NEW: 52% of Americans are working class, compared to just 2% of people in Congress – Dan Osborn wants to buck that trend. Two years ago he led 500 coworkers in a successful strike at Kellogg’s Omaha plant. Now he’s running for Senate to represent Nebraska’s working class.
"CEO pay has soared 1,209.2% from 1978 to 2022, according to an analysis by the Economic Policy Institute, compared to a 15.3% rise in typical workers’ pay." “'We have an incredibly corrupt corporate governance structure,' said Dean Baker, a senior economist at the Center for…

If I get election data for Wheeling on May 14 are there any map nerds (complimentary) who would be willing to put something together for Wheeling Free Press?
This was the ruling class response to people demanding that cops stop murdering.

“Why has the PR been so awful?… typically the Israelis are good at PR—what’s happened here, how have they and we been so ineffective at communicating the realities and our POV?… some wonder why there was such overwhelming support for us to shut down potentially TikTok.”
New from me: ODNR suspended opertions of two fracking waste injection wells owned by an Ohio state Senator. Their brine leaked up through five production wells, causing an environmental mess. ODNR paid $1.3m for cleanup and hasn't aske dhim for a dime cleveland.com/open/2024/05/f…
UAW Local 4811, which represents 48,000 student-workers in the UC system, will hold a strike authorization vote over the use of force the university ushered in by asking the LAPD to come to UCLA. The union says they'll "take any and all actions necessary to enforce our rights."
Want a raise? Join a union.
The UAW will never support the mass arrest or intimidation of those exercising their right to protest, strike, or speak out against injustice.

Think of the children! No, not those children. No, not them, either. No,
Capitalism is built on the meritocratic idea that everyone gets what they deserve in the marketplace. This May Day, let’s reject that idea — wealth creation is a fundamentally social process, and the rich have no right to hoard all the resources and power. jacobin.com/2023/05/wealth…
Boeing is threatening to lock out crucial safety workers — its fire fighters. In three days Boeing plans to lock its firefighters out of the workplace, instead of giving the unionized workforce a good contract. The company is putting safety last, again. thestand.org/2024/05/boeing…
Just for wearing the keffiyeh. Zionism and imperialism are deemed more important than graduation, more important than free speech, and more important than our kids.

Happy May Day to the workers of the world! Today is about joy, solidarity, and rebellion, and has been since a Black anarchist named Lucy Parsons led the country’s first May Day march in 1886. The cops called her “more dangerous than a thousand rioters.” Be dangerous, beloveds.
“Clashes” didn’t break out. Violence didn’t “erupt.” Pro Israel protesters at UCLA violently assaulted peaceful anti-war protesters while cops watched.
This is why police were militarized. Not for public safety, but to brutally repress dissent.
