I don’t know shite about unions, but Pres has said he’ll fire anyone who says they want unionize since yesterday.

AOC has now entered the chat and Pres has challenged her to a debate.

Sounds like AOC might have a point though, but I don't know much about NY laws.

This is Poli board, not MSB though.

As we’ve seen time and time again, AOC won’t debate anyone. She prefers scripted softball interviews and puff pieces on her struggle as a minority woman in power

Portnoy is just trolling and catching a lot of fish with a simple hook

Unions has outlived their purpose and have only served to bankrupt companies and municipalities for the past 50 plus years.

But I don't think what he said he will do is actually legal.

Yeah, wasn’t sure where to put it. A lot of Barstool threads have been made here so that’s why I put it here. If it needs to be moved then go for it mods.

Saw a headline yesterday saying the staff of The Ringer have decided to unionize. Now it's a waiting game to see how Simmons responds.

True, but if (and it's a big if because it's taking AOCs word to be true) the threat is illegal, he could be in trouble.

He could probably successfully claim satire though because he has his persona.

I think you also need one of the employees to file a complaint before they can do anything either way which isn’t happening because they all know it’s a bit

I’m assuming it’s a troll and AOC is just biting on the flashy hook.

That's what I figured, and she's not in on the joke.

I dont even think he can make any threat like this, sincere or not. But I may be wrong

Since Big Cat already tweeted a screen shot of a non union related DM to that account and Dave responded, this would seem the likely outcome.

Portnoy is a tool but I’m thinking he was trolling because that’s what Barstool is.

They’ve all been replying to all the tweets making jokes and shite and playing it up to keep it going for content.

Big Cat DM’d the lawyer madden codes
