New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years. We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power.  If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

Her stats line up with CDC data…

RFK Jr. unilaterally removed the COVID-19 vaccine recommendation for healthy children and pregnant people. Kennedy recently said 'I don’t think people should be taking medical advice from me.' So why is he making consequential health decisions without CDC officials present???

Hell yeah! Look at Maine leading the way🔥 Public schools everywhere, take note: Do not comply in advance.

This also explains how trump uses racism as red meat for his base. If they only knew he's using their hate to fool and control them. youtube.com/shorts/aPYIS...

What happens when the richest continue to hoard the majority of resources? It's like a well that runs dry because only a few are allowed to drink. Without "we the people" they parch, they'd have nothing. They should be forced to reinvest back to the society that made them rich!

This is the God’s honest truth. Every Republican is responsible for Trump’s unconstitutional acts. Trump couldn’t get away with this without the support of Republicans in Congress and in state legislatures.

I am saddened to hear about the passing of Secretary Alexis Herman—my Soror, a trailblazer, and the first Black woman to lead the Dept. of Labor. Her impact on this country and the fight for working people runs deep. Rest in power, Madam Secretary.

Y’all, I think I found that welfare state the right wingers keep crying about

One of the best summaries of the GOP's disgusting, greedy, self-serving assault on the American people!! youtube.com/shorts/Yte7z...

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: "The United States government quite literally disappeared these people. It won't say where they are. We don't know. Their families do not know where they are. And they have essentially no recourse in U.S. courts because there are no records of their whereabouts."

Four House Democrats, Reps. Robert Garcia (Calif.), Maxwell Frost (Fla.), Maxine Dexter (Ore.), and Yassamin Ansari (Ariz.), are traveling to El Salvador to advocate for the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was “mistakenly” deported to the country by the Trump administration.

The meeting I choose to remember. 🙏

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

It's time for Republicans to do the right thing! youtube.com/shorts/FNvbg...

A new low? Tesla speeds up odometers to avoid warranty repairs, U.S. lawsuit claims. “By tying warranty limits & lease mileage caps to inflated ‘odometer’ readings, Tesla increases repair revenue, reduces warranty obligations, and compels consumers to purchase extended warranties #BlueSky #MedSky

Sitting here grinding my teeth while we're all waiting to find out if the guy who was only saved by the Supreme Court after fomenting an insurrection because he lost the election will invoke the Insurrection Act because he won a different one.
