Veel zestigplussers bij protest tegen verbod op actiegroep Palestine Action in Londen. ‘Wij ouderen hebben minder te verliezen’
@repgwenmoore.bsky.social says “Trump has taken a chainsaw to employment for Black people” as over 300k Black women have been eliminated from the workforce since Feb. @darrickhamilton.bsky.social says it’s part of Trump’s dismantling of public infrastructure “for the benefit of this administration.”
"One could make the argument we should have sided with Hitler," a guest told Tucker Carlson's podcast last month. Yair Rosenberg writes about the MAGA influencers who want to rehabilitate the Nazi leader—and what they hope to gain by doing so.
The Department of Homeland Security cowardly pushed people around at the Portland protest.
In a marathon hearing on Thursday before the Senate Finance Committee, RFK Jr. faced a barrage of questions from senators who were outraged by his recent actions. In some cases, Kennedy appeared to promote flat-out lies.
OK, we houden vrijheid om te geloven wat je wil; al zijn het kabouters of elfjes, maar religie schaffen we af: verbiedt religie.

Mainstream media won't publish that! They only publish what they are told to publish.
He could have played a great parody of Trump
A new kind of civil war is here — and this is the only way to fight back
What a surprise!!!
Surprised??
🚨🚨🚨No words, just watch and listen! Holy shit. 1/2

Did RfKjr get his vaccines as a child?
That’s the problem in the US… it is for sale, the highest bidder wins…
Bought! They are all bought! 😡

Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor. Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.
Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.
That’s the big problem in the US…. It is for sale… the highest bidder wins…

military flyovers disrupt the Epstein victim press conference
It’s a cult and they are in so deep that they won’t admit they made a mistake, because in their minds they didn’t. He really could go and kill someone and they wouldn’t care. It’d be justified somehow. That’s he’s destroying America and they still don’t care. That’s what is inexcusable to me.
Let this sink in, deep
People💙Hear this clearly and see it clearly and understand that, THIS IS AMERICA 🇺🇸 #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #ProudBlue

The Dan was and is the best band ever!!!
We still miss him
#OTD, 8 years ago, we lost Steely Dan co-founder, bassist-guitarist Walter Becker. He was the sensible half, the man with the dry grin and the sharper ear. Walter Becker co-wrote the songs and cast the players… Spin “Aja,” chase it with “Deacon Blues,” and raise a glass to the quiet architect.

Exact!
De NPO is niet “3 keer de Volkskrant”, maar 4 keer de Telegraaf, en schuift steeds verder naar rechts. Programma’s met “linkse” (= kritisch op zittende macht) signatuur verdwijnen, bv Plakshot en de NieuwsBV. Een nieuw programma van Schimmelpenninck over framing en nepnieuws werd afgewezen, >>

Our biggest problem and main source of all that goes wrong in the world is one thing: INEQUALITY!
This hits harder than when I saw this movie the first time. #CaptainAmerica
BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?
Trump is isolating the US, economically and politically.. this can only end bad. Nationalism is killing!
Chile is one of the safest places for LGBTQ+ to reside. They have some of the worlds strongest anti discrimination laws. Green Day plays Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen right before they hit the stage. Here are 50,000 Chileans losing their shit this past weekend. #HumanRights #Chile #MusicSky
A Democratic super PAC is launching a $700,000 digital ad blitz slamming Susan Collins for opposing a bipartisan bill that would ban members of Congress from trading stocks. This ad accuses Collins of “the worst kind of greed… using insider information to trade stocks.” Please WATCH and SHARE. 👀
Political theater.
Pritzker: "We've gathered information from unauthorized, patriotic officials inside the government and from-sourced reporters about Donald Trump's plan, which is to deploy armed military personnel to the streets of Chicago."
My favorite sign at today's music festival.
F.cking racist KKKkunts!!!
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
Happy Labor Day to all. Throwback of Kamala Harris uplifting union member speech in Detroit last year to celebrate. 💙 ✊ 💙

Ben benieuwd wat voor plaatje je bij mijn boek zou zetten…”Drie Maanden Boca Arriba”, Willem van Kruijsdijk.
Zwitserse etiketten op vlees, zuivel en eieren moeten in komende 2 jaar gaan vermelden of er pijnlijke praktijken zijn betrokken bij de productie. Bv. castreren, onthoornen, couperen van staarten of knippen van tanden zonder pijnstilling, onder dwang voeren. In winkels en restaurants.

It’s chalk. The rain would have washed it away. But, DeSantis is so hateful n homophobic that he had to waste tax $$ to show hate towards the LGBTQ community! I say go draw the LGBTQ flag all over Florida to say 🖕🏼 DeSantis! #equality #lgbtq #florida

BREAKING: Trump announces that Rudy Giuliani will be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which is the nation’s highest civilian honor. Note that Giuliani has been charged with felonies in two different states, including racketeering and has been found liable for over $100 million in damages.
Musk and Trump escalate their attack on labor unions and the NLRB, created 90+ years ago to protect workers. This Labor Day, Popok unpacks a 5th Circuit case declaring the NLRB unconstitutional, tossing its penalties against employers—including Musk.
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.

Who Is Piotr Szczerek? CEO Accused of Taking US Open Star's Hat From Child
Tariffs don't do damn thing for her...or us either.
You won't see this on the news. In fact, you may not see this anywhere. Residents of Washington D.C. march up 14th Street on Saturday August 30, 2025 chanting "Troops Go Home".

No more GREED again!
A new Neil Young tune just dropped
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."
They're both lying to you.
So true
El multimillonario polaco Piotr Szczerek, robándole la gorra a un niño que le regala un tenista en el US Open como otra motivación más para que el Eat The Rich se haga ya realidad:
And that’s woke
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.
2-3+ times a week I clean bodily fluid *disasters* for my disabled son—the type most parents experience once or twice EVER & then tell the story to embarrass grown kids. I’m sitting here filing the nail I broke scrubbing w/nostrils burning from Lysol thinking about she wanted to help caregivers.
Ask Kennedy to cure him
She fled violence as a child, won a scholarship, dreamed of being a nurse. Instead of celebrating her, ICE jailed her for 6 months until she broke. 😡 Cruelty is not justice. We must fight for dignity & reform! #BlueCrew #Resist #ProudBlue #antimaga #AbolishICE #ImmigrantRights
