Michigan Man Charged with Threatening UAW President Shawn Fain

A Michigan man, Zachary David White, has been charged with two felonies for allegedly sending threatening text messages to UAW President Shawn Fain. The messages were sent just before the union's labor contracts with Ford, GM, and Stellantis expired. White is facing charges of false report or threat of terrorism and false report or threat of bomb/harmful device. The UAW has been engaged in aggressive negotiations with the automakers, leading to targeted strikes at Ford, Stellantis, and GM facilities.
