    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 17 11:34:06 2025
    Michael Bloomberg's guest podcasters, Sarah Holder and David Fox on
    whether Donald Trump will order Kristi Noem to order DHS.GOV to ask
    Big Tech Bros to deplatform the legacy American proles co-opting
    their websites to spew malinformation about the Cheap Labor Lobby: <URL:https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2025-02-14/elon-musk-s-tesla-spacex-relied-on-undocumented-immigrant-workers>
    | Holder: This is where Cristy worked, the cleaner you heard from at
    | the top of the episode. She had been hired by a Tesla subcontractor.
    | After she fainted from heat stroke on the job, she says she had a
    | dispute with her supervisor about the incident and was fired. Cristy
    | eventually filed a pair of complaints with OSHA, the Occupational
    | Safety and Health Administration, accusing the Tesla subcontractor
    | of unsafe working conditions and retaliation. She's being
    | represented by the Workers Defense Project, a Texas nonprofit that
    | advocates for immigrant laborers. Cristy was one of nine current and
    | former undocumented workers at the Gigafactory who Julia spoke to.
    | Julia also spoke with one undocumented worker who helped build a
    | SpaceX factory outside of Austin.
