that's no adequate evidence of pedophelia. Summers was misogynistic, creepy, unfaithful, violated trust of his mentee. Bad enough.

not sure where you get 'pedo' from
Silly. You need ID (not “voter ID”) to get on a plane. Not “proof of citizenship,” which is what the SAVE America Act requires.
The public sector saw a 0.7 percentage-point increase in union density in 2025, rising from 35.7% to 36.4%. This growth reflected an increase of 236,000 unionized workers. The most notable development in public-sector unionization in 2025 occurred among federal government workers. Despite—and likely because of—the Trump administration’s aggressive attacks on federal employees and their unions, federal workers increasingly turned to collective representation. Union density among federal workers rose from 29.9% to 31.1%, the largest single-year increase since 2011. This increase represented a gain of 40,000 unionized workers—notable given that federal government employment fell as the Trump administration slashed federal jobs. Unionization among state and local government workers also rose—from 37.1% to 37.6%, reflecting an increase of 196,000 unionized workers. Private-sector union coverage increased by 227,000 in 2025, pushing the unionization rate up from 6.7% to 6.8%. Within the private sector, there were particularly large gains in health care and social assistance, retail trade, and educational services. In contrast, the traditionally blue-collar industries of mining, manufacturing, and transportation and utilities saw declines. Construction was one heavily blue-collar sector to buck this trend, posting substantial gains in union coverage.
Here's some good news - the number of workers represented by a union rose by almost half a million last year. www.epi.org/publication/...

Breaking this down by year, job growth in 2024 was revised down by more than a quarter (-553k jobs), and 2025 was revised down by close to 70% (-403k jobs). 2025 was the weakest year for job growth since the pandemic, and before that since the Great Recession.
I really want people to think about this. After all the insane lawsuits, all the threats, all the bullshit weve seen from this admin and the targets who kneeled in fear, an average Joe called the president a Pedophile protector to his face and didn't get touched. That's the Power of a union.
the Abundance crowd is not just one tendency, imho.
NOW THAT’S UNION

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun.
Any second now, I'm sure.
He was a white guy, if that helps?
Hello? NRA?
Good! More of this
so strange/funny that a general strike is being headlined by 'businesses protest'. the article actually discusses unions and workers

Sorry. Has someone said this?
1) Trump can’t impose tariff unilaterally
2) Trump has no $$ to buy Greenland
3) Trump has no authority to leave NATO
I need to apologize for something I did. The @bostonherald.com is right, there is no place for profanities in politics.
the only good thing about this part of the horrible shooting story is that it may turn out to be a gut shot for the carcass of @cbsnews.com and that's great. and unlike the ICE goon CBS has real internal bleeding.
