Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
All kidding aside, it is so *insane* & *shocking* & *dangerous* that Corporate Media has collectively decided to completely bury objective fact that the President is uninformed, confused, and physically & mentally deteriorating.
So Trump is going to do some announcement from the Oval Office tomorrow, which means he will be jacked up on meds, giving a pre-written speech sitting the entire time/taking no questions from the media. His base will go, see! Fine! The media will shrug and move on while the best of us go wait....
For the most pathetic reason imaginable, this is why Trump's relationship with India and Modi has deteriorated so badly. America has a fucking child in the White House. 😳👇
Chicago strong! Resist! This is what democracy looks like.
Trump Trails ‘Announcement’ After Days of Health Speculation www.thedailybeast.com/trump-trails... People are going to be speculating it's about his health, but I wouldn't be shocked if it's about Venezuela or something to distract us from the Sept. 3 Epstein/Trump victims event

ive got no idea what's going on with Trump's health. But the 'biden precedent' is just so glaring and hilarious. half of 2025 has been taken up with elite press shaming of how no one ever talked abt Biden's age which was actually their main topic in 2024. Ok. Set aside that his party literally ...

The lack of ego Rep. Nadler is showing is a perfect example of putting service before self. This deserves so many props and respect. Thank you, @nadler.house.gov.
Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.

Deporting undocumented immigrant workers is increasing food prices, particularly for labor-intensive produce and dairy products. Economic analysis and historical evidence prove that removing a large portion of agricultural workers reduces supply, raise labor costs, causing prices to spike

More of Austin: Labor Day protesters are marching to the Capitol!
Why has Trump been attacking unions and workers’ rights? He wants working people to feel helpless and divided. Trump and his billionaire backers realize that the collective power of a unified labor movement outweighs their own power. Know this: Workers outnumber the oligarchs.
The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
Starting today, 2.4M Americans, including kids, lose SNAP food benefits. Stores like Freshly’s Market in Mississippi that serve low-income communities expect a 35–45% drop in sales. Children will go hungry & employees at Freshly's lose jobs. Welcome to trickle-down starvation.
If you work to earn your money, you are a worker. Labor Day is your day to celebrate the 40-hour work week, weekends off, and more. If your income comes from dividends or profits, you are a capitalist. Labor Day should remind you of the workers who make that possible.
I mean … we have a literal child rapist in the White House …
Do these tactics feel familiar? From church leadership to toxic workplaces or even families defending abusers- they love to close ranks and cause silence. Speaking up against them is hard, but your truth is stronger than all their rallying forces combined. Don’t let them drown you out.
