Corporations spend more than $1.5B a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5B they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions. Kudos to these Autozone workers.

Trump's track record with 9/11 memorials has been consistently abysmal. Exhibit A:

Trump brought a 9/11 conspiracy theorist to a 9/11 memorial event
Laura Loomer once posted a video to Twitter calling the Sept. 11 attacks an "inside job." Trump took her to a fire station that responded to the World Trade Center.
