UAW Files Labor Complaint Against Trump, Musk

The United Auto Workers (UAW) union has filed federal labor charges against former President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk following comments made during a live interview on the social media platform X. During the conversation, Trump praised Musk's approach to dealing with striking workers, suggesting that Musk would simply fire them, which is illegal under federal labor laws. UAW President Shawn Fain condemned the comments as worker intimidation and aligned the union's support behind Vice President Kamala Harris, highlighting the ongoing tension between the union and both Trump and Musk. Musk's past clashes with unions and legal issues regarding labor practices were also noted. The UAW's actions are part of a broader effort to rally union support against Trump in key battleground states for the upcoming election.
