This: It has been remarkable to watch how doctors in Gaza have become the "first drafts of history" so to speak, instead of journalists.

Big news for these local journalists. 90% of members participated in the strike authorization vote.
In the first authorization for an open-ended strike ever taken by journalists at a newsroom owned by the secretive Alden Global Capital, the Southern California News Group union today announced its members have voted overwhelmingly in favor of striking.

Teamsters just released internal polling on membership's feelings toward the presidential race.
In a nutshell: Members backed Biden over Trump until Biden left the race. Then they backed Trump over Harris and it's stayed that way.
Endorsement, or non-endorsement, expected today
