Always remember..... Richard Trumka is a terrorist

He led the UMWA reign of terror during the miners strike in South West Virginia in 1988/89

‘Right-Wing Zealotry’ = The American instinct for self-rule.

Hey Trumped-up. That’s what happens when you try to invade a right wing state.
Take your union thuggery up North.

Demonize anyone who doesn't think like I do!

Dissent is not patriotic! Dissent is treason!

“I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration.”

I fully expect his NLRB to throw this vote out at some point. The UAW is doing everything they can without “going strongly negative” to unionize in Tennessee and Alabama.

(not saying I’m disagreeing with you, PJ, just reminding folks of the Hildabeast’s hypocracy...)

Trumka should be in prison or sleeping with the fishies...

Maybe the fact that non- union workers in the VW plant make more per hour than his thugs in UAW plants up north had something to do with the vote...

LOL Had the voting been reversed, the union goons would have called this vote a mandate.

I'm not sure about that simply because part of the agreement was for the UAW not to target this plant for a year once they voted...

Though VW management may be pro - union to a point...just how much crap do you think they will put up from the UAW...?

I'm thinking not much...

Of course I could be completely wrong and Obama already has his NRLB stooges writing up their opinions...

And now he’s left all of his UMWA buddies in the wind. His God Obama will destroy their livelihoods and communities in his War on Coal. Nemacolin and all the little mine towns like it will die.

He made his bones on the backs of his union miners at Peabody and Pittston but now they are dog sh*t to him.

I’d say ‘serves them right’ but it’s just too damn sad. Oh well, maybe they can find jobs in the shale - but they aren’t union.

The politics come from the fact that the UAW is purely political and purely democrat. The working man is just the sucker they take money from to fund liberal politicians. These protectors of the working man support amnesty for millions of illegals who will take our jobs and lower our wages. The UAW really cares about the working man's money.

I love these satirical fake news sites. They are really funny. Can you imagine how stupid these guys would look if they had really said this stuff?

Peabody........

I read this week that the TVA Paradise plant that ran on Peabody coal is refurbished for Natural gas.

I guess Mr Peabody’s coal trucks didn’t haul all of Mulenberg county away
