And let’s be clear, this is a bipartisan mess. Dems’ emboldening of Netanyahu in Gaza brought us here. All the Dems taking money from AIPAC are just as culpable as Trump. I’m looking at you, @congressmanraja.bsky.social

Trump & AIPAC have dragged us into another war that American people don’t want, but Israel desperately does.

This war will upend the lives of millions in Iran and around the region, while lining the pockets of big oil, big tech, and the military contractors.

Extreme cold didn’t stop the shutdown on Friday as some 100 faith leaders were arrested, residents stayed out of work, & an estimated 50,000+ marched through downtown Minneapolis.

A Strategy to Stop the Flow of Our Money to Billionaires The trillions of dollars in our retirement savings are enriching the ultra wealthy while they ravage our communities. A mass movement led by workers and pensioners can turn off the tap.

"Retaking control of our collective financial investment is an essential part of the fight against fascism and the destruction of our communities."

Nationwide Labor Day protests denounce billionaires in Trump’s orbit The “Workers over Billionaires” event, backed by AFL-CIO and others, focused on issues like Medicaid and Social Security cuts.

This year, Labor Day is more than a barbecue.

ACRE ED @saqibbhatti.bsky.social spoke with @usatoday.com about #WorkersOverBillionaires and why "it’s going to take a lot of mass protests all across the country to be able to really really turn back the tide of authoritarianism."

Diversity at the Fed took one step forward. Now Trump is taking it two steps back | CNN Business Throughout the Federal Reserve’s 111-year history, its top policymakers have mostly been white men. Now some recent progress diversifying the ranks of the world’s most powerful bank is being undone.

"When we were making the case for Lisa Cook’s nomination, we found that only two of 417 Federal Reserve staff positions at the time were Black; 318 of them were White. That’s a really big problem."

ACRE ED @saqibbhatti.bsky.social shares his thoughts on the Fed after the firing of Lisa Cook.

Shame on Trump for trying to illegally fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook! It’s the latest blitz on the integrity of the Federal Reserve system—of which CFPB is the newest member.

We stand in solidarity w/ Fed Gov Cook & all public servants working to keep our financial system safe for everyday people. ❤️

The same party that spent all last year making protecting democracy their main message is very quick to throw democracy out the window when voters choose Muslims, anti-Zionists, democratic socialists, or all of the above.

Really proud to put this out today. State & local governments and pension funds need to stop investing in Israel's genocide, not just because it's immoral (although that alone is reason enough), but also because Israel's genocide bonds are a bad investment acrecampaigns.org/research_pos...

You can draw direct lines from one to the next:

- America’s war on Iraq
- Israel’s genocide in #Gaza
- India’s attacks on #Pakistan

All are cases of imperialist powers taking advantage of Islamophobia to launch offensive attacks using the fig leaf of self-defense as pretext.
