(DETROIT, MICHIGAN) - The United Auto Workers (UAW) have filed Federal Labor Charges against disgraced billionaires Donald Trump and Elon Musk for their illegal attempts to threaten and intimidate Workers who stand up for themselves by engaging in protected concerted activity, such as Strikes. 

After significant technical delays on X, formerly known as Twitter, Trump and Musk had a rambling, disorganized conversation on Monday evening (August 12th) in front of more than one million listeners in which they advocated for the illegal firing of striking Workers. 

“I mean, I look at what you do,” Trump told Musk. “You walk in, you say, you want to quit? They go on Strike, I won’t mention the name of the company, but they go on Strike and you say, that’s OK, you’re all gone.  You’re all gone.  So, every one of you is gone.” 

Under Federal Law, Workers cannot be fired for going on Strike - and threatening to do so is illegal under the National Labor Relations Act. 

UAW President Shawn Fain said: “When we say Donald Trump is a scab, this is what we mean. When we say Trump stands against everything our Union stands for, this is what we mean.  Donald Trump will always side against Workers standing up for themselves and he will always side with billionaires like Elon Musk, who is contributing ($45 million) a month to a Super PAC to get him elected.  Both Trump and Musk want Working Class People to sit down and shut up and they laugh about it openly.  It’s disgusting, illegal, and totally predictable from these two clowns.”
