Johns Hopkins University announced staff layoffs as a result of massive funding cuts to federal aid programs – where Watters’s sister works

Fox News host Jesse Watters again bemoaned the DOGE cuts impacting him personally after the anchor had promoted the cuts.

On Thursday evening’s episode of Jesse Watters Primetime, the host, once again, praised President Donald Trump, billionaire Elon Musk and the newly-formed Department of Government Efficiency for making massive cuts to federal programs to curtail what they believe is “waste, fraud and abuse.”

But also lamented that it would be “a whole family thing” to deal with the fallout over the weekend.
