I've never been much of an accelerationist, but if this is how this mutherfucker plans in getting everything done, then I say throw a match on this shit and get it over with. The sooner this house burns to the ground, the sooner we get back to rebuilding.

Might as well, anything else is just fucking purgatory

I wasn't an accelerationist this time last year, but we play the hand we're dealt.

This will surely help the already high unemployment rate his admin is responsible for.

Dunce dumbass had the gall to complain about unemployment numbers and bad job market because it made him look bad. What the hell does he think is going to happen when these people get let go?

The White House asked federal agencies on Wednesday to prepare plans for mass firings during a possible government shutdown next week, marking a sharp departure from the temporary furloughs of workers typically seen during past shutdowns.

...

Roughly 300,000 federal civilian workers will have left their jobs by the end of 2025, Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor told Reuters in August.

About 154,000 of those employees accepted a buyout and are slated to drop off the U.S. government’s payroll on September 30, the last day of the federal government’s fiscal year. That date is also the deadline for Trump and Congress to reach an agreement on federal spending to avert a shutdown.

Every single year with this bullshit. Enough of it already.

That’s not how you negotiate. Work across the aisle if you need the votes.
