President Donald Trump has invited a bipartisan group of congressional leaders to the White House on Wednesday to reportedly to discuss the government shutdown.
"Sourc [sic] confirms a 'briefing' but not a [meeting] Wed at WH on border security," Fox News correspondent Chad Pergram reported on Tuesday. "Hill sources indicate they have invited the top 2 [leaders] of each party from each chamber for the new Congress. 8 total. Would be Pelosi, Hoyer, McCarthy, Scalise, McConnell, Thune, Schumer and Durbin."
Within minutes, Pergram suggested that the meeting could be cancelled.
Casting further doubt on the meeting, Pergram later quoted a congressional aide, who called the meeting a "stunt."
