“Speaker Paul Ryan will not be available to answer your questions today about his surrender to Donald Trump,” the “media advisory” from Pelosi’s office reads.

“Speaker Ryan has cancelled his regular Wednesday press conference so you don’t ask him about Donald Trump’s racist commentary against a federal judge, and why, ahead of their national security agenda rollout tomorrow, the House GOP wants to hand the nuclear codes to a person who engages in textbook racism.”

Ryan's office had announced that a regular Wednesday question-and-answer session with reporters would be canceled due to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s address to a joint session of Congress. Ryan is hosting Modi at the Capitol.

At a Tuesday press conference meant to unveil the House's plan to combat poverty, Ryan instead faced a barrage of questions regarding Trump's remarks about the Mexican heritage of the judge overseeing lawsuits against Trump University. Ryan said the comments were a “textbook” example of racism.

Ryan's office fired back Wednesday night in a statement.

"On Thursday the speaker will tape an interview with ABC for its Sunday show and do an interview with Hugh Hewitt. He also held a press conference on Tuesday. In total, the speaker will have done eight interviews this week, including appearing on two Sunday shows," Ryan's press secretary AshLee Strong said. "It’s questionable whether the Minority Leader could get invited on even one."
