The point isn’t threatening a shutdown; the point is not endorsing the ceding of Congress’s budget authority to Trump (which is what voting to support the continuing resolution would do).
No, it’ll throw them for a loop. Fucking musk got social security records and thought every entry was getting payments, despite many being dead. The dumb fuck didn’t even check their status before crying fraud - which is a serious crime that must be investigated
The records contain everyone who ever got it, dead or alive
These people are imbeciles. These chuckle fucks are struggling to accomplish their goals with unlimited power, you think they could navigate a shut down government?
I think it might be easier for them to access closed buildings and servers. I think it makes it easier for them to shut down agencies they don’t like, such as the department of education. And I doubt the federal workers would get back pay this time as they have in the past.
The shutdown would screw a lot of people. The CR could be worse. And the Democrats, as usual, are left to be the only adults in the room. Yeah , the Republicans might eat more blame, questionably, but a lot of people would get hurt regardless.
It’s 2 months into a trump presidency. I don’t care how a shutdown reflects on the dnc. With all the dumb shit the gop does in the next 2 years this will be forgotten by next wednesday. The dnc’s polling is trash and their donors are fleeing, why even count on being able to legitimately win another election? God knows they haven’t changed a damn thing.
Ridiculous to use that as “politically weakening Democrats” excuse. Get zero, so that destroying government during shutdown, instead of at a slightly slower pace, somehow gets blamed on Democrats???
Not to mention, they’ve consistently threatened us with shutdowns up until now, so the democrats threatening one won’t work. Heck, they would revel in democrats using something from their playbook.
That’s a non-sequitor. Threatening a government shutdown only works when the other guys are in charge. Right now the GOP is in charge, so they have to worry about government shutdowns.
The GOP is actively dismantling the government. Why would they care about a government shutdown?
Seems stupid to try to threaten them with one.
They’re shutting down humanitarianism.
State control/violence and wider imperialism will continue to be fully funded.

Because for all their talk they need at least some parts of the government to work. That’s why they’re recalling employees all over.
A shutdown can allow them to dismantle the government faster.

Their small time donors are fleeing. Their corporate buddies are still lining their pockets with the big bucks.
That’s not a brag
Huh?

Of course it would work. Come on, now.
Because they want to spend that money on their friends’ companies. That’s why they care.
