Trump wields ax over Democrats as blame game rages
The Philippine Star
|October 04, 2025
Donald Trump signaled on Thursday that he plans to follow through on his threat of mass layoffs of US federal workers as he ratcheted pressure on Democrats to back moves to end the government shutdown.
-
The Republican president announced he would meet budget chief Russell Vought “to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent.”
Trump's announcement on his Truth Social website came with the government entering the second day of a stoppage that is expected to see 750,000 employees being sent home without pay across a wide range of agencies.
