Trump’s Plan to Slash Federal Workforce by 50% Sparks Outrage
A leaked White House document reveals plans for significant staff reductions across 22 federal agencies, ranging from 8% to 50%, as part of a broader effort to shrink the federal bureaucracy. The proposed cuts, which include substantial reductions at agencies like HUD and the IRS, are sparking widespread outrage and concerns about the impact on public services. While the White House claims the document is a preliminary draft, the potential consequences for federal employees and the American public are already being felt, with reports of increased wait times and website issues at agencies like the Social Security Administration. These cuts are linked to the Heritage Foundation’s “Project 2025” agenda, adding to the controversy surrounding the administration’s actions.
