So far, so good.

WTF? :

Pelosi's office says this is not them officially rescinding the SOTU invite, just making a proposal.

WTF II? :

Standing strong! :

Hoyer said on CNN that the SOTU is off, but his spox clarifies: "He hadn’t read the actual letter and misunderstood." Still just a proposal from Pelosi, not a formal disinvitation.

Cancel the damn asshole's propaganda speech -- shut him down as long as the government is shut down. Stop equivocating.

OTOH, elsewhere:

America: “We have reached that point where we are too stupid and broken to properly govern ourselves.”
Great Britain: “Hold my ale. And this crumpet. And these things that you call chips but are actually crisps.”
