07.10.2025The Day Trump Threatened No Back Pay Amid Shutdown
US media on October 7th primarily focused on President Trump's threat of withholding back pay for furloughed federal workers, escalating pressure to end the government shutdown. This development was prominent throughout the day, particularly from early afternoon into the evening, alongside reports of continuing congressional inaction and the shutdown's impact on air travel. Concurrently, Attorney General Pam Bondi's contentious Senate hearing, where she clashed with Democrats over the Justice Department's alleged politicization and her refusal to answer questions on issues like Jeffrey Epstein and border enforcement, garnered significant media attention. The two-year anniversary of the October 7th Hamas attack on Israel also remained a substantial, though secondary, focus, with various outlets covering commemorative events, ongoing peace talks, and the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
