Platner's next fight


'In contrast, Platner has taken left-wing stances on most hot-button issues. He’s endorsed by Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and advised by some of the consultants who worked for New York City Mayor Zorhan Mamdani."

"Seitz-Wald argued that Mills’s veto last week of a proposed moratorium on the construction of data centers in Maine was the final nail in the coffin for her campaign."

May Day nationwide strike

BREAKING: Over 100,000 students are preparing to strike from school on Friday for May Day.

Over a dozen schools have cancelled classes because so many students and teachers are expected to miss class.

We're demand an economy and government that works for everyday people, not just the 1%.

A nationwide general strike is planned for May 1, 2026, aiming to halt economic activity to protest against the current administration and demand economic justice, immigrant rights, and the abolition of ICE. That's Friday everybody. We're shutting it down. So mark your calendars. X

Just like
Operation Ketchup on the ear
in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Remember how personnel rushed to get waiting photographers in place for the photo op?
