Seen some viral tweets suggesting Pete Buttigieg single handedly resolved the port strike. Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su, a woman with less visibility, was at union HQ all day yesterday working on this, just not on TV. The ILA’s president called Su ‘terrific.’ Just fyi!

Tim Walz, speaking to union firefighters: "As a union member, our union halls are the purest form of democracy. The opportunity to speak your mind, elect leadership, speak what you want on your platform, and then ... go advocate for it. That's how democracy's supposed to work."
