As Trump attacks unions and occupies our city, we’re called to remember how we got here.

Labor Day would not exist without the workers who fought and died at the Haymarket Massacre and the Pullman Strike in Chicago.

It’s not a coincidence he’s targeting Chicago:

Holy shit. The New York Times used a EUGENICIST, with documented racist posts all over the place, as an anonymous source for a misleading hit piece on Mamdani.

This is, like, Daily Mail levels of journalistic malpractice. I'm genuinely astonished.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

The CDC latest genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 shows the dominant LP.8.1 variant accounts for ~70% of cases.
Good that no other new variant has emerged so far and that the tracking here continues.

Dear Democratic Members of Congress,

Stop telling me about what he's doing. We can all see it.

Start telling me about what you're doing to stop it!

Signed,

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

In 3 days, the number of measles cases in a highly unvaccinated area of Texas has doubled. There are now 48 cases, all of whom are unvaccinated, and 13 of whom have been hospitalized so far, for a hospitalization rate of 27%. This is huge figure in epidemiology. This outbreak will keep spreading.

JUST IN: H5N1 bird flu now confirmed to spread between dairy cows through milk.

Infected milk was found weeks before symptoms, and raw milk killed cats.

If you’re still underestimating this, you’re not paying attention.

Many healthcare providers use the CDC vaccination information sheets to do so. #MedSky
