why the NLRB still matters

[JZuraw]

When O'Brien scoffs about the NLRB, he's not being straight with the members. The Teamster organizing campaign at Amazon has benefitted a great deal from Biden's NLRB.

Any hope of organizing the Amazon Delivery Drivers died with the Biden NLRB.

Sad but true, the Trumpers will soon be victim to their ignorance.

Any hope of organizing the Amazon Delivery Drivers died with the Biden NLRB.

Bezos at the inauguration sat smiling behind Trump, he hid his fear after the big Amazon strike very well.

Amazon gave Trump and his wife 40 milllion to produce a documentary. It's all transactional for the Master grifter. Good luck kissing that ass Seanie Boy.

Did anyone notice that the richest men in the world were in the front row at the inauguration. They were in front of everyone else while regular people weren't even in the room, they were literally out in the cold.

I remember my first term as S/T and BA for Boston Local 504 in 1990. After 9 years of Reagan and Bush, Sr. that started with Reagan firing striking PATCO workers over health and safety demands, the NLRB was a place for ULP charges against employers to die. Permanent replacement of striking workers, reduced the numbers of strikes and Union density shrank drastically. Things didn't get better under 8 years of Clinton, 8 years of Bush, Jr. and even under the Obama NLRB, I don't recall seeing anything close to the pro-worker decisions by the NLRB until Biden got elected. I disagreed with Biden's support for genocide in Palestine; the major reason why many voters, that otherwise would have worked much harder for Biden. We are forced to fight our battles within the existing realities we confront.

Sean O'Brien's actions in regard to this past national election have setback workers' rights here and throughout the planet. HOW SOON WILL WE SEE O'BRIEN, AGAIN, PUBLICLY HANGING OUT WITH TRUMP AND HIS ALLIES IN CONGRESS. FRANK FITZSIMMONS PLAYED GOLF WITH RICHARD NIXON. THE TEAMSTERS ARE BACK TO THE 1980'S UNDER FITZY, ROY WILLIAMS, AND JACKIE PRESSER!

As a former Local 25 member when Billy McCarthy was Principal Officer, I got to say: O'Brien even makes McCarthy look better

Trump will get him to buddy up with Jeff Bezos just like he did with Markwayne.

[WTF891]

We need the Bezos O'Brien cage match! Why bother with fake strikes when you could do a weiner take all match?
