đŸ Shutdowns, Fake Wars & Fascist Games
1. Shutdown = Layoffs in Disguise
At 12:01 a.m. October 1, Trump shut the government down, furloughing 800,000 workers. Unlike past shutdowns, this one smells permanent â with the White House openly plotting mass layoffs under the âDepartment of Government Efficiency.â Thatâs not belt-tightening, thatâs throat-cutting.
2. Cartel âWarâ Declaration
Trump told Congress the U.S. is now in a ânon-international armed conflictâ with drug cartels. That legal trick unlocks war powers â bombings, indefinite detentions, kangaroo courts â all without oversight. Experts are already calling it unconstitutional and dangerous.
3. Blue State Payback
Trump froze $26 billion in projects in Democratic-led states: infrastructure, clean energy, transit. Itâs not âefficiency,â itâs revenge politics â punishing anyone who didnât kiss the ring.
đ Featured Resister: Federal Workers on the Frontlines
While Trump weaponizes a shutdown, federal workers â from park rangers to food safety inspectors â are organizing, speaking out, and leaning on mutual aid. They remind us that resistance isnât always rallies and headlines. Sometimes itâs survival and solidarity in the face of fascist sabotage.
đ Todayâs To-Do List
- Call your reps: Demand an end to the shutdown and protection for workers.
- Support mutual aid: Donate to furlough relief funds in your community.
- Boycott MAGA-aligned businesses: Donât bankroll the enemy.
- Show up local: Town halls, marches, and protests â the streets need bodies.

đ± Closing Rally from Resistance Kitty
Donât buy the spin. âEfficiencyâ is code for firing watchdogs. âCartel warâ is code for unchecked authoritarian power. And freezing blue-state funding? Thatâs Trump proving fascism isnât just theory â itâs practice.
But hereâs the claw-swipe of truth: the more chaos they sow, the more cracks we see in their armor. Stay loud, stay sharp, and never stop clawing back.
