Not last night, but the night before
24 robbers came knocking at the door.
I ran out, they ran in
I asked them what they wanted
And this is what they said:
Spanish dancers, turn around
Spanish dancers, touch the ground
Spanish dancers, get out of town!

Axios Hill Leaders

October 07, 2025

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.
