Some good climate news on this Labor Day as US solar companies continue to power up — including in TX with partisan support. penncapital-star.com/energy-envir...
Happy Labor Day! Today, we celebrate the millions of workers who contribute to our economy and make our country strong. House Democrats will always fight to protect workers’ rights and benefits.
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
They loaded up those planes with children - some as young as 10. I don’t believe they had a safe place to go in Guatemala. And the government did not care. This admin is the least compassionate of any in my lifetime.
Trump is trying to repeal a roadless rule that prevents loggers from denuding National Parks—something they just announced and which public only has a few weeks to speak against insideclimatenews.org/news/3008202...
And, remember, Musk believes his mission is to populate the world. Disgusting.
OMG - from the great 'Raw Egg' scientists, right? This is INSANE
This is, of course, false. The United States exported $83 billion in goods and services to India last year alone.
Trump despises our men & women in uniform. He has no respect for anyone who commits themself to public service. How dare he disrespect those who have stepped forward to serve-away from families & work. THEY ARE NOT POLICE; THEY ARE NOT GARBAGE COLLECTORS. Are supposed to HELP people.
Unions built the middle class and fought to establish the minimum wage. Today, we celebrate their work, their patriotism, and our country. I am proud to stand with and fight alongside Hudson Valley workers, today and everyday.
The number of children expected to die from policies that have already been enacted is unimaginable in isolation, even before factoring in the other concurrent and compounding threats from this new epidemiological landscape.
Lying liar
WT? This regime poses an imminent danger to the American public. RFK Jr must be removed from office. Call Sen Cassidy; call your Reps & Senators. Demand RFK Jr be removed.
It is insane to target housing first. This regime wants to imprison homeless people instead of helping them get housing & help. They want the homeless to 'disappear' from their view like the cold-blooded elite that they are. Take action everyone; this is beyond cruelty.
He is trashing our economy with his random tariff lunacy. Congress HAS THE POWER to stop this. Contact your GOP Rep & Senator every day & demand they DO THEIR JOB!
Meanwhile the MN US GOP Congressional Reps are ducking the State Fair? Has anyone seen them there?
There was a point when calling Trump "the Manchurian Candidate" stank of Orientalism. Now it's undeniable that no human being has done more to advance China's interests.
The Trump regime has trashed our agricultural sector. All for the rantings of a lunatic & enabled by the feckless GOP Congress. They even betray their supporters. WT? Our nation is in serious trouble.
Patriot 💥🇺🇸
Republicans and Sec. of VA Doug Collins, doing everything they can to ratfuck U.S. Veterans. If you’re a veteran sitting on the sidelines, saying nothing, while this happens, you need to rethink your position.
I made a spreadsheet of all the federal cases filed as part of Trump's DC crackdown. It's not going great
Some key insights from @gregsargent.bsky.social This reminds me of the VP debate, last year, when Walz seemed astonished he had to defend the role of expertise in policy making. This can be a nuanced issue, but now the stakes are crystal clear. Time for Dems to go on the offense
Trump's insatiable desire for adulation brings shame upon our nation & wields the power of US for his personal lunacy. Trump has falsely claimed credit for ending this conflict - Modi is not going to lie, so Trump is trying to punish him like a petulant child. Congress must stop this! Feckless GOP!
OMG - what happened to 'the party of small government'? It was all a farce; it was always a farce. They just want the party of THEIR government to have control of every aspect of your life. FREEDOM is what Americans value most. Republicans are taking away our freedom at every turn.
This lawless regime AGAIN plans to violate a court order. 'A federal judge temporarily blocked the removals of unaccompanied Guatemalan minors in US custody early Sunday, though plans appeared to still be underway..Guatemalan children were transported out of their shelter after the judge’s ruling.'
The National Guard deployment is a complete fraud.
You can ignore climate science at your own peril, but you can't really make it disappear ...
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
No surprise. It's the Trump border wall and he has never done a day of physical exertion. He has no idea how to climb. What a farce. And all with our hard earned $s. We found the FRAUD - we found the WASTE - we found the ABUSE.
Every one of us needs to call our Reps and Senators. RFK Jr must go. Call Sen Cassidy's office - demand emergency oversize & that he demand RFK Jr is fired. We are all in danger.
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
Absolutely inexcusable & now they are trying to make up a cover story as they know there is not one person in this country that will think it is ok to take people away from an active fire. Just because they weren't in front of flames doesn't mean they weren't critical. They are so out of control.
I stand with the general. Giving that traitor any honors is a f-ing disgrace. As a Veteran, if I were on that guard post and the same scenario developed, with her jeopardizing the safety of the US House of Representatives, I would've dropped her a fly. #Traitor! www.rawstory.com/ashli-babbit...
Our nation is in serious jeopardy. We must act like it in opposition every day.
“Fire RFK Jr. Now.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
BOOM. The federal appeals court rules Trump's tariffs illegal, because they are. There's no national emergency, and so the power to tariff a country rests with Congress. Trump admin has lost at every stage of the process, but stay tuned for the Supremes to chime in.
Trump’s Tariffs Are Basically All Illegal, Federal Appeals Court Rules www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Glad to see this & scre the MAGA GOP climate change deniers. #Florida

FIRE RFK Jr! Demand accountability.
EXACTLY - Guns kill praying children. We must take action to STOP this. Don't give me the crap line that all we can do is pray. The Catholic bishops issued a letter calling for prayers for politicians to FIND THE COURAGE TO DO SOMETHING. They know, prayers must be followed by action.
Good riddance. She couldn't even stand up for our service members when they needed her to stop the Hegseth nomination and betrayed our nation with the Gabbard nomination. Sold her soul for nothing.
RFK must go. Please contact your congresspeople about this. Ask them why RFK was allowed to unilaterally fire a senate appointee because she contacted senators – the appropriate oversight body – after the HHS secretary demanded that she break the law & betray Americans’ public health.
"Dangerous, Irrational, Illogical: RFK Jr. Has Put So Many Lives at Risk" The decision by Trump's extremist health secretary to restrict COVID vaccines & oust the CDC chief could be a death sentence for vulnerable Americans, writes John Harwood for Zeteo.
They're eating the checks, they're eating the balances. The executive officially has taken the power of the purse from Congress, and the GOP has nothing to say about it except how lovely Dear Leader is looking today. Our government has been broken by Republicans. apnews.com/live/donald-...
As Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress make the single largest cuts to food assistance our nation has ever seen, I'm more grateful than ever for the organizations and volunteers on the ground who are continuing to work tirelessly to ensure our neighbors have enough to eat.
Such disrespect for our National Guard members. They have families & jobs & serve their home states. Are not Trump's private Army to be used for power games. Having them pick up trash & rake parks because they fired park workers is insulting & spends our tax $ without a care. STOP THIS!
None of us want our neighbors to go hungry. Grateful to the incredible organizations that help ensure Minnesota families get enough to eat, but they can’t do it alone. Cutting food assistance has real consequences.
Raising kids is already way too expensive -- but Trump's tariffs are making everything from kids' clothes to toys cost even more. I'm fighting to stop this Trump Tax on families and protect small businesses in our community like Little Roos Children’s Boutique.

Happy National Dog Day from my babies Oso and Lola 😍🐾
Services at stake. Barriers to care. Manufactured chaos. This is what Trump’s budget bill is doing to our health care clinics. Grateful to @ppfa.org for fighting harder than ever to keep providing accessible, affordable care to their patients.
So, Trump regime is diving US into loser in renewable energy. They are tanking our economy and enabling other nations to lead. All for love of big fossil fuel $s.
This is INSANITY. RFK Jr must be fired or his resignation demanded. GET LOUD everyone; the health of our nation is in peril.
Health leaders, medical groups: CDC leader exodus puts nation's health at risk The head of the Senate's HELP committee and two senior members said a hearing on the developments is needed as soon as possible. www.cidrap.umn.edu/a...
Shingles vaccine linked to lower heart attack risk The absolute rate difference ranged from 1.2 to 2.2 fewer events per 1,000 person-years among all vaccinated adults. www.cidrap.umn.edu/m...
Cassidy is fully responsible for the lunacy of RFK Jr destroying public health agencies/policy and endangering all Americans. He needs to call an emergency oversight hearing and demand RFK Jr resign or be fired. GET LOUD everyone! FIRE RFK Jr.
Voters of Tomorrow statement on shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota
They're chipping away at who can get COVID vaccinations at a time when COVID infections are rising. These sociopaths are going to kill people. Never vote for a Republican. Ever. And never vote for a Democrat who kisses up to RFK, Jr. Ever. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
Thank you, Veterans! Remember, voices matter; showing up matters!
We are horrified by the mass shooting of children at Annunciation Church in Mpls today. Join neighbors tonight for a candlelight vigil at 8pm organized by Protect Minnesota: facebook.com/events/s/ann...
Reminder: Since being elected, Trump has moved quickly to undo progress made with gun safety policies.
No, it's not any of that. It's the guns.
You didn’t need to cross the ocean for that one! I’ve seen the ad on TV: thehill.com/blogs/in-the...
I'm one of the 37 targeted below by DNI Tulsi Gabbard. I haven't had a clearance nor worked in government since 2013. This is political theater & a dangerous example of government abusing its powers to punish private citizens for openly exercising their 1st Amendment rights. My full statement:

They are trading the health of our nation; the health of future generations for big money interests. Our children's health is not for sale to big energy!! Get loud everyone!
We must move forward with PFAS protections. Get loud everyone!
Join us for a webinar: Voices of Change: Youth Leadership for Environmental Justice on Tuesday, August 26, 2025, 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM EST! This youth-led panel will showcase the power of young leaders to shape environmental policy, build coalitions, and spark social change. RSVP:
GET LOUD EVERYONE! This bill falsely sold as streamlining regulation is an ABSOLUTE PERMISSION TO POLUTE & to IGNORE ALL POLLUTANTS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO CLIMATE CHANGE. Get loud; get neighbors to get loud; get family to get loud! NO-we will not ignore science; we will not betray our children.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
This is OUTRAGEOUS. Trump is STEALING FROM US. The American people lose; no investment in manufacturing; no jobs added. GET LOUD!
EXACTLY! Maxwell is a convicted predator. These victims must be the voices we hear. The Trump regime is beyond corrupt; it is a disgusting betrayal of these victims.
That is all gone now. Trump is not investing in Intel, no money or support to build anything is going to Intel. Trump is just taking the money the CHIPS act allocated to Intel for building factories and stealing it for a 10% equity stake in Intel. Nothing but destruction of American manufacturing.
August 7: Trump demands Intel fire its' CEO, Lip-Bu Tan August 11: Trump meets with Lip-Bu Tan August 22: Trump announces purchase of 10% of Intel, and that "I negotiated this Deal with Lip-Bu Tan, the Highly Respected Chief Executive Officer of the Company." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
NOTHING NORMAL about this. US President attacking Mayor of a US city (not to mention a Veteran) as vengeance play. NO, does not get to invade US city with troops; NO, does not get to spread lies about Mayor; NO, does not get to threaten infrastructure dollars as a grotesque power play. GET LOUD!
Inexcusable! Our nation in disgrace! Never thought I'd see us siding with Russia invading a sovereign nation. This must stop; the GOP Congress must get the flip out of their fantasy land.
Trump is isolating us from the rest of the world. But know, he's locked in here with us. bsky.app/profile/carl...

Trump just attacked Biden for not allowing this. But Hegseth has also been freelancing for Putin.
This regime poses a major security risk to our nation. They are ignoring essential intelligence work while they are mired in the delusions and paranoia of a grievance possessed lunatic.
"We’re all in favor of a gold standard for science. But it’s misleading, & even a little insulting, to say that somehow NIH didn’t already support that. Everything that NIH stands for is rigor in sci...There’s some implication here that NIH has been systematically sloppy. I reject that conclusion."🛟
Does X have age verification for all users?
The latest thing Trump has done to DC: Scare the visitors away. Damaging all the businesses, large and small, that depend on them. Along the National Mall today, 1pm, on a stunningly beautiful Saturday afternoon in late August. (Article and more photos to come later today.)
There is NOTHING NORMAL nor LEGAL about this. They work for THE PEOPLE. We have the right to everything. We must hold them accountability. Make your voices heard!
Effective Friday, postal services in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and Italy announced an immediate suspension of package shipments to the U.S. due to confusion over new import duties. France and Austria will implement similar measures on Monday. #TrumpTariffs
The Trump regime can't even keep the mail running... His unhinged chaos is dragging our nation into an economic downward spiral.. This must stop.
Very rude to the vaccines that Mr. Trump basically invented himself
Five years ago, a very close relative died of a glioblastoma brain tumor at the age of 13. Today would have been his 19th birthday. And now comes news that an mRNA vaccine is being trialed to treat this very (incurable) malady. Fingers crossed. mbi.ufl.edu/2024/05/01/v...
Resistance www.reuters.com/business/hea...
Social Security changed America for the better. On its 90th birthday, I’m committed to protecting these hard-earned benefits and stop Trump’s attacks on the Social Security Administration.
Just an honest labor statistician collecting the data, crunching the numbers, and reporting them fairly, and definitely not an extremist ideologue with an axe to grind, unshackled from respect for the law or political norms.
