🚨 The UAW is done falling in line behind the Democratic establishment. Before tomorrow’s Michigan primary, Shawn Fain tells David Sirota why the union backed Dr. Abdul El-Sayed—and why politicians funded by the people rigging the system cannot claim to represent workers.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed @davidsirota really good interview with thoughtful questions, which I see less of in mainstream news media.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed shawn fain rules

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Next time the democrat establishment will let them sink

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Sad Shawn punk by Abdul. But he’s not alone! Abdul takes anti-PAC dark money he hides. Along with his & wife’s finances. She a psychiatrist & refuse to accept any kind of insurance CASH only! @HaleyforMI experienced & helped save auto industry!

@WajahatAli @UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Look - BOTH candidates are Democrats. Yes one is a Corporate Dem or ConservaDem & I hope she loses. But we all have to back Democrats over Republicans this fall. We will never be able to stop the flow of $$ to Israel or stop the war if we don’t take back Congress.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Never buy an American car again. They support terrorist

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Haley Stevens literally helped saved their f*cking jobs but yes, go with the unproven and untested ass who lies about being a physician

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed @UAW members and workers don’t follow the corrupt @uaw international Fain who made this endorsement

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed You are the snowflake ❄️ for the union… for fuck sake… we can all tell you have NO BALLS!!!

If workers @UAW wanted better wages they would shit can their high priced union boss who is supporting a guy who wants unfettered illegal immigration which undercuts wages. Also its total bullshit that Abdul didn’t take PAC money, you just got behind a guy who’s never done a damn thing for workers and who’s repackaging a failed economic system. Shawn Fain is a clown, eat the rich moron you are rich.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed This is a very good interview! Very thorough on his key positions. Nuanced on the tariff stuff that he caught shit for. Democrats cannot hold on to power if they do not represent normal working people. I am glad that Fain and the UAW are doing this push against weak Dems.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Really authentic and no talking poit?

@davidsirota @UAW @ShawnFainUAW @AbdulElSayed DNC “the stooge must be the nominee, even if the stooge can’t win a general”

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Are they representing the views of auto workers here?

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed I can't help associating him with the IRA.

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed A big USEFUL IDIOT!

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed because unions are fucking worthless and all they are is wanting to spread communism throughout the United States

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Man knows how to follow the motion

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Harsh truth, but the Democrat party is run by worthless pampered elites. Can you blame anyone for looking elsewhere?

@UAW @ShawnFainUAW @davidsirota @AbdulElSayed Mr. Fain’s math model is suspect. He quotes industry wide profits as evidence wages are too low. A more objective measure would be to calculate what percentage of profit before worker wages, benefits and pensions goes to wages benefits and pensions. Ford is actually losing money.

Who is more easily corrupted with the Union. Uion is about two things , just like any politicians, money and power. Dumocrats have been long history for symbiosis with the unions, especially public. Within the democrats, politicians with foreign born are more corrupted than native democrats. Just observat history. Ilham omar is well-established case corrupttion.
