Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson boldly called for Americans to stage a general strike
during his speech at his city’s
‘No Kings’ rally on Saturday.

Summoning people of all backgrounds to unite and take a stand against
Donald Trump’s “tyranny,”
the “ultra-wealthy”
and corporate greed,
Johnson said,

“We are going to make them pay their fair share in taxes to fund our school, to fund jobs, to fund healthcare, to fund transportation"

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson Ups The Ante As He Calls For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Yes!!

Trump and his oligarch backers are never going to yield control willingly.

It will take a rolling series of #GeneralStrikes to get the oligarchs to break with Trump.

🤞 the Chicago mayor is just the first to call for a #GeneralStrike
