Trump's administration and Republicans in general in office are attempting to use the government shutdown as a way to "purge" many departments. And they're being explicit about it: they're planing on purging any departments they see as "left leaning" (ie providing social services), purge "left leaning" employees, and plan on consulting with the architect(s) of Project 2025 to execute this plan https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2025/oct/02/government-shutdown-trump-democrats-latest-updates

It's good that the Democrats didn't cave on the budget. But that doesn't mean that Trump and company get to do this.
It could backfire, if people push back. They're overplaying their hand.
But if there's not enough pushback, then we're really in trouble, because this will effectively be a second major purge of America's institutions. The DOGE wave was already bad enough.

I've been watching on Bluesky and fedi both, and I will say that I think there's been much less attention and alarms raised on the fediverse about how bad things are going.
Y'all the last week has been INCREDIBLY BAD, especially the meeting on Tuesday. Maybe I should make a thread about it. We are so beyond red alert right now.

Ci sono quelle giornate lavorative distruttive (oramai troppo frequenti) in cui pensi che ricevere una bella bomba "termonucleare" su "i capo" non sarebbe poi così male.

cari amici della #GlobalSumudFlotilla Italia, ma navigate verso #Gaza e non torturate nessuno?
Ci credo che il governo #Meloni non vi pagherà il viaggio di ritorno: per un volo di Stato serve minimo un reato da #CortePenaleInternazionale

While I do believe children deserve suffrage & irrevocable human rights of their own from birth, I'm gonna need to read some stronger youth liberation theory supporting their inherent right to berries
