  33. So far, 9 agencies have terminated #union contracts that covered >445k #FederalWorkers from the #EPA, US #CoastGuard, #FEMA, #GSA, the Departments of #HHS, #Agriculture & #VeteransAffairs, & parts of #ICE & #Citizenship & #Immigration Services.

    “This is literally the largest act of union busting in American history,” said Mike Podhorzer, a former political director of the #AFLCIO. “There’s not another time when that many people lost their union.”

    Tens of thousands of people expected to hit the streets for a protest over Trump, billionaires

    by Sarah D. Wire, September 1, 2025

    "Labor unions and community activists are gearing up for mass protests on Labor Day hoping to remind Americans of the power of the #WorkingClass at a time when billionaires are playing an outside role in national politics.

    "More than a thousand '#WorkersOverBillionaires' events are planned nationwide in big and small cities on Labor Day and the surrounding days. in an effort to keep the momentum going from other mass demonstrations and keep pressure not only on President #DonaldTrump, but also the billionaires who support or benefit from his administration.

    " 'It’s important to show that there is opposition to the Trump-billionaire agenda in every community big and small, it’s not just cities that are united against what’s happening… it’s all towns, it’s small towns that voted overwhelmingly for Trump,' Saqib Bhatti, executive director of Action Center on Race and the Economy, told USA TODAY. 'It’s very important to show the opposition is there in all these places.'

    "On Aug. 28 the White House did not respond to a request for comment on the protests. Instead, it provided a quote from Vice President JD Vance about Democrats not voting for the GOP tax and spending bill and a quote from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's press briefing about Labor Day.

    " 'President Trump believes that American workers are the heart and soul of our economy and our national identity, which is why he’s championed an agenda that puts them first always,' she said. [BULLSHIT!]

    "The events, which are locally organized and tailored to local concerns, are led by labor organizations, including the #AFLCIO, national #advocacy groups such as #MayDayStrong, #PublicCitizen and #Indivisible and dozens on local advocacy groups. Some began late last week, others will continue throughout the first week of September."

  35. AFL-CIO: 'Alarming escalation' by #Trump

    The #AFLCIO, the US's biggest #labor federation, criticized Trump’s attempted firing of #LisaCook, calling it "an alarming escalation of his attack on #independent federal agencies that working people’s #jobs & livelihoods depend on" in a statement on Tuesday.

    The group represents dozens of labor #unions & over 15 million people.

  36. Critics say the proposals would put #workers at greater risk of harm, with #women & members of #minority groups bearing a disproportionate impact.

    “People are at very great risk of dying on the job already,” Rebecca Reindel, the #AFLCIO #union’s occupational #safety & #health director, said. “This is something that is only going to make the problem worse.”

  37. #Protest in #FortWorth #dfw today, #NoKings. According to organizers the #FBI closed airspace around the event, which might explain why the helicopter was hanging pretty far back. There *was* a quadcopter hanging out closer to the event though. Probably had about a thousand people milling around, give or take a couple hundred.

    Saw reps from #CPUSA, #RCA, and #PSL #PartyForSocialismAndLiberation too, as well as #AFLCIO. #socialism #communism #marxism.
