"We found that candidates who come out of the union movement are exactly what many people in the country desperately crave: politicians who sound like them, who advocate for working people, and who provide solutions that actually work to fix our broken system."
I feel like if Pun was alive he would be a surprise tonight
Jeff Bezos gave $75 million to support Melania Trump's vanity film, but he doesn't have the money for the hundreds of journalists he laid off at The Post today.
Democracy dies with Bezos – unless we fight back. Here's how you can help:

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

We stand in solidarity with @postguild.bsky.social. Jeff Bezos, do better. #SaveThePost
A large number of foreign correspondents working for @washingtonpost.com, including those covering the war in #Ukraine, have been laid off. We stand in solidarity with the affected employees & join @newsguild.org in condemning Jeff Bezos' leadership & vision as incompatible with The Post's mission.
#SaveThePost
Support @newsguild.org workers at The Post by taking action with the #SaveThePost Toolkit and share it with others and donate to the GoFundMe for laid off workers at The Post. www.gofundme.com/f/standing-t...
The NUJ stands in solidarity with all workers impacted by the appalling, cataclysmic cuts at the Washington Post.
We agree wholeheartedly with @newsguild.org that a newsroom cannot be hollowed out without compromising its credibility, its reach and its future.
Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests
“Journalists have the right to do their jobs without fear of government interference,” said President Jon Schleuss.
“Today’s FBI raid on a journalist’s home is a direct assault on the 1st Amendment and a threat to every working journalist.

Graphic announcing that NiemanLab reported Politico management violated AI adoption safeguards. Large text reads: “NewsGuild Journalists won their AI arbitration against POLITICO… but why does that matter?” Below is a red button stating “Let’s talk about it.” At the bottom are the logos for The NewsGuild and “News Not Slop.”
Graphic explaining the significance of the AI arbitration ruling. Section heading reads: “The ruling marks one of the first major tests of an AI clause in a newsroom union contract.” Social media screenshots quote PEN Guild posts discussing Politico’s use of AI tools and emphasizing that AI isn’t held to human editorial standards. Large red box states that NewsGuild journalists fought for AI protections because robots are not subject to the same editorial rigor.
Graphic stating that the Politico arbitration proves union contracts protect workers from unethical AI implementation. A large quote from the US Congressional Research Service notes that no broad federal AI regulatory framework exists. Text below explains that government hasn’t caught up to regulating AI, leaving workers vulnerable to cost-cutting by employers.
Graphic with heading “This is a blueprint for workers everywhere.” Text explains that strong contract language on AI at Politico sets a model for all industries facing unregulated AI. Another line reads: “If workers can enforce AI protections here, we can enforce them anywhere.” Below is a photo of a woman holding a megaphone at a labor rally, and a “News Not Slop” block inviting viewers to sign a petition.
Workers can regulate AI with strong contract language. Full stop.
Unionized journalists just proved this at POLITICO. @pen-guild.bsky.social

Wait a second. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called you to give you your job at a private news outlet back?
OANN, anyone care to explain the government's role in your hiring decisions or do we need to FOIA to find out?
For years, city school officials have celebrated what they called a dramatic turnaround in a once-struggling district — pointing to a nearly 35-point jump in graduation rates in a school where half of students once failed to earn a diploma.

When you’re a parent, you literally say sentences that you never thought you’d say outloud and you have thoughts that sound insane if written down.
Such as; I hurt my back helping my son poop on the potty.
Yes it was a big poop. 💩 Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
