the world, a violation of all security protocols.
