#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1945: A strike by some 10,500 craft workers in the Conference of Studio Unions turns bloody when strikers battle police, studio guards and replacement workers. The conflict directly contributed to the passage of the Taft-Hartley Act and the Hollywood Blacklist. /1
Warner Bros. Studio firefighters turn high-pressure hoses on picketers on Hollywood Bloody Friday (also called “Black Friday”), Oct. 5, 1945. Studio police on studio rooftops also dropped tear gas canisters on the striking workers. Bloody Friday didn’t just crush the Conference of Studio Unions. It demonstrated that the fear of communism could be used to silence dissent and neutralize organized labor. By framing a dispute over wages and working conditions as a “Soviet plot,” studio executives wrote the playbook used by the House Un-American Activities Committee and paved the way for the Hollywood Blacklist. It helped corporate lobbying groups convince Congress that unions had grown too powerful, violent and radical. This accelerated the passage of the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947, which permanently weakened the legal power of organized labor. Ultimately, a two-hour violent confrontation created the blueprint for corporate dominance that still influences American labor today.

While we’re worried about the war, the Epstein files, drone attacks in CA… Josh Hawley and Republicans are taking this moment to push legislation to strip FDA approval for Mifepristone The assaults on Americans are coming from inside the house.

SENATE
Hawley introduces bill to remove FDA approval for Mifepristone
BY ALEXANDER BOLTON - 03/11/26 5:29 PM ETTHE HILL
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) on Wednesday unveiled legislation to remove Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for the use of mifepristone to end pregnancies, a bill that has quickly gained the support of major anti-abortion groups.
The legislation is an ambitious undertaking given the drug's widespread use in the United States, where an estimated 7.5 million women have used it to terminate pregnancies since the FDA approved its use in 2000. It accounted for 63 percent of all abortions in the U.S. in 2023.
But mifepristone, which when combined with the drug misoprostol can end pregnancies at up to 70 days of gestation, has become a major target of the anti-abortion movement. President Trump has sought to satisfy those anti-abortion voices by launching an FDA review of the drug, which has not been completed.
Hawley says the ability of doctors to prescribe the drug across state lines has led to rampant abuse and alleges that incidences of adverse health effects are far more common than the drug's maker, Danco Laboratories, has acknowledged.

I spend a lot of time criticizing the U.S. media’s failures to confront the fascist regime. But I think the NY Times and other outlets are showing serious skepticism about this appalling war. The coverage is far less sycophantic than in the Iraq war, for example. They need to keep exposing the lies.
