“White House has said it will not intervene in a dock worker strike, and is encouraging the two sides to get back to the negotiating table.”

Dr Jill is on this. No worries.

Am sure if it looks like Kam is losing, many things will happen to misdirect the election by the Dems.

I was ILWU for five years - had to join for a summer job. My local was in Bellingham, WA I think...the work was at a cannery in Alaska.

Disgusting President of the local went out for a cup of coffee and while out of the office an unemployed ILWU worker (paid I think $10,000 by the missing Pres.) came in and shot everyone to death...

My union dues at work — this was in the very late 80’s.

BS. A strike means no importing foreign made goods. THAT IS A GOOD THING!!! Even for just one day.

East Coast Longshoremen’s Union, traditionally mobbed up. The West Coast Union, dominated by commies every since Harry Bridges was around.

Awareness ping - Possible Dock worker strike on the Eastern seaboard and Gulf coast may occur on October 1st
(From the article) :"A looming dock worker strike could throw the economy — and the presidential election — into chaos, an October surprise that would likely hurt Democrats."
Also supply chain problems might exist for the upcoming holiday season.

"The International Longshoremen’s Association, which represents about 85,000 dock workers nationwide, is threatening to strike on October 1 , (Emphasis Mine)
if the union cannot reach an agreement with port ownership.
Negotiations broke down in June between the union and the United States Maritime Alliance, which represents port management.
The two sides are in a stalemate over both wages and the automation of port operations.

"A strike would shut down five of North America’s 10 busiest ports, 36 ports total along the East and Gulf Coasts, and cause massive supply chain issues
— which, depending on how long the strike lasts, could impact consumers past Election Day and well into the holiday season.
If the supply chain is upended like this causing scarcities, we are also likely to see another nasty bout of inflation
just as families are trying to recover from the nearly 20% spike in prices since before the pandemic."

"The Biden administration has the power to stop strikes that could threaten national security or severely impact the economy.
But the White House has said it will not intervene in a dock worker strike, and is encouraging the two sides to get back to the negotiating table."

"The global economic turmoil wrought by a strike of this size cannot be understated."

(My Opinion) : Maybe we should ask _resident Jill to intercede on our behalf,
as the President seems to be missing in action, and has yielded authority elsewhere

Joe just had to toss them into a 90 day cool down period. This won’t happen going into the election.
