shot, chaser fuck you white lives matter, you’re not welcome in Livingston county

NEW: Gwynne Wilcox—the NLRB Board Member illegally fired by Trump—has filed a lawsuit contesting her removal. She's represented by Gupta Wessler. This suit tees up an explosive test case about the president's power over independent agencies. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Any non-union activist groups calling for a general strike need to stop what they’re doing and shift to supporting @aflcio.org @seiu.org and other official labor groups with the actual money, resources and infrastructure to empower mass collective action.

👇🏽🎯

This is 🔥🔥🔥

Activists calling for a general strike would be much more useful finding a local labor movement and support that. Anything else right now is trying to scale a wall with no scaffolding.

PartyDems: “Ken Martin 👏👏” Leftists: “Fuck Ken Martin!” Resistance Libs: “Who the fuck is Ken Martin?”

dogs kinda have a point with being so excited to go on a walk

Can't imagine the youth will be too bummed about their high energy video app being banned when they can just log onto blue sky and read sentences written by elder millennials

y’all told me i was crazy when i downloaded all of tiktok and put it on blu-rays but who’s laughing now

Sometimes I write opinions.

Friends, I understand the urge to unplug from the media, but I never would have known my Rep was funded by “school choice” millionaires if my local newspaper wouldn’t have reported it. We need folks on the ground covering school board meetings and city council meetings and commissioner reports.

I read a comment that said “Our country is 12 corporations in a trench coat” and I’m shook with the accuracy of it.

Biden's NLRB has made it easier for workers to unionize and cracked down on anti-union practices like captive audience meetings. Like his first term, Trump's NLRB will likely be staffed with union-busting hacks who will reverse these gains. Who's really on the side of workers?

So weird how it's considered totally normal to say the word "twice", but if you say the word "thrice" you sound like a medieval traveller seeking to gain access to the dragon's realm.

There are more practical and less bloody options for improving your employee offered insurance, like unionizing. Michigan Medicine offers its employees a zero deductible plan with low monthly premiums-probably the best plan in MI - and our unions protect that.

In case you missed it, a Wisconsin judge this week struck down former Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10 law. The move will restore public sector workers' collective bargaining rights. This is a moment of celebration and hope in these troubled times.

Someone at work told her friend she’s gonna have a “Menty B” and this is now my new favorite slang word.

i’m gonna just watch this at least once a day and i recommend everyone do the same

The way the wealthy establishment demands our weary working class sympathy for Brian Thompson is selfish and grotesque. This was my mom’s letter denying radiation 4 months bf she died. She spent her last birthday in the hospital that June. These people can get fucked.

Why tf did I choose this month of all the months of 2024 to read this book??

It’s important to pace yourselves tomorrow. I made this handy guide to help👇

You all MOCKED George Lucas and said this was boring or dumb but who’s laughing now???

Mexican President Sheinbaum: "70%of the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting from meeting the drug demand in yours."

Waffle House is the latest corporation to file a lawsuit claiming that the NLRB is unconstitutional. Workers at the chain have been organizing a union, and now Waffle House wants the courts to gut the agency that regulates labor law. www.restaurantdive.com/news/waffle-...

Holy fuck, Whole Foods union just dropped. 300 grocery store workers for Whole Foods in Philly are unionizing with UFCW local 1776. As far as I can tell, this is the first organizing effort at a whole foods *store,* ever.

Over 100 people showed up to the City of Howell to tell Nazis: Get Bent michiganadvance.com/2024/11/25/u...

Ohio being awesome. Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria www.dispatch.com/story/news/c...

Republicans on the Ottawa County Board of Commissioners have capsized a $51 million affordable housing project in Coopersville. This is the type of "leadership" MAGAs voted for. Someone please explain how this will lower the cost of housing. I'll wait. www.crainsgrandrapids.com/news/real-es...

Too many people haven’t touched a book since they graduated high school and it shows.

I’ll be darned. The whole “MAGA is for the working people,” is, and always has been, fake. That’s what makes it so maddening that Democrats didn’t hammer Trump & MAGA for always being a pro-corporatist movement.

If only there had been a working class issue the Dems could have hit Trump on hard 🤔
