Since contrarianism is the watchword of the media, one might get the idea there is a racist backlash amongst young people. But that’s not true, it’s the contrarians and media who have the problem.
The kids are alright.

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

@sbworkersunited.org are rallying support on Thursday. These folks are leading the way organizing at a multi-billion dollar corporation. They’ve driven out one greedy CEO, now it’s time to win a contract!

In a world of Chuck Schumers, choose to be a Floyd B. Olson.
The workers had an ace in the hole: Governor Floyd Olson. Hormel naturally expected Olson to send in the National Guard to get rid of the strikers. After all, that had been standard procedure for strikebreaking for decades. But Olson refused.

This Day in Labor History: November 10, 1933. Workers at the Hormel plant in Austin, Minnesota sat down on the job. The win these workers achieved helped set up the labor militancy of the New Deal era that revolutionized the lives of American labor!!!!

Today you can choose a different course for our city. You can choose a mayor who cares as much about your city and your neighbors as I know you do.
We deserve better, Minneapolis. Rank me first when you vote today so we can do better – together.

After eight years as mayor of the largest city in the state, Jacob Frey has exactly 0 endorsements from state legislators.
Mayor Frey’s inability to work with people at the state and county is holding Minneapolis back and Minneapolis residents are paying the price.

His Department of Agriculture has multiple ways to continue feeding hungry Minnesotans during the shutdown. And instead of using it, they tried to take food off the table of kids and families across the country.

This election season, there have been numerous instances of Frey allies being indicted or charged with breaking the law.
Today, Shelley Madore was fined for trying to trick voters into thinking she had the DFL endorsement. Earlier this year, Lydia Millard violated fair campaign practices.
