TL;DR: Another US government shutdown is looming—and markets are treating it like déjà vu (this’ll be the 22nd time, after all). But buried in a newly leaked Trump-era memo is a plan to weaponize the shutdown, turning what’s usually a temporary budgeting headache into a permanent tool for sweeping policy changes.

Keep watching: this could be more than just another Wednesday drama.
