WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump will meet with the top four congressional leaders at the White House on Monday as the clock draws nearer to a potential government shutdown, one White House and four congressional officials told NBC News.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., along with House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., are expected to attend.

The development comes after Trump abruptly canceled a planned meeting with Democratic leaders on Thursday, at the urging of Johnson and Thune. The president at the time called Democratic demands “unserious and ridiculous.”

Since then, Jeffries and Schumer have been trading very public barbs with Trump over the looming government shutdown and Democrats’ demands to attach health care policies to the temporary funding bill.

Jeffries and Schumer issued a joint statement Saturday evening.

“President Trump has once again agreed to a meeting in the Oval Office,” the Democratic leaders said. “As we have repeatedly said, Democrats will meet anywhere, at any time and with anyone to negotiate a bipartisan spending agreement that meets the needs of the American people. We are resolute in our determination to avoid a government shutdown and address the Republican healthcare crisis. Time is running out.”

Two major residential developments in Hong Kong saw tepid sales over the weekend despite a slow recovery in the city’s property market, showing that buyer sentiment has yet to fully rebound even as developers strive for higher profit margins amid a stabilisation in home prices, according to analysts.

“Developers are now testing the waters” by pricing new projects at market rates, aligning with average prices in nearby developments or slightly higher, said Joseph Tsang, chairman of JLL Hong Kong. “But it seems like the market is still expecting more discounts, as sentiment has yet to recover, which is reflected in the sales performance.”
