“This week, we were excited to talk to organizer, author, and one of the most important labor voices on the left, Jane McAlevey. She explained why there’s no substitute for the power to withhold labor, why more organizing must precede calls for general strikes, and why celebrating Manchin’s PRO Act cosponsorship may be a strategic mistake if not tied to calls for filibuster reform.”

“Facebook was justified in banning then-President Donald Trump from its platform the day after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, but it needs to reassess how long the ban will remain in effect, the social network’s quasi-independent Oversight Board said Wednesday.

The decision to uphold the ban is a blow to Trump’s hopes to post again to Facebook or Instagram anytime soon, but it opens the door to him eventually returning to the platforms. Facebook must complete a review of the length of the suspension within six months, the board said.

“Given the seriousness of the violations and the ongoing risk of violence, Facebook was justified in suspending Mr. Trump’s accounts on January 6 and extending that suspension on January 7,” the board said in its decision.
