All this because @bdomenech made a JOKE about sending his employees “back to the salt mine” if they tried to unionize. Not one employee or contributor to @FDRLST complained. WE ALL KNEW IT WAS A JOKE. @MattBruenig did too, but he filed a lawsuit anyways.
Now, taxpayers (myself included) are funding a multi-thousand dollar lawsuit to sue @FDRLST WHEN NO ONE COMPLAINED. Want to know the truth? This lawsuit could actually HURT FDRST employees and contributors bc @bdomenech now has to spend $$ defending himself and his publication.
