    Biden worked with Sanders and gave the railroad workers everything they asked for

    Categorically false. The NLRB worked with the unions to achieve SOME of their completely reasonable asks but not all and nowhere near as much as they could have gotten if Biden hadn’t told Congress to take away their most effective weapon and force them to fight with one hand behind their backs.

    It just didn’t make headlines because it happened like a week after the media decided to move onto something else.

    It made it into the body of countless propaganda articles giving Biden undue credit for the work of the NLRB and not giving him the blame he’s due for taking away their right to strike, though.

    For all his “middle class Joe” posturing, when push comes to shove he’s on the side of the rich people and industries handing out legal bribes to him and his buddies every time.
