Shout out to the GUTS bus drivers at Georgetown U— unionized with @1199seiu.org. Got to hear from them today about the university’s ongoing attempt to turn them into subcontractors. Bad! Contrary to Jesuit values! Just like adjuncts, they’re fighting for decent full time jobs. Solidarity on campus.

The correct news headline for this is not "Trump to Lay Out His Plan for Reducing Crime in Nation’s Capital" (Bloomberg) or "Trump to speak at White House on violent crime in D.C." (CNBC), but rather "President Lies About Crime in DC."
