House dems are PISSED at what Schumer just did. This is the case where outside voices are maximally helpful - when people on the inside of the party want him out. Let's build continued pressure. This will not happen overnight, it will happened when we keep the pressure consistently high
You know who else doesn't get paid during a shutdown? The military. The fucking military! You think they'd forget about a one, two, or three week shutdown when Trump tries to use them to enforce martial law to "cancel" an election or subdue protests?
No, they remember, they always remember. They would just pass a temporarily permanent funding exception to continue funding the police, military, concentration camps, and other select operations at Donald choosing. Keeping the government turned in at least gives dems a platform to fight back. I don't love it and it feels gross but also I kinda get it.
