Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
People have power. Ask Target
βDisney is run by human beings. Some of those human beings are cowards. Those cowards donβt want to be named and shamed, and if you do that effectively, they will shift their behavior.β - @ezralevin.bsky.social

Weβre offering a training on how to identify, defuse, and prevent the spread of political violence. By standing up in defense of democracy and in opposition to violence, we spread the courage for more to do so.

06.09.2025 00:08 β π 429 π 147 π¬ 5 π 4The Trump regime wants to let AI decide which Medicare patients receive care (while giving AI companies a profit-incentive to deny coverage).
This cruel ploy comes as Medicare faces an urgent funding crisis thanks to the GOPβs Big Ugly Bill.
Your Members of Congress need to hear from you. π
We need Colbertβs bold and frank commentary now as much as ever, and we need to stop corporations like CBS from cowing to political intimidation of this administration. Add your name to the petition to demand they reverse their decision and keep Colbert on air! sign.moveon.org/petitions/co...

Workers are the backbone of our state and our country.
Thatβs why, since taking office, weβve invested in apprenticeships and job training, protected workerβs rights, and prioritized building pathways to work, wages, and wealth for every Marylander.
American workers and labor unions are the backbone of our nation, working tirelessly to build a stronger and more prosperous nation for all.
This #LaborDay, let us honor their contributions and dedication by continuing the fight to protect their right to organize and collectively bargain.
Why has Trump been attacking unions and workersβ rights?
He wants working people to feel helpless and divided.
Trump and his billionaire backers realize that the collective power of a unified labor movement outweighs their own power.
Know this: Workers outnumber the oligarchs.
New threats from this regime come fast β we have to move just as quickly. Fighting back against schemes like Trumpβs map-rigging takes urgent resources. Your donation makes it possible. Please pitch in if you can: secure.actblue.com/d...

People will not only be sicker because of him; they will die.
On a special Labor Day weekend Coffee Klatch, I reflect on what Iβve witnessed during my time in politics and how it connects to our struggle today.
We also discuss Trumpβs continued occupation, not just of American cities, but the American economy.
