I don’t usually share personal information. I am a practicing Christian, raised in the church. If Christ was here on Earth right now he would be called “socialist” “communist” “woke” and all the other crap. The fools like this guy have absolutely no idea…none.

Today one of the most important union elections in modern American history begins. Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee start to vote on joining the @UAW. If they win it won't just be thousands more union members, it'll be a turning point for labor in America.

We spoke to Shawn Fain about division: "That's how this class war has been fought over the last 40 years. That's how the billionaire class and the corporate class have taken everything is because they've done a masterful job at dividing the masses, at dividing the working class."
Talk does nothing. The facts speak for themselves. We have the worst teacher and staff shortage due to low pay and poor policies. Instead of trying to silence educators, support us as we fight for a better life for our students and our colleagues. #PublicSchoolsUniteUs
