This is what your Republican vote gets you

In keeping with his pro-labor policies, President Biden’s Department of Labor issued a new rule stating that if you earn less than $58,656 a year, your employer cannot classify you as an “exempt employee” to deny you overtime pay. This rule would have provided overtime pay to at least 4 million Americans, if not more. The State of Texas and business groups sued the Biden administration to block this rule, claiming it was bad for business.

Surprise, surprise—on Friday, the Trump-appointed Texas federal judge ruled against workers and in favor of the State of Texas and the business groups. The judge issued a “nationwide injunction” blocking President Biden’s rule to provide overtime pay to millions of Americans. This ruling by the Texas judge affects the entire country.

There will likely be no appeal of this ruling since the Trump DOJ and Department of Labor are supportive of it.

The point of this story isn’t to discourage you—it’s to give you a clear picture of what’s happening in America. Other than this Substack, and perhaps a few others, this major ruling is receiving zero media coverage. Corporate media—owned by billionaires who directly benefit from this ruling—refuses to report that Trump hates, despises, loathes, mocks, and constantly screws over American workers.
