UNFTR Launches ‘5 Non-Negotiables’ Campaign to Advance Bold Progressive Agenda

UNFTR

UNFTR ( UNFTR.com ), known for its incisive analysis of American politics and unwavering commitment to progressive values, today announced the launch of its “5 Non-Negotiables” campaign. This new action aims to galvanize support for a transformative progressive agenda, directly confronting what the podcast views as the Democratic establishment’s fundamental inability to deliver meaningful change. The 5 Non-Negotiables—Housing First, Civilian Labor Corps, Medicare for All, Election Integrity, and Climate Action—represent a progressive alternative to the compromised politics that have dominated the corporate-bought duopoly for decades. “The Democratic establishment has consistently been dismissive of progressive priorities in the name of pragmatism and moderation,” said Max, host of UNFTR. “And to what end? Americans are confronting a housing crisis, shareholder-run healthcare system, corporate capture of elections and legislative processes, and a largely forgotten climate emergency, among other critical issues. The 5 Non-Negotiables reject that approach entirely. This isn’t about moving the Overton window slightly—it’s about a bold progressive vision that refuses to compromise on the fundamentals of what makes a just society.” The campaign is the capstone of UNFTR’s podcast series exploring essential progressive priorities, now condensed into comprehensive policy proposals backed by research and historical context: Housing First: Recognizing stable shelter as a human right and economic necessity, with evidence showing 85–90% of participants remain housed after the first year and savings of $10,000–$20,000 per person annually. Civilian Labor Corps: Responding to AI disruption threatening millions of jobs and vagaries of our capitalist boom-and-bust cycles thrusting workers into precarity by creating guaranteed meaningful work focused on climate resilience, care work, and community development. Medicare for All: Transforming a healthcare system that consumes 18% of the American economy while delivering poorer outcomes than other developed nations. Election Integrity: Reclaiming democracy from special interests through constitutional reform that addresses the corrupting influence of money in politics. Climate Action: Establishing a Climate Trust that ensures those who have contributed most to the crisis help fund solutions, generating substantial resources for resilience and adaptation. “When the Democratic establishment tells progressives to moderate our demands or ‘not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good,’ they’re repeating the failed formula that has led to our current crises,” added Max. “The 5 Non-Negotiables give progressives a platform that doesn’t just react to the right, but articulates a positive vision for transforming society. Simply being anti-Trump isn’t enough, as evidenced by the Democratic Party’s incredibly poor standing with the American public.” The campaign provides progressives with practical tools for organizing at the grassroots level, independent of party structures. The website ( UNFTR.com/5nn ) includes downloadable policy briefs, social media posts, and email templates for contacting representatives. UNFTR’s goal is to empower Americans exhausted of being pushed aside as the wealthy gain disproportionately more power. For more information about the 5 Non-Negotiables campaign, visit UNFTR.com/5nn.

TGI Fridays

TGI Fridays®, the iconic American bar and grill, is bringing flavor and fun in a big way with a bold new menu.

It’s just the beginning of our strategy to bring bold, vibrant flavors from our global footprint to our U.S. consumers.” At the center of the culinary upgrade: a crowd-pleasing favorite reintroduced with a twist—mozzarella sticks “sauced” with three bold Fridays flavors: FRANKS RedHot© Buffalo, Garlic Parmesan and legendary, Fridays-only Whiskey Glaze. Guests can also opt for the Original with all three sauces on the side. When it comes to cheese sticks and cocktails, Fridays isn’t following trends—they’re setting them. “Fridays is where mozzarella sticks went from just another bar snack to a must-have,” says Blanchette. “We kept our classics and layered on big flavors, so whether you’re in the mood for something familiar or feeling adventurous, our menu hits the spot.” And the drinks? Just as bold. The brand that introduced the singles bar concept put its cocktail heritage front and center with seven new drinks crafted to pack a punch. Signature beverages come with two-ounce pours, from Jack’s New Fashioned to the mega-sized eLITe —a riff on the Long Island Iced Tea Fridays invented in 1965—and the energy-fueled Turbo Toro. It’s a celebration in true Fridays fashion. Also new: the Big Queso Energy Burger, layered with roasted jalapeños, pico de gallo, cheddar and poblano queso, plus more queso for dipping (over a quarter pound of cheese!). Housemade Loaded Tots, amped-up tater tots with bacon, green onion and a new dip-everything-in-it TGI Sauce, round out the new offerings.

Spring Bird Delivers Transit Buses to MTR for Use in Major Construction Shuttle Operations

Spring Bird

Spring Bird has delivered six heavy-duty New Flyer D40LF transit buses to MTR, providing dedicated shuttle support for a large-scale semiconductor fabrication plant construction site. The buses will be used to safely and efficiently transport construction workers across the expansive site, reflecting the growing demand for durable, high-capacity shuttle solutions in complex infrastructure projects. The multi-bus order, fulfilled over the past year through several transactions, underscores Spring Bird’s rising role as a trusted supplier of transit buses for industrial and operational shuttle services. According to Spring Bird founder Elliott Carson, the deal came together due to “competitive pricing, fast turnaround, and strong warranty support,” all of which aligned with MTR’s high standards and tight project timelines. “This partnership with MTR is a great example of what happens when two teams are aligned in purpose and professionalism,” said Carson. “MTR had a clear vision, high standards, and a fast-moving project — and we were proud to meet that challenge. Supporting their shuttle operations with dependable, work-ready transit buses is exactly what Spring Bird is built to do.” The buses underwent standard make-ready servicing and were delivered ready for immediate deployment. While not retrofitted with low-emission or advanced telematics systems in this case, the New Flyer D40LF platform offers reliable performance, ample standing room, and durability that outperforms most traditional coach or cutaway vehicles under demanding, repetitive shuttle conditions. “Transit buses are built for this kind of work,” said Thomas Hoskins, Director of Operations at Spring Bird. “You’re moving large numbers of people, constantly, in stop-and-go patterns, sometimes on rough or temporary roads. These vehicles are designed for all-day, every-day use. They can load quickly, handle tough environments, and just keep going.” Spring Bird’s Construction Shuttle Service program highlights several key benefits of using heavy-duty transit buses in worksite transportation: Dual-door boarding allows faster loading and unloading compared to coach buses or vans. Low-floor designs increase accessibility and reduce boarding times. Higher standing capacity allows more flexible loading based on shift schedules. Cost-efficiency comes from needing fewer buses and drivers to move more people in less time. For MTR, choosing Spring Bird also meant working with a team that understands the complexity of operational logistics. “We’re proud to support partners like MTR who are helping to build the future—literally,” said Carson. “Whether it’s a long-term city transit solution or a short-term industrial project, our goal is always the same: safe, smart, dependable transportation.” The deal also adds another chapter to the Carson family’s eight-decade history in the transit industry. Spring Bird, founded by Elliott Carson in 2020, is built on a legacy that dates back to 1943 when Dean Carson began providing local transit in Los Angeles. Today, that commitment to innovation, service, and reliability lives on in Spring Bird’s growing footprint across public and private transportation sectors. About Spring Bird Spring Bird is a premier provider of transportation solutions, specializing in the sale, leasing, and service of heavy-duty transit buses and motor coaches. Drawing from the rich Carson family legacy in the transportation industry, Spring Bird offers an inventory of high-quality buses from leading manufacturers and provides customized rehabilitation services, including minor repairs, major overhauls, and technological retrofitting. Dedicated to safety, innovation, and customer satisfaction, Spring Bird addresses the unique needs of cities, transit agencies, and private operators, ensuring reliable and efficient transportation solutions.

Frequency Forward Files FCC Petition to Block Sinclair Broadcast License Transfers for Five Stations

Frequency Forward

Today, Frequency Forward filed a Petition to Deny, urging the Federal Communications Commission to block the proposed transfer of broadcast licenses currently held by Sinclair, Inc. to Rincon Broadcasting Group. The complaint alleges that Sinclair has systematically used shell corporations to evade the Commission’s multiple ownership rules and has repeatedly misled regulators about the extent of its control over local television stations. Frequency Forward contends that Sinclair’s repeated misrepresentations and ongoing deception are disqualifying and that the FCC should hold a hearing into whether Sinclair and its shell companies are qualified to remain broadcast licensees. The filing argues that Sinclair’s long-standing use of sidecar companies, including Cunningham Broadcasting and Deerfield Media, amounts to de facto control of stations it cannot legally own under FCC rules. The petition further details how Sinclair concealed key financial and operational relationships, failed to disclose its consolidation of these entities as Variable Interest Entities (VIEs), shared legal counsel across all three companies, and made material misrepresentations in previous FCC proceedings. “Sinclair has spent decades building a shadow network of fake licensees to skirt federal ownership limits,” said Arthur Belendiuk, attorney for Frequency Forward. “These companies are not independent broadcasters; they’re fronts for Sinclair. Chairman Brendan Carr has said he’s committed to treating all broadcast licensing matters fairly and balanced, and we hope he approaches this case with the same urgency and determination he’s shown in his first months as Chair.” The petition is critical of the FCC’s 2020 $48 million consent decree with Sinclair, outlining in detail why the consent decree was an inappropriate substitute for a full investigation into misconduct that strikes at the heart of the public interest standard. This includes new evidence obtained via Freedom of Information Act request, which shows Sinclair continued to misrepresent material facts to the Commission while under investigation by the Media Bureau. The Media Bureau entered the 2020 consent decree relying on Sinclair’s misrepresentations, which the petition claims “adds another layer of deceit to its growing list of false statements, concealments and misrepresentations.” The license transfers being challenged include five Sinclair stations: KHQA in Quincy, Illinois, KTVO in Kirksville, Missouri, WICS in Springfield, Illinois, WICD in Danville, Illinois, and WVTV in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The FCC must review and rule on the Frequency Forward petition before the sale of these stations can proceed. “The FCC’s job is to ensure that the public airwaves are used by companies that operate with honesty and integrity,” said Belendiuk. “Sinclair has shown a consistent pattern of deception—concealing ownership structures, misleading regulators, sharing lawyers, and evading accountability. These are not minor infractions. They go to the core of whether Sinclair deserves the privilege of holding broadcast licenses. The Commission must not look the other way.” A copy of the Frequency Forward’s Petition to Deny is available here. Frequency Forward: Frequency Forward is a public-interest organization and consumer advocacy watchdog dedicated to promoting greater transparency and accountability at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Our mission is to ensure the agency serves all Americans and is not beholden to entrenched corporate power. Additional information is available at frequencyfwd.com.
