Corporations will not exploit working people in NYC.

Uber Eats, Fantuan & HungryPanda broke the law — shortchanging workers while raking in profits.

Today, we secured $5M+ in restitution for 49,000 delivery workers.

Let this be a warning: steal wages, face the consequences.

Okay, I got about four months of @katmabu.bsky.social stream clips I'm dropping. This may take a few days due to Bluesky upload limits. Today's thread is Kat's interview with @amandalitman.bsky.social interview on 9/30/2025.

“Doctors won’t tell you this, but you don’t need medication for a tapeworm—all you need is the natural power of friction,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said as he dropped to the floor, lifted his legs high, and dragged his ass along the White House carpet during a press conference.

Just got done with our hearing. We have another status hearing next month with a trial date (hopefully) in the spring.

It’s more important than ever to stand strong against ICE and with the people protesting it.

We’re fighting these charges and we’re going to win.
I am currently on my way to another hearing regarding my federal charges for protesting ICE.

When I say our leaders must be willing to put everything on the line, I mean it.

And frankly, I see it as the bare minimum in this moment.

To the extent you have any education, consult with any legitimate news sources, know anything about what's happening in the world, you vote Dem. To the extent you don't, you vote Republican.

The fun thing is watching pundits strain mightily to cast this as something *negative about the Dem Party*.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.

Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”
