  1. “The United Auto Workers union on Tuesday filed federal labor charges against former President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk for threatening to intimidate workers who go on strike.

    The charges claim the former president and the Tesla CEO had “interfered with, restrained or coerced employees”
    who were exercising their right to organize against the company,
    “suggesting he would fire employees engaged in protected concerted activity, including striking.”

    Both Trump and Musk want working class people to sit down and shut up, and they laugh about it openly. It’s disgusting, illegal, and totally predictable from these two clowns.”

    Workers have attempted to organize at Tesla several times. But Musk and Tesla’s aggressive tactics and outspoken opposition to unionization – in addition to Tesla’s strategy of granting factory workers stock options – has kept unionizing efforts at bay.

    This isn’t Musk’s first run-in with the NLRB. Earlier this year, the board accused Tesla of illegally restricting technology in the workplace to dissuade workers in a Buffalo, New York, factor from organizing.”

  2. The last 2 presidents of the UAW are in prison

    No shocker there. Corrupt to the bone. Not for workers at all. They have been shaking Tesla down for years. The workers don’t want a union. Most of them will retire early from their stock options they got.

    Fuck UAW
