Trump's post is a federal crime. 26 USC Β§ 7217.

This is a generational moment. Every time labor has been knocked down, we get back up stronger than before.

Throughout the first 100 days of the Trump admin, America’s unions have been relentlessly fighting back against the billionaire takeover, and we’re winning.

A federal judge in Texas issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration from using a rarely invoked wartime law to deport Venezuelan migrants held in the state to El Salvador.

Total Construction Spending: Manufacturing in the United States Total Construction Spending: Manufacturing in the United States

If we are to bring manufacturing back to America, we must lay the foundation first. Tariffing the rest of the world before building our manufacturing capacity first is not a winning strategy. President Biden, as the graph shows, was trying to do this, and it has stagnated now under Trump.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media hereβ€”but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Your American allies.

This union busting bullshit is an attack on working people. First, it’s millions of federal employees. Next, it’ll be you.

Trump is bulldozing a path to strip away workers’ rights across every industry and consolidate power to the richest CEOs.

I stand with our union brothers and sisters. Always.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Judge orders urgent release of DOGE records, citing β€˜unprecedented’ power and β€˜unusual secrecy’ It’s the first significant ruling in a growing legal push to pierce DOGE’s secretive veil, a decision that undercuts Musk’s repeated insistence about the operation’s transparency.

DOGE has been slashing jobs, dismantling agencies, and making government decisions in secret. A judge just ruled that the American people deserve to see what’s really happening.
