Don’t forget the blood sweat and tears it took to get here, including being bombed by the US government in an attempt to strike break.
Any word from O’Brien on the latest events?
Thank you @realDonaldTrump for putting American workers first by nominating Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer for US Labor Secretary. Nearly a year ago, you joined us for a @Teamsters roundtable and pledged to listen to workers and find common ground to protect and respect labor in America. You put words into action. Now let’s grow wages and improve working conditions nationwide. Congratulations to @LChavezDeRemer on your nomination! North America’s strongest union is ready to work with you every step of the way to expand good union jobs and rebuild our nation’s middle class. Let’s get to work! #TeamsterStrong

What an asshole.
Edit: This is from a couple months ago, I’m not trying to make it sound like O’Brien is still licking Trump’s nethers as we speak. Although, it wouldn’t surprise me.

Accurate username, teamster son of a bitch is trying to sell out his members.
How did that little weasel come to lead the largest union in USA?
The oligarchs don’t realize the social democracy WAS the compromise. The alternative is general strikes and war in the streets, not “we just get to keep all the money and make you serfs again”
Definitely seems to be going the latter way right now
Compromising with capitalists is like making peace with Putin. They just waited to get stronger before trying again.
Depends. If people keep showing up for work, even though they’re functionally serfs again, because they’re too scared of losing their job or getting the shit kicked out of them for trying to organize a union, then they will get to make us serfs again.
You are completely right about social democracy, and I also hope and believe that your outcome is the alternative. But it’s not the only alternative.
