I read it already, thanks.
The article is more idea speculation. It has not been announced by anyone in the administration and I suspect it wont be.
My issue with the article is the old headline which states ITS COMING when in fact there is no such thing coming. At least not yet. Old articles that may have been accurate when written are totally inaccurate when reposted because too many people will not read the date, assuming its current news.
The idea that a RIF could occur is of course possible but I doubt trump wants to blamed for a shutdown which his enemies will say he did only to lay off employees. The optics are too bad at this time.
