Happy Labor Day!
Been doing some reading on Peter Thiel, the thinkers he likes to invoke, his origins in South Africa, and the Christian School he attended there. I think it might be reasonable to start calling him Peter T-Heil
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
Police brutality in Alphabet City, NY! All those officers looked like POC. Shame! The kid was probably scared they would kill him cuz that’s happened way too many times! This is why Americans say F’ the Police. I don’t even trust the cops n that’s sad when they r supposed to protect citizens! #ny
Fifty-one of the 85 Federalist papers were written by a guy born in Nevis.
Go on. Take a wild guess who was president both times.
Ghislaine Maxwell's deposition was not under oath. She was not video taped, which is very unusual for a deposition. And there are many cuts where they stopped the audio tapes so lawyers could confer with her off-the-record. None of that stuff is the way you do a deposition.
Not white enough?
It’s great to see President Biden doing well and warmly greeted by The People while leaving church. I miss his grace, decency, and compassionate leadership. You will always be the President of my heart and the architect of my path. May God bless and protect you and your family, Mr. President.🇺🇸
donald trump has been convicted of more felonies than 99.9% of Washington DC residents.
treasonous? Tulsi Gabbard "mistakenly" revealed name of undercover CIA officer Gabbard published list of current and former officials who had their security clearances stripped. List included name of undercover agent who was a Russia expert who worked undercover in intelligence for over 20 years
open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa... We are experiencing a severe BRAIN DRAIN as experts in their respective fields leave government positions. Will America ever recover??? He is weakening our country every single day with firings & walkouts of key players🤬
"No one in the administration – the president or anybody under him – has called anyone in my administration or me – have not called the city of Chicago or anyone else. So it's clear that, in secret, they're are planning this – well, it's an invasion with US troops." Gov. JB Pritzker
Federal rules restrict who gets COVID shots. New Mexico stepped in—removing barriers so all ages 6 months & up can get protected. Let’s all get on board 💉 #BlueSky #MedSky 🧪 #IDSky #SciSky #EMSky #EMedSky #NurseSky #FmSky #PedsSky #CardioSky #ObSky

Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
JUST IN: Rudy Giuliani Seriously Injured in High Speed Car Crash
NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
Pritzker: "We want more help—civilian law enforcement help. We would like ATF agents to help us take more guns off the street. We would like FBI to coordinate with local law enforcement to help catch perpetrators. If they do that, we'd welcome it. That's not what they're doing."
ICE is America's growing Gestapo, and they must be stopped. We just tried to do that in Wisconsin. open.substack.com/pub/kirkbang...

Former National President of the United Mine Workers, John L. Lewis was born right here in Lucas, Iowa – and was one of organized labor's fiercest fighters. It's up to us to continue his legacy. That includes sending a pro-labor champion to the United States Senate.
If Missouri Republicans mid-cycle redistrict and break the law, they will be sued. That is a promise and I don't bluff. Just ask Texas. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Jesse Watters: “You weren’t ever on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet, were you?” RFK Jr: “I was on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet two times.” Release the freaking Epstein Files. Believe the survivors and their families. We want accountability.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just drew a line in the sand...refusing to let Trump’s troops or ICE turn his city into a staging ground. That’s not politics...that’s spine. Fire...fight...and the kind of defiance America needs right now.🔥
GOP Rep Chuck Edwards is confronted by infuriated constituents at his town hall.
This is a plan for ethnic cleansing. It’s morally horrific and absolutely insane
Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)

Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
Everything we take for granted — weekends, paid vacations, sick leave, safer workplaces, health care — exists because of unions.
🤣🤣🤣
RADDATZ: You talk about what can be done. After shootings in Buffalo & Uvalde, Congress passed a bipartisan Safer Communities Act. It provided hundreds of millions for schools to expand mental health services. You didn't vote for it. Why? TOM EMMER: I don't remember the reasons I didn't vote for it
Trump’s plan to rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War shows (once again) that his self-characterization as the “pro-peace” candidate was complete bullshit. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...
GORKA: Instead of blaming an inanimate object, which is the weapon, how about addressing the human being instead? KEILAR: DHS cut funding in July to the Minnesota Dept of Safety and the Hennepin Country Sheriff's Office in July that is the kind of funding used to assess mass violence threats
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
Dean Cain got exactly what he wished for: he collected ICE’s sign-on bonus, was ‘injured,’ and is now out on disability.
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
Honored that Mark is now a Democracy Docket member.🙏 The force of democracy must be with us!!!🥳
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."
Truly makes my skin crawl. Hatred just oozes out of his pores 🤮
🚨This OK lawmaker was found guilty of running a vehicle with his daughter and an adult relative off of the road and INTO a ditch, causing injuries — and he is STILL in office?!? Of course, he has a history of both domestic violence and law enforcement.

No matter what @MarshaBlackburn keeps saying, it’s not criminals they’re targeting. www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u...
Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits
What a ridiculous person.
"RFK Jr: We need to stop trusting the experts... Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy...it's a feature of religion and totalitarianism." Were he not a Kennedy...and wealthy...he'd likely be living his life out in a mental institution. Diagnosis: Dumb-Fuckery.
Release the Epstein files.

If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.
These spineless people won’t do damn thing.
Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use these laws to further exploit workers 5) Repeat Let's break the cycle and keep building back a powerful labor movement.
Since men have done such a shit job of running this country for the first 250 years, I suggest letting women run it for the next 250 years. At the end of their tenure we can decide who’s better at this.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’ve never seen a more “tax the rich” sign in my life.

California is awarding $80M through the Jobs First Initiative to support 23,000+ jobs and drive sustainable economic growth across the state. We’re putting real dollars to work to ensure regions have the necessary tools to create good-paying jobs and strong industries.
It's increasingly clear that Trump plans to ride the crime issue into a third term. That he's telegraphing so clearly how he intends to manipulate and lie to voters ought to be seen as an existential challenge to Washington journalists. presswatchers.org/2025/08/jour...
TRUMP: "I killed over a million people with my inability to understand disease." RFK Jr: "Hold my horse dewormer."
