Workers describe tens of thousands of packages delayed—and a strong sense of empowerment within warehouses—after Amazon workers with the Teamsters launched the largest strike to date against one of the world's most powerful companies.
In a binary system, when one choice has abandoned all facade of supporting the largest union in the country … What do you suppose they do?
Trump is a simple creature, his last admin proved you can get downright progressive results by kissing his ass in a way that generates good publicity or profits. As a reminder Trump pardoned more nonviolent black prisoners than Biden has, because a set of rappers recognized his game and played it. Hell there’s a good chance Republicans are going to be the ones to legalize marijuana, not reschedule it, legalize it because they recognize how frustrated people are with Dems and it’s an easy, cheap, and ideologically consistent win.
How else do you think labor is going to get anywhere under a Trump regime? Have you already forgotten he and Elon joking about firing people for trying to unionize?
I expected him to not kiss Trump’s ass, but I guess that’s asking far too much of a fucking labor leader.

Call for a general strike.
Great way to reduce membership numbers in a pretty violent way, also union membership isn’t high enough to be a real general strike.

The way the teamsters are going about it, making friends with and directly interacting with Trump.
