Biggest Federal Employee Unions Says Shutdown is Preferable to Elon/Trump CR
Federal workers obviously don’t like government shutdowns. Most of them are furloughed....

Oh now democrats are definitely gonna cave.

It seemed to me that pausing as much of a fascist takeover as we can would be a good thing. Why continue the takeover if the services shutdown effects are going to be cut permanently?
-
Hey now if it happens Trump can say he slashed the budget!
-
Would a shutdown slow down or speed up the fascist takeover?
-
Fascists still need an administration.
At the very least to coordinate and pay the people with guns. But to pay the people with guns you need people collecting taxes. So you need tax administration. And in order to have taxes to collect, you need a functioning economy, so you need infrastructure like roads. So now you need an office where roads are planned built and maintained. And you want electricity, but grid is complicated, so you need an office for that. Also your underlings still need to eat, so you need to organize agriculture and transportation of food...
It all boils down to needing a reasonably staffed administration. So yes, a full shutdown will slow down the takeover.

My worry is musk and his merry band of malcontents are probably excited about the prospect of a
showdownshutdown because then there won't be anyone around to interfere or watch what they're doing. -
Hold on, hold on. Before we rush to judge, let’s hear what Debbie Wasserman Schultz has to say.
-
We should definitely also ask Liz Cheney and at least a half-dozen former Republican strategists. You'll find them on Fox News with Elon's dick in their mouths.
-
It must be difficult to spew bullshit with a mouthful of dick, even if alleged dick is 🫛 pea-wee.

Yup. Hard agree. A government shutdown should actually make it meaningfully more difficult for them to use the government to tear itself apart.
