Exactly. Look at FDR.
Citizens of Maine, you have been badly served.
Seriously? If so every news post should lead with that fact because that is way more telling than these asinine things he's saying about BlueSky and whatever else.
I can’t do it anymore, but thank you all for your efforts! 💙💙💙💙 When you receive your ballot in the mail in early October, VOTE YES ON PROP. 50 to fight back & defend democracy as you help stop Trump’s power grab. Please pass on this message.

Wow so many American flags (well it is a Navy town)
🪧🇺🇲#LaborDay in #SanPedro in front of the Merchant Marine Veterans Memorial. Lots of honks and waves!
Bingo!
You were right the first time, RFK Jr.
One of the best #LaborDay songs of all time: Which Side Are You On? Gentlemen, can you stand it? Oh, tell me how you can Will you be a gun thug or will you be a man? chorus Which side are you on? Which side are you on? By Florence Reece open.spotify.com/track/29c7I4...

Great! You might like this list I compiled over the years: open.spotify.com/playlist/6NR...
I made this true story comic to show protesters how sneaky agitators are. Don’t let them rile you, and Hold the Line.
Brilliant! Both the story and the art!
We keep protesting anyway. LA Times, CNN and lots of local outlets covering www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...
Morning, it’s Labor Day and there are a massive amount of protests scheduled to take place nationwide. www.newsweek.com/map-list-cit...

I took a break from planning our High Holiday Gatherings (link below if you want to join us) to go to the Dahlia Show. I want to share the beauty with you - It was hard to choose which ones because there were so many beauties. It’s essential to keep seeking beauty in these painful times.

No, NY. Not sure of that reference. But highly recommend this book JFK and the Unspeakable www.thriftbooks.com/w/jfk-and-th...

"reducing crime" 👀
And JFK went after Dulles and the CIA...

RFK Jr. is like the guy you never wanted to have to partner with in science class. He thought he knew the answers and is ultimately the guy who would light his hair on fire, and now he's lighting all of HHS on fire.

They are terrible even without Bezos.
Same here. Likewise with Walmart (for years) seeing them ruin small town business. Now added Target and Home depot. Home depot is the hardest!

@freedcproject.bsky.social is showing us how to fight authoritarianism: plan ahead, lead with values, push institutions, give clear steps and prepare for the long fight. Read our latest for @wagingnonviolence.org: wagingnonviolence.org/2025/08/free...
🚨 #ICE relies on #Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its primary cloud storage, the biggest broker of cloud storage space in the world. With AWS, #DHS is able to store and share huge amounts of information used to target #immigrants. #BoycottAmazon & Whole Foods, Audible, Ring @freedcproject.bsky.social
We won't shop at companies that profit off detention. Beginning today, we call on everyone who wants ICE out of our communities to #BoycottAmazon and all of its consumer brands, including #BoycottWholeFoods. Sign the pledge and tell us you're on board: FreeDCproject.org/amazon

Workers built this country and we’re taking a stand against the billionaires this #LaborDay! Be part of the movement! Spread the word! 50501Harrisburg.com maydaystrong.org #LaborDay #WorkersOverBillionaires
www.npr.org/2025/08/28/n... "Alligator Alcatraz" soon will hold no detainees. Volunteers monitoring the site have seen at least three buses containing detainees leaving the facility. "It's a relief that the state appears to be phasing out operations ... in compliance with the judge's order.”
💥 Resistance: "With only their cell phones, medical kits, and the confidence to assert their rights, volunteer night patrols follow and record the armed troops who have taken over the capital." We can do this!
Hopefully you and your friends will wake them up.
So there are millions that should go to all those he and other wealthy abused.

They are still working on sovereign states, etc.
Want to learn how you can use power research to support your campaign? Visit our Map the Power Toolkit for power research resources, case studies and video tutorials. mapthepower.net
At last week's Research Tools for Organizers training we were joined by two organizers from @nychange.bsky.social to talk about their Make Billionaires Pay Campaign and how they used power research to grow and strengthen their movement.
📌
The billionaires underestimate us. Let’s show them just how united we are. Join a Workers Over Billionaires protest this Labor Day by finding one near you: MayDayStrong.org.
Can’t join a protest? There are many alternatives for resistance:
“Algorithms isolate us and deprive us of information that is useful for our collective life. The techlords and their ideology are mortal enemies of humanity and will stop at nothing to impose their dystopias…. trying to prevent us from stopping the collapse of all human civilisations.”
September 1st, we are joining with May Day Strong to stand in support of laborers across the U.S. The U.S. recently produced weak jobs growth, amongst increased lay-offs. Our country is suffering and we increasingly can’t afford the cost of living. We’re underpaid and overworked.
It's only news that Dodgers can't hit.
So the 3 worse calls went against Dodgers?
So awkward to be living through a dystopian novel about techno-fascist billionaires who have banded together with white supremacists, Christian nationalists, and international dictators in an attempt to overthrow democracy and commit genocide, all to establish tech-enabled fiefdoms in their wake.
IYKYK Be there! @indivisible.org
Labor Day reminder: Trump thinks workers have too much time off.
One of the best signs I've ever seen Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend
Don’t forget: Nationwide protest hosted by 50501 this Labor Day!
#dodgers needed these runs from #USC
Been trying to assess what's different from last year with #Dodgers: -Mookie better defensively -Mookie worse offensively at beginning -Teoscar worse offensively -Pages better -Barnes hit considerbly better than Rushing -Muncy and Edmonds have missed a lot of games -Clayton McCullough left
Yes. Stephen and Rick call it like they see it.
Yeah the calls were terrible
My gawd. We're gonna need both @stephennelson.bsky.social AND Rick Monday to get these guys to stop making preventable mistakes. A wonder what's been the difference between this year and last? Glasnow not backing up and Teoscar not catching a catchable fly in RF. #Dodgers
Well @stephennelson.bsky.social you're going to have to sacrifice your broadcasting partner Rick Monday. It's obvious the #Dodgers need him here, too:
Ok @stephennelson.bsky.social tell Rick he is needed to teach #Dodgers when to slide, too. Oh and where to stand to signal the fellow player at home. #tootblan
I hope.
And Trump doesn't care, GOP doesn't care. Support #FreeDC @freedcproject.bsky.social
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com Today, as the Israeli government “calls on tens of thousands of reservists to participate in the cruel re-occupation of Gaza City, I implore my fellow soldiers: Refuse to report,” Yotam Vilk writes in a guest essay.
When today’s far-right pundits use concerns about natural resource scarcity to push the anti-immigrant “great replacement theory,” they’re using a playbook created decades earlier by environmentalist and white nationalist John Tanton. (Published Oct. 2024)
Rick also needs to give the #Dodgers base running lessons.
He it's better than it might have been. At least Comforto isn't in.
Dang
Sorry @stephennelson.bsky.social I didn't tag you.
Rick needs to give Glasnow lessons. #Dodgers
Stephen: BE THE UMPIRE GUY These guys have been terrible. #Dodgers
The other thing about this announcing duo is that they handle things like the passing of a beloved #Dodgers family member, longtime security staffer James Mims, with compassion and sensitivity. Reminded me of the authenticity of Vin Scully.
Got it. Here's some other advocacy groups to keep current on healthcare. medicareadvocacy.org/about/ healthlaw.org Take it easy.
Finally watching taped #BeyondthePoseidonAdveture So many questions! -Why did they bring Sally Fields with them on the wrecked Poseidon? -Is Telly Savalas really a doctor? -Why is this script so bad? -Why did #TCM show this movie? "They're either old, or they're classic. But this one isn't either."

Don't believe you're replying to me. I've worked on protecting healthcare access for many years. And my posts might suggest I do the opposite of throwing up my hands.
I have CNN on one of my options just for emergency/disaster stuff. I think they do more of that coverage than MSNBC. (Old Twitter also was much better than BlueSky for disasters.) And I record Rachel Maddow.
Hmm that's interesting...to think about what are now limited healthcare dollars (with direct consequences for who lives and who dies) and how we "triage" them. Unfortunately the Medicaid cuts will ultimately hurt urban hospitals too, except very rich ones.
"His"?? And he didn't pay for any of it. We did. (There goes your health care). And who puts marble outside as a patio? www.vox.com/politics/459...
True that
Fyi it was published by the Heritage Foundation. Russell Vought, now OMB head, wrote a chapter for Project 2025 about expanding and transforming the executive office of the presidency. But see this about Thiel www.yahoo.com/news/dei-dog...
He doesn't look that good...
Terrifying the prospective of having this guy as president. He is an evil man, plus smart. He knows better than the old demented trump and yet he goes along with all the lawless policies. A chameleon capable of transforming himself into whatever is needed in his quest for power
"Supporters of Trump were less likely to feel concern for others’ suffering and more likely to enjoy or be indifferent to others’ distress...Trump supporters were just as able as others to recognize emotions in others—they simply appeared to care less, on average." #empathy #narcissism #darktriad
Thank you, Trump voters.

Very clever
This JD Vance?
Join local resistance groups like #50501 www.fiftyfifty.one/ or indivisible.org. Keep protesting (Sept. 1). Be part of a Mutual aid network. Attend town halls. Support independent media. Don't cooperate or comply with requests, demands, or orders. Use strategic non cooperation. #SandintheGears
