TIM DILLON: “Get over it. We’re taking the money.” Some of the biggest 🇺🇸 comedians will get $1 Million+ for 1 show in SAUDI ARABIA. Dillon says he’s getting paid to look the other way— and slaves there are probably proud of building nice hotels. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DOEESmI...

I don’t normally ask to hear from the president but it’d be nice to see if he can still complete a sentence
This Labor Day, the WH released an exceptionally hyperbolic falsity, even for them. They said the US has generated $8T in tariff revenue (yes, that's $8,000,000,000,000) - AND hundreds of thousands new jobs (see last jobs report), accompanied by a stock photo of the current (possibly dead) president
KOH: “Trump Stripped 1 million workers’ bargaining rights while plastering his face on the Labor Dept… Closed miner health clinics… Cut $2.4 Billion from youth & senior job programs… This is the real story of Trump & Labor.” #LaborDay

Putin's aide Ushakov: Now everyone is talking about a trilateral meeting, about a meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy. But as far as I know, there was no agreement between Putin and Trump specifically on this.

When our working families are strong, Minnesota is strong. That’s why we’ve established paid leave, expanded the right to collectively bargain, and why we’re investing in the projects creating the union jobs of the future. Happy Labor Day, Minnesota.
On this Labor Day, let me introduce you to Maddie. At five years old, Maddie wrote in her journal that she wanted to be a nurse. She knew then that she wanted to care for people. 1/

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
New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."
Yellen: “The Fed has been structured by Congress in order to allow it to make independent decisions that are not influenced by politics….President Trump has made clear he wants the Fed to behave differently… His goals are not price stability and full employment.” www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...

During Jim Crow, many states mandated that anyone seeking to register to vote or apply to a state university had to have multiple voters/alumni “vouch” for their character. It was an easy if unsubtle way to maintain all-white (or mostly-white) institutions

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.
Proof of life: Donald Trump spotted alive and healthy this morning.

Unions built this city and keep it running. They’ve fought against power and greed to make the impossible possible. Now, they need an ally in City Hall. On Labor Day, the presidents of the Hotel Trades Council, 32BJ and SEIU 1199 make the case at @cityandstateny.bsky.social.

Tina Turner hits #1 today in 1984 with “What’s Love Got to Do With It” — a song she wasn’t sold on at first. “It was terrible. .. I was rock and roll. This was a pop song.” But her manager, Roger Davies, insisted. When it swept the Grammys, she dedicated the “Record of the Year” award to him.
Stephen Miller is REALLY bad at pretending to be Trump. Like this doesn’t even almost sound like a Trump tweet

1/ If you are feeling overwhelmed by the fast paced of legal news, remember that it’s deliberate. It’s a strategy Trump uses, flooding the zone in hopes that people will tune out. Read what you need to know here to get ready for the week: joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
This is the stupidest thing ever! Trump just called for the full datasets from the Covid Vaccine manufacturers to be released. Trump's FDA has the full datasets. They required the datasets in order to approve the vaccines. The vaccines have saved hundreds of thousands of lives.

Prayers don't stop guns from operating, thoughts don't stop people carrying them into schools and public spaces, religious twaddle does not enact any legislation to stop people from shooting up the place... The US is no.1 in school shootings, that's a bad record to hold...
During his meeting with Putin, PM Modi said: Even in the most difficult situations, India and Russia have always walked shoulder to shoulder. Our close cooperation is important not only for the people of both the countries but also for global peace, stability and memory.
