It took five years. Moral: Never give up.
BREAKING: We won!
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.

100% correct. Don't be fooled by their lame theater.
The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

Some needed clarity: I despise and look down on MAGAs for cause. They hate me, and all manner of other people, just for existing. Don't feel bad about hating evil people.

This is a great example of how self-defeating white supremacy is. The owners of the Spokane Country Club lost it all in a lawsuit. Women members sued them for charging women the same dues as men, but with way fewer benefits. The men owners fought tooth & nail, lost the suit, & were bankrupted...

Yep.
Mamdani's line that billionaires spent more to oppose his candidacy than he proposed to tax them really says it all.
Like a company that shuts down a profitable location as soon as it unionizes. The principle of maintaining control is more important.

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.
Why the delay from Mike Johnson?
Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The United States was the leading destination for top scientists from all over the world.
That is ending. Politicians ended it. It will cripple our future competitiveness.
And it’s such a bitter tragedy. Almost no Americans, Conservative or Liberal, grasp what is now being stolen from them.
