BREAKING: Trump to Meet with Congressional Leaders as Shutdown Deadline Nears

 Former U.S. President Donald Trump is set to meet with top congressional leaders on Monday as the threat of a government shutdown looms. The meeting comes after Trump previously canceled a scheduled session with Democratic leaders, intensifying concerns about whether a funding agreement can be reached in time.

The U.S. government faces a shutdown if Congress and the White House fail to agree on a budget deal before the deadline. A shutdown would result in the closure of several federal agencies, suspension of non-essential services, and disruption of payments for millions of federal employees.

Political observers note that the upcoming meeting will be crucial in determining whether both sides can find common ground. The pressure is mounting as lawmakers race against the clock to prevent a crisis that could impact the U.S. economy and public services nationwide.
