It takes about 18 months for a fascist state to take over.

We are 9 months in.

My new piece is published in Fourth Wave: “This especially hurts women who make up the majority of our nursing workforce.”

It’s important to understand just how rich billionaires really are.

Hah!

My new op-ed on layoffs ⬇️

“...the real driver behind layoffs is the corporate pursuit of higher profits for shareholders and big pay outs for millionaire executives.”

REMINDER: Starbucks workers are still on strike.

Don’t cross the picket line!

Spoiler alert: It's working on behalf of workers.

Here's what a day in my life looks like as President of UFCW 3000.
December 27, 2025 at 9:59 PM
When we can see that we're all good people, it's harder to divide us.
December 23, 2025 at 8:21 PM
How can workers organize and build power without a union?

Let's talk.

UFCW 3000 represents 5000 nurses.

To disincentive young people from going into an essential, highly skilled profession like nursing is lunacy.

You're not a "success" if you exploit your workers.

I want my old QFC and my old Fred Meyer back!

We need to reverse consolidate.
December 16, 2025 at 12:52 AM
Textbook corporate greed.
December 14, 2025 at 7:42 PM
Corporate consolidation hurts all of us.
December 12, 2025 at 6:42 PM
This is how big businesses rewrite the rules for themselves. Unions are how the rest of us fight back.

Break up the monopolies.
December 8, 2025 at 5:47 PM
More monopolies = higher prices for all of us.
December 1, 2025 at 1:24 AM
Time to tax billionaires and break up the monopolies.

If your employees need welfare to get by, you’re not paying a living wage.

Full stop.

🙄yet another way for tech billionaires to grab more power – and it will ultimately be at the expense of workers.
November 26, 2025 at 5:24 PM
Good idea – let’s see more of this.
November 24, 2025 at 6:34 PM
We’re living in a two-tiered economy.

Corporate profits surged over 35% since Trump’s tariffs. Meanwhile, layoffs have exploded to over 1.1 million this year – the highest since the pandemic.
