Michael Franzese weighed in on rumors surrounding Harold Daggett, the union boss leading the ALA port strike. Daggett has been accused of threatening a nationwide halt to port operations, with critics pointing to his luxurious lifestyle as a point of contention. DJ Vlad mentioned alleged ties between Daggett and the Genovese Mafia. Franzese expressed skepticism toward dismissing such claims, noting the Mafia’s historical union ties. Daggett was previously indicted but acquitted on similar allegations.
Franzese criticized Daggett’s approach, emphasizing that his threats only add to the country’s hardships. Vlad and Franzese also discussed the union's demands against automation at ports, viewing it as impractical in today's technological age. They likened it to earlier technological shifts, such as the move from toll collectors to electronic systems. The conversation touched on broader issues around resistance to technological change, particularly in the context of the pandemic-induced remote work trend, signaling a complex intersection of labor rights and technological advancement.
