Dear Mr. President:
On January 3rd, it was my privilege as Speaker to invite you to deliver the State of the Union address on January 29th. The Constitution calls for the President to “from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union.” During the 19th Century and up until the presidency of Woodrow Wilson, these annual State of the Union messages were delivered to Congress in writing. And since the start of modern budgeting in Fiscal Year 1977, a State of the Union address has never been delivered during a government shutdown.
In September 2018, Secretary Nielsen designated State of the Union Addresses as National Special Security Events (NSSEs), recognizing the need for “the full resources of the Federal Government to be brought to bear” to ensure the security of these events. The extraordinary demands presented by NSSEs require weeks of detailed planning with dozens of agencies working together to prepare for the safety of all participants.
The U.S. Secret Service was designated as the lead federal agency responsible for coordinating, planning, exercising, and implementing security for National Special Security Events by Public Law 106-544, December 19, 2000. However, both the U.S. Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security have not been funded for 26 days now — with critical departments hamstrung by furloughs.
Sadly, given the security concerns and unless government re-opens this week, I suggest that we work together to determine another suitable date after government has re-opened for this address or for you to consider delivering your State of the Union address in writing to the Congress on January 29th.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
NANCY PELOSI
Speaker of the House

tl;dr: You might want to have a functional government with paid security people before you go out in public. Otherwise, keep cowering inside the White House and just write us a letter.

You misspelled "say a bunch of things that anyone can disprove with a simple Internet search"
I'm sure he'll have fun talking about how Eastasia is building a new army and giving him money is the only way to stop it.

You never did finish high school did you. Nancy is 2nd in line to be our president in case Trump strokes out or or or
What is the presidential line of succession?
The current Presidential Succession Act was adopted in 1947, and last revised in 2006. The line of succession follows the order of Vice President, Speaker of the House of Representatives, President pro tempore of the Senate, and then the eligible heads of federal executive departments who form the president's Cabinet.
If Trump gives that speech in person he has to by law do it in Nancy's House of Representatives.

Sure he can but only IF he is invited to the House of Reps to give it. Otherwise he has to do it in writing, which is also an approved method by law.
If he stops trying to build his version of the Berlin Wall, then no problem. Nancy will invite him. Otherwise the door is closed to him.

Two hours away for the 27th day of the shut down. If what you said were true then Trump would have his 5 Billion boondoggle.
Pelosi is going to twist and turn Trump inside out.
OK so now that I have proved my point. Bert I notice all the people here are begging you to get work. Your current sexual attraction of Trump is not only unhealthy - You Yes You are not paying your way to support Trump with Income taxes on wages Again. If you were a quality Trump supporter you wood yes wood get work and pay your way.

It ain't the 5 Billion - It's 25 Billion. And the Law says people have a right to approach the border and ask for Immunity for good cause. That is the LAW.
Wall will not stop that one bit. AND keep in mind the Border into Canada is almost totally WIDE Open. Some crossings have a shack with a telephone you pick up to talk to a border agent. Tons and Tons of places you just walk over and even unaware you have crossed the border.
Also almost daily I see Border agents in cars and on foot here at Beach because so many come in via boats or dingy. And making Tunnels is just a daily adventure LoL

R Constitution demands it.
George Washington delivered the first regular annual message before a joint session of Congress on January 8, 1790, in New York City, then the provisional U.S. capital. In 1801, Thomas Jefferson discontinued the practice of delivering the address in person, regarding it as too monarchical (similar to the Speech from the Throne). Instead, the address was written and then sent to Congress to be read by a clerk until 1913 when Woodrow Wilson re-established the practice despite some initial controversy. However, there have been exceptions to this rule. Presidents during the latter half of the 20th century[who?] have sent written State of the Union addresses. The last President to do this was Jimmy Carter in 1981, after his defeat by Ronald Reagan and days before his term ended.
R Constitution demands it.
The formal basis for the State of the Union Address is from the U.S. Constitution: The President “shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” Article II, Section 3, Clause 1.

I don't think Pelosi was planning a vacation in Afghanistan. I think Trump was just trying find something to "take" from her. Trump better ground Mitch McConnell while he's at it if he wants anything moving in Congress. I don't think Pelosi is the stumbling block here.
Also, nice to see the shutdown won't stop Melania from flying around Florida in government planes.
