JUST IN: Border Patrol gets run out a barber shop by Dominican guy who opens his phone and goes live on his ass in Charlotte, North Carolina.

This distribution center is Starbucks’ largest on the East Coast, which is why we’re showing up to send a message. We're ready to continue escalating our ULP strike until Starbucks does the right thing.
