Summary

Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) abruptly canceled a CNN interview after facing intense backlash from constituents at a town hall over mass federal layoffs and spending freezes under Trump.

The cuts, pushed by White House adviser Elon Musk, have sparked public outrage.

On CNN’s The Lead, Rep. Cliff Bentz (R-OR) acknowledged similar criticism from voters and suggested congressional staff cuts could be considered.

        Trump is going to declare that 2a is DEI and they’ll all say “yes daddy” and sheepishly give up their guns.

        After seeing Jews defend a Nazi salute, anything is possible.
