Trump has not yet disclosed the specific programs that face potential closure. The president's comments suggest a significant shift in tactics as the shutdown continues to unfold.
The announcement marks a critical moment in the negotiation process, raising questions about the long-term impact on various governmental initiatives and the communities they serve.
