Unions not only defend our freedoms in the workplace, but they have also been on the frontlines responding to this regime's attacks on our democracy.

Is it any wonder why Trump and many of the corporations bowing down to him are so staunchly anti-union?

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

Yes!
An apology is insufficient. Everyone email [email protected] and tell them Kilmeade must be fired immediately. #GoodTrouble

Fox’s Brian Kilmeade apologizes for saying “just kill them” with “involuntary lethal injection” re: mentally ill homeless people

I’m sorry, but Brian Kilmeade can still go fuck himself.
September 14, 2025 at 9:51 PM
If he truly said this, then Kilmeade needs to be immediately FIRED and blackballed from ever appearing again in front of a camera or microphone. Utterly disgusting and despicable. Even for Fox “News”.
Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

Mad props to the anonymous CDC-er that designed and printed these signs for the goodbye celebration of the CDC leaders we lost yesterday -- the 3Ds (Demetre, Deb, Dan). LEGENDARY.

At some point in the not too distant future the conventional wisdom will be that this was a period where the US focused on dumb shit while China took the lead in multiple domains
I vaguely remember tweeting something like the country that effectively captures this free energy source at scale will rule the 21st century. whelp.

Did you know that the most heat pumps per capita are installed in the coldest countries in Europe?

In Sweden, Finland and Norway there are now more than 40 heat pumps per 100 households, more than in any other country in the world.

The Republican Congress is going to try to rewrite the history of RFK Jr.’s confirmation as HHS Secretary.

“We didn’t know”
“Nobody told us”
“He promised he wouldn’t…”

This thread will be about the warnings from thousands of scientists and HCW who loudly and publicly opposed his confirmation.
