Alexey Navalny formed a labor union of prisoners in the Russian prison work camp,

He formed a labor union of prisoners in the Russian prison work camp, then demanded better working conditions. Wild thread. And here, we have politicians who cower in fear afraid that Trump might get mad at them.

@navalny
2/23 But so far my only punishment is the special commission issuing me a reprimand every day. I’ve also been officially "warned" against committing the crime.
All I did was form a labor union of convicts and prison workers. Seriously. And we have already achieved some victories
