Truckers -- and all workers -- deserve so much better. As usual, the culprit is billionaires and wealth hoarding.

I did a… certain tweet two weeks ago. Something about insulin. You probably saw it. Anyway, here’s why I did it:
NEW: Remember the viral “insulin is free” parody tweet that set the internet ablaze? We were behind that. Here’s how our staff writer Sean exposed the greed of Elon Musk and Eli Lilly with just $8, 9 words, and 10 minutes.
🚨 Calling reporters / researchers / news junkies We're hiring a Social News Producer to cover breaking news and report scoops in politics, labor, and business through a class lens. Fully remote position. Details: …perfect-union-action.rippling-ats.com/job/514539/soc…
NEW: UPS drivers are collapsing in the street, suffering heat stroke & dying because the company refuses to put air conditioning in their trucks. @UPS made $13 billion in PROFIT last year yet won't pay for A/C like FedEx & Amazon already do. This should be a national scandal.
After the 2008 financial crisis, Occupy Wall Street said the government needed to retake control of our financial system from the banks. On the right, crypto tried to cut out the government from the financial system entirely. We looked into the ideological roots of crypto:

EXCLUSIVE: Trader Joe’s workers in Massachusetts are organizing to form the company’s first ever union. They say Trader Joe's has repeatedly slashed pay & benefits and neglected safety issues in recent years. They're unionizing to make the company live up to its own values.
The Trump admin & big meatpackers fabricated claims of pork & beef shortages to force workers into dangerous plants at the pandemic's height. **269 workers died** after getting covid-19 in meat packing plants. You must must must read @taylormtelford: washingtonpost.com/business/2022/…
One worker is left to run a Dollar Tree alone in Austin, TX. She says she can’t take breaks or go to the bathroom. Community members are helping her stock shelves. Dollar stores deliberately understaff stores to increase profit margins—at the expense of workers.
UPDATE: Kellogg’s VP Ken Hurley has lost his job after being caught on tape by @lhfang calling a union “terrorists” & bemoaning our reporting. He described our videos as “very sophisticated,” “a force to be reckoned with,” & “really impossible for a large company to combat.”
BREAKING: Tonight, NLRB General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo has escalated the legal fight against Starbucks for its illegal union-busting tactics. Follow along for key details and why this is such an important step by the NLRB. nlrb.gov/news-outreach/…
NEW: Cannabis workers are trying to form one of Colorado's first growhouse unions at Green Dragon, a massive corporate dispensary. Days after going public, Green Dragon fired every worker, rehired them as contractors and cut their benefits. Workers want Gov. @jaredpolis to act.
NEW: Joe Manchin is at the center of a major public corruption scandal. A new NYT investigation finds that, for 30 years, Manchin used his official position to benefit a West Virginia power plant, all while getting a cut of its revenue. Here are the most damning details:
We do not consent to this sci-fi horror film. The billionaires and corporate thieves have stolen from the working class for far too long. We’re organizing to take our fair share back for our labor. #1job - “8 hours for work, 8 hours for rest, 8 hours for what we will.” 🥖🌹

The UN recently announced the world is firmly on track to becoming unlivable due to climate change, and a group of workers unattached to any union won a labor victory over the richest man in the world — and both events garnered almost zero major media coverage.

A Walmart customer recorded evidence of Walmart overcharging her at self-checkout. The retail giant recently settled a lawsuit accusing them of deceptive checkout practices that rip off customers.
This TikToker just caught Walmart inflating the weight of chicken, and overcharging her. It was posted days after Walmart paid $45 million to settle a lawsuit accusing it of inflating the weight of groceries to rip customers off. The fine doesn't seem to have stopped them.

Colorado will provide 12 weeks of paid family leave for almost all workers starting January 1. Leave can be used for health issues, caring for family, newborns, and more. The U.S. remains the only major country in the world without nationwide paid leave.
This mom and nurse made a viral TikTok about living paycheck to paycheck, despite her and her husband both having good jobs and working full-time. A full 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.
BREAKING: @UAW is launching the largest union organizing drive in modern American history. Autoworkers at more than a dozen non-union companies are announcing simultaneous campaigns to join the union at UAW.org/join. The push will cover nearly 150,000 workers.
Since the Inflation Reduction Act passed: 🌟81% of announced clean investments have been for projects in counties with below-average weekly wages 🌟86% of clean investments are in counties with below-average college graduation rates ... 1/2

McDonald's is breaking the law by making 14 and 15-year-olds work during school hours, more than 8 hours a day, before 7 a.m. and after 9 p.m. The Department of Labor found five different locations violating these regulations. The operators are being fined $26,000.
Fined $26k for exploiting 34 kids. That's less than $1,000 per child. For one of the biggest franchises on Earth. Not even a slap on the wrist. The whole system needs a massive overhaul.
