Dan: All rise for her honor Judge Roseanne Conner.

Darlene: Dad, stop with the hokey rhymes.

I thought the unionization was through an EO?

IMO, I’d love to see the Leftists’ heads explode if Trump would say, “Fine. I hereby rescind EO XYZ” (above) and let the chips fall where they may

“This is a democracy, not a dictatorship,” Cox said. “No president should be able to undo a law he doesn’t like through administrative fiat.”

Tell it to the blackrobed tyrants that routinely throw out popular votes they don’t like, or any other law they deem personally offensive. Let’s not forget the Nazis grew out of the German workers union leading to WWII. Unions are nothing but extortion rackets for organized crime.

should rescind the JFK executive order that allowed them to Unionize in the first place. They should be able to use any official time on union/poli””

Yes, JFK delivered a huge boost to organized Union criminals by this single act.

Government unions must be eliminated.
Serving the public is not jurisdiction for unions.
Those that don’t like it can get a real job.

Then there’s the Civil Service Reform Act of1978.

The Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 created rules and procedures for federal civilian employees. There were two parts to the reform; The Reorganization Plan and the Civil Service Reform Act. The Reorganization Plan divided the Civil Service Commission (CSC) into the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) and the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB). Additionally, the Federal Labor Regulations Authority (FLRA) was created.

Responsibilities are as follows:

OPM provides management guidance to agencies of the executive branch and issues regulations that control federal human resources.
The MSPB conducts studies of the federal civil service and hears appeals of federal employees who have been disciplined or otherwise separated from their positions. Personnel actions which discriminate among employees based on marital status, political activity, or political affiliation are prohibited by the CSRA. Federal employees may file complaints regarding possible violations of this rule with the Office of Special Counsel, which was created as a subunit of the MSPB.
FLRA oversees the rights of federal employees to form collective bargaining units (unions) to bargain with agencies. The CSRA imposes standards on the officers of those unions which are enforced by the Office of Labor-Management Standards in the U.S. Department of Labor.
In addition to the creation of new agencies, a new grade classification for the government’s top managers was created - the Senior Executive Service (SES). These managers were strategically positioned throughout the government and were rewarded via bonuses based on merit. Middle managers were now paid and rewarded based on evaluations and merit only. The act also created processes for firing employees found to be incompetent and provided protection for “whistleblowers”[7]

What a convoluted mess!

Anything created by executive order can be destroyed by executive order unless you are President Trump and trying to overturn the God-like orders of prior Democrat presidents, so you must be some sort of monster.

There. Fixed it according to the current lib black-robed tyrants.

So, basically, they’re limited to billing us for 10 hours of their time on union activities. What the f*ck are we paying these slobs for? They should have *0* hours they bill for union duties. They want to do their union stuff, do it on THEIR TIME, NOT MINE.

That’s always been the one sticking point on the conspiracy theory that JFK was killed by the mob. Why would they kill the guy who brought them TRILLIONS?

His family was deeply involved in mob activities for many decades. It was the old media that put out the BS that the mob killed the bastard.
