If you do apply for this job at the National Endowment for the Humanities, and you get it, we hope you'll consider joining our union! #NEH #AFGE #AFGEstrong #UnionStrong #ProtectWorkersRights

NEH Union - AFGE L3403 @nehafge3403.bsky.social · Aug 16

It's still incredibly unclear how the National Endowment for the Humanities can up and fire two-thirds of their staff last year without cause and then turn around and post job ads for our positions one year later. Make it make sense. #NEH

Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · Nov 23

Corning workers in North Carolina & Michigan are exercising their constitutional right to unionize with @steelworkers.bsky.social for better wages, benefits & working conditions.

Corning must stop its illegal union busting & intimidation.

I stand in solidarity with these brave workers.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday.

Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

Oh so people aren't allowed to strike now 🙄😳😒 really or is it just public servants?

Luxon needs to back off & STFU.

Strikes are legal & recognised as a right of workers when they feel the negotiations aren't working.

When unions thrive, democracy thrives. Collective bargaining isn’t just about wages—it’s about giving workers a voice in a system that too often silences them. #UnionsForAll #ProtectWorkersRights #afgeStrong

In a post on X, Farage proclaimed: “Reform is now the Party of Workers”! 🐎💩

Adam Bienkov @adambienkov.bsky.social · Dec 14

Fraser Nelson is the latest Farage apologist to dismiss the racism allegations against him, saying that there's never been any evidence of him ever being racist as an adult.

Just completely untrue. There is extensive undeniable evidence of it www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/nigel-fara...
