United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain compared Israel to the fascist nations of World War II in a tweet Friday celebrating the union’s call for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, after the Palestinian Hamas terror organization violated a seven-day truce. The fascist nations of World War II included Nazi Germany, which murdered six million Jews in the Holocaust; as well as Italy under Benito Mussolini. The Axis powers also included imperial Japan, ruled by Emperor Hirohito, and smaller fascist nations. As the UK Guardian reported, the union — one of the nation’s largest and most powerful

Proof that Union Leadership is far more devoted to extreme leftist politics than to their own union members.

I have read a philosopher who says that all ideological thoughts ultimately become the opposite of their origins. It’s a Law. Now unions exploit workers and think Jews are hitler. Is there any hope that the Monkeys won’t burn down civilization? “We’ll burn it down to save it. And arrest everyone who disagrees to save democracy.”

I learned a lot about unions from my sister, a teacher. She fell 'in love' with one of her students, she'd taught the girl in elementary school. When she made it to high school, my sister brought her home with her on weekends. They slept together. The school knew about it. Not one thing was done to her. I didn't understand it then. I do now.

Perhaps Shawn Fain does not know too much about Nazi history. Dropped out of grammar school?

Labor unions by their very nature were this country's first dose of communism. By virtue of being an American, Fain is entitled to his opinion, and the right to speak it. The socialist aspect comes when he forces union members into his group-think. It misuses their mandatory union dues to promote HIS opinion.

FTA: on the path to winning the justice that they so deserve. There's the problem, Hamas does not deserve whatever "social justice" is, they deserve death, humiliation and complete extermination for the rape, murder and kidnapping of innocent civilian children and women. In order to be on the side of the "palestinians" Fain must logically support their actions. The UAW is dying along with the US auto industry and they deserve their fate.

Gee, that sure has a lot to do with better wages and helping workers. Pfft. I am very pro-worker. I generally favor the idea of collective barganing. It’s very capitalist. But unions and union laws in the USA have zero to do with that. They don’t care or help workers. They’re just part of the international left and a grift.

The recent decision by Disney to pull its advertising from X drew fire from Elon Musk. During a conference appearance, the billionaire used the far more explicit form of telling someone to go jump in a lake to respond to the move. Musk also called out Disney CEO Bob Iger by name, accusing him of trying to "blackmail" X with money to eliminate free speech on the social media platform. What was the reason behind Disney's move? According to reports, the company was reacting to a manufactured Media Matters "study" in which they were able to produce some ads next to antisemitic content. As RedState noted,

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced Saturday that it had killed Hamas commander Wissam Farhat, who was involved in planning the October 7 terror attack and had been involved in terrorism against Israel for almost three decades. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has promised that Israel will kill every Hamas member involved in the October 7 attack. Farhat was arrested in 1995 while driving a truck full of explosives for use in a terror attack against Israel. Hamas claimed later that he had divulged the location of another Hamas commander in Gaza City, who was later killed in an explosion.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed his nation on Saturday evening to reassure them that the Israeli military would continue the invasion of Gaza until “absolute victory” over Hamas had been achieved. Netanyahu spoke at a press conference roughly 36 hours after Hamas broke a seven-day truce, ending negotiations that had led to the release of 84 Israeli women and children that it had taken hostage, as well as 24 foreign nationals. Netanyahu ordered negotiators to return home from Qatar on Saturday. In his address, Netanyahu mourned the death of an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officer whose death in the Hamas terror attack of October 7 had only just been confirmed

As the Israel-Hamas War resumed after the ceasefire was broken when Hama fired into Israel, a top Hamas official "promised" in an interview with Lebanese media that the terrorist organization would "soon" launch a "war of liberation" against the Jewish State — larger than the horrific Oct. 7 massacre. In the interview, transcribed by MEMRI (The Middle East Media Research Institute), senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan was asked: "If you could go back in time to October 6, would you still do what you did on October 7?" His response was immediate and direct: Why do some people assume that we would go back on our acts of resistance?

Speaking at the Reagan National Defense Forum in California, Austin said that six days after the Hamas attack on October 7, “I flew to Israel to underscore our solidarity and our resolve—and to make it crystal-clear that America’s commitment to Israel’s security is ironclad.” “And so we have rushed US security assistance to Israel to help it defend its people and its territory—and to help ensure that Hamas can never again commit the atrocities that we saw on October 7th,” he added.

Time was when the elite media class obsessed over how many and what books presidents read. But since President Joe Biden took office, they’ve completely lost interest. Do they know something we don’t? Before Biden, the press loved to ask presidents about their favorite books. What’s on their nightstand? What are they reading on vacation? It has always been treated as a sign of intelligence. A measure of sophistication.

The EU has something called End-of-life vehicles directive, and they are looking to expand this to become so draconian that it reminds of something that would have happened in the Communist Soviet Union. A new set of criteria will be established that will decide whether you will be allowed to keep your car. If your car does not meet the criteria, the EU will seize your car and scrap it.
