“When you think about it, the phrase ‘earning a living’ is really quite vile.” — Jeremy Keith

CNBC's All-American Economic Survey, conducted 8-12 October:

53% of Americans blame Trump and the Republicans for the shutdown

37% blame Democrats

"We enter this crisis week with Trump out of the country and Mike Johnson having functionally dissolved the House. Republicans are completely AWOL. Unconcerned. Reckless. Irresponsible. Just un-American levels of sabotage, plunder, and betrayal."

~ Simon Rosenberg

"And that’s to say nothing of the Nov. 1 date that open enrollment begins for Affordable Care Act health plans. That’s when people will start to see just how much their premiums are set to skyrocket because insurers aren’t confident Democrats and Republicans will reach a deal to extend enhanced tax credits before they expire at the end of the year — a central point of conflict amid the partisan shutdown impasse."

"Popular programs that provide nutrition assistance, early childhood education and air service to rural communities are now among those about to run out of money.

Thousands of federal employees will also miss their first full paychecks this week, so services like TSA screenings and air traffic control operations could be further stunted if those workers stop showing up…."

"The government shutdown gets uglier at the end of this week.

With President Donald Trump traveling abroad and Congress still deeply divided over a path to fund federal agencies, a pileup of deadlines on and around Nov. 1 is set to put many U.S. households at risk of new hardship:"

Axios Hill Leaders

Axios Hill Leaders

October 07, 2025

• By Hans Nichols

Newsy edition tonight! 917 words, 3.5 minutes.

• 🤕 The real pain begins
• 👀 Scoop: Dems dig in
• 🥊 Shutdown messaging ground zero

🚨 Situational awareness: After a batch of 107 Trump nominee confirmations tonight, Senate Republicans have now surpassed the tally at this point in the Biden administration. Go deeper.

1 big thing: 🤕 The real pain begins

Lawmakers are talking tough. But for many federal workers, Friday is their last (and incomplete) payday for the indefinite future.

• Why it matters: Both parties on the Hill are eyeing key pressure points in the coming days to force the other side to cave.

They won’t have to look too hard.

• In the next four to five days, PresidentTrump has threatened another round of federal government layoffs.
• Friday, Oct. 10: Federal workers get their last paychecks for work in September. All work starting Oct. 1 is unpaid until the shutdown ends (more on that below).
• Monday, Oct. 13: The Senate was scheduled to kick off a recess week. Fundraisers, campaigning, in-state events and media, surgeries, and other important personal events will likely need to be rescheduled or canceled.
• Wednesday, Oct. 15: U.S. troops will miss paychecks.
• Over the next week or so, the Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) may run out of funding, leaving moms and children without needed food assistance. The White House says it has found funding to keep the program afloat longer, as Axios scooped today.
• Saturday, Oct. 18: No Kings protests are planned across the country. GOP leaders have been raising their concerns that Democrats will feel political pressure to hold out on funding the government until after the protests.
• Monday, Oct. 20: Senate staff will miss their first whole paycheck — even as senators continue to be paid.
• Friday, Oct. 31: House staff will miss paychecks, even as their bosses continue to be paid.

The big picture: Trump is turning up the temperature even more over back pay for federal workers.

• “It depends on who you’re talking about,” he said today when asked about the White House memo — scooped by Axios’ Marc Caputo — that suggested back pay was not guaranteed after a shutdown for furloughed workers.
• Trump signed the law in 2019 that guarantees back pay after shutdowns.
• Asked later about the law, Trump said, “I follow the law and what the law says is correct.”

The bottom line: Democrats erupted over Trump’s comments. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries promised they “will make sure that the law is followed.”

• Speaker Mike Johnson said he hopes federal workers get paid on principle, but demurred on whether he would oppose any administration attempt to deny back pay.
• “[T]here are some legal analysts who are saying that that may not be appropriate or necessary in terms of the law requiring that back pay be provided.”
• “If that is true, that should turn up the urgency and the necessity of the Democrats doing the right thing here,” he added.

To lightly paraphrase #CharlesBarkley: The #rich cash big #paychecks, the #wealthy write them.

Considering the wealthy haven't suffered since the #GreatDepression, it's obvious the system was rigged to always protect them.

🎵 History shows again and again, the wealthy will never be #poor again, #Capitalism 🎵 – apologies to #BlueOysterCult and #Godzilla

#BurnItAllDown

Compare #paychecks with your co-workers. It is the best way to get #equality.

In the #USA it is illegal for them to even ASK you not to talk about your #wages

@karoli They have to have something to fill the hours! #Ratings #Paychecks #
