11.10.2025 ⇢ The Day Federal Worker Firings Began in Earnest
⌨
On October 11th, US media primarily focused on the government shutdown, with the Trump administration commencing mass layoffs of over 4,000 federal workers to pressure Democrats, a development that continued throughout the day. This included critical CDC departments facing layoffs, although some firings were later reversed due to coding errors. Concurrently, President Trump imposed new 100% tariffs on Chinese imports in retaliation for rare earth export restrictions, a story that gained prominence in the morning. By early afternoon, the narrative expanded to include Trump's directive for the Pentagon to use available funds to pay troops despite the shutdown. Separately, the death of legendary actress Diane Keaton at 79 emerged as a significant story in the evening, gaining widespread coverage across various outlets.
