Free idea: instead of building an insanely overpriced ballroom use the money they crowdsourced to feed the kids they took SNAP food assistance from.

Like when you have to delete your photos with your ex after the breakup. Seems like nobody is on Elon’s side anymore. politico.com/news/2025/07/3…

DOGE forced hundreds of thousands of workers to make a choice: resign, or wait to be fired (and maybe rehired, and maybe fired again).  They’re upending lives, straining our essential services, and trying to break things to justify even more cuts. nytimes.com/2025/07/31/us/…

In their efforts to “cut waste, fraud and abuse,” DOGE spent $21.7 BILLION DOLLARS. If they’re looking to cut wasteful spending, they should start with DOGE itself. thedailybeast.com/elon-musks-dog…

Trump was in Scotland this past weekend to open his new private golf course—and taxpayers footed the $10 million bill. The Trump family continues to profit off of the presidency. This is the definition of government-funded waste, fraud and abuse. rollingstone.com/politics/polit…

Free advice to those in positions of power: people who work for a living don’t like it - or you - when you cut their jobs or gut their essential services like Medicaid and SNAP food assistance.

RFK Jr. fired everyone on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, the board that provides recommendations on vaccines, and replaced them with vaccine skeptics. How is this supposed to make working people feel safe on the job? thehill.com/homenews/54322…

Everyone could have seen this coming. The National Weather Service is an essential service that keeps people safe and gives us vital information when severe weather hits. Firing hundreds of its workers put millions at risk. cnn.com/2025/08/05/wea…

AI should be used to make workers’ lives better… not to gut actual, meaningful ways to keep people safe. This is why we need real guardrails on AI to protect working people’s jobs and our health. thedailybeast.com/doge-goons-use…

Firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner because the monthly jobs report numbers weren’t good does nothing to change the fact that the Trump admin’s policies are costing working people across the country their jobs.

DOGE has upended the lives of hundreds of thousands of federal workers. “It’s been overwhelmingly stressful. I already have anxiety from being a veteran so adding this to my life, I mean, I wake up having panic attacks.... It’s affecting my entire life. federalnewsnetwork.com/federal-report…

The big, ugly bill’s cuts to Medicaid are going to hurt public schools, especially special education programs. We should be funding our public schools so they can strengthen their essential services, not be forced to gut them.washingtonpost.com/education/2025…

Not sure that gutting vaccine research and putting workers at risk during the next pandemic is “Making America Healthy Again.” Seriously, does this help anyone?

In a brazenly anti-worker and anti-veteran act, VA Secretary Doug Collins Doug Collins cancelled hundreds of thousands of VA workers’ union contracts, a third of whom are veterans themselves. Time again, the Trump admin proves they don’t care about people who work for a living.

Trump is honoring Purple Heart recipients at the White House the day after his VA secretary gutted his workers’ collective bargaining rights, a third of which are veterans. Hell of a way to honor our nation’s heroes—by ripping up their union contract and first amendment rights.

As the Trump admin continues their relentless union-busting against federal workers, we have the bill AND the support to fight back. Tell your rep to sign the discharge petition and pass the Protect America’s Workforce Act! act.aflcio.org/call_campaigns…

As it turns out, nurses and doctors may not want to work in a hospital where they could be attacked by the White House, be in constant fear of losing their jobs or have their union rights taken away. Looking at you, VA Secretary Doug Collins. propublica.org/article/vetera…

To everyone who cares about the fundamental freedom of all workers, now is the time to get even louder. Call Congress NOW and tell them to sign the discharge petition for the Protect America’s Workforce Act to stop the Trump admin’s union-busting! act.aflcio.org/call_campaigns…

It does not “Make America Healthy Again” to cut off research for potentially life-saving vaccines. It makes workers less safe on the job and less prepared for the next public health crisis, which is bad for everyone.
