Someone just said DEI ruined our schools. Interesting because Massachusetts is number one where education is concerned and they wholeheartedly believe in DEI. Just ask Maura Healey, the only openly lesbian governor in the country #USDemocracy

And Don't Leave out Chump's Pedophilia !!!!!!
I'm With Pope Leo on This One.....
Robert is Correct......
Kudos to all who were out there protesting yesterday 👊🏼 This is the energy we need, and we can't let up. The stakes are too high! Keep putting pressure on this administration. Sharing the incredible atmosphere of #resistance with these photos! 💙🫂💙 #StopTheMadness #StopTrump #Resist 👊🏼 #resistance
Labor Day has been a real success, well done America 🇺🇸💙.
Shameful
One of my Supreme Court reform takes is they should be completely barred from taking any outside income (incl. publishing deals) and it should be particularly frowned upon, normatively, to be writing books. Memoirs are for writing after you retire, not five years into a lifetime appointment.
Hi Ray!
This Labor Day is one for the history books!!! 💥💥💥
Wow imagine that
when they stop being funded by billionaires
Is this the *emergency* you had in mind when you took these National Guard troops from their families @GovBillLee?
Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, what’s the timeline for the book on how the President went missing like a week after he had weird bruising on his hands?
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.
Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
Your Labor Day reminder that if the minimum wage increased at the rate of inflation & productivity since 1960 it'd be $28 today—not $7.25. Meaning—billionaires & corps have stolen at least $21/hour from working Americans for 60 years. We don't suffer a lack of resources—but from an excess of greed.
More framing like this, please www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
Bless the governors who are coordinating this! 🙏💕🦋
Republicans control the Senate But with Roy Cooper in North Carolina, the emergence of @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social in Iowa and Sherrod Brown maybe returning in Ohio, the map looks a lot better If Democrats beat Susan Collins and @ossoff.bsky.social holds his seat, the balance of power will change
BREAKING: MASSIVE RALLY FORMING IN MAINE AGAINST SUSAN COLLINS.
📢 Release the Epstein files! #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #Voices4Victory
By far my favorite part of January 6.
NYT reports TRUMP & MODI had a falling out because Modi wouldn’t back Trump’s lie that he brokered the India-Pakistan ceasefire — a lie 🇺🇸 media has let him get away with with even as India’s media has openly mocked him for it. Video: x.com/thetnholler/...
There's very little that the billionaires hate more than workers having rights.
The Presidential Medal of Freedom is now less valuable than a few Chuck E. Cheese tokens.
We’re all complaining about the poor quality of journalism in the MSM, and rightfully so. Here’s a solution: don’t use it. Fewer views = less revenue. They respond to the marketplace same as any other business. I get 90% of my news from NPR…and I contribute every month.
Labor Day in San Francisco: fantastic day for a massive protest! The streets are packed and the general mood is awesome! 😎
18K US Doctors Signed Quickly! Remove RFK Jr because he endangers lives. More are signing every minute!
📌NOTE: Apparently, our legacy national media suddenly have other things to do than report on the failing health of the greatest threat to America since the Civil War — which is odd when all we heard about for two years leading up to the 2024 election was Joe Biden’s age and fitness for office ...
Putin's top propagandist and a former economics professor at the University of Alabama, Vladimir Solovyov, threatened that Russia would “march on Paris” after France’s President Macron called Putin "a predator and an ogre at our doorstep".
NYT: “When Tennessee’s Republican governor @GovBillLee dispatched troops to support Trump’s crackdown on crime, critics wondered why he didn’t keep them within state lines. Memphis has a murder rate twice DC’s, Nashville’s is higher as well.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
Defend democracy. Defund billionaires. Defeat fascism.
🎯
Labor Day in Nevada County! Powerful message 💙
I’m not sure you can actually call another country weak if yours got taken over by a genocidal game show host. Threats to humanity are threats to humanity no matter their effectiveness.
Bluesky is now among and often *the* highest referer to @motherjones.com. That’s traffic that has been additive. Only Twitter has dipped btw, the rest as fairly steady state (and instagram impressions and video views on all platforms up enormously.)
Denver, CO showing out! 9/1/25
There is a news conference scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday, September 3, at the House Triangle in Washington, D.C., for survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse. #Justice4Survivors #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles
Hours after trying to assassinate the EU Commission president, Russia tried to assassinate Germany’s military's inspector general, Carsten Breue, the highest-ranking general in the Bundeswehr. His plane was also jammed once over the Baltic Sea and once over Lithuania.
Bluesky has been critical to Democracy Docket's growth and reach. Nate Silver is an idiot.
Still talking about Epstein
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson speaks at a Labor Day rally, where he calls for "No federal troops in the City of Chicago!" and says "We're gonna defend our democracy in the City of Chicago!"
Remembering when the NYT went on a weeks-long bender covering a decades-old real estate deal the Clintons were involved in, in which they *lost money*.
Trump Tower NYC: Protesters have gathered outside the building to demand Trump’s resignation.

More of Austin: Labor Day protesters are marching to the Capitol!
So there’s a thing I’ve noticed repeatedly from people who are still on X, The Everything App - they’re constantly making weird accusations about Bluesky that don’t make any sense if you’re on here, and I think it’s a sign they’re deeply insecure about posting to X, The Everything App.
“Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
Atlanta right now: many protesters joined the Labor Day rally! Amazing 🤩
Hahaha
Downtown Baltimore: Labor Day parade is held in the city center and many protesters have gathered to show their rejection of the Trump administration
In case you are wondering what is going on today at WaPo and Democracy Docket.
Back when Donald was a failure in real estate, he was famous for not paying his contractors. He would come up with fictional fault in their work as an excuse not to pay them. Now, this unscrupulous cretin is short-changing the National Guard. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...
@50501sd.bsky.social ✊❤️
Status quo bros really hate it when progressives find community.
Dear god ... Emmett Till was 14 ... We are still remembering his horrifying lynching 70 yrs ago ... I am truly sickened ...
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
Local news: If you watch it through, it sounds like the police are referring to this as a “fight.” This wasn’t a fight. It was a race-based attack. On August 16, 2025, a 14 YO Black teen from Platteville, Wisconsin, was attacked by white teens at a party in the town of Pulaski, Iowa County. 3/4
Video shows white teens punching him while yelling racial slurs like “F*** that n up” and “kill that n.”At one point, they shoved him against a meat grinder, then slammed him to the ground and kept beating him. This is not “kids being kids.” This is racial violence in 2025, in Wisconsin. 2/4
The US is abundantly wealthy. EVERY person here could have health care, a roof, food, & a way to contribute that fits their capacities. The #GOP are making sure the rich get richer & the poor get poorer. Then they blame the poor for not praying hard enough - while they protect child rapists.
"To pretend that her death deserves the same recognition as that young soldier at the gate is obscene. It is a betrayal of the oath she once swore and a desecration of the sacrifice made by so many who kept faith with theirs."
I'm just gonna flip on some corporate media really quick... ABC: ads CNN: ads Back to CNN: Trump's Chicago "immigration enforcement" MSNBC: Protests in Chicago Back to ABC: A "federal judge getting in the way of Trump's immigration crackdown" Back to CNN: Weekend travel Nothing about Trump MIA
Russia, Russia, Russia!! HOAX!! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
The #PedoRapist, RFK Jr, Stephen Miller, and John Roberts are the 4 most dangerous men in the USA today. Those nasty creeps should be the primary reason to vote against them and the entire GOP. It's time to take out the garbage because the place has quite a terrible stink right now! #EpsteinFiles
Trump wants to erase Black history stating it’s too “woke,” not enough energy is spent on American "Success" and "Brightness.” Our nation is great because of Black geniuses. There are so many inventions by Black people. Often never receiving proper recognition for their valuable contributions.
You know all those slasher-horror movies where they go in the haunted house or down the basement? And you scream, "OMG, how TF could they be so dumb!?" Yeah, well – that's America right now, with RFK jr as the head of HHS, including the CDC, NIH, etc. No good endings. Insane AF.
I love how music transcends not only every human but every species. That’s why I love all musicians because they share a message that resonates with every living being on this planet.
It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections. Support pro-democracy independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Here’s Katie.. from what I understand Maria has never been found and I thought the FBI said that they thought she was dead, but I could be wrong.
More than 1,000 protests are scheduled today all across America. Large crowds will be standing up to the Trump regime, and joining major unions for “Workers Over Billionaires” events. More here:
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.
Thank you all!
Happening Now — Washington DC: Pretty massive rally is forming at 14th and U NW.
The assault on black women in power by this regime must end! If Trump thinks he is going to bully and threaten this organization, he better think again! This pattern of abuse that is snaking through this country has gone on long enough!
This should be the lead story in all major national news outlets. Public health people prefer to stay out of the limelight unless there is no other choice. I can’t overstate how bad things have to be for 9 former CDC directors to band together and pen an op-ed in the NYT warning the entire country.
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.
Hahaha
Just sayin’.
*Trump* may not be canny enough to be *planning* to weaponize the government in a methodical way, but "there are people behind the scenes...and they know what they're doing." @radiofreetom.bsky.social talks Trump's abuses of power and more with @timmiller.bsky.social:
