US shutdown: White House voicemail changed to blame Democrats
The US is in the middle of a government shutdown, leaving many federal services without staff.
But callers to the White House comment line at the weekend were informed that Democrats were to blame.
The recorded message says calls cannot be answered because Democrats are holding government funding "hostage".
The recorded message was set up on the White House comment phone line, which accepts calls from members of the public.
