BREAKING: 🚨 Hundreds of Amazon drivers at the trillion-dollar company’s DFX4 facility in Victorville, Calif., have joined the Teamsters and are demanding that Amazon recognize their union and negotiate a Teamsters contract 🚨
This is the third facility in the last month alone where hundreds of Amazon workers have courageously gone public to join the Teamsters.
My favorite AM Classical radio station, KMZT 1260 - perhaps the last of its kind anywhere on the AM dial - has changed its format to all Taylor Swift, all the time.
Senior ops showed us that we can’t count on #Amazon to protect us, but we proved we can count on each other!
Because of our collective action, KSBD remains CLOSED WITH PAY for all workers today as the #LineFire still burns with little control in the mountains above our facility.
Amazon doesn’t care about our safety, so we have to protect ourselves. Workers at KSBD in San Bernardino with @ieamazonworkers marched on the boss to demand that Amazon send us home with pay because of the dangerous wildfire smoke.
Walz: They talk about small government. Small enough to be in your bedroom, small enough to be in your exam room, small enough to be in your library telling you the things you should make decisions about.
We practiced with caskets that were stored outside our barracks building. To simulate the weight of honored remains, we’d toss several full sandbags into the belly of the casket and then, for hours, we’d go through our exact movements.
Over and over and over.

Remember: Young people like me have never experienced the hope that millions of people felt for Barack Obama in 2008. But now we do with Kamala Harris. And you bet we are going to channel our hope into real action & make Republicans find out like never before. Gen Z is ready.
In Lebec, CA, I was fooling around with the iPhone 12, hoping to catch a meteor trail and this 10-second exposure accidentally caught the Northern Lights! (Too dim to see with human eye.) #AuroraBorealis#NorthernLights@AuroraNotify

Los Angeles #COVID cases going up. At a doctor’s office this morning, they said masking was encouraged but not required, and the secretarial staff didn’t wear them but the medical personnel all did. @1goodtern
