🚨 On May 1, 2025, in cities across the US, we will gather in solidarity—honoring the legacy of workers who organized for the 8-hour day. Today, we face a new threat. A billionaire-backed minority is quietly reshaping our democracy. BUT a peaceful People’s Movement is growing. 👉 www.FiftyFifty.one

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He's now planning to end the free IRS Direct File program. Apple donated $1M. Trump exempted most of Apple’s imports from tariffs. Coinbase donated $1M. Trump’s SEC dropped a major lawsuit against them. See how this works?

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about strikes in Yemen to a second unclassified Signal group chat that included his wife and brother, people familiar with the matter said. nyti.ms/4jBQ1wV

Science doesn’t improve by cutting Black, Hispanic, and women experts. But that’s exactly what happened—38 out of 43 removed from NIH boards were just that. And they wonder why trust in institutions is fading.

There ya go

It's Tax Day! Tax Day means...it's time for everyone to pay their fair share! Let's pass Sen. Murray and Rep. Alzate's bill to tax the richest 1%, and let's pass my "Taylor Swift" mansion tax. We've got massive holes in the budget, and a fair tax code is the first step towards fixing this.

When George says it…we ought to listen up.

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days. It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man. An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/ #MomSky

In the Oval Office, Trump suggested deporting citizens with criminal records. In the court of law, Trump is a rapist with 34 felony convictions.

Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...

I adore this congresswoman

At a CNN town hall moderated by Anderson Cooper, Sen. Bernie Sanders explained why he believes both political parties are influenced by a corrupt campaign finance system.

Every Democrat should back @schiff.senate.gov and demand an investigation. Do what Republicans do: flood cable news, light up social & drop every detail you’ve got. Republicans won’t hold hearings? Fine—hold your own. Do it in red districts. Live stream it and we’ll make it go viral.

Trump announced tariffs last week. Since then: - The market crashed—the worst sell-off since 2020 - The maker of Jeeps & Ram trucks laid off 900 U.S. workers - J.P. Morgan predicts there's a 60% chance of a global recession - Trump’s tariffs could cost the average American household $3,800 a year

Donald Trump started the dumbest trade war in the history of America. His Secretary of Treasury is on Tucker Carlson spinning tales instead of working to contain the fallout. It's time for Republicans to stop bending the knee to Trump and put an end to this.

Working people are sick and tired of billionaires trying to gut their workplace rights and the essential services that they rely on every day. Yesterday, the labor movement came together with workers across the country to say: #HandsOff our unions, our contracts, and our rights!

There should be no billionaires.

Berger six weeks ago: “The equities are with the voters there. I don’t think that they had a way of knowing that that was a deficiency as far as their registration is concerned." Today, two Court of Appeals judges put the onus on the voters to correct clerical errors that weren't their fault. #ncpol

A strong trade union movement improves the standard of living for all people. There is a reason why we are the only major country not to guarantee health care for all or have paid family and medical leave. We must grow the trade union movement in the United States.

Lotta people say the British Office is better than the American Office, but please remember it all started with the Canadian Office. 🇨🇦 #kith

It’s been one week since the news broke about Trump’s team sharing sensitive military information in a group chat. If Pete Hegseth had even a sliver of self-respect, he’d have resigned one week ago. And if Donald Trump were truly a leader, he’d have fired Hegseth one week ago.
