Military Deploys In Moscow As Wagner Chief Sought For ‘Armed Mutiny’

There are now widespread reports and circulating footage of additional armored vehicles deployed by military police units in key parts of Russia, including in Moscow and Rostov regions, with TASS saying they have been ordered to protect government buildings, as speculation that Wagner’s Prigozhin is making real moves against Russian leadership tonight.

The Washington Post is meanwhile recapping the following of reports that authorities are seeking his arrest:

Russia’s Federal Security Service late Friday announced a criminal case against Wagner mercenary chief Yevgeniy Prigozhin, accusing him of “incitement to armed rebellion” after he declared an open conflict with Russia’s military leadership and called on Russians to join 25,000 Wagner fighters against Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and other top commanders.

Starbucks union says workers at more than 150 stores will strike over Pride decor

  • Some organized Starbucks stores will strike across the U.S. at more than 150 locations starting Friday in Seattle, after the union representing baristas claimed some cafes were not allowed to put up Pride decorations.
  • The coffee giant said its policy on decorating has not changed and that it unwaveringly supports the LGBTQ+ community.
  • Workers United has alleged instances in at least 22 states when workers have not been able to decorate. It says it filed an unfair labor practice charge over the alleged change in policy

LOS ANGELES, CA - JUNE 12: Marchers with Starbucks pass through the landmark intersection of Hollywood and Highland during the annual Pride Parade on June 12, 2022 in the Hollywood section of Los Angeles, California. After a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Los Angeles Pride Parade has abandoned its historic route through West Hollywood for a new one through Hollywood. The event was first held on June 28, 1970, exactly one year after the historic Stonewall Rebellion in New York City. (Pho

Some organized Starbucks stores will strike across the U.S. starting Friday in Seattle after the coffee giant and the union representing baristas publicly clashed over claims that the company was not allowing Pride month decor in cafes.

The union, Starbucks Workers United, said more than 150 stores representing nearly 3,500 workers have pledged to join the strikes, which will take place over the next week. More than two dozen additional stores are voting on strike authorizations and the count could rise to nearly 200 stores by the end of the week, the union said.

Last week, the union alleged dozens of U.S. stores were not allowing employees to decorate for Pride month, accusations that suggested a wave of backlash against LGBTQ+ inclusion had reached a perceived liberal bastion in corporate America. Starbucks said it had not revised its guidelines for store decorations.

“There has been no change to any policy on this matter and we continue to encourage our store leaders to celebrate with their communities including for U.S. Pride month in June,” the company said last week, adding that it unwaveringly supports the LGBTQ+ community. Local store leaders and employees can make their own decorating decisions within guidelines laid out in the company’s security and safety manuals.

In response to the strike pledges, the company added, “Workers United continues to spread false information about our benefits, policies and negotiation efforts—a tactic used to seemingly divide our partners and deflect from their failure to respond to bargaining sessions for more than 200 stores.”
