Part 4/13:
A looming government shutdown appears imminent, with debates intensifying over funding issues. The crux of the disagreement centers around the Democrats' refusal to support a budget that does not allocate $1 trillion to illegal aliens—a stance sharply opposed by President Trump and Republican lawmakers.
According to sources, the administration warns that a government shutdown could lead to large-scale layoffs of federal employees—potentially as much as 32-40% across various agencies. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has issued directives empowering agencies to consider reductions in force (RIF), including layoffs of non-essential personnel, to adapt to decreased funding.
