Opinion | It’s Labor Day. And Trump Is the Most Anti-Union President in Decades. Why the labor movement needs to act like its future is under grave threat.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

Donald Trump is the most ruthlessly antilabor president since before the Great Depression. If the labor movement does not fight harder than it has since he regained the presidency, its future will be dire, Erik Loomis writes.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

JUST NOW: Bernie tells the crowd about Trump attacking Iran, the crowd erupts into “NO MORE WAR!” chants

Bernie calls the attack “grossly unconstitutional”

Protesters filled plazas, streets and parks across the U.S. on Saturday, gathering at demonstrations to call for protecting American democracy from President Trump. Follow live updates. nyti.ms/4e3BIzD

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Opinion | This Never Happened With an American President Before Trump’s behavior in the Oval Office with Zelensky was an unparalleled break with American foreign policy.

"In a major war in Europe, our president clearly sided with the aggressor, the dictator and the invader against the democrat, the freedom fighter and the invaded."

Opinion | The MAGA War on Speech If only the powerful are free to speak their minds, it’s not free speech.

"The Orwellian nature of this approach is deliberate and dangerous."

The MAGA War on Speech www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/o...

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

Why It Matters Who Asks the Questions When the White House handpicks reporters to cover the president, the American public suffers.

“If, as it has begun to do, the White House gives preference to Trump-friendly outlets, it will restrict the ability of fair, independent journalists to hold some of the most powerful people on the planet to account,” @jonlemire.bsky.social writes:

Zelenskyy showed more courage and intestinal fortitude today than the entire Republican Party since 2016. It's shocking to see someone refuse to bend the knee and become a supplicant.

Young Man, There’s No Need to Feel Down Democrats struggle to compete with the messaging that drove men under 30 to Trump in 2024.

YouTube video by Rep. Ayanna Pressley Rep. Pressley Rallies to Save CFPB from Trump-Musk Takeover

Trump and Musk don't want watchdogs like the CFPB protecting the people.

They want big banks and bad actors to run rampant and take people for a ride.

They want to pillage the government and make themselves rich.

But we won't let them.
