    That didn't really take long. Amazing what faced with the prospect of re-election and funding a campaign can do to a person.

    I have no idea what you are talking about.

    AS usual, there is missing context, so it seems.
    What did the squad do?

    Try reading the tweet. Here it is.

    The performativeness of AOC/the Squad is very insidious, in that millions of her followers are seeing this post believing she actually stands with workers without realizing she just voted to crush the strike.

    The last time we stood with @Teamsters Local 202, we stared down a national food crisis over resistance to a $1 raise.

    Back then, railroad workers stood with us. They turned trains around to not cross a picket line.

    We won then, and we can win now.
    Let’s get these sick days 💪🏽

    i never read anywhere that she voted to quash the strike. Is this actually true?
    I would think it would be big news and covered on FOX.
