JUST A FEW OF MANY COMMENTS:
Every part of this story shows the same thing: when people push back, the regime folds. The invincibility myth is dead — and they know it.
Couldn't agree more, Sam! And let's thank the gods the myth has died! So many people are finally standing up to the DC nonsense.
MAGA support for the Iranian war 32% !!
Otherwise some of them are as brainwashed as ever … but fewer,
— esp with the gas/ food etc crunch that Trump doesn’t care to even THINK about!
Weeks like this give me real hope. Seeing workers stand up and win, and even some Republicans breaking ranks — it reminds me that change is still possible when people refuse to stay quiet. Let’s keep fighting!
I'm thrilled for the stadium workers' win against the regime. I'm still waiting for more republicans to get their asses across the aisle to bring down the magats who are trying to destroy every our nation has accomplished in the last 250 years.
I applaud the workers!! Great use of leverage! More of this please!!
ICE is unAmerican but labor organizing is fully American!!
WINNIIIIING!!
Everything is pointing to the fact that THE PEOPLE ARE WAKING UP!!! Thanks to you and the other fearless journalists who are fighting the fight!!
When people are respected AT their job, BY the people they work for (both the 'bosses'
and the 'public'), then the job can easily become a source for joy and fulfillment - it is so much more than money, and yes, it IS that.
But when a job is ONLY about money, a person's soul is weakened and then prone to disease. How we treat one another shows at every level, and at every intersection that exists between workers and buyers. The simplest rule most people learn is called
The Golden Rule. It is that valuable and that true ONLY if a person adheres to it all the time, no exceptions - when exceptions are made, we are not fooling ourselves, we are going into personal debt. It is wonderful to hear of workers earning a strong living wage.
I am so proud of the stadium employees for refusing to bow down to ICE! They are brave, heroic people!
Democrats are winning! Republicans are defecting and ousting their own rotten apples! We need to see more of this.
It is time for the REST of the Epstein Files to be released!
Thank you, Scott, for this great news today! You keep my spirits up!
1. Have the Republicans EVER done this before?
2. The labor movement helped to make America great in the first place.
👍🏼 Republicans Against Perry have come to their senses and don’t want the nuclear ☢️ reactor on Three Mile Island restarted! Good! Go, Janelle Stelson!
👏🏼And I applaud the SoFi stadium 🏟️ workers for striking and winning! 40% raises and the right to walk off the job if ICE threatens any worker. ⚽️
Donny is losing more support than a bra from the dollar store.
LOL 😂 Good one!😂
Hahahahahahaha! That's a great one!
Hilarious but true.
There is strength in numbers!
What those workers did to protect themselves is outstanding.
Standing up to bullies does work
Love the Stadium win! Love American workers fighting to NOT be a complicit cog in the machine trying to drag us into tyrannical authoritarianism - how DARE they ask for the workers' nationalities
What do you think about Republicans crossing party lines to take down Scott Perry?
I'm glad they are finally realizing the error of their ways!
Any thoughts on the huge win for workers at SoFi Stadium?
Great! I'm glad they won their right to a better than fair wage and the right to work without fear of ICE! I sincerely hope that holds!
Congratulations to the union workers standing up for themselves and all workers! Power to the People!
I love that some Repubs are crossing over! Maybe they are finally waking up!
Thanks, Scott, for not just reporting the doom & gloom of the orange menace's daily junk but showing us the WIN! It's so helpful in holding on.
I'm thrilled with the news that Trump is losing his touch! And thrilled for the stadium workers who stood together and won! As everyone else said keep fighting any way you can!
About Republicans who turn against MAGA Republicans, it’s about time. They aren’t doing the right thing. They see the Blue wave coming. Better be Blue than unelected MAGATS.
The irony that ICE helped Union workers get better hourly wages and protection from harassment from the head of Murder Inc. USA, is breath taking. Throw da’ bums out! 86 47
To be honest, I am pleasantly surprised that Republicans actually stood up and endorsed a Democrat in Pennsylvania! Scott Perry does not sound like someone who has his constituents' well-being in mind! Backing a billion-dollar federal loan in order to restart the reactor at Three-Mile Island has to be one of the dumbest things he could ever do! I hope Pennsylvania voters take that into consideration when they vote! I applaud all of the workers at the SoFI stadium! Standing their ground and letting the powers that be know they can walk out at any time! I love that! November is fast approaching. We absolutely must do everything we possibly can to get out the vote! Write those postcards, talk to everybody about how important this election is, sign petitions and protest, protest, protest! Keep fighting, America! Stay strong and stay safe!
My favorite: …”When Congress forced the regime to release the first batch of files, Trump, his family, and Mar-a-Lago were mentioned more than 38,000 times. Trump’s own pollster now warns that the Epstein files ranked among the top issues “in every group” of voters tested in the spring…”
As it should be! How we still haven’t seen everything in the Epstein files (as the law states we should have long ago) is inexcusable, IMO.
Wealthy business owners don't like unions and we need to make sure they understand that we ALL have a right to organize for better pay and working conditions. So, yay! Congratulations to the stadium workers, who saw a golden opportunity, and they took it!
Republicans endorsing Democrats to rid our government of these disgusting MAGAts warms my heart. Maybe someday, those Republicans will join us on the other side of the aisle and continue fighting for our nation. The MAGAts must be defeated, by any means necessary. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
We must all fight every single minute of every day to get this monster into lame duck territory and watch him fade into obscurity. Not that he and his toxic family will go without continuing to make our lives miserable and to take everything that is not nailed down and abuse every privilege given to ex-Presidents. A lifetime of grifting.
Good for the workers, and yes, winning is fun.
FROM MOTHER JONES:
You Will Be Shocked to Learn That Donald Trump Pardoned a Corrupt Politician
excerpt:
The list includes:
George Santos, who pleaded guilty to wire fraud and identity theft.
Michael Grimm, Republican from Long Island, who pleaded guilty to tax fraud, but also acknowledged wire fraud, hiring undocumented immigrants, and perjury.
Rick Renzi, an Arizona Republican who was convicted on 17 charges for a variety of misdeeds, including threatening to use his legislative power to stop a land deal unless he was paid by an investor.
Duke Cunningham, a California Republican who pleaded guilty to tax evasion, conspiracy to commit bribery, wire fraud, and mail fraud.
Duncan Hunter, a California Republican who pleaded guilty to misusing campaign funds, including to finance activities related to extramarital affairs.
Of those 13 onetime members of Congress who received clemency from Trump, two were Democrats—current Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar, who was facing felony charges for money laundering and bribery, and Rod Blagojevich, the former member of Congress and Illinois governor who infamously tried to sell Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat. Blagojevich appeared on The Apprentice with Trump and supported his 2020 and 2024 political campaigns.
