This Amazon exec resigned today. He was widely known for efforts to prevent workers from collectively organizing. Execs like this should not get to ride into the sunset with millions. We demand justice for the workers impacted by his greed. https://twitter.com/...

1). @kenklippenstein reports on Amazon CEO Dave Clark and his role in suppressing Amazon workers' rights. 2). Congress demands documents from Clark and Amazon, citing Ken's reporting. 3). Clark resigns as CEO the next day. That's real journalism. https://twitter.com/...

Congrats, Dave, on an extraordinary run of leadership and invention! Seems like yesterday we were touring Campbellsville and eating too much BBQ at peak. Can't wait to see what you build next. https://twitter.com/...

No replacement lined up. Suggests this was sudden, and Clark's decision. Wonder if he's got some big new CEO gig lined up. https://twitter.com/...
