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...

Exactly. And the falling behind happens so quietly and gradually. Youโre encouraged to budget etc. Everything increases except your paycheck.
The problem isnโt 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.
Trump spent Labor Day promoting what he called a โGolden Age,โ but the claims being pushed donโt hold up. The White House circulated talking points on social media boasting of $8 trillion in new tariff revenue, $4 trillion in deficit reduction,

This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.
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
Whenever you see a โfightโ where there is 1 person who is smaller against several larger people, itโs NOT a fight. Itโs a beating and needs to be stopped! Whoever taught these kids to do this is responsible too.

This is nothing else but a hybrid war that Russia wages against Europe Let's name things as they really are:Russia has made an assassination attempt of the President of the European Commission Russia has been jamming GPS-signals over many Eastern Europe countries that are in its immediate vicinity

9 Former CDC Directors who were all qualified for their posts are warning that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr is a danger to public health. Iโd say heโs actively destroying public health and committing murder on a daily basis with his destructive monstrous agenda.
New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."

Actually yes - wash your hands and avoid touching your face. Pathogens on your hands transfer to your face and have several entry points in to your body. The virus can travel through your mucous membranes to your respiratory system.
I saw that video. Ridiculous, bullying behavior from an adult. Unfortunately, he joins a large group of people who think this type of behavior is okay. It's not the norm and should never be. We need to make civility cool again!

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.
MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.

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.

The oldest fossil evidence shows that humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago and would have had dark pigmented skin to protect them from intense UV rays. So if you're a believer in "God," and believe man was created in his image... then it stands to reason that God is a Black man.

Hey Sen. James Lankford, stop your Orwellian doublespeak. We're not "jumping to conclusions" โ RFKjr is a dark tetrad. He knows nothing about human healthcare. He's systematically trying to cull the American public. Remove him from office. Immediately.

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.

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...
The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years. CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years. But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kidsโ futures. Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.

I finally managed to see this powerful statue in Central Park yesterday. โSponsored by the group Monumental Women and unveiled in August 2020, the monument is the first in the Park to depict actual womenโฆ Sojourner Truth speaking, Susan B. Anthony organizing, and Elizabeth Cady Stanton writing.โ
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."

Iโve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldnโt post so much about COVID19 vaccines because itโs โdivisiveโ. I am here to say that I do not give a damn what is popular. I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.

I don't know about you, but I'm tired of politics impacting things that should be nonpartisan issues. Helping families afford rent, access health care or keep their kids safe should be the focus of every leader โ regardless of party โ and that's exactly where my focus remains.

This is incredibly difficult to watch. Where is the mainstream media?? CBS, CNN, ABC, NBC you need to cover and investigate this. This is beyond human rights violations - it's murder.
Excellent question.
