Labor Board: 'Scabby the Rat Is a Really Big Cheese'
President Joe Biden can start saying, “I’m the guy who saved Scabby The Rat,” now that the National Labor Relations Board has shot down right-wing efforts to permanently deflate one of organized labor’s most valuable tools.
On Wednesday, the NLRB — led by Biden-appointed Lauren McFerran — issued a 3-1 decision upholding the right of unions to deploy the large balloon in ongoing labor disputes.
Biden fired former NLRB head Peter Robb on his first day in office and subsequently replaced him with McFerran. Robb, the infamous union-busting lawyer who helped President Ronald Reagan crush the air traffic controllers’ union in 1981, was a Donald Trump darling who had long harbored a deep-seated hatred toward Scabby The Rat. Robb was itching to eradicate him as soon as possible.
