It’s something, but will the union demand their members to strike? I mean, that’s the most (only) meaningful action a Union can do; it’s sort of what they’re for, right? Right?
It’s a felony for federal workers to strike. Kinda makes you wonder why federal employees even have unions, but that’s the capitalist hellscape we live in…
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Felony, in a lawless land? Break your chains.
Massive American unions usually have anti-strike clauses (in this case it’s actually a law), so they will never be able to go that far. Outside organizations would need to organize wildcat strikes of those workers instead. I would say a good strong union even with a clause could still prep their members to respond to a strike call though, they just can’t legally do it themselves

“Our demand is clear: Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who was responsible for carrying out the policy that led to Alex’s needless killing, and Deputy White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, the architect of that policy, must resign immediately. If they refuse, President Trump must dismiss them," AFGE National President Everett Kelley said in a statement.
“Public reporting has established that Mr. Miller is the driving force behind the administration’s harsh immigration agenda," he continued. “He personally directed its implementation and used high-pressure tactics to force compliance across the federal government. These were not abstract policy choices. They were imposed from the top and enforced without regard for the consequences.”
An early start on the Good German myth then.
A prerequisite for being a good German is to do nothing to resist, this is at least something.
Part of the myth is the “clean Wehrmacht” myth, in which it was falsely claimed that the regular military weren’t involved in war crimes and crimes against humanity, they were just soldiers following orders, and that they would have been shot if they hadn’t participated. Complete bullshit of course, but the Western Allies didn’t want to have to occupy Germany indefinitely and they needed a force to take over.
This isn’t resistance, this is just laying out groundwork for when the trials happen.
Yeah, except the clean Wehrmacht myth was also primarily about pardoning generals and officers, not protecting rank and file soldiers.
Miller getting removed is a wet dream
Or else what?
