David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

Oh, my heart 💔

NO

Sorry, but fuck ICE.

I stand with workers, not billionaires. Department of People Who Work for a Living | AFL-CIO

America’s unions and working people will not accept cuts to our essential services like Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security just so billionaires can get even more tax breaks.

We should be expanding essential services, not gutting them.

With all due respect Senator Markey YOU backed down when you voted with the republicans budget that hurts those you claim to represent.

Your country needs you.
Your state needs you.
Your community needs you.
Your family needs you.
This Saturday, STAND.

🚨🚨🚨🚨

Not a SINGLE Democratic senator should vote for the Republican spending bill. Doing so would simply further embolden and empower Trump in his effort to destroy our government and the vital services it provides.

STAND YOUR GROUND AND FIGHT — LIKE HOUSE DEMOCRATS DID!!

🚨🚨🚨🚨

The Department of Education helps kids get access to a quality public education. Gutting the department would jeopardize the futures of millions of kids, working families, and the programs they rely on.

We will fight back against this billionaire power grab by DOGE.

We are union. Happy International Women’s Day! | AFL-CIO

On #InternationalWomensDay, America’s unions celebrate and honor the trailblazing women who have fought for workers’ rights and are leading the way in today’s labor movement.

America’s unions are in the streets, in the courtroom, and the halls of government fighting for working people everywhere.

Working people over billionaires. Period.

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.

What happened in the Oval Office on Friday — the obviously planned ambush of Zelensky by Trump and Vance — was something that had never happened in the nearly 250-year history of this country!

Our president sided with the aggressor, the dictator and the invader of Ukraine!

PUTIN FIRST
USA LAST

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.”

I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Medicaid covers nearly 1 in 4 Americans, including children, seniors, pregnant women, and people with disabilities.

It doesn’t stop there. The same budget slashes $230 billion from food assistance, gutting the SNAP program that feeds 41 million Americans.

Do not make any purchases
Do not shop online, or in-store
Do not spend money on:
Fast Food
Gas
Major Retailers
Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non essential spending
Only buy essentials if absolutely necessary
(Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies)

We ARE NOT powerless and this is a really good way to collectively to not only grow our power but to show it to this new administration as we kick them where it hurts the most. PLEASE make a commitment to participate! #DemocracyMatters

I am NOT going to stop posting about the Feb 28, 2025 ECONOMIC BLACKOUT!! Trump, Elon, and all their various minions are trying to make us all feel powerless as they rip apart programs, jobs, and initiatives that so many Americans are dependent on for their sheer survival.

This is how we make history.
February 28th
The 24 Hour Economic Black Out Begins.

If you must spend, ONLY support small, local businesses.
~ Corporations and banks only care about their bottom line.
~ If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message.
~ If they don't listen (they wont) we make the next blackout longer (We will)
This is our first action.

Do not make any purchases
Do not shop online, or in-store
Do not spend money on:
Fast Food
Gas
Major Retailers
Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non essential spending
Only buy essentials if absolutely necessary
(Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies)

We need to protect our public schools for the sake of our most vulnerable children. #trumpisnotmypresident

NO CUTS to Medicaid! Cutting Medicaid—a state and federal partnership that funds health care for more than 80 million Americans, including older adults, children, pregnant people, and disabled people—would run counter to ...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

The gap between CEO pay and worker pay increases as union membership decreases. It couldn’t be clearer that unions are the counter to anti-worker, greedy corporations. 

It’s time for workers to get their fair share of the profits that THEY create.

But hey Trump won't go hungry or broke so why should he care!!

And it'll be free rein on price gouging. Yesterday a dozen eggs in a major grocery store was $7.59, last week they were $4.99 in the same store. I headed to a different major grocery store and their prices had increased a little so I was at least able to get 18 eggs for $7.49!
