As Twitchy told you earlier, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy made it pretty clear how he feels about unions and the prospect of his writers unionizing:
Heard @ringer employees want to unionize. Little refresher how I feel about unions. Gawker Writers Vote To Unionize https://t.co/bRWpluAqw1

If you work for @barstoolsports and DM this man I will fire you on the spot https://t.co/u9vG3VgfV1

AOC decided that a good use of her time would be trying to get Portnoy into trouble:
If you’re a boss tweeting firing threats to employees trying to unionize, you are likely breaking the law &can be sued,in your words, “on the spot.”
ALL workers in the US have the protected freedom to organize for better conditions.
See @NLRB &union orgs like @AFLCIO for tips. https://t.co/bU7WlHrp1d

She didn’t plan on Portnoy refusing to roll over:
