All layoffs from the last government shutdown have been reversed thanks to the injunction AFSCME won last year, and now any agency seeking to conduct RIFs during a shutdown in 2026 now must first provide 30 days’ public notice.

Imagine knowing your country has 26,000 miles of high speed rail and being forced to listen to McFatty brag about a concrete parking pad?

Well waddya know! You CAN host a fancy White House state-dinner for a large number of people...... .......without needing a fucking ballroom.

Where the f^ck is all this money? The U.S. has collected $13 billion from Venezuelan oil sales since January 2026 but only $300 million has been publicly accounted for. 🤬

The law is clear! Federal law prohibits armed troops at polling places, interference, and using government power to undermine our elections. We will not be intimidated. Know your rights! Make a plan. We must protect the right to vote. 🗳️

Thanks to Trump and the GOP, Diesel is at$6.50 a gallon. And regular gas is now up 70% since Trump's war began--from $3.20 to $4.49. Has your wages gone up 70% to cover that? Nope. But you know who is richer? Trump's Big Oil oligarchs who funded his campaign. It's the Golden Age for them!

President Trump wants to soften one of the strongest legal protections American workers have: the right to hold an employer accountable when retirement savings are mishandled. propublica.org/article/401k-…

BREAKING: Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry has declared a state of emergency in Louisiana as diesel prices rise to record levels during peak harvest season. Landry issued an executive order temporarily allowing dyed diesel, typically reserved for off-road vehicles, to be used in certain highway vehicles.

BREAKING: Bill Clinton slams Trump for attacking the free press — says that there were "lots of times" when he would have loved to ban reporters because he was "pissed off" but he's glad he didn't try it. Nobody criticizes a President better than another President... “I got news for the people who work in the White House today. There were lots of times when I wanted to ban the White House press corps,” Clinton said at the Clinton Global Initiative 2026 summit. “And there’s a reason we have a Constitution. Because none of us are immune from being pissed off.” "But I’m glad I never did, and I’m glad I couldn’t. And these people shouldn’t. The law should be what it is,” he added. Trump recently tried to ban CNN, POLITICO, and MS NOW from the White House for allegedly spreading "fake news," which really just means news that Trump dislikes. The outlets quickly sued over the blatant violation of the First Amendment, and the judge forced Trump to restore the reporters' access because the administration violated due process. But even though he failed, the fact that Trump would even attempt something like this should infuriate every patriotic American. This man has zero respect for our Constitution and would gleefully strip away our rights if he could get away with it. Don't you think Biden would have loved to ban the media when they were attacking his son Hunter over invented crimes? Or that Clinton would have loved to do it at the height of the Monica Lewinsky scandal? Or Obama during any of the endless faux outrage news like the now-infamous tan suit incident? None of them tried it because, despite whatever flaws they may have had, they fundamentally believe in this country and in the First Amendment. Trump does not. Please ❤️ and share if you think that Trump is anti-American!

Early voting has already started in some parts of the country. Workers are ready to fight for an economy, a government and a country for the people, not the billionaires. Join us as we take our country back! betterinaunion.org/vote

"Adela" says, "Here's my work table where I prepare raspberry boxes. I keep my boxes and new baskets ready for when I finish filling the raspberry containers. Then I prepare the baskets and place them in the boxes. Each box holds 6-18 baskets depending on the order." #WeFeedYou

Trump and his friends at the state dinner for China. A government of, by and for the billionaire class.

DoorDash spent $1.4 million trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming NYC mayor. Mamdani just made them pay $131.5 million in wage theft settlements to 264,000 delivery workers. This is why they fear working class solidarity. It comes with accountability.

"Workers at an AutoZone in White Plains, New York, are seeking to become the first store at the US’s largest auto parts retailer to win a union election, set to begin 25 September, despite a heavy-handed union opposition campaign from the company." ow.ly/u28N50ZP8LW
