Cute frogs vs. armed police. How inflatable costumes are changing the narrative around U.S. protests | CBC Radio

Whether it’s the ongoing anti-ICE protests in Portland and Los Angeles, or the massive No Kings rallies that swept across the U.S. this weekend, the crowds are full of cutesy, cartoonish and colourful frogs, chickens, lobsters, dinosaurs, axolotls, unicorns and more.

Yet, the Teamster's chief sees no reason to endorse either party.

How much did he get paid? Or does he think that 160-hour work months are better for his Union members?

@GottaLaff, I am so confused! There are about 1.5 million #teamster members nationwide. National Teamster doesn't want to endorse #Harris, yet we now have 1 million Teamster members endorsing Harris. Hmm... Maybe if these endorsing members are from swing states, we are better off. Do you have any data?

Moore said he talks to his #Michigan members regularly & there's "no room for Donald #Trump in the #Teamster world in the state of Michigan."

In announcing its endorsement, Michigan Teamsters Joint Council No. 43, the statewide #union, referenced #KamalaHarris' support for the labor movement, for expanding #HealthCare #access & for protecting #workers' #retirements.

“In 2020, I was on the verge of losing my pension. Every single Repub. Senator opposed the Butch Lewis Emergency Pension Relief Act.

The election of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff with strong #Teamster support saved my pension and the retirement of over 400,000 Teamsters…

Republicans have spread “right to work” like a cancer, backed NAFTA and job-killing so-called “free trade” deals, and gutted workers rights.”
