The wealthy won’t be hurt. But middle class Trump voters who
aspire to be wealthy will be. As well the white people on SNAP who thought they would be immune from the harms. Or the farmer who relies on IRA funds who thought he would be spared. Josh Hawley’s office told him the EO freezing fund wasn’t supposed to impact farmers and he believed that LOL. What did he think? Cuts only for freeloaders, ah hem Black and brown people?

A whole lotta white people are about to FAFO.

There have already been layoffs in AZ due to the cancellation of HHS contracts.

We are WuHan over here. We're warning you. You can get ready or not. Your choice.

Cool. This is just the beginning. You haven't noticed 34,000 or more affected plus more if you count contractors.

Layoffs have begun in Arizona.

"Some Mesa Public Schools teachers won’t be back in the fall because of pending staffing cuts, Arizona’s largest public district announced last week.

Outgoing Superintendent Andi Fourlis said layoffs for the 2025-26 school year are necessary because of declining enrollment, rising operational costs and a reduction in federal and state funding."

Arizona is home to 34,000 federal employees
Arizona has 34,150 civilian federal employees, according to a 2024 report by the Congressional Research Service. That’s a group nearly double the capacity of the Footprint Center in downtown Phoenix.

The figure does not include the uniformed military personnel, the U.S. Postal Service or federal contractors...

Federal employees who live in Arizona work across a number of federal agencies, including 500 employees at the Bureau of Land Management. That agency manages nearly 17% of the land in Arizona, or 12.1 million acres....

The greatest number of Arizona federal employees, 16,450, live in Republican Rep. Eli Crane’s northeastern district. Another approximately 15,000 employees reside in Rep. Juan Ciscomani’s, R-Ariz., district in the southeastern part of the state, according to the Congressional Research Service.

Ciscomani is a member of the Delivering Outstanding Government Efficiency, or DOGE, Caucus in Congress.

Yes, the wealthy will be hurt. It might take a while, but it's going to affect all of us.

Missouri cattle rancher Skylar Holden signed a contract with the National Resources Conservation Service to receive approximately $240,000 in funding from the Inflation Reduction Act.

In a viral TikTok video, Skylar Holden, a first-generation farmer who voted for Trump, explained how he was scrambling to save his land after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) froze funding for key conservation programs.

I’m the PP. I should clarify, I meant the uber wealthy won’t get hurt. They always find a way to escape reality.

It will take time for the collapse to reach states like AZ.


It won’t, there are medical centers there that will be laying off people.

The VA cuts are going to be felt very quickly all over the country. They were already understaffed.

He was apparently a con man. Now he'll go to Guantanamo if Cuba doesn't let him in.

Aw, is a county that voted for Trump going to be in financial trouble due to Trump?

As non-working Ivanka Trump said about work: "Find Something New!"

I can’t believe the stupidity of small businesses and non fed people, they didn’t bother to think that if their clients lose jobs then they lose business, but here we are. I have a couple of relatives in Baltimore who voted for Trump and their business sales are in the dump. I have zero sympathy.

Btw, I am not a Fed but I have 2 brain cells to figure out that pretty much everything in DC is tied to the Federal government.


You seem to be suggesting that people in America should vote for what's best for the people in the DC metro area? Why would someone in Illinois vote so that DC area workers are employed by the government?

What a dumba$$, thinking that Feds only exist in DC.


Exactly. Dumb AF. The majority work outside DC and universities that get fed funding for research have to cut. Many of these are in MAGA land and confederate country. WSJ had a story.


Goodbye, U Alabama!


Not just Alabama will be impacted. They are the only state with a university getting NIH funding.

They don't care. They make $100 million yearly off their football program

80% of the federal workforce is outside of DC.


But they don't make up 80% of the work force anywhere else.

Federal employees are in every state aren't they?
