Labor Day Is a federal holiday falling on the first Monday in September, and celebrating the achievements of American workers. 

However, some in the #USA will be working today. They are healthcare workers, public safety officers, journalists, and those working in the field harvesting the food we eat or restocking the aisles at Walmart, Target, Publix, Kroger, and Albertsons which are open along with CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens. On-demand services such as Postmates, Grubhub, UberEats, and DoorDash will deliver orders on Monday for participating local and national restaurants.

New Yorkers are number one, the most Inconsiderate Rude and Ill-mannered people in the USA.

Now there’s agreement, you have an extra day to start spreading the news this #LaborDayWeekend, head to the top of one of NYC's observation decks and yell out loud.

The Empire State was named the "Rudest State in America," and we may have the strong, sometimes abrasive "New York" attitude to blame. ... According to Best Life's algorithm, 14.79 percent of New York State is "rude," along with 4.5 percent of New York drivers.

This is dedicated to someone very special. When I wake up each day, I like to think about how blessed and fortunate I am. Which is the real reasono behind feeling lucky to be alive? Each of us can probably come up with our own list of reasons for why we feel the way we do.

You Have No Right to Complain. Shut up and begin to accept our Education, Social Restrictions, and version of Justice, or else.

Some are accusing The GOP of imposing Sharia Law in the USA and becoming RepublicanTaliban. I understand the analogy and their benchmark for extremism. This is pure, homegrown, American Taliban rule.

Why would he sell his DC hotel if he intends to run for publi office again? He knows he is going to lose because he’s a GOP fraud.

Meanwhile, another one testifying. Is he expected to say the former guy is nothing but a freaking fraud and a liar?
