Pierre Damas Bel was an honor student & part of his college's ROTC program. He was also a TPS recipient. After Trump's attacks on TPS, he was forced to wear an ankle monitor that isolated and humiliated him. Pierre died in an apparent suicide. He was 20.

MIT economist Daron Acemoglu just backed a Senate bill making AI companies pay into a federal fund for displaced workers. He warns, ”AI is on track to displace workers, not complement them.” If AI reshapes work, it needs to work for all of us, not just a handful of elites.

One was a public event, and they didn’t appear on stage at the same time. The other was a publicly scheduled meeting with a press conference immediately after. But that other one was a private meeting which the public only found out about because the NYTimes reported it took place.

I’m just going to sit here and clock all the outrage…

Sanders can appear at an event with Bannon. Mamdani invites Trump to Gracie Mansion. But Jeffries meets with Kushner and folks lose their minds?!

Guess he forgot to ask permission. 🤷🏾‍♂️

This U.S. family was surrounded by Border Patrol agents after accidentally hitting a patrol car. Once free and proven innocent in court, they had the front door of their home blown off its hinges in retaliation. Border Patrol doesn't just target immigrants, it torments American citizens too.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

Workers now produce roughly 40% more per hour than they did in the late 1990s. But we're not working shorter weeks, retiring earlier and living more comfortably asa result. Instead people are struggling to pay for the heating, food and bills at the same time. We're being robbed blind.

The reason so many people are upset about this objectively true statement is because he is calling out what Lacan deems the “Big Other”: exposing or confronting the hidden social rules, language systems, and structures of authority that secretly shape what we think, desire, and believe.

"Skilled" vs "unskilled" work is a lie. It doesn't matter what the job is, it shouldn't be possible to spend most of your waking hours working and still not make enough money to live.

Black text on white page that reads:

In 1882, 10,000 workers marched up Broadway in the first-ever Labor Day parade. Led by democratic socialists and organized by New York’s unions, they rallied the movement that went on to win us weekends, safety standards, overtime pay, a minimum wage, and social security.

None of those victories were guaranteed. And none are permanent.

We created the first-in-the-nation Office of Worker Power to put the full weight of City Hall behind the people who keep New York running. On Labor Day, we honor the workers who came before us by fighting for the workers who come next.

Happy Labor Day, New York. The future of worker power is ours to build. Learn more at nyc.gov/workerpower.

Dem leaders welcome all these diet MAGA dems in the caucus with open arms, and even advocate for them over DSA candidates, then they're shocked when they vote for actual MAGA bills. For the 800th time, Dem leadership needs to resign and make room for actual fighters.
