Here's your friendly reminder that, according to The US Department of Labor, "the percent of wage and salary workers who were members of unions was 9.9% in 2024"

Would you have guessed that based on how our legislators act?

@Teamsters @HawleyMO @SenBooker @berniemoreno Ohio merit shops will not forget this. We rallied for you, we donated to you, we elected you and we will not forget how quickly you forgot us.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence though that every video is directed the same, and written the same, and edited the same...

Apoorva Ramaswamy, Whitney, me, and Vivek Ramaswamy following breakfast this morning, during which Vivek talked about what it will take to make Ohio what it once was, the hub of innovation and prosperity - "the lab for the country that showed the rest of the nation what was possible."
One Ohio lawmaker told me, "That was a speech to say 'I'm running for governor' if I've ever heard one."

NEW: Chaos breaks out after police block the entrance to South Korean parliament following President Yoon’s declaration of martial law.

Special forces were reportedly seen entering the building.

Martial law commander Park An-su released the following statement:

All political activities are banned in South Korea following the imposition of martial law on Tuesday and all media will be subject to government monitoring.

All political activities, including those of the national assembly, local councils, political parties, and political associations, as well as assemblies and demonstrations, are strictly prohibited.

All media and publications shall be subject to the control of the martial law command.

This could either end up being nothing or the start of something much bigger. Hopefully it's the first one

NEW: South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declares emergency martial law, accusing the opposition party of “sympathizing with North Korea and of anti-state activities.” (CNN)

“Through this martial law, I will rebuild and protect the free Republic of Korea, which is falling into the depths of national ruin.”

“I will eliminate anti-state forces as quickly as possible and normalize the country.”

He asked people to believe him and tolerate “some inconveniences.”

🚨 Skilled Trades Alert 🚨

The U.S. faces a huge shortage:

for every 1 new skilled tradesperson, there are 20 job openings.

Gen Z is stepping up, with 55% now considering careers in trades—a 12% increase from last year.

Still not enough, but every person counts.

Let’s bridge the gap and build a stronger future together!
