Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Interesting "if you are poor we are cutting off your food, if you're not we're gonna fuck up your holiday travel" strategy
This administration is pursuing a policy of starving American kids with more vigor than almost anything else they have done this year
NEW: The Trump admin told states it must immediately "undo" the work to provide full food stamp benefits, or face penalties. The feds sent this in a late-night memo, only adding to the chaos and confusion around SNAP. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/09/b...

“When Donald Trump sends troops here, it won’t be Trump vs. Mamdani. It’ll be Trump vs. New York City.”

Federal agents in Chicago are aggressive everywhere but they elevate this in the SW Side. They don’t just snatch people and leave. They linger longer, march down streets with guns, interrupt traffic flows. The attacks feel concerted to instill as much fear & display power over immigrant mhoods.
