Yesterday, I spoke with Teamsters Local 406 in Grand Rapids. They shared that one of their proudest moments is also one of mine - when they stood in the State Senate chamber as we voted to repeal so-called "Right to Work," —

For those who aren't aware, Right to Work, Stand Your Ground, Papers Please and other conservative laws swept through the country 15 years ago, where these state laws had surprisingly similar wording. That's because they were boilerplate fill-in-the-blank forms from the Koch brothers and ALEC.

And yet the Teamsters as good as endorsed Trump, even after the Democrats saves their pension plan.

If you're going to run for higher office it would behoove you to NOT take any money from AIPAC or any other foreign PAC. Taking any money from a foreign influenced PAC will be an anchor on your campaign.

and how Winnie Brinks used her remarks to call out - years after Governor Snyder kept union members out, we invited them in. We righted a wrong. And we strengthened labor. Together. They also reminded me is that, in this moment, Democrats need to "complete the sentence."

It isn't enough to just say that the Big Ugly Bill kills good union jobs and raises prices for all of us. It's on us to share how we can – and will – build something better. A New American Dream – with a strong labor movement at the core.

Unless the Democrat Party divests from Israel and grows the stones to call them out on the ongoing genocide, then neither party deserves my vote. No candidate that receives AIPAC (or other Zionist funding) should receive a single penny in contributions. Try to get on the right side of history

Not supporting Harris got us Trump. How is that working out for you?

Under Harris a Genocide was going to continue. The enabling and continued support of a Genocide sure as hell wasn't working for a LOT of people. A lot of reasons Harris lost, that was the primary reason. If you can't see that you're either hopelessly blue-pilled, a shill, or a paid DNC actor.

Couldn’t have been worse than it is with Trump. And then WE get Trump, too, thank you very much.
