Labor Radio speaks to a Wisconsin union member who is in Minnesota and who runs down the situation there, interviews a UFCW member grocery worker on the organizing and union solidarity that contributed to the Minnesota general strike against federal terror, and reports on solidarity actions in Madison. New York's largest nurses strike continues, a federal judge rules against the Trump administration for targeting union TSA workers for firing despite the end of the government shutdown, and the heavily unionized Nordic countries react to Trump's promise to conquer Greenland.
