We have the bill AND the bipartisan support to restore union rights for 1 million federal workers!

Itโ€™s time to get it done.

Tell your representatives: pass the Protect Americaโ€™s Workforce Act! act.aflcio.org/call_campaig...

Report: Donors to Trumpโ€™s White House ballroom have $279B in federal contracts The White House ballroomโ€™s donor list contains heavyweights in the tech, financial and defense sectors, including Google, Comcast and Lockheed Martin.

Trump is selling influence by the square foot.

His billionaire donors helped fund his new $300 million White House ballroom, and together they hold $279 BILLION in federal contracts.

Itโ€™s pay-to-play corruption at the highest level.

From health care to groceries to housing โ€“ the cost just to live is rising fast. But Trump is focused on ballrooms, billionaire tax cuts, and bailouts of foreign dictators. Letโ€™s bring down these costs, starting by reversing disastrous policies that spike the cost of health care.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is โ€œthe presidentโ€™s main priorityโ€โ€ฆnot reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcareโ€ฆ.building a ballroom

The GOPโ€™s blaming Democrats for the shutdown. If Democrats actually had that much power, youโ€™d have paid parental leave and free insulin, not furloughs.

We canโ€™t pay air traffic controllers during the shutdown, making us less safe, but we can send $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

Make it make sense.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Donald Trump just said women should โ€œtough it outโ€ in pregnancy and that thereโ€™s โ€œno downsideโ€ to not taking Tylenol. This is textbook medical misogyny! Dismising womenโ€™s pain and health needs. And it... TikTok video by Doctor Michael

Just tough it out.

Try an intrauterine biopsy without anesthesia or sedation.

Or only ibuprofen post-cesarean for pain management.

Womenโ€™s healthcare is too often barbaric, you tough it out.

Or better yet, try leaving medical advice to the experts.

When we have whole communities without clean drinking water, should we commit millions of gallons to data centers? Should we exempt the nations largest oil & gas owner Diversified Energy Company from water pollution protections?

Asking for 1.5 million West Virginians.

โ€‹โ€‹Trump Tried to Kill the Infrastructure Law. Now Heโ€™s Getting Credit for Its Projects.

Trumpโ€™s back at it - stealing valor & value. He fought to kill Bidenโ€™s Infrastructure Law, now he's bragging about the projects it funds.

Iโ€™ve seen the road signs for years. Biden got it done. Trump is so desperate for an economic win, he's snatching credit from Joe.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

โ€˜Peace deal between Rwanda/Congo is temporary.

Egypt/Ethiopia, no deal on the table.

Kosovo/Serbia, no evidence he was involved or that a major conflict was emerging.
