Management needs to be held CRIMINALLY RESPONSIBLE. That’s the only way this doesn’t repeat itself.

The families should sue the company for as much as possible. They would all be alive today if they were not forced to work during a HURRICANE. Beyond evil.

Nashville Resist 🪷 Against Authoritarianism1 year ago

Tennessee is one of the least worker-friendly states in the U.S. Union busting by the Republican supermajority is common. We're 41 of 50 states for average income. Minimum wage is $7.25 & we're one of the top states for # of min wage jobs. Is anyone really surprised? #VoteBlue

This should be prosecuted as manslaughter

Biblically Accurate Seraphim1 year ago

The supervisors and CEO need to be at least charged with manslaughter and tossed into prison for this.

absolutely no one will be held accountable

At a certain point, why don't you leave? That's unacceptable to my personal safety. I don't care what the company says, I'm not hanging out to see the outcome. Go ahead, fire me. I'll still be alive.

The FEMA official who was just fired for telling workers to avoid homes impacted by the hurricanes in Florida if they had Trump signs says that it was not "isolated" and that FEMA workers were instructed to do it in the Carolinas too.

🚨🇨🇳 Fascist China in Practice Factory workers only have 5 minutes bathroom break, which starts ticking the clock the second the workers leave their workstation. ——Immediately an alarm goes off & blue lights blink, and loudspeakers shouting in the whole factory to seach the worker. The time away is ultimately deducted from their pay packet.

After Democrats got on their soapbox and blasted anyone who criticized FEMA, bombshell reporting by Daily Wire shows FEMA management told relief workers NOT to help homes with Trump signs after Hurricane Helene. And it looks like the agency’s problems go way deeper…

Back in December a union rail worker warned about the potential for a catastrophic train derailment. Then, a week ago, it happened in Ohio. It's time to listen to the workers.

Hurricane Helene has killed at least 100 people caught in catastrophic flooding and landslides across the Southeast. It is projected to be one of the costliest hurricanes in U.S. history. Climate scientist Peter Kalmus says this was “caused by the fossil fuel industry."

Late last night, Amazon workers at the largest delivery station in the country — DJT6 in Riverside, CA — walked off the job. Workers are picketing to protest being overworked, underpaid and consistently union-busted by the company. Workers — not executives — make Amazon run!

Guy and girl skip out on paying their bill at Moon Villa Restaurant in Boston, Massachusetts. As they leave, the guy pushes one of the workers, then shoves two of the older workers so his girl can leave. Workers accuse the guy of not paying. He responds, “I don’t give a f**k, call the police b*tch.” What a disgraceful display. (princeadvm on TT)

There it is folks… Hurricane Helene was about cheating in the Election 🚨 The North Carolina Board of Elections Changed the Voting Rules in the Counties Affected by the Hurricane 10 Days before Early Voting Starts 🔴 RULE CHANGES • Easier access to Absentee Ballots • More time to apply for ballots • Drop off ANYWHERE in the state • “Assistance Teams” to help collect the fake ballots • The county board will also hire “poll workers” from other counties and move them all around the state —— nobody knows who these poll workers could be. • This is a major red flag… if ‘Voters’ can drop off their ballots ANYWHERE in the state, how can anyone contest voter turnout in any county? —— for example, if one county has 15,000 registered voters, we could now see a 30,000 voter turnout, and this could happen in any county in the entire state. • In 2020, it took North Carolina 10 Days to certify the election. How long will it take this time? First it was Covid… when they changed the rules. Now they’re using weather warfare…

The right to strike is a key democratic right. But too often when ordinary workers, like the bin workers in Birmingham, take action against pay cuts they are demonised. In Parliament, I spoke out against any attempt to portray ordinary workers as the enemy within.

Arizona 2020 election official testified that she personally witnessed Dominion systems switching votes from Trump to Biden. She also testified that election supervisors were decreasing signature verification settings on Dominion systems from 15 points of verification, down to ZERO, and told to just pass ballots through. Ballots were being counted with completely different signatures when compared to the ballot envelope signatures. They were all threatened not to talk about it when election workers approached their supervisors about the fraud occurring. There were NO errors. This was a coordinated operation with election supervisors, workers, compromised election companies and equipment, foreign countries, and state officials involved, all the way to the top, to steal the 2020 election.

LEAKED AUDIO: Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth told employees that he would like to sue workers who leak, saying on a weekly meeting: "We fine and fire leakers all the time. We tend not to sue those people, but I'd like to..." When Meta began using employee data to train AI without worker consent, over 1,800 Meta workers signed a petition asking to end the Model Capability Initiative (MCI). Bosworth claims these people “made the entire company worse.” Because of the workers collective action and an internal data breach where private data was exposed, Meta management ended the nonconsensual MCI surveillance program. Now the company's CTO is lashing out against workers, and appears to be equating worker organizing to leaking, even hinting at threatening workers for their protected organizing.

In-N-Out, Chipotle, and other chains tried to kill California's landmark fast food worker bill. Today they lost. Workers will now get a $20 minimum wage, and other huge wins. And it's thanks to workers like Anneisha Williams, a mom of six who works at Jack in the Box in LA.

I was out today with Birmingham refuse workers who are in dispute with Birmingham City Council. I'll say it again, workers should not be made to pay for the council's bad decisions. It's time to get decision-makers in the room and do the deal that protects these workers.
