Last act of the Kabuki.
Bill Ford poormouthing was the 1st hint of the end coming soon, hitting all 3 big truck plants was the confirmation. The others will gripe and fall in line. Wall Street will cheer about holding the line on pensions and 40 hours...
Shawn Fain will keep his job for as long as he wants it and stays clean.

Enough is enough! For an all-out strike of all #BigThree autoworkers! - World Socialist Web Site
Workers must mobilize against #Unifor’s sham ratification at #FordCanada! For a revote controlled by the rank and file! - World Socialist Web Site
The revelation that the Unifor bureaucracy violated its own constitution by declaring its sellout contract with Ford Canada ratified despite the opposition of skilled trades workers underscores that autoworkers must urgently seize control of their contract struggle from the union apparatus.

“Everybody in the Big 3 should shut down”: Striking Michigan autoworkers call for expansion of walkout | Updates on the #BigThree #autoworkers struggle - World Socialist Web Site
The rejection is a rebuke to both Mack Trucks and the UAW apparatus, which conspired behind workers’ backs and sought to push the agreement through to avoid a strike in the critical trucking industry.
Biden announces trip to Michigan amid #autoworker demands for all-out strike - World Socialist Web Site
President Biden announced on Friday a plan to “join the picket line” on Tuesday in Michigan as part of arrangements with the UAW bureaucracy to contain the growing struggle of autoworkers against the UAW’s refusal to call all 150,000 members onto the picket lines.
No accident that #Ford is on a faster walk towards giving the #UAW what they've asked for, or at least most of it. The Family still holds a substantial chunk of the company and they are the definition of long-term investors who consider their fates bound to the fate of the company, rather than just being owners of equity shares in a corporation. Bill Ford at the top helps too. #GM and #Stellantis managers have to look more resistant.
