Happy Labor Day Iowa! Today, we recognize the work of organized labor to secure the 40-hour work week, safer working conditions, and better wages for working families. I am proud to stand in solidarity with union labor as we celebrate the hardworking people who keep our state and country running.

I doubt that I will ever cease to be disgusted to see the term 'ReTruths' at the bottom of those posts. The overt manipulation disguised as "branding" is repulsive.

The police version of the crash, as relayed by a local Manchester reporter, is unsurprisingly quite different from what Giuliani's spokesman says. The whole thing is even more murky now, however. manchester.inklink.news/rudy-giulian...

During the 2024 campaign, Trump promised to cut energy prices "in half" within 12 months. As you can see from the graph, he's well on the way. Wait, no...he's well on the way to doubling energy prices, not cutting them in half.
He curdled. and also... 👇
“Diversity of thought is, in many ways, harder to be comfortable with than demographic diversity,” Arthur C. Brooks writes. Corporate leaders should turn curiosity about others’ beliefs into a cultural norm. It’ll be great for their business too: https://theatln.tc/7IegYzMp

This. 100% this. To anyone who bought what cynics were selling and voted any other way... you caused this. Your fear, greed, and stupidity caused what is happening now. "Wrong 1% y'all" means the little things are just little and end up being distractions upending the bigger picture - democracy.

Black women have every right to be furious. The irresponsible choices of white voters has for many of us, taken our livelihood with consequences for our homes, the education of our children, our ability to care for parents. It’s unconscionable. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...

🤔 Strange timing: as Rosneft struggles under sanctions and Russia’s Venezuela oil stake reshuffles, the U.S. ramps up military ops near Venezuela under the banner of going after cartels. Hard not to wonder if there’s more at play than what’s being said. @housedemocrats.bsky.social

61 years ago, the Food Stamp Act became law—launching what we now know as SNAP, America’s most effective anti-hunger initiative. Now, Republicans have gutted it in their Big, Ugly Bill—cruelly taking food from the mouths of our children and families who need it most.

to me - doesn't at all. Just sayin' on behalf of the troglodytes that get their boxers bunched over those terms. I think they should just admit that they're interested in the terms because they're thinking with their amygdala.
Just a reminder.....

Not surprised that Vets are calling that 🍊🤡🐷 "abusive"
Possibly the World Wide Web has a Wild Wild West purview? By that I mean, the most successful have - rode long and hard to get there first - grabbed what they could - benefitted from lack of rules or enforcement and in so doing, have perpetrated the myth, which in turn makes them fear rules?
💯. He just wasn't smart enough to be president - couldn't see the whole picture. He thought he was doing right for the country, but he didn't have the knowledge base. He was a smooth talker though... I wanted to make a reference to Mrs. O'Leary's cow and the Chicago fire but that's been debunked.
What kind of class? like remedial math class? Oh, 👇 class where you wear a jacket with "I REALLY DON'T CARE, DO U?" emblazoned on it to a detention center where migrant children were being held. “It’s nice that she had a jacket made to display her wedding vows” [credit to Seth Meyers]
How sad that such a racist statement is the current truth. I wasn't around in the 60's but I know that so many benefitted from the protests, debates, legislation, court rulings, fights, and 'good trouble'. It breaks my heart to think that ignorance, greed and complacency are undoing all that work.
Americans are paying over 20% more for coffee under Trump than under Biden. When Trump brags about tariff collections, he's bragging about his tax on your cup. Good morning!

I would have a hard time arguing against the possibility that many of the US administration's actions look a lot like eugenics.
The luckiest people in the world are those who are happy. It's hard to be happy when you're not healthy. So don't do stupid things with your health like listening to RFK Jr and other grifters and charlatans. Your health decisions deserve the best advice based on solid evidence. Make your own luck.

Do you believe some of these farmers work out here in their bare feet? I've also pulled over 30 farm knives out of their fields.. I like to walk tilled fields after we get a rain shower. It's an easy way to find old pottery pieces, pipe stems, and who knows what. You dont even need a metal detector!

The meaning of woke has evolved/devolved into a pejorative catch-all for many people, which serves as a criticism of inclusivity and progressiveness by those unwilling or unable to discern that the words 'liberty' and 'liberal' have the same root.

Possibly the only reason it could matter whether someone is a 'man' or a 'woman' is if someone's trying to decide if they want to f*** them? What about being a decent HUMAN BEING that people want to have a conversation with, have as a neighbor, sit beside on the bus, or represent them in gov't?
"We are a nation with a bully-in-chief, an ogre of hate and pettiness who feeds off of the suffering of others. The tools of rule are violence, humiliation, and fear. And the only people who can now make careers of government work are those willing to ply this trade."
