Michigan Democrats stand in solidarity with the 750 nurses and caseworkers represented by Teamsters Local 332 in their fight for higher wages and safer nurse-to-patient ratios.
While you're heading home and getting dinner ready tonight, Mike Duggan will be sipping champagne at an invite-only big dollar fundraiser hosted by a MAGA megadonor who's been linked to corruption scandals involving city contracts. www.metrotimes.com/news/politic...
Screenshot reading Upon exiting, she was asked to rate her ride out of five lightning bolts, and the app suggested she leave a tip: $1, $2, or other. Five lightning bolts, Zara selected. Was the tip for the robot or the safety driver? As robots don’t need money, and the driver is a Tesla engineer likely making somewhere between $200,000 and $315,000 per year, she skipped the tip.
Lol Tesla's fake robotaxi is asking riders to tip. Comical shit. sfstandard.com/2025/09/15/t...
1. Azerbaijan hasn't been at war with Albania. Trump confuses Albania with Armenia. But he wants credit, a Nobel Prize, for ending a war in which he can't identify the parties.
2. The Fox hosts are too ignorant or too sycophantic to correct him.
3. Imagine if Biden had said this.
Kid: there's a shelter in place just wanted to let you know Me: are you ok? Kid: Yeah Not a lockdown just shelter in place Someone made a text this happened like 4 times last year it's fine Me: ok keep me posted please
Second week of school. Text from my kid, who's been through so many drills, shelter in place warnings and full on lockdowns that they're just the normal course of business now. This is the world people like Charlie Kirk worked to create.
Something is wrong with a system where 75% of workers say they’re worried about making ends meet, while greedy corporate CEOs make 285x what their median worker makes.
Working people don’t have to accept this. A union contract is how we fight back and WIN!
Pretty amazing how they can "precisely" target someone but every hospital, school, place of worship, refugee camp was an "accident."
I can't believe I need to have an AI policy! I made it pretty short though: Using AI is cheating, yourself mostly. In addition to the environmental blight created by AI, it makes no sense to use it in your intellectual and creative work. Why would you outsource your innate intelligence?
This was A+
The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations.

'a gleaming tourism resort and high-tech manufacturing and technology hub.'
Who wouldn't want to vacation over the slaughtered bodies of tens of thousands of children?
This is so sick.

Dear elected Dems who support Mike Duggan..
Good luck with your independent campaigns... 🤣
if you've never seen a guy try to sound tough while whining about getting his ass kicked by 90 year olds, check this out
Louder for the folks in the back: Republicans don't believe in democracy. They believe in dominance. And until we get our shit together and smash them into the ground a few times, they'll keep pushing the envelope farther and farther into fascism.
Laura Loomer's latest victim? Visas for critically injured Palestinian kids
The “proud Islamophobe” waged and won a days-long campaign against treating child amputees from Gaza.
Here's what to know for @motherjones.com:

Tim Dunn is a Texas oil billionaire with ties to the Christian nationalist movement. He dumped $5 million into Rogers' campaign. On top of that, he has lived in Florida for the past 10 years. He doesnt care about anyone but himself.
A man understandably refused to hand over his ID or get out of the car for a bunch of masked thugs who refused to identify themselves.
And when he drove away, they opened fire on him.
This isn’t how you do any sort of enforcement when your goal is to uphold the law. This is gangsterism.
From one Big Ugly Bill to another. This is your reminder that the Save Act is awaiting a Senate vote. Contact your senators now and demand they vote NO.

If you’re under any illusions about what an authoritarian personality cult the GOP has become, they’re not hiding it:
These kids were amputees and badly burned CHILDREN
That's awful. And the bombs maiming most of these children are ours.
Gaza is the size of Detroit and home to the most child amputees per capita. HEAL Palestine is an organization that evacuates these children and provides them with much needed medical care. This is beyond cruel, but I expect nothing less from these sadists. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
It was such a privilege to be in the beautiful Upper Peninsula this week, hosting an important Town Hall with Chair Hertel and colleagues from the Michigan Democratic Party. We had meaningful conversations about the challenges and opportunities facing their communities. I can't wait to go back.
In Iron Mountain, we stood with AFGE workers fighting back against VA Secretary Doug Collins’ anti-worker, anti-veteran move to rip up their union contract. Michigan Democrats are showing up in every corner of the state to support veterans and union members
From skyrocketing CEO pay to the crushing costs of housing, childcare, and wages that don’t keep up — families were sold a bill of goods by Donald Trump. It’s time to make life a little easier for everyday Americans. Hear more from MDP Chair @CurtisHertelJr.bsky.social at PartyOnThePeninsulas.com
"To have somebody that is your own congressman, who is supposed to be looking out for you, refusing to meet with his constituents and addressing their pain, while voting to give tax cuts to billionaires and cutting services in his own district...it’s simply wrong." www.myupnow.com/news/residen...
We marched with UAW members today after Cleveland-Cliffs made a contractual promise to invest $300 million in the historic Rouge steelmaking facility, and broke that promise. Starting on July 15th, Cliffs decided to idle all but two departments, resulting in the layoffs of over 500 UAW members.
