Here's a sad statistic: Stevie Ray Vaughan was on the planet for 13,092 days. As of today, it's been exactly 13,092 days since he died. Tomorrow, he will have been gone longer than he was here. Today would have been his 71st birthday. Did you ever see him live?

RIP Stevie Ray!

Yom Kippur is a day of reflection, of forgiveness, of restoration. This year, may we all pray for a better, kinder, more peaceful future.

Wishing all who observe across the five boroughs and the world a meaningful, easy fast. G’mar chatimah tovah.

AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

I happened to listen to Pet Sounds all the way through the week before last on a whim. It sounds stupid to say but if you haven’t listened before you should. Incredible song writing and studio work in total concert #RIPBrianWilson

New data finds Americans are more likely to support labor unions over Big Business than at any time in the past 60 years.

We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power. 

If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.

Just heard a young kid in passing ask her parent “which team do you support? Shelbourne, united or bohs?” And if that doesn’t show how far Irish football has come on in recent years nothing will. #GreatestLeagueInTheWorld
