Trump's AI videos during shutdown spark backlash; Vought halts $2B transit funds, raising legal questions.
On October 3, 2025, President Donald Trump posted AI-generated videos on Truth Social during the ongoing government shutdown, including one depicting OMB Director Russ Vought as the Grim Reaper threatening federal layoffs and another showing House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries in a stereotypical Mexican outfit, which Jeffries called racist.
The White House defended the posts as political satire, while Republicans framed them as critiques of Democratic inaction.
Vought, a Project 2025 architect, paused over $2 billion in transit funding for Democratic-led cities, citing the shutdown.
Legal experts note only Congress can make permanent funding cuts, and the administration has not clarified the legality of its actions or future workforce plans.
