The people in power want to destroy all that Frances Perkins was able to accomplish for millions back in the 20s & 30s & tens of millions since. Worker safety, SSA, unemployment ins, labor laws & more are threatened today. Never forget the Triangle Shirtwaist fire 147. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

On this day in 1911,146 workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. The bosses responsible were never held accountable for the awful working conditions that sparked the blaze. Remember this today as politicians and their corporate backers attack workplace safety.

114 years ago, a fire broke out at the 10-story Triangle Shirtwaist factory in NYC and killed 146 workers, mostly young women. They were trapped inside because the owners locked the fire escape exit doors.

If “every single one was here illegally,” why not give them due process and prove that? Why sing the alien enemies invocation in the dark of night and then rush people on to planes and defy a court order to turn them around?

"Give the power to the states" was also the pro-slavery argument in the 1850s -- and the pro-segregation argument in the 1950s.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted… And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right. George Orwell, 1984

Just a friendly reminder that while voters won't have another chance to remove Schumer until 2028, the Dem senators can remove him at any time if they just get together. He may be able to stay in the senate, but he doesn't have to remain leader. It's time for something new.

Chuck Schumer needs to go home and play with his grandchildren. Let someone who has the stomach to do negotiation take over the Minority Leader position. We need someone with a spine and some steel gonads. - Elizabeth Warren?

If you’re in the US, you can watch PBS for free using the app. There’s a series of documentaries called American Experience that’s really good—each is about a different event in history. Go watch The one about the Gilded Age in season 30. It feels so familiar, it’s genuinely eerie.

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety. This won’t go well—we love our parks.
