Chuck Templeton is an ex-operator, including founding OpenTable and serving as lead investor and operating Chairman in companies such as Grubhub and Venmo (Braintree Payment Systems). He is focused on helping the S2G team, entrepreneurs, and executives take their ideas, validate them, institutionalize processes, and ultimately scale their business innovations to address today's urgent environmental and societal problems.S2G is a multi-stage investment firm with $2.5B under management and 100+ portfolio companies. They focus on venture and growth-stage businesses across food and agriculture, oceans, and energy. With a commitment to creating long-term, measurable outcomes, S2G structures flexible capital solutions that can range from venture funding through growth equity to debt and infrastructure financing.–Here are 6 topics we covered in the podcast:1. S2G's Investment PhilosophyChuck Templeton debunks the myth that impact means weak returns—S2G invests where sustainability and strong financials align. Their focus spans food, ag, energy, and oceans, which together drive 90% of global emissions.2. Why Food & Ag Is UndervaluedFood systems cause one-third of emissions but get just ~4% of climate capital. Chuck sees massive upside in climate-friendly, great-tasting, and healthier food products.3. How S2G Operates DifferentlyThey invest $20M–$50M per deal, with dedicated teams per sector and an in-house acceleration platform that supports hiring, growth, and commercialization. Their capital stack includes both equity and flexible credit options.4. What Founders MissToo many founders obsess over tech and forget commercialization. S2G backs companies with $10M+ revenue, clear product-market fit, and capital discipline.5. Flashfood & Sunday: Climate by StealthFlashfood cuts grocery waste while saving consumers money; Sunday makes lawn care safer and easier for families. In both cases, climate benefits are real—but come after convenience, cost, and safety.6. Chuck's Personal FuelInspired by fatherhood and minimalism, Chuck shifted to climate after OpenTable and Venmo. Running, stoicism, and a love for leadership learning keep him grounded—plus, he's big on “raising your hand” to lead.--

DoorDash, le géant américain de la livraison de repas, multiplie les manœuvres pour consolider sa position internationale. Dernier coup en date : une proposition de 3,1 milliards d'euros pour racheter Deliveroo, l'entreprise britannique bien implantée en Europe. Cette opération, révélée dimanche par Les Échos, permettrait à DoorDash d'accroître significativement sa présence sur le Vieux Continent.Fondée en 2012 à San Francisco par Tony Xu et trois associés, DoorDash est aujourd'hui le leader incontesté du secteur aux États-Unis avec 67 % de part de marché, loin devant ses concurrents Uber Eats et Grubhub. Cotée au Nasdaq depuis décembre 2020, l'entreprise a généré 10,7 milliards de dollars de chiffre d'affaires en 2024, en hausse de 24 % sur un an.Mais DoorDash ne se contente plus de livrer des repas. La plateforme californienne a élargi son champ d'action à la livraison de courses alimentaires, boissons alcoolisées et produits de grande consommation. Cette diversification, entamée il y a plusieurs années, s'est accélérée avec le rachat en 2021 de la start-up finlandaise Wolt pour 7 milliards d'euros, ce qui a permis à DoorDash d'étendre sa couverture à plus de 30 pays, notamment en Europe du Nord et de l'Est.La tentative d'absorption de Deliveroo s'inscrit pleinement dans cette stratégie. Déjà, en 2024, DoorDash avait exprimé son intérêt, mais les négociations avaient échoué sur des désaccords d'évaluation. Cette fois, Deliveroo reste prudent. Dans un communiqué, la société indique qu'« il n'y a aucune certitude qu'une offre ferme soit faite » et recommande à ses actionnaires de ne prendre « aucune mesure à ce stade ». DoorDash a jusqu'au 23 mai pour formaliser sa proposition.L'acquisition permettrait à DoorDash de se renforcer dans des marchés stratégiques, comme le Royaume-Uni, la France, l'Italie ou encore les Pays-Bas, où Deliveroo dispose d'une implantation solide.Toutefois, cette expansion ne se fait pas sans heurts. En 2025, Uber a déposé plainte contre DoorDash pour pratiques anticoncurrentielles, l'accusant d'imposer des clauses d'exclusivité à certains restaurants pour empêcher toute concurrence. DoorDash a rejeté ces accusations, affirmant que ses relations avec les restaurateurs reposent sur la qualité de ses services et leur propre préférence.L'avenir dira si cette offensive sur Deliveroo se concrétisera, mais une chose est sûre : DoorDash compte bien devenir un acteur incontournable du commerce local, bien au-delà des repas livrés à domicile.

Al wekenlang jaagt de FBI op Tesla terroristen, mensen die Tesla's in de brand steken. Maar de échte terreur vindt plaats in de financiën van het bedrijf. Het eerste kwartaal was ronduit dramatisch. Topman Elon Musk geeft daarbij toe dat hij de reden is.Deze aflevering hebben we het over de onmogelijke positie van Tesla. Het blijft afhankelijk van een topman die toch bij blijft klussen voor de Amerikaanse president. Een president die tarieven oplegt waar Tesla dan weer enorme last van heeft.We kijken of Musk een list weet te verzinnen. Hoe (en vooral waar) kan hij meer Tesla's verkopen, met betere marges? Tesla drijft nu alleen nog maar op de verkoop van emissierechten...Verder hebben we het over héél veel kwartaalcijfers van eigen bodem. AkzoNobel, Randstad, Just Eat Takeaway en Besi komen voorbij. Vooral die laatste is interessant. Het aandeel stond even 11,5 procent in de plus, maar de koers stortte daarna als een kaartenhuis in elkaar. We onderzoeken waar de angst van beleggers vandaan komt. We vertellen je ook meer over boekhouding en personeelszaken. Saai? Nee! Het bedrijf dat zich daarmee bezighoudt is het meest waardevolle beursbedrijf van Europa.

The Boston City Council is toying with the idea of a new food delivery tax, that's part of the city's efforts to crackdown on food-app delivery drivers and their “dangerous” and at times “unlawful” driving. The Council is weighing an amendment to Boston Mayor Wu's “road safety and accountability for delivery providers ordinance” that would add a 15-cent delivery fee per order for national third-party food delivery companies like Uber Eats, Grubhub, and others that operate in Boston. Opponents of the measure fear the tax would hurt consumers and restaurants. *The MA Restaurant Association declined our invitation to join. & Boston City Councilor Sharon Durkan did not return our request to join.*Listen to WBZ NewsRadio on the NEW iHeart Radio app and be sure to set WBZ NewsRadio as your #1 preset!

Food & Fees goes hand and hand when it comes to food delivery apps. Apps such as Doordash, Grubhub, UBer Eats......Does it say more about them overcharging or are we too lazy to pick it up and are willing to pay the fees. Also tipping culture, out of hand or out the window?

In the latest edition of Omni Talk's Retail Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Mirakl, Simbe, Infios and Ocampo Capital Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga discuss how Wonder has scooped up Tastemade for $90 million as part of its grand plan to become the super app of mealtime.

Lawmakers are debating a new tax on food delivery services. Since the pandemic, one of the industries that really boomed has to be food delivery services like Ubereats, DoorDash and GrubHub. And while those collected taxes would reportedly go directly to the Special Transportation Fund, it would heavily impact the hospitality industry in a bad way. Scott Dolch of the CT Restaurant Association shared the downside of this bill if it passes. Image Credit: Getty Images

The food-delivery company's VP of brand discusses the business' 20-year history and how it stays front of mind for consumers.Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian: I'm Damian FowlerIlyse: And I'm Ilyse Liffreing. Damian: And welcome to this edition of The Current Podcast.Ilyse: This week, we're delighted to talk with Marnie Kain, the VP of Brand and Creative at Grubhub.Damian: Grubhub recently celebrated its 20th anniversary. It was founded in Chicago in 2004, and it was the pioneer food delivery service. A forerunner to the booming e commerce delivery sector.Ilyse: Two decades on, the business has scaled. It now has a 375, 000 restaurant partners in over 4, 000 U.S. cities.Damian: Marnie joined the company in September 2023, just as it was planning its big birthday celebrations.Ilyse: So Marnie, can you tell us about the challenge of marketing this brand, having joined just Grubhub in 2023?Marnie: Well it was a very easy decision to make to go to Grubhub. I had spent a number of decades on the [00:01:00] agency side, working with clients across many different categories. And one thing I learned is that it's really fun to work in a category that you enjoy. And who doesn't love food and the delight and joy of delivery that it brings?So I was able to really unmask my experience across many sectors like CPG, mass retail, QSR, casual dining, health and wellness. travel and so on and really bring that expertise and experience to the table to solve some really interesting challenges in a very crowded landscape.Ilyse: Now, it is interesting with your background because, like you said, you've been across agencies for a long time. What would you say is the differentiating factor being brand side now?Marnie: Well, being brand side you definitely have greater visibility to the complexities of the business. I think you [00:02:00] believe you understand that when you're on the agency side, but what you have visibility to is far less than what really goes on. And it is challenging to sell things in across the organization because there are many stakeholders, cross functional decision making and priorities that aren't necessarily brand marketing.Ilyse: Now let's talk about Grubhub's marketing strategy a little. So the delivery service sector has become quite competitive as you know. As all consumers know, we have lots of choices. How do you think about differentiating Grubhub in this space and maintaining that market shareMarnie: We really look at it from a consumer standpoint and what's meaningful and relevant to our customers. What conveniences do they need? What are their pain points? What categories do they need delivery from? So we're [00:03:00] expanding even beyond restaurants into categories like grocery, convenience, and others that will soon come. So it's really about being in service of the customer and their needs.As far as what is differentiating about us, it's really about tapping into and building upon what they see as valuable. So one of the biggest ways that we're offering value, outside of just everyday value that are always available on the app, are through partnerships like the one we have with Amazon.Ilyse: Maybe you could tell us a little bit more about the partnership. Andhow Grubhub really works with brands and what platforms it chooses when it comes to those types of partnerships.Marnie: Well, Amazon is a great example of really understanding what's important to consumers. Obviously, Amazon delivers pretty much everything, but what they [00:04:00] don't deliver is food from restaurants. And so the synergy between the two delivery giants is quite clear. The opportunity was to really bring added value to Amazon Prime customers, and that is what we've done. So our Amazon partnership initially launched before my time in 22 and, what you would get as an Amazon Prime member is the ability to get one year of Grubhub Plus for free, which is our membership service that essentially provides $0 delivery fees which is our premier benefit, additionally $5 cash back on pickup orders, priority delivery and other exclusive offers.This past May, we built on the initial success and really deepened that partnership to bring added value to consumers and greater sales for our restaurant partners by making the benefits ongoing to [00:05:00] Amazon subscribers. So Prime members get - as long as they're a Prime member - $0 delivery on Grubhub. Additionally, what's really unique, is that you can shop on Amazon for Grubhub. There's actually a tile on the grocery tab that you can go through and actually link your Grubhub account, get your $0 delivery benefit and start shopping, straight within the Amazon app.Ilyse: I really didn't know that.Damian: That must really help you, in terms of partnerships like that must be a big help in terms of scaling.Marnie: It really is. We started, as early days for Grubhub, we were really looking to help restaurants scale. 20 years ago, restaurants delivered their menus by putting them in mailboxes in the neighborhood and also keeping them available outside of their restaurants. And that was their scale. Now they have access to so many consumers [00:06:00] through Grubhub which originally was a tech powered menu aggregator and ultimately a tech powered order system for restaurants.Today, it's really a three-sided business model where we service restaurants and continue to help them scale, but we also support a very large driver community that makes a living working for Grubhub as well as bringing new conveniences every day to consumers.Damian: Let's talk about that a little bit. You mentioned that how it started and you joined the company just as Grubhub was probably thinking about its 20th birthday in 2024. what was the sort of nature of the thinking around how it was going to mark this important anniversary?Marnie: I think the important thing when you consider that it was our 20th anniversary, is that, it's really all about what we can do for our customers. They are perhaps [00:07:00] interested in the fact that we've been around for a long time - we're the O. G in the category and that means we stand by our product and our reliable brand - but mostly they just want what they want, when they want it. They want value. They want to know that we have the restaurants that they're interested in. So the first thing we did was offer literally 20,000 offers to our customers, free items that they could get from restaurants like McDonald's, Popeye's, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, Panera, Taco Bell. We also offered 20 percent off several other restaurants and convenience stores, and we celebrated this under the banner of 20 years of deals because that's really what Matters to consumers and the value is something that we continue to pursue through partnerships like Amazon, where they're saving over three hundred dollars annually on [00:08:00] not paying for delivery for delivery fees on Grubhub.So when I think back to 2004, it's hard to believe some of the other things going on at that time. MySpace was the most popular social media. That's crazy. Mark Zuckerberg had just launched the Facebook at Harvard. Google was beta testing Gmail. Shake Shack opened its first and best, if you ask me, location in New York City and OutKast had the number one song, which was Hey, yeah, if that matters.Damian: I remember that.Marnie: It really is amazing how much changes in 20 years and even as a third-party delivery industry, that industry has changed so much from aggregating menus, and actually the delivery part of the business didn't even start until [00:09:00] 10 years into those 20 years.Damian: Wow. And he also started in Chicago as a local concern. And obviously you've built up a national presence since then. Can you talk a little bit about that?Marnie: Yeah, Grubhub did launch in Chicago in 2004, and it was the brainchild of the two founders and was about aggregating menus and fully in service of restaurants.it's beginnings are even technically before that because, the brand acquired the Seamless brand which started in 1999. But that acquisition happened in 2013. Each part of our evolution, we've [00:10:00] constantly been looking for new ways to bring value, to bring selection, to bring better service and speed to our customers.Ilyse: And now, what innovations do you see Grubhub making even in the near term to stay on top of like emerging trends and industry changes? Obviously, A. I. Is everywhere and I know that's one thing apps like Grubhub are looking into and experimenting with, but maybe even across creative. So I'm curious about that.Marnie: Yeah, I think that one area of excitement for us and great innovation is our campus business. So what many people don't know is that Grubhub's campus business started about six years ago with the acquisition of an Israeli based tech company called Topenia. And, today we work with more than 360 universities and, nearly 5 million students.And what's really interesting about this [00:11:00] partnership is that it's not superficial. It's not just: download the app and you be like a regular customer on our app. They actually, depending on the university, have their dining dollars go directly through Grubhub. So when you arrive at school, one of the first things you have happen at orientation is you are told to sign up for Grubhub and link your dining dollars.And One of the schools where my daughter actually goes is our flagship school, Ohio State University, and that is probably the most robust version of our campus partnership where we actually have the food from the campus restaurants and dining facilities delivered by robots, and I will tell you that it's pretty cool. The robots are available at a number of colleges and as we think about the future of the category, I think it's scratching the surface on what might be readily available as ways that we can you know [00:12:00] sort of buck the speed of, how we currently deliver in urban areas by bicycle and motorbike and, you know, in the suburbs by car.So I think, drone delivery or robot delivery could be on the horizon. I also think, creatively thinking about our different categories of delivery, we have an opportunity to create more curated and exclusive experiences. There are a lot of competitors that deliver from a lot of the categories that we deliver in, but it's really about how we combine our categories and verticals of delivery to create unique experiences that you can't find anywhere else.Damian: How important is what's going on in culture to the way you position yourself in market?Marnie: I think that culture is really driving everything and we do a tremendous amount of paid and organic social where we aim to capitalize on cultural moments. So, you know, as we see people talking about either the brand, or about [00:13:00] food, or about Charlie XCX, or whatever it is, that we can tap into and follow a meme, or join in the conversation.It's really important to be agile and to be able to get out there fast and just have a voice. It doesn't mean we necessarily have to create an entire campaign that taps into that cultural moment. But what we've learned is, it's really important to be in the conversation in order to drive relevance.It is a very crowded marketplace and there are many people spending a lot of money, many competitors, but we find that influencers are really helping us, to really speak to our customers in a moment when they're, craving food, wanting to order food and we've seen terrific engagement from the programs that we're doing as well as increased brand perceptions.And that's the other thing about partnerships, whether it be with Amazon or influencers [00:14:00] across the gamut, we really look to partner with others that help improve our brand perception and lift all boats.Damian: As you look ahead to later this year and beyond, what are the priorities for you as a brand? Is it a question of scaling, building more couriers, building more restaurants, building more consumers? What's the kind of game plan if it could look big picture?Marnie: Big picture, there's so much opportunity in this category to continue to grow, to delight consumers, and also to meet their needs.So, creating more intuitive and using AI elements of the app is really important. We have a ton of data about our consumers because they're in our ecosystem, but really leveraging that data using AI and creating more intuitive experience and more seamless experience in the app is definitely a priority.Also, as I [00:15:00] mentioned, more curated and exclusive experiences. How can we capitalize on this very unique mix of retailers essentially available on our app to create experiences that you can't find anywhere else? Partnerships is definitely a priority. How can we continue to leverage that and sort of aggregate value for customers.And finally, speed is really important and even distance of delivery because people are looking for the restaurants they love, they're looking to get them, when they want them. Ilyse: that note, with all those preferences and consumer habits that obviously leads to a lot of data that you have within the app, and you briefly mentioned, using AI to make that consumer experience a little easier on the end consumer.Can you talk about how that works with AI a little bit and perhaps maybe do you on the creative end tap that [00:16:00] data for future campaigns?Marnie: Really, we are exploring and experimenting with A. I. And we don't have the answer or the end of that story to share yet, but we all experience it on a daily basis being online and everybody's using chat GPT to write their speeches or whatever but in the case of food delivery, it really will allow us to become more intuitive, and that's really the key because people are looking for shortcuts. They're looking for brands that get them and know them and that understand their pain points and their inflection points.The other thing that we're doing, and this isn't necessarily using our own data, is finding opportunities for moments or milestones where we really can make a difference in people's lives. One example of this that you may have seen is we had launched in August of 2024, a special delivery campaign, which was targeted [00:17:00] at expectant moms, and we provided them based on their engagement and signing up their first meal after giving birth.And that was really based on the insight that as you're expecting, there's a lot of things you can't eat and you crave these things, whether they're sushi or believe it or not, deli meat,  and a lot of things that could, could cause a bacteria or, an infection for the baby. So at the point where the baby is born, the first thought is, what am I going to eat?And we were able to meet that need with a special delivery from Grubhub. So it's really about using data to get into what's important to consumers as opposed to just for data's sake.Marnie: We have a ton of data about what consumers order and actually, every December, we produce some stats about where the trends are going and even some personal stats as a [00:18:00] Grubhub Plus member that you might receive about your own ordering habits. which can be very interesting because many of our employees find out that their kids are doing most of their ordering and they get surprised quite a bit. But one of the things that really surprises me is that the most ordered convenience store drink is not Diet Coke, which a lot of people guess. Not Celsius, which a lot of people guess. Interestingly, I know, it's Dr. Pepper.Marnie: Another one I'm always am surprised by is the fastest growing pizza topping.Ilyse: Pineapple? Marnie: Bingo. Yes, pineapple is the fastest growing pizza Ilyse: Not in New York. Marnie: Those are my two favorites.Damian: I like that, yeah. You should have a Grubhub quiz. Marnie: We'll get one to you. Ilyse: Is it like a Spotify [00:19:00] wrapped kind of thing?Marnie: It's exactly like a Spotify wrapped where you can learn about what you order. and then also what America's ordering. So it, it serves as a way to tap into the cultural zeitgeist.Ilyse: Very funDamian: Alright, perfect. Thank you so much. Marnie: Thank you again for having me. Marnie: And that's it for this edition of The Current Podcast.Damian: We'll be back next week, so stay tuned.Ilyse: The Current Podcast's theme is by Love Caliber. The current team includes Kat Vesce and Sydney Cairns.Damian:  And remember, Marnie: There lot of competitors that deliver from a lot of the categories that we deliver in, but it's really about how we combine our categories and verticals of delivery to create unique experiences that you can't find anywhere else.Damian: I'm Damian.Ilyse: I'm Ilyse.Damian: And we'll see you next time.

Guest: Miki Kuusi, head of international at Doordash + CEO & co-founder of Wolt + co-founder of Slush tech conferenceBefore Miki Kuusi launched the Finnish delivery startup Wolt, which DoorDash acquired in 2022, he wasn't just another startup entrepreneur. From 2011 to 2015, Miki was the CEO of the hugely influential European tech conference Slush, which brings thousands of founders and VCs to Helsinki every winter. “You could argue that Slush was my university for things leading up to Wolt, and what I do today,” Miki says. “That's where I learned most of the core lessons that I put into action.” One thing he remembers thinking in those early days: Everything was going to be redefined by the internet.“I just wanted to get a shot at building one of these services of the next hundred years,” he says. “And that was the driving motivator for me.

Ted's Meat & Potatoes

First up on today's wide-ranging show, Ralph speaks to political scientist Adolph Reed about how American politics has started taking its cues from professional wrestling and how the left can rebuild itself. Then, we welcome Steve Silberstein from National Popular Vote to update us on their interstate compact's progress. Finally, we're joined by three interns from the American Museum of Tort Law—Dylan Bird, Gabriel Duffany, and Rachel Donovan discuss a rather unique summer assignment.Adolph Reed is Professor Emeritus of political science at the University of Pennsylvania and an organizer with the Debs-Jones-Douglass Institute's Medicare for All-South Carolina initiative, and co-host of Class Matters Podcast. His most recent books are The South: Jim Crow and Its Afterlives and (with Walter Benn Michaels) No Politics but Class Politics.One of the things that struck me, especially, is during the pandemic it was striking to see how much full-blown animus toward government— or toward the idea of public and public goods—that there is out there in society at large. And we know Heritage (and the rest of the reactionary, the Koch brothers) have been fueling that and stoking that kind of resentment for as long as they've been around, frankly, right…But what's different is that since the Clinton years, the Democrats have been just as likely to attack the idea of government or public goods and public services, right? And they're more likely to do it backhandedly…So there hasn't been any space for people to connect even the fact that they like to go to the public library or like to use the public park with this bipartisan, full-bore attack on the idea of government. And that has gone so far and so deeply within society.Adolph ReedSteve Silberstein founded and served as the first president of Innovative Interfaces Inc., a leading supplier of computer software for the automation of college and city libraries. Mr. Silberstein sold his interest in the company in 2001 and now devotes his time to philanthropic and civic matters, one of which is sitting on the Board of Directors of National Popular Vote.Of the states that have passed [the National Popular Vote compact], it's mostly been with Democratic votes. Because for a while there's been a theory that Republicans couldn't win the national popular vote. That's why they opposed it. But now that they have actually won the popular vote this time around, that theory which caused some of them to oppose it has gone by the wayside.Steve SilbersteinThere's no reason for [Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan being “swing states”]. You know, those states didn't even exist when the constitution was established. It's just purely an accident…Those states are not typical of the United States—each state is unique in some way. So, Wisconsin has a big dairy industry. Pennsylvania has coal mining or fracking or something like that. So the candidates just concentrate on those—what are really very obscure issues to most of the people in the country. These states are not typical. They are not representative in any way shape or form of the rest of the country.Steve SilbersteinDylan Bird is a sophomore at St Lawrence University, pursuing a double major in Global Studies and Spanish on a Pre Law Track. Gabriel Duffany is a sophomore at the University of Connecticut, pursuing a double major in Human Rights and Communication also on a Pre Law Track, and he is an intern at the American Museum of Tort Law. Rachel Donovan is the Outreach Coordinator at the American Museum of Tort Law, and she is pursuing studies in education. All three recently worked as summer interns at the American Museum of Tort Law in the VoxBox Civic Engagement Summer Course, and they participated in Ralph Nader's Dictionary Pilot.It's a very daunting task when somebody hands you a full dictionary—over a thousand pages or so—and asks you to read it front-to-back. Once you start to actually sink your teeth into it…I actually found it to be a very positive experience. Rather than simply looking up individual words and ending your journey there, the goal really becomes the exploration of knowledge.Dylan BirdFor me, what really did stand out wasn't the individual words. It was more so the process of defining that I found the most compelling. So it showed up to me in the linguistic sense that these aren't exact definitions here. They're more so measurements, gauges of people's public opinions and definitions that would shift over time. So it was interesting to see how the evolution of words came, how meanings evolved over time with new technologies, new cultural moments. And as a news writer, I found that fascinating—the complexities of a word, the connotations that go with it, they can make or break the framing of any certain topic.Gabriel DuffanyI think that this project could be very important for students of all ages because it's not often that you would use a physical dictionary very much anymore—versus just going online and looking up a word. And now multiple definitions could come up—you may not even find exactly what you're looking for, because words undergo new meanings on a near-daily basis. And I think having the chance to read the original definition may give students new meanings to words that they may have thought they had the knowledge of due to social media.Rachel DonovanNews 12/25/241. On December 19th, the Teamsters announced they would launch “the largest strike against Amazon in U.S. history.” This strike covers nearly 10,000 Amazon workers who have joined the Teamsters, with workers taking to the picket line in New York City Atlanta, Southern California, San Francisco and Skokie, Illinois. Teamsters President Sean O'Brien is quoted saying “If your package is delayed during the holidays, you can blame Amazon's insatiable greed. We gave Amazon a clear deadline to come to the table and do right by our members. They ignored it…This strike is on them.” Scenes from this strike went viral over the holidays; one video posted by Labor Notes journalist Luis Feliz Leon shows NYPD officers guarding a path for Amazon trucks to depart after clearing away a blockade by striking workers – in case you were wondering whose side the cops are on.2. In more Amazon union news, INDY Week's Lena Geller reports that on December 23rd Amazon workers filed for a union election at the RDU1 warehouse in Garner, North Carolina. These workers are organizing under the auspices of Carolina Amazonians for Solidarity and Empowerment, aka CAUSE, which states that “despite an illegal campaign of intimidation by Amazon, which is desperate to keep unions out to continue paying poverty wages and failing to improve dismal work conditions,” the union believes they have “easily” exceeded the 30% card check threshold to demand an election. If successful, RDU1 would become the first unionized Amazon facility in the South.3. Independent investigative journalists Ken Klippenstein and Dan Boguslaw are out with a report on a potential conflict of interest in the Luigi Mangione prosecution. Apparently, “Magistrate Judge Katharine H. Parker, who is overseeing pre-trial hearings for…Mangione, is married to a former Pfizer executive.” Judge Parker's husband, Bret Parker, had served as Vice President and assistant general counsel at Wyeth, and held the same titles after that company was purchased by Pfizer. According to financial disclosures, Mr. Parker still collects a pension from Pfizer in the form of a “Senior Executive Retirement Plan.” The Parkers also own hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of stock in Pfizer itself, along with other pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and healthcare companies. These holdings raise grave questions about the impartiality of this judge.4. In more news from New York, Gothamist reports New York Governor Kathy Hochul has vetoed a bill which would have “reversed New York's longstanding ban on jury service for anyone convicted of felonies at any point in their lives. If enacted, the bill would have allowed people with felony convictions to serve only after completing their sentences, including parole.” This bill passed with the support of the New York Civil Liberties Union and Phil Desgranges, an attorney at The Legal Aid Society, called this bill “common-sense legislation.” State Senator Jabari Brisport wrote “Fun fact about [New York] politics. The Governor has until end of year to sign bills so she usually waits until [the] holiday season and vetoes a bunch right before Christmas, hoping no one notices.” The Gothamist piece notes that Hochul vetoed 132 bills over the weekend.5. Turning to Israel, a remarkable story in unfolding around the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. According to Democracy Now!, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is planning to skip the anniversary “out of fears he might be arrested for committing war crimes in Gaza.” As we have documented on this program, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former defense minister Yoav Gallant in November, and since then various countries have grappled with their obligations under international law to arrest the pair. While certain ICC signatory nations like Germany and France have sought to weasel out of these commitments, according to this report, “Poland's deputy foreign minister recently confirmed Poland would comply with the ICC arrest warrants if Netanyahu visited.”6. On the domestic front, newly elected Congressional Progressive Caucus chair Greg Casar has sent a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin demanding that the Biden administration withhold new transfers of offensive weaponry to the Israeli military. In this letter, he and other progressive members of Congress make clear that the administration itself has “correctly identified steps the Israeli government must take in order for continued transfers…to be in accordance with U.S. law,” and that “the Israeli government has failed to take sufficient action or change course.” This letter is signed by 20 members of Congress including Casar himself along with Summer Lee, James McGovern, Mark Pocan, Pramila Jayapal, Sara Jacobs, AOC, Rashida Tlaib, and others.7. In a stunning story picked up by POLITICO, Republican Congresswoman Kay Granger – chair of the critical House Appropriations Committee until last April – has been missing in action for months. Despite continuing to hold her Texas seat, she has not cast a vote at all since July. Calls to her office went unanswered and unreturned. Visits to her office found it vacant. And when investigative reporters sought her out, they wound up finding her in an assisted living facility wracked with dementia. This story is tragic; Granger's son has spoken out since publication, addressing how rapidly his mother's mental decline has progressed. Yet, this is just the most striking example of the gerontocracy that has gripped Capitol Hill. And at least Granger had the sense remaining to recuse herself from votes; rebellious Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky is quoted saying he's “more concerned about the congressmen who have dementia and are still voting.”8. Moving to some good news, the Federal Trade Commission announced last week that they, along with the Attorney General of Illinois, have reached a $25 million settlement with food delivery giant GrubHub, stemming from the firm's engagement in “an array of unlawful practices including deceiving diners about delivery costs and blocking their access to their accounts and funds, deceiving workers about how much money they would make delivering food, and unfairly and deceptively listing restaurants on its platform without their permission.” In addition to the monetary penalty, the company must make significant changes to its operations model, including “telling consumers the full cost of delivery, honestly advertising pay for drivers, and listing restaurants on its platform only with their consent.” This is a victory for consumers, workers, restaurants, but perhaps above all, the rule of law. As FTC Chair Lina Khan puts it “There is no ‘gig platform' exemption to the laws on the books.”9. On December 23rd, President Biden announced that he would commute the death sentences for 37 out of the 40 federal prisoners on death row, in a major victory for ending executions by the state. These sentences have been commuted to life in prison without the possibility of parole. In a statement, Biden wrote “I've dedicated my career to reducing violent crime and ensuring a fair and effective justice system…Make no mistake: I condemn these murderers, grieve for the victims of their despicable acts, and ache for all the families who have suffered unimaginable and irreparable loss. But… I am more convinced than ever that we must stop the use of the death penalty at the federal level.” He ends this statement by alluding to the fact that as president he has imposed a moratorium on federal executions and fears that the incoming Trump administration will resume state-sponsored killings. Per AP, the three inmates whose sentences were not commuted are: Dylann Roof, the Mother Emanuel AME Church shooter, Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and Tree of Life Synagogue shooter Robert Bowers.10. Finally, on Christmas Eve, Bernie Sanders issued a statement laying out “How to Make America Healthy Again,” echoing the language used by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Under Bernie's plan, this initiative would include Medicare for All, lowering the cost of prescription drugs, paid family and medical leave, a 32-hour work week, raising the minimum wage, and reforms to the food industry itself, such as banning junk food ads and stronger warning labels on high-sugar products. As with Bernie's qualified embrace of the “Department of Government Efficiency” this should be seen as a savvy move to call the Trump team's bluff. Will they really go after big sugar? Or will they bend the knee to their corporate benefactors yet again?This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
