Welcoming our newest siblings! Workers at the Cooper-Siegel Community Library’s two branches in Pittsburgh voted to unionize with us at the end of July. "All workers need the protections that a union contract provides,” said Cameron Smith, who was part of the organizing committee.

For the working class, unions are the bedrock of power. They build a foundation for working families, bringing freedom from exploitation, economic stability, and collective strength. Any attack on unions is, unequivocally, an direct attack on equality, justice, freedom, and democracy.

This is the thing. Manufacturing jobs 100 years ago were dangerous, precarious, and poorly paid. Manufacturing jobs 70 years ago were a golden ticket to the middle class. The jobs didn't change. What changed was the New Deal and unions.

The problem is: they've mistaken correlation for causation. They think their parents and grandparents had a good life *because* of manufacturing jobs. When, in reality, their parents and grandparents had a good life *despite* manufacturing jobs, because of unions, high taxes, and social policies.

This is so out of touch you kinda have to laugh. "Move away from the dominance of small dollar donors"? Yeah, small dollar donors are the problem. Harris started on a rocket ship of small dollar enthusiasm. Her campaign fell apart when she started listening to these clowns www.politico.com/playbook
Screenshot derailing outlandish Third Way (aka Republican lite) think tank memo reading
More than a few stuck out to Playbook:

The party should “embrace patriotism, community, and traditional American imagery”;
Democrats should “ban far-left candidate questionnaires and refuse to participate in forums that create ideological purity tests” and “move away from the dominance of small-dollar donors whose preferences may not align with the broader electorate”;  
They should “push back against far-left staffers and groups that exert a disproportionate influence on policy and messaging” ;
Candidates should “get out of elite circles and into real communities (e.g., tailgates, gun shows, local restaurants, churches)”; and
The party needs to “own the failures of Democratic governance in large cities and commit to improving local government.”
