Poster inviting people to a rally in New York City on March 4, 2025. The poster is white with text in red and blue of the American flag. The text on the left side says: MARCH 4 TRUTH. WE THE PEOPLE *NOT* THE BILLIONAIRES is surrounded by stars. TRUTH TUESDAYS. PEACEFUL PROTEST. The date, time and location is in a blue box on the top left: MARCH 4th, 12-1PM, FOX HQ. 1211 6th Avenue, New York, NY Logos of the organizations are on the bottom right: RISE AND RESIST is a grey square and 50501 is a blue circle. Join Truth Tuesdays & Rise and Resist, 50501, and other activists for a peaceful protest at Fox HQ to stand up for the truth, the Constitution, and the voice of the MANY, not the wealthy elite. Billionaires like Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch have used their unchecked influence to spread misinformation and speed our country toward an undemocratic, oligarchic state of affairs. But we the people do NOT consent to have our democracy damaged by lies. We do not consent to be governed by an unelected billionaire. And we will not be silent while a self-proclaimed king declares himself above the law. 50501: The People’s Movement has called for nationwide protests on March 4th. On this day, the anniversary of the Constitution taking effect in NYC 135 years ago and the day of Trump’s State of the Union address, we will stand together to resist the billionaire coup and protect the rights of all. This is a non-violent and peaceful demonstration. Come with a sign and a voice to raise (acoustic noisemakers only, please). We hope you can join us on March 4th

new statement from Gov. Kathy Hochul on Eric Adams:

"the alleged conduct at City Hall that has been reported over the past two weeks is troubling and cannot be ignored. Tomorrow, I have asked key leaders to meet me at my Manhattan office for a conversation about the path forward"

OSHA has repeatedly fined Elon Musk’s companies for serious safety violations. Granting him and his associates access to the agency’s files is an obvious conflict of interest, and would likely discourage workers from filing future complaints.
What Will DOGE’s Moves on Government Agencies Mean for OSHA?
Unions took to the streets—and the courts—to try to keep Elon Musk’s initiative out of the Labor Department.
