Text the Unruly Hotline HereThis week, we have an episode all about the Trump administration's attack on federal workers and how people are mobilizing to fight back. We feature an interview with two prominent organizers with the Federal Unionist Network: Paul Osadebe and Chris Dols. Paul Osadebe is a former Civil Rights attorney from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. He’s a union steward with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) and an organizer with the Federal Unionist Network. Chris Dols is a former cost engineer and district value officer at the US Army Corps of Engineers. He was also the president of IFPTE Local 98 from 2021 until this year. He’s currently the executive director of the Federal Unionist Network. Also, we also hear an excerpt of Chenjerai’s live interview with US Representative Summer Lee from Western Pennsylvania. As she seeks reelection, she discusses why history matters in this moment of rising fascism. Listen to the full conversation on the Unruly Patreon page.
