  1. Will you help protect Union workers and career Civil Servants under threat as Des Moines Airport Authority opts in to Trump’s Gold+ privatization scheme?

    This leaves TSA unemployed, benefits gone, hoping for an offer of lower wages with a private company who will prioritize profits over national security.

    Please email Brian Mulcahy, CEO of Des Moines Airport Authority [email protected] and tell him privatization is bad for America.

    Privatizing TSA weakens security, puts classified data in private hands, prioritizes profit over safety, and destroys a skilled Federal workforce we need.

    PLEASE SHARE to save union jobs and families.

  2. Yesterday, my husband and his colleagues in the Federal Civil Service were laid off for a new Trump program privatizing TSA - a return to the days before 9/11 while Trump bombs the Middle East.

    They held the line, working for America without pay for months. They kept us safe while eating from food banks and having their union gutted by Kristi Noem. They wrote weekly emails to Elon Musk and Big Balls justifying their jobs. Nobody got a $10k bonus - they just got fired.

    Trump, MAGA, and Russell Vought’s Project 2025 have terrorized, demoralized, and bankrupted Civil Servants who made America work for everyday people. Trump is dismantling the framework of our country so he can cut taxes for billionaires, fund a reckless and useless war, and put money in his pocket. He couldn’t care less about working people.

    Privatizing TSA does more than throw dedicated and trained patriots on the street. It jeopardizes national security by emphasizing profits over security, dividing loyalties, and creating a vulnerable patchwork of aviation safety. Trump doesn’t care. The private companies taking over are probably paying kickbacks to him and his children.

    Trump and MAGA devastated working Americans whether they’re farmers, teachers, nurses, small business owners, or Civil Servants. I knew this would happen - it’s all in the fascist manifesto Project 2025. Nobody around me listened until it was too late.

    Good luck, America. My husband and me were supposed to be looking ahead to retirement. Now we’re scrambling for survival. Trump and MAGA may not bury us, but they’re trying.

  4. Trump Expands At-Will Employment to Thousands of Federal Workers

    In a move that affects nearly 8,000 federal workers, President Trump has signed an order converting their positions to at-will jobs, stripping them of civil-service protections and placing them in a new category called Schedule Policy/Career. This change allows for easier removal of employees, and marks a significant…

  9. @milo The TSA are underpaid, often maligned, and the frontline civil servants protecting us from terrorism. TSA officers like my husband and his colleagues ought to get paid. This shouldn’t be a question. Hardworking Americans are watching their lives go down the drain because the GOP refuses common sense funding bills. Meanwhile, the ICE Gestapo get paid and rampage on.

  18. The Trump-era Department of Government Efficiency's radical budget cuts have stalled, with Congress passing only $9 billion—far short of the envisioned massive $2 trillion trims. Trump’s focus shifted away, and recent signals suggest no additional large-scale cuts are likely, especially with narrow GOP control and bipartisan resistance. Trump himself criticized the chaotic downsizing, calling for a more measured approach. Rep. Tim Burchett, tasked to push further cuts, admits he’s fighting an uphill battle and questions whether his party fully supports such drastic reductions. This saga reminds us of the scam perpetrated on Trump supporters and the American people.

  20. I’m a Minneapolis Postal Worker. This Is What I Saw.

    Bianca Sonnenberg’s uniform has become her security blanket. Before ICE arrived in Minneapolis, she would change when she finished her route. Recently, she’s hoped her identity as a US Postal Service worker would protect her from getting targeted by ICE operations. She’s Native American, and over the last few months, she’s heard about ICE detaining […]

  25. The overhaul, released by the Office of Personnel Management [#OPM], fulfills a campaign promise for #Trump to strip #JobProtections from #FederalWorkers that his team deems to be "influencing" #government policy. It is the biggest change to the rules governing the #CivilService in more than a century. Trump called the overhaul "#ScheduleF" during his first administration.

    The “checks” were FAKE. The bonus is a LIE - virtually no TSA officers who worked without pay with perfect attendance - and ate from food banks - are getting the $10k. It’s a LIE that recipients are recommended by local leaders. Local leaders have NO information, and there’s NO criteria used.

  30. Mei has 20 days from the day the govt reopens to contest her dismissal. She plans to appear alongside other unionized federal workers…at a news conference Friday in Boston to protest #USDA’s decision.
    
“This is about sounding the alarm to the public that this administration will…trot over the services we provide & the rights that we have as #FederalWorkers & as Americans,” said Chris Dols, co-exec dir of the Federal Unionists Network, who is helping organize Mei’s response.

  31. The Democrats’ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering

    The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties — especially the Democrats — turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went without pay, vital services were halted, and millions of Americans were left hanging in uncertainty. All for what? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. When the dust […]

  32. The Left’s Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism

    The current government shutdown has exposed something deeply disturbing about the state of so-called progressivism in America. As the federal government teeters on the brink of chaos, there are voices, voices that claim to be on the left, calling for the shutdown to continue. They present it as some kind of moral or political strategy, a way to "punish" the administration or make a political statement. But what they fail—or refuse—to acknowledge is the human cost of this so-called […]

    Look at the lines of Military families having to stand in line to receive food. Federal workers and the military aren’t getting paid because of the MAGA shutdown which happened because Republicans are afraid the Epstein files will get released.

  34. Amid Government Shutdown, Republicans Are Showing Us What Autocracy Looks Like

    There’s a popular and recurring chant that echoed throughout the recent No Kings protests several weeks ago: “This is what democracy looks like.” But on Capitol Hill over the past four weeks, during a protracted government shutdown, Republicans have been displaying the opposite. The quiet, moribund center of American government looks anything but like a democracy.

    “Highly polished, Statuary marble!” Trump declared on social media as he posted images of his new Lincoln bathroom, even as some households planned on handing out canned soup in lieu of candy.
