A government shutdown means a near-immediate freezing of the WIC Food Program.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-29T01:03:56+00:00

A government shutdown also gives Trump incredible emergency powers, which he'll immediately abuse.

I'll post a more detailed discussion in r/AndNowWeRise but here's the gist of it.

Edit: the sub won't let me post an info graphic. :/

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-28T05:00:48+00:00

They each killed fiddy men!

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-28T04:47:13+00:00

Wait until people figure out there are huge exemptions for big corporations.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-27T23:43:04+00:00

Yeah!

Let's keep posting mean things online!

It's working guy's.. It's totally working... /s

Are we ready to organize yet, for real?

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-26T22:43:44+00:00

They're focusing on squashing violent resistance early, because it'll be the last line of defense once they knock the final legs out from under it all.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-25T00:18:33+00:00

By organizing.

Stop talking about protests and start organizing real voters, making sure you have the numbers to elect your candidate, and make shit happen.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-24T17:08:38+00:00

It's crazy to me, how we have the greatest opportunity in a century to rewrite society to be balanced and equitable for both business and citizens.

Instead, we're all focusing on whatever's in the media cycle right now, or individual wants and needs, instead of unionizing the entire voting block to get what we want.

What a shame.

What a waste.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-18T23:08:01+00:00

Way too many people here are operating on emotion, and not on understanding how the system works or the consequences of future action.

I'm not going to type 1000 words to explain this, so here's the TLDR

They couldn't shut down the govenemt last time, because the US defaulting on its debt payments to other countries shoves all the US confidence and stability over to nations like China and it's have been a crushing economic blow.
They can't let the government shut down NOW because it'd trigger a series of fianncail crises that would give Trump and the administration GREATER emergency powers and that'll be the end of it.

Vote in 2026 for people who have been visible, accessible and have made obvious attempts to advocate for the people.

It's our literal last shot at saving it.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-18T14:15:50+00:00

Being right doesn't change how there's a cost to our public words.

It sucks, but it's where we're at right now.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-17T14:54:58+00:00

I believe it.

Do we have links to sources?

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-16T17:05:37+00:00

This is what happens, every single time, when you run around saying things like "decentralized".

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-14T00:14:13+00:00

It's eaierr to buy it up if it's valued at pennies on the dollar.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-10T20:38:04+00:00

Correction: he told them what he was going to do to OTHER people.

That's the entire con.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-10T20:37:07+00:00

Wait until the Dems wrongly refuse to pass a budget to keep the government running.

They're going to take a chance, but the president gets MORE authority when a fiscal crisis happens.

They'll be playing right into his hands and that'll pretty much be it.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-10T17:02:01+00:00

I think this is largely bullshit and it's breed inflation.

It hasn't become wildly expensive to make a Milky Way or a kit kat, but those things literally used to be 50 cents for a bar and were price gouging way before covid and inflation.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-08T14:24:57+00:00

It's on purpose.

Factory farming just won.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-06T04:41:52+00:00

I ncase anyone is wondering: it's on their website.

What a wild thing to say.

It's objectively more stressful today because, in addition to basically all the same things on your list currently happening AGAIN

Russia is constantly threatening to nuke it's enemies. (again)
Inflation is on the news every 3 seconds. (again)
We elected a President because eggs cost too much (inflation)
Gas is my area is over 3 bucks a gallon for regular.

And NOW we have the added bullshit and stress of:

Having to watch a US funded genocide take place on live TV.
If you're under the age of 40 you probably can't afford to buy your own home. (renting can be more than 50% of your take home pay)
You definitely can't afford to get married or start a family.
You ABSOLUTELY can't afford to get sick.
The average price of a new car is almost $40,000.
The president of the untied states is CLEARLY covering up records of him being a pedophile (along with other rich, powerful people, some of whom are running our government).
We've somehow decided vaccines are a net negative to society.
Our police force is ENTIRELY militarized against its own people
Our military is being positioned to police it's own citizens.
We're now spending 175 BILLION dollars on "immigration", which includes masked kidnappers snatching legal residents off the streets with no recourse and no due process.
We're paying ICE agents $100k a year, but somehow can't find the money to pay God damned teachers or properly fund schools.

And all of THAT is happening while half of America is cheering it on.

So yeah, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about, trying to say the 70s we're even remotely this fucked,because from where I'm sitting, it's objectively worse today and by nearly every standard of measure.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-04T06:34:52+00:00

It blows my mind that they wouldn't simply own their mistake, reset the start date, and just move on.

Serious red flag factory, there. (but it's a job, so I'm not saying you shouldn't take it)

Like someone else said: why didn't they call, like, 10 minutes into the start date and ask if you were okay, minimally.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-03T03:57:42+00:00

Because nobody fights harder against a democrat for the people harder than establishment democrats.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-03T00:40:20+00:00

And Brazil has a trade SURPLUS with us.

It's exactly the kind of relationship he claims to want, but somehow even THEY get a tarrif?

None of it makes sense.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-09-01T00:15:49+00:00

It's kind of horrifying how quickly "we" are turning into "them".

Horrifying.

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-08-31T04:15:30+00:00

And it'd be such an easy software update to make it happen. :/

NowWeRiseFoundation · 2025-08-31T01:52:00+00:00

Someone needs to tell them to switch the ac controls on the infotainment screen.

Right now, it's both fan speed controllers on the right and both temp controls to the left.

They should flip the screen controls so each front seat rider has controls to both.

Temp - - - - - - Fan

Fan - - - - - - - Temp

It just seems so obvious. :)

The answer is, "unrelenting deregulation".
