https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/01/09/upshot/trump-workforce-cuts-table.html

Eye-opening, stomach-turning table of the staff cuts to 500+ federal agencies, Nov 2024 - Nov 2025. Plus a search engine to find the cuts for a given agency. Some examples:

#NASA, down 6%
#NIH, down 18%
#HHS, down 18%
#NOAA, down 20%
#CDC, down 22%
#OSTP, down 26%
#NSF, down 29%
#NEA, down 34%
#IMLS, down 59%
#NEH, down 73%

Bravo to the National Education Association ( #NEA, @neatoday) for voting to drop the Anti-Defamation League ( #ADL) as a partner in developing school curricula.

From Judy Greenspan, the NEA delegate who introduced the motion: "The ADL…continually [tries] to equate criticism of #Israel with #antisemitism.”
