Trump will make America like Russia. We will look like a normal developed nation to the outside world while everyone except the oligarchs live in luxury and the rest of us live like we’re in a Motel 6.
Brian Allen Puerto Ricans are rising up — demanding full separation from the United States, declaring they’ve had enough of being treated like a colony. No Senate seats. No presidential vote. No real voice. But somehow, they still pay taxes and die in U.S. wars.
And immigrants work and contribute to our social security.

It looks like you’re trying to speak with the dead. Is this a business necromancy or a personal necromancy?
They're being brutalized.
Bluesky has been critical to Democracy Docket's growth and reach. Nate Silver is an idiot.
Life is better in a union. Unions helped build our Social Security system. Strong unions make a strong Social Security system.
NEW — Mayor Brandon Johnson took the stage at the “Workers Over Billionaires” rally and march in Chicago. He ended his speech with a rallying cry: “No troops in Chicago. Invest in Chicago” Video here ⬇️ thetriibe.com/2025/09/live...
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.
Someone ought to throw Palantir into the fires of Mount Doom.
France preparing for war with Russia, has ordered doctors and hospitals to ready themselves for an influx of wounded and casualties, they have only until May 2026 to get ready, must be able to treat hundreds if not thousands per day. Also urges citizens prepare emergency survival kits.
No new president selected yet....
Wow
This is how they beat up on a minority they already despise to distract from guns being the #1 killer of US children. Pls read, comment, subscribe... johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/straight-w...
It’s still early, but pretty good turnout so far for Bernie Sanders and Graham Platner’s (running against Susan Collins) rally here in Maine today.
Nadler ‘said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel was committing mass murder and war crimes in Gaza “without question.”’
I remember early November 2023. I think I was the first person on US mainstream media, while at MSNBC/Peacock, to say the G-word on TV. On my show. It was seen as hugely controversial then. It's controversial no longer. It's undeniable, irrefutable, the consensus view.
Even the strongest among us feel weak at times. Even the smartest of us feel stupid at times. Even the most confident feel doubt. There is no shame in feeling that you are not always at your best. A true warrior feels these things, but strives for better. That way lies glory.
The church door opened, and two men in suits strode in, interrupting choir practice. "My," said one, grabbing up a hymnal. "Some nice hymns you've got here." "Beautiful," said the other, lighting a cigar. "Sure would be a shame if somebody... wrote bridges for them."
Happy Labor Day!
Chicago stands up against Trump! #WorkersOverBillionaires
12,000+ union baristas. Nearly 650 union elections won. We're strong, we're united, and we're ready for our union contracts. Happy Labor Day, Starbucks... it's your move.
Hell yeah @terrigerstein.bsky.social with the most important labor day weekend article I've read. Adding ALL THE HASHTAGS! #SolidaritySeason #WorkersOverBillionaires #WorkersLaborDay #WorkersDeserve #LaborDayWeekend #LaborDay
About to march! #WorkersOverBillionaires Chicago
The United States has seen 291 mass shootings in 2025. That’s more than one mass shooting every day. This isn’t normal. Weapons of war don’t belong on the streets. We need real action to save lives.
This weekend Idaho is wearing “Fightin’ Taters” helmets.
"Public health will never look the same. But this isn’t just a story about science... ...every woman watching knows what Moneraz risked & why it matters. If one woman at the top of the CDC can hold her ground vs a president trying to tear down science, every one of us can hold our ground too"
This makes me uncomfortable. Not only is this a question of ethics & respect, but perhaps these two archaeologists should ask themselves WHY a tech titan from Meta would want to locate heritage sites in resource-rich, Indigenous regions like the Amazon. www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...
The situation so far… #LifeOfMarv
8/31/25: Massive music festival has erupted right yesterday in Washington D.C. against the Trump regime. Don't bother checking cable news... they're not showing it. Who's streets? Our streets!!
President Trump has ended collective bargaining rights for more than one million federal workers. Unions have sued to block the move, but agencies are terminating contracts as litigation continues.
You are visiting a church. What is your worst hymn outcome? A: The hymnal contains “Colors of the Wind” from Pocahontas B: The week’s hymns include John Piper’s hyperCalvinist lyrics to “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” C: The week’s hymn list includes “America the Beautiful” D: No hymns, just Bethel

Revoking an entire nationality’s visas is collective punishment and never acceptable — especially in this moment when millions of Palestinians lack equal rights, basic healthcare, and so much more at home, forcing them out of the US is unfathomably cruel. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/w...
Jones: “This administration shows more outrage over a Cracker Barrel logo change than over the policies letting our kids be gunned down in school.”
On this Labor Day, let's remember that today isn't likely to offer a respite for those--disproportionately women, and especially women of color, immigrant women, and low-income women--who do the unpaid and underpaid labor of care. In fact, that labor may even be greater on days "off" like today. 1/🧵
At least Putin has more lifelike body doubles.

One strange advantage of fascism is that a surprising number of intellectuals appear to find talking about it incredibly boring: it’s so facially evil. “Fascism bad” doesn’t seem worth anyone’s time so it often gets attacked only as part of a collateral attack on other, more interesting targets.
The Morning Monty says “come hither,” for he has no sunbeams and he would appreciate the warmth of a good snuggle.
The only way we change this is by demanding it, regulating it, and building social programs for the benefit of all. We had the pro-worker political will in the early 20th century to make this happen. We can do it again. Happy #laborday
RFK Jr Says Lifetime Of Trauma And Heroin Addiction Not To Blame For Insane Opinions
Medicare for all. Paid leave. Universal childcare. Break up corporate monopolies. Take on Wall Street greed. Get big money out of politics. Support unions. Raise wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda.
If they enact a new illegal congressional map, Missouri will be sued.
In a world first, over 250 media black out their front pages and broadcasting programmes to protest the killing of journalists in Gaza Lhttps://rsf.org/en/world-first-over-250-media-black-out-their-front-pages-and-broadcasting-programmes-protest-killing
Writing Vance an angry letter was one of Francis' last acts on this Earth.
Courts still matter.
Mayors are not named crazy stuff like "Zohran Mamdani". Mayors have regular American names like "Fiorello LaGuardia"

Fascism arrived Teachers vilified Doctors arrested Scientists shunned Librarians threatened Pregnancy kills Disease welcome Hatred grows War approaches Reality manipulated Laws weaponized Violence rewarded Empathy demonized Books burned Schools closed Innocents killed Futures gone (2-14-2025)
When unions win, we all win! This Labor Day, we’re thanking the organized labor movement for all of the hard-fought policy victories we take for granted: - paid holidays - family and medical leave - weekends - overtime pay - workplace safety standards And so many others!
POV: It’s a lazy morning and Billy wants pets and scritches
The surest and fastest route to social unrest is to drive people to hunger, threaten their health, and destroy their finances. His plan is to cause social unrest in order to invoke emergency power, and then perpetual rule. The very same plan was behind January 6.
I didn’t really need more evidence that RFK Jr is nuts and delusional.
PragerU spelled certify wrong on the Oklahoma certificate of completion, because of course they did.
Labor Day was invented by George Washington during the Revolutionary War to flush out British spies, who would give themselves away by spelling it "Labour Day".
I wish people would stop blaming COVID mitigation policies for the acceleration of right wing extremism, and instead acknowledge the fact that we endured a mass casualty and mass disabling event that was mismanaged by narcissistic authoritarians who shifted the blame to marginalized communities
They're both lying to you.
Generations of workers in America bled and died to win dignity on the job. They stood together against those who refused to recognize their humanity. On Labor Day, as fascism rises again, we honor those who came before us and carry forward their spirit of solidarity & defiance. Fight like hell. ✊
Go on. Take a wild guess who was president both times.

Didn't he pull the same shit last year?
Musk now supporting the deportation of anyone who isn’t white. *Do not* use the term “remigration”. It’s an attempt to normalise Nazi hate.

It is insane to me that the richest man in the world is using his global megaphone to call for millions of British people to be rounded up and deported (including my family) and somehow this isn’t even news.
Just visited the ruins of the Smallpox Hospital on Roosevelt Island. I was looking for a sign announcing that RFK Jr. will begin renovations soon because, you know: Make Smallpox Great Again.
If I were trying to win elections and arguments, I simply would be doing everything I could to move UK political conversation away from a website run by an avowed enemy who believes and writes this stuff about me:
If you needed any more reasons to hate Kyrsten Sinema:
I just want to stress again that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is such a conspiracy theorist and malevolent human being that he thinks his father's assassin didn't kill him & wants him set free. That's the kind of monster we're dealing with in RFK, Jr.
This text is quoted accurately. It is also a clarifying lie. Totalitarian governments know that normal people do not have time or resources to research every health, economic, or security issue. Their project of attacking all expertise is a project of seizing trust & thus power for themselves.
Disabled activists get far too much shit for not doing 'real activsm' Im sick of it Being disabled tends to put certain limitations on you and what kind of activism you do, but we use what we have at our disposal - which often isnt much
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.
(guy who's about to invent fermentation) nah i bet it's still good
Happy Labor Day, Illinois!
Far too little gratuitous capitalization to be a Trump post.
Stephen Miller is REALLY bad at pretending to be Trump. Like this doesn’t even almost sound like a Trump tweet
