Former BLS Commissioner: The BLS is not a politicized place at all. I saw no evidence that the staff is doing any anything else except their highly professional job. I'm very familiar with the processes behind this report, and I saw no evidence whatsoever that the numbers were unexpected

An idea:

@meidastouch.com Can you take down the posts with her name and face? She's doing a great job, but she's a private citizen and doesn't look like she wants the personal attention. Considering what some people are capable of these days, it doesn't seem like a good idea for people to post this info.

Republicans are trying to pass the most environmentally destructive bill in US history. It’s so so SO bad. We can stop it. But we need your help.

There are many Alt accounts that are amazing, but some are frauds.

Those with the #AltGov label are verified. Those without are often good too.

But beware-If an account is asking for $$, it is not legit and is using your anger to take your $$.

Example, @altyellonatpark.org

For many veterans, Memorial Day is a time of reflection. It can be a dull ache. It can be a visceral pain. Please bear in mind that for so many veterans & Gold Star families, there is no Happy in Memorial Day.
To our veterans, I can only wish you some moments of peace as we remember your friends.

#AltCitizen number 2: Jane Addams. Lots of people commented on my first post that I should have picked Frances Perkins, who was instrumental in drafting the legislation that created SSA and was the first female cabinet secretary as FDRs Secretary of Labor. I didn’t pick her because DOL did. 1/?

Campaign finance reform would be better than an arbitrary age or term limit.

It’s dangerous to go alone! Take this. Photo from my collection, 1949.

Ovary Roll - Roll for Reproductive Rights The bad eggs in the White House are rolling over our rights, but we say 'Shell no!' to their freedom seeds. Roll with us to show your support for women's rights and health.

Nice roll! Reproductive rights are human rights. I've got a special message for you from ovaryroll.com: We Won't Crack

Democratic state AG's should begin investigations to bring charges for kidnapping and trafficking within their borders. These people could be anyone, ICE or people pretending to be ICE.

I’m tired of @msnbc.com anchors perpetuating the message that Dems aren’t doing the work or that it’s not possible to find what they’re doing.

I think I need to be interviewed but the only way that’s gonna happen is if they are aware of me.

If you think I should be on their shows let them know!

The Democratic state AG's need to start bringing kidnapping/trafficking charges against these people.

@piperformissouri.bsky.social

Keep up the great work.
#altgov is doing their part!!

I'm so relieved! But that we were questioning what their decision would be in the first place is just awful...

Her Life

Frances Perkins, the woman behind the New Deal and our North Star, was born on this date 145 years ago.

“There is always a large horizon…. There is much to be done …. I am not going to be doing it! It is up to you to contribute some small part to a program of human betterment for all time.”

These are the Democrats who voted for the SAVE act which will disenfranchise tens of millions of people, including married women who changed their maiden name:

Jared Golden (Maine),
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.),
Henry Cuellar (Texas)
Ed Case (Hawaii).

Dear @schiff.senate.gov, I’m a constituent. Please vote NO on the SAVE Act. This bill will disenfranchise 70M women & 20M people with no passport or birth certificate. We are fighting for our very lives now – our jobs, our healthcare, our freedoms. Don't make us fight for our votes.

In case you're wondering...

it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans.

And nobody has been fired...

Don't stop talking about SignalGate

And when the tariffs are lifted and the markets rebound, they may hire some back. But for less pay and/or benefits. That's the Oligarch shuffle...
