Happy #InternationalWomensDay! To the women who lift us up and keep the world spinning, thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for us. 💛

“[One] reason why [the Democrats] focus so much on messaging over and over and over again in our party is because you can change what you say, but not who you are. And ultimately, our party needs to change who it is in order to get to a governing majority.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=hv--...

This #FeatureFriday, we are shining the spotlight on the first Black woman to receive an honorary Academy Award: the late #CicelyTyson! A true trailblazer known for her portrayals of strong Black women, her 7 decade career spanned film, TV and theater. #WomensHistoryMonth

"I don’t think we can underestimate what is actually happening now: these weapons were not being stockpiled by Israel. The weapons that we were sending to Israel were going to be used for a regional conflict with Iran, which would [then consume] the entire region." www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBad...

NEW: The military systems that the U.S. sent to the Iran region in recent weeks ALONE cost us nearly $60 MILLION per day — just a fraction of the cost of this war. That ~$60 million could cover Medicaid for 4 million Americans per day, or SNAP for 9.5 million. From @nationalpriorities.bsky.social:

The Department of Labor was created to protect all working people. Weakening labor enforcement that protect wages and safety on the job because they are union members is a blatant and outrageous attack on *all* workers’ rights.

March is Women’s History Month. Join us in celebrating the history of women and the labor movement by exploring this reading list curated by the AFL-CIO. Women’s history is Labor history – and women workers have always been critical to the fight for justice in the workplace. https://bit.ly/4aTk0Om

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

"The crushing of Iran’s first democratic government ushered in more than two decades of dictatorship under the Shah, who relied heavily on US aid and arms. The anti-American backlash that toppled the Shah in 1979 [...] helped spread Islamic militancy." www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/ir...

Happy Women's History Month! Join us as we honor the contributions and achievements of women worldwide. From life-changing inventions to crucial representation, we are thankful for the invaluable impact on our lives. #WomensHistoryMonth

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians. We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

"If the labor movement is going to scale organizing in the private sector, it can’t rely on momentum or structure alone. No one method is the best fit for every situation." jacobin.com/2026/02/uaw-...

"Union density in the USA has declined drastically in recent decades from 30+ percent in the 1950s. Despite the decline, public approval of labor unions now ranges between 67 and 71 percent, according to Gallup polls, levels last reached in the early 1960s." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Remembering Rev. Jesse Jackson — civil rights icon, labor advocate and #SagAftraMember since 1968. His lifelong fight for justice advanced workers’ rights, equality and inclusion. We honor his legacy. May he rest in power.

“This is a very bad decision that reeks of the caution and complacency that brought us to this moment.” www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

"The [NLRB] also lost 100 employees due to early retirements and resignation buyouts pushed by [DOGE,] leaving 1,100 workers to oversee collective bargaining and labor practices in the private sector. In comparison, 1,545 employees worked at the agency in 2016." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Just as workers can withhold labor to halt production, tenants can withhold rent to challenge corporate landlords. In Los Angeles, a coalition of tenants and debtors is proving that housing is a site of real economic power.

Fund affordable living and keeping our families together and safe. Don't fund family separation.

We don't need more AI. We don't need more ICE. WE NEED MORE NEWSPAPERS.

Congrats to @uaw.org workers at Volkswagen’s Chattanooga plant! Workers made history in 2024 by voting to form their union with UAW, and they just did it again by securing a historic tentative agreement. Solidarity gets the goods. #OrganizeTheSouth

"In the United States, workers were sucked into elite parties and didn’t have the same motivation to form their own parties." jacobin.com/2026/02/labo...

Portland Maine 01/30/2026

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.

"The only way to rebuild the public’s dwindling trust in the media is to show the public: “This is what we do and why we matter.” "Paywalls capture the already converted. Paywall-free news earns the trust of everyone else."

With growing evidence of atrocities and disapproval among the American public for ICE and its brutal tactics, it’s time for lawmakers in Congress to take a stand and vote NO on any more funding for this immoral organization, writes @ruwithsonali.bsky.social:

Trump’s tariffs aren't being paid by foreign countries—they are a $200B tax hike on the working class. A new study shows Americans are footing 96% of the bill, as corporations protect their profits by passing every cent of the cost down to consumers. time.com/7353475/trum...

#tdih 1972 Shirley Chisholm launched U.S. presidential campaign. An early childhood teacher, Chisholm advocated for minimum family income, public education, & labor rights; against Vietnam War, militarization of border, police brutality, & carceral state; for birth control & abortion access; & more.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)
