Fan mail!
The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.
Good never mattered.
A shout-out to Portland, Little Rock, Ocean City, San Diego, Indianapolis, Salem, Denver, Asheville, and Pittsburgh!
Iโm with Claude, who else is with us?!
Pritzker is promising to hold members of the Trump regime accountable. Since Bush Jr., we have failed to hold politicians accountable for their misdeeds, and that is one reason why we are in this mess.
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
Read every banned book you can get your hands on. Give them as gifts. Quote from them every day.
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.
A good man. A great actor. He left the world a better place for being in it.
On September 1, 2025, we lost a true legend. Graham Greene, Oneida from Six Nations Reserve, walked on at the age of 73. Over the span of more than 175 acting credits, he gave us characters that were unforgettable, complex, and real. redpopnews.com/remembering-... #redpopnews
The guy rocks!
๐๐ฏ๏ธA Canadian First Nations actor who opened doors for Indigenous actors in Hollywood, died September 1 in a Toronto hospital after a long illness. 72. โHe was a great man of morals, ethics and character and will be eternally missed,โ #Canada #FirstNations #Indigenous deadline.com/2025/09/grah...
Graham Greene, Dances with Wolves actor, dies aged 73
Great actor. He played great roles. Heโll be missed.
Graham Greene has sadly passed away at the age of 73. He played Skully in โEchoโ
๐จSpeaking truth to power in Atlanta, Georgia! This man is spot on. We see you, Atlanta!๐จ
Just a consoling reminder if or when needed
๐จNYC never misses a beat! Today is no different.
We want to give a big shout-out to Palm Beach Gardens, New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Houston, Albuquerque, Cleveland, and Greensboro! Thank you for showing up today and making your voices heard! ๐โ
Thank you on this labor day!!
Is that MTG๐ง

Heโs not traveling to NJ like they had announced. Not even to Florida. Sure does seem like someone is staying awfully close to Walter Reed, doesnโt it?
And illegal ICE creator
California stepping up.
Or pagan ๐ฏ
Every single news organization that doesnโt cover this press conference is complicit.
This is the absolute truth
Can someone explain please?

On August 6, 1965, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law.
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
And itโs getting hotter!
He obviously knows where heโs going.
Taken an hour ago. Healthy and fit as ever.
Dear rest of world, we hate him, too.
We need to change gears people. They continue to abuse and dehumanize. Is this going to be another Abu Ghraib where we punish the grunts on the ground and leave those that ordered and facilitated this mess go free. We must hold everyone involved accountable. Our we will never heal.
I heard it firsthand at Eloy Detention Center: women are given used underwearโcausing rampant UTIsโand people with cancer are denied specialists. These human rights abuses are bankrolled under Trump with billions in taxpayer dollars. Unacceptable. Weโre demanding change.
Now that would be fuckin awesome. Iโll have the popcorn ready.
Thou shalt not end vaccines. God will not save you from plague. The Middle Ages shouldโve made that very clear.
The people of this country who are Democrats want exactly that. Some leaders of the party and the DNC are the problem. They also have pockets that have been lined by the big corporations and the โfat cats.โ We have a voice. We can still make ourselves heard. We must. If we want to keep it.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Streetโs greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
A reminder that the Supreme Court went out of its way to signal special treatment for the Federal Reserve's removal protections in a brief shadow docket decision in May when it greenlit the firing of members of other independent agencies.

Residents are finding all sorts of ways to fight ICE: They're recording and reporting. They're wheatpasting and sharing know-your-rights materials. And they're stepping up to care for each other, from delivering groceries to walking kids to school. 51st.news/dc-residents...

๐๐๐ Governor Newsom strikes again!!
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."
One week ago, thousands of New Yorkers tried something new. They heard about it last minute. They didnโt know where it would take them or who they would meet. It was free, earnest, even educational. It was the #ZcavengerHunt and it was a thing of beauty.
This is what was lying on top of 13 YO girls.

Surely it says something that this role is going to the guy who wanted to put federal workers "into trauma."
One of the most important and urgent pieces I have written! contrarian.substack.com/p/our-guardr...
Tomorrow's press conference
"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.
Sending troops into US cities against their will. Strong-arming corporations and extracting gifts in exchange for tariff exemptions. Calling on state governments to gerrymander in his favor. Trump is the "big government" nightmare conservatives have always warned us about.
โThings happened very slowlyโ ๐
Totalitarianism rises gradually. In The Handmaid's Tale, women's rights are eroded step by step under the guise of "safety & order." Takeaway: Stay alert to small infringements on freedomsโthey often lead to greater authoritarianism. Always question policies that threaten fundamental rights. ๐งต1/9
So true
Why is Trump honoring J6 rioter Ashli Babbitt and not Capital Police Officer Brian Sicknick โ both lost their lives: Babbitt attacking The Capitol. Sicknick protecting The Capitol. Can anyone explain?
If Biden had done anything this disgusting twenty years ago the news and republicans would still be talking about it today!
