Labor unions enjoy record popularity and have made significant gains since 2020. But under Trump, they face major threats. Kamper discusses the struggles and opportunities of the moment. https://t.co/R3OvmCFXSP

An optimistic book in a grueling time. @dskamper gives us hope with stories of strategic fights led with the awakening of worker power. Solidarity is essential and so is reading this book. I was honored to write the foreword of Who✊s Got the Power?

Seriously. "The Democratic establishment" is fissured and fractured, with multiple centers of power and authority, mostly connected with the ability to raise and spend money. The DNC is just one part of that ecosystem, and by no means the most significant.
People - stop using DNC as a synonym for Democratic establishment

This administration has had many policy accomplishments, but the idea that Biden-Harris are avatars of working class populist politics is bullshit.
