The Chicago Labor Day march is getting started. #WorkersDeserve
This Labour Day holiday has been brought to you by the blood, sweat, and tears of workers.

My reflections of Labour Day. This is a time for working class resistance in the face of the oligarchs. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-such-th...
I believe that 99% of what RFK Jr. does is motivated by: 1. Protecting his ego and vanity. He must convince people vaccines are bad b/c he can’t be wrong. Endless photos of himself exercising b/c vanity. 2. Creating conditions for his law firm to increase profits from suing various companies.

Illegal sports betting: violence, mob threats, zero taxes. Legal sports betting: contracts, oversight, billions in revenue. A Seton Hall prof just dropped an interesting take on why the pearl-clutchers have it all wrong. bit.ly/4lJJLUE
This is now two consecutive popes who have loudly stood against fascism and general malfeasance by the far-right -- both elected, in part, by conservative cardinals within the Catholic Church. It's almost as though God is trying to communicate something here.
Must watch, this is truth!!🍁
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein wasn’t just a story — it was a prophecy about hubris, recklessness, and the chaos created by people who refuse accountability.
We are pumped to be launching @meidascanada.ca today. Our first Meidas Canada townhalls take place this weekend. Charlottetown is sold out but there are still a few tickets available for the official tour launch in North Rustico PEI. The revolution starts now. @meidastouch.com
Yeah robots are definitely not taking over the world. Not the red one, at least. 🤣
What I did this weekend: Spent hours emailing the foreign affairs offices of all major nations with one simple request - to send me their press releases, data and statistics directly with ability to follow up. First tens of emails came back approving the request. Now we will have actual information
CNN confirms that the pilots landed the plane using paper maps. www.cnn.com/2025/09/01/w...
Friends, I urge you to join a Workers Over Billionaires protest this Labor Day. Let’s honor the roots of this holiday by standing together to protest the exploitation and oppression of our tinpot dictator. bit.ly/4lMgKaR
I’ll be showing the same respect and compassion for MAGA lunatic seditionist Rudy Giuliani that fascist republicans showed Paul Pelosi when he was nearly assassinated, none.
He’s not traveling to NJ like they had announced. Not even to Florida. Sure does seem like someone is staying awfully close to Walter Reed, doesn’t it?
Poilievre has to get turfed at his leadership review. We can’t ignore him & his threat to Canada. I know he is annoying, exhausting, but his toxic, extremist politics get normalized the longer he is opposition leader. If the polling is dismal, if Cons see how hated he is, he will get dumped #NeverPP
Russia tried to assassinate the head of the European Commission by jamming the GPS on her plane.
A sea turtle surfacing by a MASSIVE school of rays near Clearwater, Florida a couple days ago. Another post into the BluSky void. Maybe 2 or 3 people will see this one and my time won't have been wasted. I'll keep trying a little longer. #nature #animals #amazing #wildlife #awesome #ocean
9 Former CDC Directors who were all qualified for their posts are warning that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr is a danger to public health. I’d say he’s actively destroying public health and committing murder on a daily basis with his destructive monstrous agenda.
"We must continue to take a clear stand against hegemonism and power politics, and practise true multilateralism," Xi said, in a thinly veiled swipe at the United States and President Donald Trump's tariff policies. www.reuters.com/world/china/...
Today we celebrate the strength and resilience of working people everywhere. Nearly 300,000 federal employees have lost their jobs this year not because of necessity, but because of a political agenda. And while people’s lives were destroyed in the name of “saving money,”
Israel pushed tanks deeper into Gaza City and detonated explosives-laden vehicles in one suburb as airstrikes killed at least 19 people on Monday, Palestinian officials and witnesses said. www.cbc.ca/news/world/g...

As we begin a new month, my law firm is litigation 51 voting and election cases in 25 states. 6 in Arizona 6 in Georgia 4 in Florida 4 in North Carolina 8 involve redistricting
The next trick for Republicans will be to shut down the government to change the narrative away from Epstein and the 🍊🤡👑's health. That should surely back fire on their short sightedness about the resolve of Americans to have epic protest across America. apnews.com/article/cong...
Any folks from the Netherlands here who could provide some more guidance on this? What’s the public opinion about this? Kan iemand hier meer context over geven?
While looking like death on a cracker.
Excellent display of truthful knowledge.
Here in the US, “two weeks” actually means never.
Here on earth two, the jobs, jobs, jobs president means he's losing jobs like no other president has lost jobs before. It's not even close to being over. This is just the beginning of an epic job loss time. apnews.com/article/labo...
Dave Matthews band - Trump and everybody in his White House can kiss my ass!
An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.

Story time... youtu.be/FB981QXWXUM
Agreed
Asshole?
My thoughts exactly.
The United States is slipping from its place as a world leader. You can thank Trump for that.
So very foolish.
👀💥 In Moscow Balashisha, something is actively burning in an industrial zone with sounds characteristic of detonations.
His wallet is tighter than the distance between 2 atoms, but only his money, all other times it's OP (other peoples) money.
Trump limits National Guard assignments to 29 days at a time to keep the called up service members from getting healthcare and housing benefits while on duty. And the NG troops are catching on. Stereotypical Trump. Don't give those losers and suckers an extra dime. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...
Same sh*t different day, he knows nothing else. Sad.
From your mouth to God's ears.
No, we're just about to hit that, but in the meantime, let's get working on that redistricting project the same as California. But don't let us interrupt your lunch.
Amazing
Refuses to talk to the press is very SUS‼️ Anyway #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp
You're right.
We can not longer tolerate this ignorant shit. The only ones to save us from this shit is us www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6GgEH6h/
It's free with cable.
I'd have no doubt he'd take us all out with him... nuke us.
As Trump sees his end nearing it’s as if he gets glee out of the thought of killing the rest of us like he did with the pandemic. apple.news/ABD4tXbj6Siq...
We are reading it and crying hysterically!
AGAIN... MAGA cult member causing problems.
Nova Scotia officials ask people not to use drones around crew fighting wildfires #NovaScotia globalnews.ca/news/1135789...
Some people just have no sense.
The era of human workers is over, and a new dawn of A1 has started. Better get started learning a programming language...
Only too well... then other wrote books about Biden. Crickets when it comes to the 🍊🤡👑.
He's a great guy somebody said at the porn garden center, and what a hero nobody said everywhere else.
We'll come back down if and when you get your house in order. It's easy. Stop voting for morons and idiots.... and maybe try a woman for a change. www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...
Wouldn't that be something.
Russia is having gasoline shortages all over the place as Ukraine has been striking Russian energy targets. Oil refineries, gas facilities, oil pipelines, etc. This could become a bigger deal than a lot of people realize. youtube.com/watch?v=N26m...
At Union Station, veterans play a speech from General Mark Milley warning soldiers of the threat that President Trump poses.
'What a guy' someone said at the porn garden store and a hero to nobody everywhere else.
SHARPTON: “I don’t endorse candidates, but I do take attendance.” 👀 Rev Al noted Cuomo & Adams were absent from the “March on Wall St” to protest Trump’s assault on DEI and attempts to control Democratic-led cities led by Black mayors… But @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was there.

#Canada has an honest-to-goodness treasure hunt on its hands. Organized by the newspaper The Northern Miner, the Great Canadian Treasure Hunt is a cross-country contest pitting Canadians’ deductive skills against the holy grail of geographical guessing games /1 🧵 www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...
For now... and a couple more trips to MickeyD's may speed things up.
VIA Rail Canada. Having a cross country train full of humans on a trip ,sit on a remote siding for 10 hours waiting for a CN Freight train which has the right of way? is the perfect parable of peak capitalism . Like being on hold for an hour with your bank only to be connected to an AI robot.
Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.
This seems exceptionally unhinged, even for Trump.
He could be talking about his death.
Wealthy Americans are helping keep the economy in good stead as they continue to buy first-class plane tickets and high-end sneakers, while more Americans are clipping coupons and cutting back on nonessentials. The economy is changing to reflect the will of the wealthy.
#Canada has pledged to plant 2 billion trees. Here’s how close we are Canada’s 2 Billion Trees program has reached the milestone of 228M trees planted, with agreements already in place to plant a total of nearly one billion within the coming years. /1 🧵 www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-...
He needs to have a few more Big Macs, fries, and diet cokes that may push him to the edge.
We have people on anti depressants in Canada. We have mentally ill people. People play video games in Canada. We have single parent homes here. What other excuses do you give people with access to assault type weapons with multiple loads of ammunition in each magazine? ITS THE GUNS
You're right, despicable!
