Yesterday, Trump had a press conference in the Oval Office. He said,

"You know, our country was the strongest, believe it or not, from 1870 to 1913. You know why? It was all tariff-based. We had no income tax...

This argument working with voters relies on historical illiteracy. This admin knows very well that the Gilded Age was marked by extreme wealth disparities - that’s why it appeals to them. But for it to work, voters need to know *nothing.* More evidence for why history education is goddamned vital.

FOR THE WORKERS, NOT THE BILLIONAIRES: MAY DAY SOLIDARITY RALLY · May Day Strong Across the district — from transit workers, to restaurant employees, to federal civil servants — the working people who keep our city running are rising up. We are demanding a country that puts our families over billionaires, public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, housing over slumlords. Musk, Trump and their fellow oligarchs are creating a vicious race to the bottom. They want to erase our labor rights, bust our unions, steal our wages, slash our benefits, and take away our power. But this May Day 2025 we are fighting back against their war on working people — and organized labor is the most powerful weapon we have. Workers across the DMV are rallying alongside UNITE HERE Local 25 restaurant workers in solidarity for their right to organize and our collective right to have a say in our workplaces. Unionbusters like Stephen Starr and Elon Musk, think their wealth gives them all the power, but we know a working class united can never be defeated. We are organizing not just for one day, but to build labor power across the district: in every shop floor, school, restaurant, and federal building. STOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. THIS IS MAY DAY, JOIN US.

🚨 WARNING: Trump is now openly talking about deporting American citizens to El Salvador. His words: “Home growns are next. The home growns. You gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough.”

Do not ignore this. Spread it everywhere. Rise up!

The Arctic Ocean could see its first ice-free day as early as 2027, with a likely window within 9-20 years after 2023. This won’t bring dramatic change overnight, but it marks a fundamental shift in the Arctic’s natural environment—a stark warning about climate change. #ActOnClimate
