The @uaw.org has claimed a narrow victory in a union election at the BlueOval battery plant in Kentucky, a historic win.
The tally is 526-515 for unionization.
Ford is contesting 41 ballots, a challenge the union is urging them to drop.

i will say again that given the trajectory of the white house so far, strident opposition a la 2017 would have absolutely been the most prudent and effective decision and the absence of that opposition in the first two months made things demonstrably worse.

never liked Gavin Newsom, but he played his hand all wrong. he could have leaned into being lib Darth Vader and ran on a platform of revenge and really gotten some excitement behind him but instead he's choosing to simply be a milquetoast Dem who happens to be evil in his spare time

It’s so clear that many Democratic leaders want to let Republican chaos be the story. They’re relying on the negative impact of conservative policies to propel them to future electoral victories. That’s not sufficient, as it’s clear their own base is unhappy with elected Democrats right now.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.
Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”
We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

i think rage at congestion pricing is a good example of how no one believes that the world can be positive sum anymore. like, people pay a small fee to get access to a faster commute — saving them valuable time — and the money improves public transit, saving other people valuable time. it's win-win!

BREAKING: The Teamsters are dramatically escalating their strike and taking it to Amazon’s largest NYC warehouse.
Beginning at midnight tonight they will picket the massive facility with 5,500 workers.
JFK8 on Staten Island is the first unionized Amazon warehouse.

Since 2019, I've thought about Biden's legacy more than I thought I'd care to share. In this final month of his first and last presidential term, I'm reflecting even more. Watching him flounder during the 2019 Democratic primary debates, I wished he had stayed in retirement.

Last night, Jeff Bezos dined with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, scheming about how they'll both get richer.
Today, Amazon workers are illegally arrested for exercising their right to organize their workplace and go on strike.
This is how oligarchies operate.

An absolute no brainer for DNC chair is @benwikler.bsky.social . Thanks to what Ben built at WisDems, when the country swung ~6 points to the right this cycle, Wisconsin only swung 1.5 points to the right, while actually *adding* seats in the state legislature and holding onto Tammy Baldwin's seat.
