This flew under the radar, but Trump revoked a minimum wage hike for companies that contract with the government.
An estimated 390,000 workers will now see significant pay cuts.
It's not surprising that Trump's populism is fake, but it's hardly ever been more clear.

I’ve tried calling several times this morning - the lines are so flooded, it’s not even letting me connect to the switchboard! Eventually we’ll get through, let’s keep up the pressure 💪
KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.
☎️: (202) 224-3121
Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.
The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.
Call retiring Senators too!

Chuck Schumer is 74 years old. Nancy Pelosi is 84.
The median age of the US Senate is 64 years old.
US retirement age is 67, US life expectancy is 79.
Imagine leaders who literally, viscerally do not give a single shit about what happens in 10 years because they won't live that long.

Why is Trump waging a war on the Department of Education?
Because he knows that his biggest enemies are educators and younger generations of learners who are unafraid to speak truth to power.
Attacks on education are central to the fascist playbook.
