The US federal government shutdown has entered its second day while the Republicans and the opposition Democrats remain at odds over the budget for the new fiscal year.
The government agencies have been partially closed since funding expired on Wednesday.
US President Donald Trump said on social media on Thursday that he and Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought would determine &quot;which of the many Democrat Agencies&quot; to cut.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters the same day that the number of federal workers that the administration wants to fire during the shutdown is &quot;likely going to be in the thousands.&quot;
House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries has responded that the Trump administration has been engaging in mass firings outside the context of a government shutdown since the inauguration in January.
