🧵 Let’s be so effing for real right now. The Department of Education saying these jobs are no longer PROFESSIONAL is dumb as hell and insulting as fuck. It takes YEARS of post-graduate training, including passing certifying exams, to earn degrees in these fields. #fdt #momsky

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

This is what Trump and Republicans are doing to CHILDREN and families with their fascist, racist policies. It is grotesque, ANTI-American and totally unacceptable.
We all deserve to live in America without fear. These heinous attacks by Trump’s ICE Gestapo must stop.
We must ERADICATE TRUMPISM.

So many retirees are going to be going through this and now my husband wants to retire we’ll see probably won’t be able to. We’ll just die in our jobs like they want us to.
Retired couple (teacher & union carpenter) on ACA premiums skyrocketing — from $443/month to $2,224/month: “It's like buying another house and trying to pay for two houses at the same time… without the subsidy we honestly don’t know what we’re gonna do.” #TrumpShutdown

Amazon's plan to replace 600,000 workers with AI and robots could save it $10 billion on top of billions more in tax breaks.

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year.
Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses.
No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.

I'm as upset as the next person about the White House being defaced.
But it is also a good time to remind ourselves that every immigrant unjustly hustled into an unmarked SUV by ICE is a family torn apart, a world destroyed.

#AOC is 100% right! This is not normal. What is normal is to negotiate. When one party wants the votes of another party, you negotiate, you come to a compromise and pass a bill.

It’s one social media, Michael. How much could it take to monitor it, 30 people?
NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

The real issue isn’t left vs right.
It’s not white vs black.
It’s not citizen vs immigrant.
It’s not gay vs straight.
The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.
