Damn. Wow.

Remember, for a long time, there was strong suspicion that Nixon did this, but no locked-down proof.

A few years ago, though, contemporaneous notes of Haldeman's were examined and they contain unambiguous evidence that Nixon did indeed sabotage the peace talks.

Often, people who see how a kind of food gets made don’t ever want to eat it again because the process is icky.

I had *the exact opposite* experience listening to BCTGM International Local 218 members. They are skilled professionals dedicated to safety and quality. Eat more Cheetos.

Congratulations to our ESPs on reaching a tentative contract agreement. When we fight, WE WIN!

Grow up. These are serious times. Quit acting like politicians are delicate little things that need protected at all costs. They’re public servants. And they get it wrong. A lot.

Quit feeding into a system that produced Trump in hopes it’ll get rid of him. It’s failure.

nick It is no longer possible to take these universities or their leaders at their word, or seriously. The average American college president is not an educational leader but a political and financial weathervane, prey to the immediate forecast, buffeted by variable winds. 16/

I hope everyone on here talking about 'occupying private property is wrong and the police response is warranted' realizes that they're publicly admitting they would have opposed the Civil Rights Movement

Happy May Day to the workers of the world! Today is about joy, solidarity, and rebellion, and has been since a Black anarchist named Lucy Parsons led the country’s first May Day march in 1886. The cops called her “more dangerous than a thousand rioters.”

Be dangerous, beloveds.

I lived through 2020 in the Twin Cities so I think it’s a pretty safe bet that the kids getting punched in the face by cops are right and in about 3 years a federal commission will quietly and shamefully confirm that.

.DeltaAFA Flight Attendants are on the move and building serious momentum to get a vote to for their union with AFA-CWA and negotiate an industry leading contract. They are ready to fly as part of a powerful worldwide Labor Movement. #MayDay2024

SCOOP: Mercedes has hired union-busting firm RNP Labor to hold captive-audience meetings. They are coercing workers who haven't been visibly pro-union to attend. Workers say union-busters ask in the meetings for a show of hands of who is voting yes or no. labornotes.org/2024/04/relay-…

Driving through Iowa today, so of course it's The Music Man soundtrack for me.

One thing you learn in doing worker-centered union organizing and communications is that members are the story, not attorneys or staff.

Attorneys or staff that are repeatedly the spokesperson is a warning sign.

NEW: What can auto workers at other German and Swedish plants learn from the UAW’s success in Chattanooga, Tennessee? And what new challenges await them in these next campaigns?labornotes.org/2024/04/relay-…

damn, Mercedes workers have already:

-- killed two-tier wages
-- gotten their UAW pay bump
-- fired their boss

and they haven't even voted yet!

If that's what you get for just *talking* union, imagine what you can win when you *join* the union.

May 13-17, get ready.

This is the thing. Impact bargaining does not require bargaining until an agreement is reached, but it DOES require good faith bargaining up until the end.

Leo Casey DSA I don’t think I’ve ever seen (though I may have missed an example) any DSA caucus slate, or even independent candidate for the NPC, talk about their experience and competence running large organizations, or even acknowledging that that’s the primary job.

Leo Casey DSA Regardless of their view of the current financial issues and collective bargaining subjects, all the DSA factions have spent the past few years devoting geometrically more energy to questions like, “should this organization of 80,000 people form an independent political party”…
