Jay in Kyiv

#russian A-50U long-range radar detection #aircraft spotted in the air for the first time in a long time.

The russian federation uses such aircraft to control and direct #strikes on Ukraine with missiles from strategic #aviation.

#russia now enabling its full force of #missile launching abilities now that #Ukraine has lost the #intelligence that kept #russians limited for the past year.

#Trump will be directly responsible for many thousands of #deaths.

@emptywheel.bsky.social I would love to see federal worker #labor action modeled after successful transit #strikes, where the workers still provided the services, but didn't bother to collect fares: customers ride for free! Where federal workers collect fees from the public - they don't bother. The National Parks and monuments - free admission. Campgrounds - free. Postal services - free. Not bloody likely, but imagine Border Patrol/Customs/Immigration just waking folks through.

After 46 days on the picket line, nurses walked back into eight #Providence hospitals across #Oregon in good spirits after ratifying a new contract with their employer February 26. Their effort was bolstered by striking doctors, nurse practitioners at Providence St. Vincent’s, and doctors, nurses, and midwives at the Providence Women’s Clinics.

Labor Notes · Oregon Nurses End 46-Day Strike with Pay and Staffing AgreementsAfter 46 days on the picket line, nurses walked back into eight Providence hospitals across Oregon in good spirits after ratifying a new contract with their employer February 26. Their effort was bolstered by striking doctors, nurse practitioners, and other hospitalists at Providence St. Vincent’s, and doctors, nurses, and midwives at the Providence Women’s Clinics. The agreements for the 5,000 nurses, who are represented by Oregon Nurses Association (ONA), include improvements in staffing language, pay raises, and pay for missed meals or breaks during a shift.

Good idea: organize strikes and join a union

unionfacts.com/cuf/ (for USA)

etuc.org/en (for Europe)

Boycotts without a clear target or specific demands and no previous long-term organizing don't usually work. We hold the power as workers, not so much as consumers. Our power lays in collectively withholding our labour not our money.

Labor Notes · Two Unions Strike the University of CaliforniaPicket lines formed across California Wednesday as 20,000 health care, research, and technical workers in UPTE (Communications Workers Local 9119) and 37,000 patient care workers in AFSCME Local 3299 walked out on short strikes across the University of California system. AFSCME will stay out for two days, UPTE for three. Both unions are charging that the university system is engaged in unfair labor practices. They have been working under an expired contract since October. The workers struck in November, too.
