The trump administration is using ICE to set traps for documented and undocumented people who go through the required formalities to regularise their status. They go to Court check-ins scared, ignoring if they will ever see their families again. NOT. NORMAL. It is a GROSS ethnic cleansing !
This seems important… 🚨 Trump is set to make a televised announcement from the Oval Office on September 2, 2025, at 2 PM ET.
Ms. von der Leyen joined other European leaders at the WH last month to back up Zelensky as he met with Trump. Those efforts to press for a lasting security guarantee and an immediate cease-fire have failed to yield a clear path forward for peace in Ukraine. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/w...
Hundreds of bills passed this year in Texas. SB 12 bans diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives in public school hiring and training. Under the bill, parents would have to opt their children into family planning and sexual education courses. bit.ly/4oWJws5
Trump not talking in a week is likeTrump not breaking a law in a week. Impossible if he’s capable.

We made the right person famous‼️
I can’t put into words how sick to my stomach this makes me. We are a country where a large majority can’t find value in anything but money, no matter how dirty it is. Taking blood money from Saudi Arabia is a helluva commentary on someone’s morality.
Meanwhile, the Law & Order president is defunding the police

1/6 This Labor Day, honor the United Auto Workers & Sean Fain. In one year, they turned decades of concessions into one of labor’s greatest victories. Their “stand up” strike not only crushed corporate resistance but reignited belief in working-class power. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue
Thank you Adam for your vigorous work on these issues. Go Commanders!!
From my grandfather, who battled union busters in the 1940s From my parents, school teachers who fought for fair wages and benefits From my daughter, who works with unions to create climate friendly jobs And me, representing union members injured at work Enjoy your Labor Day You've earned it

YES on PROP 50!
#pedoPres
Prop 50 is about defending democracy. Republicans already stole seats in Texas without voters having any say. California is doing it differently: we get a one-time shot to fight back, then it reverts to our independent redistricting commission.
Not today, Satan‼️ Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please. Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.
Absolutely! America is going to pay dearly for putting a treasonous pedo in The White House. At least there are some reps willing to keep the pressure on! #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
It’s not the immigrants. It’s the billionaires ruining our country. Stop buying into the divisionary tactics of the oligarchy. It’s time to take back our country and power of the people #LaborDay
Just so you know, everything that is being pushed out from the Whitehouse is just a ploy to distract us from the Epstein victims testifying on Capitol Hill on Wednesday. Thank you Rep Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Rep Thomas Massie (R-KY) for making this happen. The victims deserve justice! 💥🔥💥
#ProudBlue If you are in the Cincinnati area, you should check this event out to kick off Lindsey’s campaign. Ohio needs more progressive candidates. Ohio needs fighter, not AIPAC funded establishment representatives. We are DONE with that BS. #FerreiraForCongress
El Chapo’s son, Ovidio Guzman, changed his plea from not guilty to guilty shortly after 17 members of his family were escorted across the border and into CA, are receiving Federal protections. Ovidio’s attorney denies the family entry into USA was part of the deal 🙄🙄 m.youtube.com/watch?v=I9ZJ...
😳…is this what voting will be like…😳
Kräken's post inspired me to make a meme. Save & share because it should be seen broadly & made into bumper stickers, bridge signs & flyers. ICE is a fascist Gestapo-like secret police force with poorly trained goons that violate our rights & use maximum force to unconstitutionally abduct people.
When someone explains something to me in the wild, I freeze to remind myself to honor their journey in life. And I find a clip that gives me hope.

Enjoy Labor Day; While You Still Have A Job #ABlueView🧵1/3 I've been reposting Labor Day cartoons for nearly 20 years but this year there's a revealing change: a very high proportion of this year's editorial cartoons are about AI's potential to massively destroy American jobs.
Today’s press pool photo shows Trump leaving the White House this morning. I enhanced the image. And seriously, can an expert explain what the hell is happening to his forehead? Right above his nose and right brow.
All we have to do is care.
NBC: Kristi Noem confirms plan to expand ICE operations in major cities, including Chicago. Trump isn't cracking down on crime, he's conducting an ethnic cleansing by seizing control of state governments. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

To be clear: I'm neither a #Newsom champion nor detractor. But facts matter regarding his views and actions on #homelessness in California. There are no easy choices or perfect solutions to this extremely complex issue. Love him or hate him, at least do so based on facts. All links in thread.

What is the administration hiding? Is the bruise on the back of Trump's hand from an IV? What is he being treated for? The American people deserve to know whether the President is cognitively capable of doing his job. This isn't governing.
“Immigrants make up almost 20% of the U.S. workforce and that data shows 45% of workers in farming, fishing and forestry are immigrants…About 30% of all construction workers are immigrants and 24% of service workers are immigrants.” abcnews.go.com/Business/wir...

Raise the minimum wage. It’s been $7.25/hr since 2009. Some states have voluntarily raised the minimum wage. Most red states have not. Workers should not have to work several jobs just to survive. WA is at $16.66/hr, CA at $16.50 #LaborDay www.paycor.com/resource-cen...?
This #LaborDay, let’s honor the millions who live in the shadows yet keep the American machine running. They deserve our respect. This means refusing to remain silent in the face of unnecessarily violent or aggressive ICE tactics. 🔗 tinyurl.com/bddybhk7
Workers are reclaiming the term ‘Redneck.’ The word has roots in labor movements, where it was used as a term of honor by coal miners who wore red bandanas, and in a more self-conscious and even complimentary way by populist voters who adopted it as a badge of class pride.

The last time Donald Trump showed his face live in front of the press was Tuesday, August 26th, during a marathon three-hour cabinet meeting. Maybe all that staged roundtable praise from his sycophants was too much for him.

Today should be a day of rest and celebration. Instead, many will be making their voices heard to fight for the very meaning of Labor Day. They are pulling the fiber of progress and we can’t let them do that. No one is above anyone. We have no kings. Take our country back!! #LaborDay #Protest

Happy Labor Day! To those who’ve lost your job, don't know how you're going to buy food, pay the bills, and keep your home, I hope it gives you some comfort to know that while you're struggling, Trump has made millions from being back in office. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice
