AI Summary
I don't have sufficient detail in the excerpt to accurately summarize the story. The headline indicates allies and Congress will lose access to information about US military plans, but the excerpt provided doesn't specify what mechanism, policy, or decision is causing this change, when it takes effect, or which Trump administration officials are involved. To write an accurate summary, I'd need the article body to clarify: What specific briefing, reporting requirement, or transparency mechanism is being eliminated or restricted? Is this a new policy decision, or related to an existing change? What is the stated justification? Please provide the full article text or a more complete excerpt so I can deliver the sharp, specific summary you need.
