Government Shutdown: White House Eyes Spending Cuts

The Trump administration is considering spending cuts amidst a federal government shutdown, now in its third day. The shutdown occurred after the Senate failed to pass a short-term funding agreement, with disagreements over Affordable Care Act subsidies and health spending cuts being central. The White House proposes workforce layoffs, sparking lawsuits from federal unions. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated President Trump is exploring responsible spending reductions, blaming Democrats for the "Democrat shutdown."
