Labor Day Got Loud
While billionaires were grilling Wagyu on their yachts, workers and resisters were marching in the streets. On Martha’s Vineyard, chants of “Power to the Workers” drowned out the oligarch wine tastings. NAACP MV and Indivisible turned Labor Day into Labor’s Day, clawing back the spotlight from the billionaire class.
Bye-Bye GOP Supermajority
Iowa, the land of corn and right-wing nonsense, just handed the GOP a scratching post they won’t forget: Democrats flipped a seat with a +21-point swing, smashing their supermajority. Down in Georgia, grassroots claws sharpened and candidates surged ahead. Democracy purred a little louder this week.
The Blue Wall of Health
California, Oregon, and Washington basically said, “Trump and RFK Jr. can choke on their pseudoscience.” They formed the West Coast Health Alliance to protect vaccines, doctors, and public health from fascist sabotage. Turns out states can scratch back too.
Paws on the Pavement
From DC to New York, unions, clergy, and activists filled the streets, marching against Trump’s federal overreach. Federal goons threatened intervention, but the people said, “Nice try, wannabe dictator, but this kitty’s claws are out.”
RFK Jr. Gets Mauled
RFK Jr. shuffled into a Senate hearing thinking he’d charm his way out of destroying the CDC. Instead, senators grilled him like a tuna steak over his plan to gut vaccine access. His answers were shakier than a kitten on catnip.
Kitty Verdict
Week 33 was proof that resistance is alive, loud, and claw-sharp. From the streets to the statehouses, we’re flipping seats, building alliances, and shredding fascist lies. Democracy isn’t dead—it’s just re-energized, caffeinated, and ready to pounce.
