Railroad unions threaten strike over sick leave demands

Now he gets to share the blame if they strike anyway. -

He has been saying anti-semitic shit for years but his management was able to keep it under wraps. He literally wanted to name the Yeezus album after Hitler.

I don't think the lesson here is that the unions are to blame. -

Some unions are ratifying out of desperation. The rest know that it's a shit offer and want just a few days more. -

The offer is a wage increase and 1 paid sick day but no additional PTO besides that. Not all the unions agreed to that. So Congress will be forcing them to accept terms now. Pretty fucked up. -

Bingo. And Biden doesn't want that (understandably) but instead of getting the rail companies to acquiesce, he's trying to essentially seize the unions' right to strike to prevent the strike. It's not a good look. -

The unions would be unreasonable if the rail companies gave in to the sick day demands and the unions wanted more. The rail companies are giving them nothing. -

What I'm saying is that the Democrats and Republicans are probably in the rail companies' pockets because lobbying. I don't think Biden deserves the benefit of the doubt when the solution is so simple and apparent. He's more focused on working with the Republicans to prevent the strike instead of working with the unions to prevent the strike. And the Republicans will always favor the rail companies over the workers. -

Because the rail companies don't want to give them more benefits because it cuts into their profits. They're being greedy and they think they can get away with it because they know the government will intervene to prevent the strike because of how devastating it would be. -

Getting the rail companies to acquiesce would prevent the strikes though -

All he had to do was arm twist the rail companies to relent to the sick days. That's it. He is too afraid of upsetting them and any Republicans who could be up for bipartisan legislature. -

It makes him look like he's afraid to make rail owners and Republicans upset -

They should go on strike. Nobody is taking their threats seriously. -

Yeah this is looking very ugly. The Biden administration is basically trying to stop the unions from exercising their rights as unions to prevent the strikes. More negotiations are needed here, not capitulation to the rail companies. -
Yeah this was definitely some sort of a joke that went awry. A neo-nazi, a troll, and an unwell rapper enter a dumb right wing personality's edgy YouTube show. The unwell rapper is not told that the Jews are the cause for all his problems so they all leave.

And then they all storm out when you wouldn't refer to They as "THE JEWS"

So check this out: Right wing stooge Tim Pool had a planned interview with Kanye, Nick Fuentes, and Milo (THAT Milo). Kanye stormed out of the interview when he pushed back on his anti-semitic shtick. Nick and Milo also left. And now Pool is saying that Kanye was too woke. Like. Wow. This is real life.
