It's not just about the literal employee contracts. Telling all USAID workers to cease operations and come home within 30 days is still a "cut" even if they are still employed. Not hiring seasonal workers for national parks is a cut. Removing info from the CDC website is a cut. Cancelling the meeting on flu vaccines is a cut. It's a very hamfisted deliberate disruption of all operations and services. Which, again, can hardly be called "targeted" by any metric.
