The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022.
The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion.
Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.

Trump’s all-out assault on the VA is a complete betrayal of our Veterans.
Mark my word. This is Republicans' plan all along—
Gut the VA, then push to privatize the Department so they can fund tax cuts for billionaires.
And our heroes will pay the price. apnews.com/article/vete...

70% of Missouri’s Medicaid budget comes from the federal government. This will be cut and it will be devastating. This is also at the same time that Missouri GOP leaders are trying to eliminate the income tax which supports 65% of the state’s budget.
We are screwed.

🇺🇸 is not a business. It’s Billionaires like O’Leary & Musk & Trump vs. underpaid civil servants who make this country what it is.
“Efficiency” is the excuse. Greed is the reason. The trillions in tax cuts for the rich are all the evidence you need.

Per Heather Cox Richardson, the US Senate phone system is getting 1600 calls/minute compared to the average of 40 calls/minute. I was able to talk to a person in Wagner’s office and left messages with the others.
