BREAKING: A federal judge blocks Trump from stripping hundreds of thousands of federal workers of their union rights.
The White House tried to end collective bargaining for workers at numerous agencies by invoking national security.
A U.S. District Judge just shot them down.

They Criticized Musk on X. Then Their Reach Collapsed.
Three users who disagreed with the site’s owner saw views for their posts plummet.

Donald Trump, ignoramus and bullshit king.
And he gets away with the ignorance and the bullshit because most reporters never call him out on it, let alone ask the obvious follow up questions. (Excuse me Mr President, who is the ‘they’ who have been fighting for 1000 years?’)

Trump: I’m close to India and Pakistan…They have had that fight for a thousand years in Kashmir. Kashmir has been going on for a thousand years, probably longer than that…
(Trump is a F moron. The Kashmir conflict started in 1947, not a thousand years ago.)

Zeteo commissioned this poll from Data for Progress and it is pretty clear that the Democratic base prefers the progressive/leftist position on every issue from Israel-Palestine to healthcare to even immigration.

The TikTok algorithm is so specific lol. I'm not caught up on lower decks but I'm mainly a DS9 fan (haven't finished any of the others yet). It immediately knew I needed to know that (alt) Garak/Bashir is canon now. Usually set to Sailor Song.

We found some crazy stats for this video but the one that still sits on my chest is that the NIH estimates 68k Americans a year die from lack of health insurance coverage. That’s enough corpses (care of our for profit system) to fill Flagstaff Arizona every year.
The public's reaction to Luigi Mangione’s case is evidence of how our healthcare system is failing us.

This fascinating study would explain why people “vote against their own economic interests”.
One thing I keep hearing is that ppl who voted R in this (and other recent) US election(s) will come to regret it when their SS, medicare, other state assistance goes away.

New paper published @ajpseditor.bsky.social
Showing that reduced access to public services fuelled far right support in 🇮🇹
Existing work on far right highlights globalization & migration grievances, what about people’s experiences with the state?
We use 🇮🇹 reform to find out

By August 2024, 40,000 self-proclaimed vigilante vote-fraud hunters had already challenged the rights of 852,381 voters — with a target of 2 million before the election. Did the voters decide the 2024 election, or voter suppression? Watch our movie and decide for yourself. youtu.be/P_XdtAQXnGE
