[rayg]

Selling out the American people out for a political repay..Richard Trumka Union Prsident expressed displeasure with pipeline cancellation but also PRAISED Biden

Yes he knows what side his bread is buttered on...and don't care about the country and the little guy..

"There's a gap between what they’re promising and what’s actually possible," Greszler said said. on Fox news "You can talk about these green jobs, but it’s going to take years, if not decades, to actually generate these jobs."

Mean while the oil keeps on being trucked in for a big cost by big Biden donner via political payoff....

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka's muted reaction to President Biden's decision to derail the Keystone XL pipeline project shows the divide between union leadership and union members, Heritage Foundation economics research fellow Rachel Greszler told Fox News.

"The fact that Trumka was relatively indifferent to Biden's move to kill thousands of union jobs is troubling and revealing," Greszler said. "It shows that unions don't actually represent workers' interests, but rather union leadership's quest for power."

Donner? Like Santa's reindeer, Donner?

Trump's NLRB makes it tough for unions to organize. Biden is pro-labor, and not shy about it. It's interesting that people who are anti-union try to pretend that they care about "good UNION jobs" on the pipeline when in truth it's the opposite.... they'd bring in scabs at the first opportunity.

It's NLRB, not NRLB

Biden is pro labor union,, not so much pro labor,

unions have proven themselves to be out of date and not necessarily needed in most trades, and almost always go liberal in voting recommendation, regardless of what the rank and file members want or vote

BIDEN IS PRO LABOR! What a laugh. Talk to the union members, especially those out of Pipe Liners Local 798. Not only 798, but all the other unions involved with the pipeline.

Okay smarty! "donator".. Wish I was just perfect like you!

The donor who gave the big money was Warren Buffet. He has invested heavily in the trucking company that is hauling the oil. He is already a multi billionaire and will make still more money with this crooked deal.

The GOP looks a bit fracked as well. The Q's and the C's are at odds.

Good point....that was the only union work going on in the country.

People are always trying to divide labor, dice it into smaller chunks. This local against that local, bosses against rank and file. The people doing this always want the same thing: to weaken the movement.

Q's lack staying power, because one can only march for so long on a false narrative. The C's have issues too, but at least they can go home to pre-Limbaugh C, pre-Gingrich, before the point was to rip any/all institutions of governance down.

remind us again how much actual experience you have with locals, and unions.,,.


my brother is a member of the IBEW, and was a member of the CWA (communication workers)

I dealt with UFCW , (local 400 in this area, but there were several locals in the division)


not heard anything about anyone working one local against the other,

even during contract negotiations, they basically showed a united front

WTH is that supposed to mean?

It's in the title of the thread. Sorry you missed it.

Since the day Comrade Biden fired the oil pipeline workers, the price of a gallon of gas has steadily risen! I wassummed that pipeline was not complete let alone pumping oil! So why the price gouging so soon? It's a fact when gas and diesel fuel reach astronomical levels the ultimate loser is the public. Trucks haul most of the stuff to grocery store. Grocery stores raise their prices to cover delivery costs related to fuel costs. What the stupid Biden supported don't realize YET is that they are impacted too by Comrade Biden's mental lapse.
