The Department of Veterans Affairs appeared to be the first agency to begin terminating union contracts, affecting more than 400,000 workers.

Unionization is the one thing which has kept wages up and working conditions decent for federal workers.

    Fuck no, that’s not at all what I’m suggesting. Unions need to fight, and strikes are usually the best form of leverage the worker has. Strike, certainly, but remember that your opponent is not the President or this administration. Trump wants this because he thinks it will help him. But if we are prepared for the spin, and reject the lies, then it will not help him. If he receives his fair share of the blame, it will be an albatross around his neck.
