Tapper pushing back on Johnson: That's not really quite accurate. Vought is taking this opportunity to fire workers because they want to reduce the size of the federal workforce. None of these people are being paid anyway. It's not as though these these furloughed workers are sapping up budget.... show more

Reporter: The president has described this as an unprecedented opportunity to lay off additional workers. He's posted a video likening Russ Vought to the grim reaper. Which is it? Is this an opportunity to fire more workers or an unfortunate consequence? Leavitt: He likes to have a little fun and both can be true at the same time. We don't like laying people off. Nobody takes joy and if you think that, that's very sad you view the white house and our staff as wanting to put people out of work. Nobody wants to do that but sometimes in government, you have to make the tough decisions.

Mike Johnson on Russ Vought unilaterally firing federal workers: "If you can downsize the scope of government and some of these inefficient program, that is a great benefit to American taxpayers."

🚨 UPDATE: FEDERAL LABOR UNIONS are the ones who sued to BLOCK the Trump admin from offering federal workers buyouts, per Fox Union bosses are TERRIFIED that they're going to lose out on union dues as the federal workforce shrinks. That's what this is about. These unions just BARRED the 60,000+ federal workers who had already accepted the buyout from being allowed to make that decision. This is IN NO WAY favorable to federal workers. Why aren't they being allowed to make decisions for themselves??! Nobody is forcing them to take a buyout!

Garcia: They are, on one hand, putting names of survivors in these documents that are not redacted. And in these same documents, they're taking extra time and being extra careful to redact the names of the coconspirators

AOC: We rely on hundreds of thousands of home care workers across the country. This labor force is going to expand a lot as more of our parents reach older age, and these folks need to be paid a fair wage. These are some of the most exploited workers in the country. Oftentimes, their shifts are extremely long, and they have to work in very tough conditions. We need home healthcare workers to be paid a fair wage so that people can age with dignity and receive care at home with dignity

BREAKING: Randy Erwin, National President of NFFE, America's first federal employee union, says he is WORRIED that many fired/furloughed employees just won't return after the Schumer Shutdown ends. Well, that's the point of all this as far as I'm concerned. Schumer wanted to play, so Russ Vought has unleashed. OMB has the opportunity to root out a MASSIVE amount of corruption from the federal government. I want to see meltdowns like this on an HOURLY BASIS Russ Vought. You have a lot to do.

Cocchiarella: Trump to me is kind of this dementia addled, nursing home patient in the WH right now. He's leaning on Vought and Stephen Miller because he doesn't want to get the job done. What Trump wants to do is take this as an opportunity, in my opinion, to go out and golf to, I guess, maybe remodel some more parts of the WH. He just doesn't seem interested in negotiating. He's taking pleasure in what Russ Vought said would be the traumatizing of federal workers. That was their goal coming into this administration. And so it seems like that's all they want to do. And I don't know how that gets any Democrat who actually cares about people who are going to see their premiums double, triple come to the table. And why would you? It's an administration that doesn't want to engage

Trump Using Shutdown in a Way ‘No Other President Ever Has’ Before Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell joined NEWSMAX to discuss the ongoing government shutdown, saying, “We’re really at a standstill here,” and continuing that “Republicans have said repeatedly they will not negotiate until Democrats vote to reopen the government.” Mitchell added that the director of the Office of Management and Budget, Russ Vought, has taken this “as an opportunity to cut waste, fraud, and abuse from the federal government.” Democrats, on the other hand, are insistent that they will not pass the CR until Affordable Care Act subsidies are added.

Attorney that has worked on cases where H-1B visa holders have replaced American workers: “Thousands and thousands of American workers, and it’s not coming off of 5 years off the unemployment line. These are workers that have been working for decades in these companies who have done a great job… and they’re being told by the hundreds… ‘All of you are being fired. You’re all being replaced by these new workers.’” “In the end, the workers are paid a lot less, and the bonuses at the end of the year for those CEOs go up dramatically.” “The winner in this isn’t the foreign worker. The winner is not the American worker. It’s the CEO and executive who are making millions of dollars off of this cheap labor.”

Just days ago an American went to “The parking lot of the Department of Labor and Economic opportunity in Lansing, Michigan” This is a government office during working hours. There are essentially no cars in the entire lot. No workers even though they’re all still being paid “Take a look — Most of these workers, and 20,000 of them in the state of Michigan, they went home. They've been working from home ever since. — When you call the office, you'll get a voicemail. It'll direct you somewhere. Why are they not at work? And if they need to keep working at home, do we really need the buildings that they were in? That's a big question many people are asking. I want to know what you think about this in the comments below. When it comes to working at home. And as you can see here in Lansing, at least in this state parking lot, there's not many cars. Let me know what you're thinking about this.”

HOLY SHlT! Russ Vought just SMASHED Democrats, says they are TAKING HOSTAGES trying to get $1.5T in additional spending attached to a CLEAN SPENDING BILL! "This is HOSTAGE TAKING." "It is NOT something that we are going to accept and we hope that the Democrats come back from the brink, fund this government, and allow us to move forward." I sincerely hope the government shuts down. OMB and Russ Vought are primed and ready to FIRE as many bureaucrats as possible!!!

Johnson: Vought runs the OMB, and he has to look at the federal government and recognize that the funding streams have been turned off, and determine, what are essential programs, policies, and personnel. That's not a job that he relishes

🚨 WOW! Speaker Johnson is GOING OFF "We're DONE WITH IT." "They want to use people as pawns. People are not pawns!" "We GAVE them a chance to fund Homeland Security. You know how many House Democrats voted yes? FOUR OF THEM." "These are workers who are sacrificially serving the country, many of them without pay, to make sure that you and your families are safe." "This is not a political blame game. This is one party doing the job and getting the government funded, and another that's using people as pawns. We're not going to do that."
