This is the third in a three-part series. To read the first two, go here and here. ________________ The previous two posts about the Workers World Party National Conference, which was held in New York on November 13th and 14th, involved calls to seize property and fight for worldwide socialism, as well as the use of race to accomplish the overthrow of the U.S. capitalist system. | Read More »
Viva la Union? Breaking the Stranglehold of Government Unions Before It’s Too Late.
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | October 25th at 12:00 PM |
Last week, it was revealed that the government workers’ union AFSCME is spending $87.5 million to try to keep Democrats from being defeated on November 2nd. Interestingly, some people seemed shocked by this. They really shouldn’t be though. For decades, America’s union bosses have touted a desire to be more like their European counterparts and they’ve figured out the only way for them to accomplish | Read More »

They’re Downright Dirty

They came to Washington. They made the outrageous demands of their fellow Americans. They trashed the place. Then, they expected someone else to clean it up… On November 2nd, throw the trash out.

The OneNation March: November’s Choices Are Clearer Than Ever
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | October 3rd at 01:56 AM |
The choices in November and beyond have never, ever been clearer… They came, they preached Marx, they trashed D.C., disrespected WWII vets (yes, those are SEIU signs), attacked Tea Parties as ‘insidious’ and ‘villainous,’ and they showed the rest of America what vile contempt they have for the Land of the Free. By all accounts, it was a success. For they were finally able to | Read More »

AFL-CIO Boss: Fox & ‘Confused’ Tea Partiers Deliver a ‘Cynical, Deeply Dishonest, and Incoherent Message.’
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | September 27th at 04:15 PM |
AFL-CIO Boss Richard Trumka, the same guy who pled the Fifth Amendment before Congress is doing all he can to carry the Democrats’ water for the mid-term elections, including (but not limited to) demonizing Tea Party activists. Last Friday, Trumka lobbed some rhetorical grenades at Tea Party activists using terms such as confused, cynical, deeply dishonest, and incoherent. Trumka and Working America Executive Director Karen | Read More »
Just days before Socialist Saturday, unions remind Americans of Obama roots
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | September 27th at 02:45 PM |
Aesop, meet Obama. Just days before Socialist Saturday (see #hashtags below), a series of union-related events are beginning to become large enough of an embarrassment to the Obama administration that they may be hard for the media to ignore any longer. With the abrupt departure of SEIU über-boss Andy Stern, the rejection (and subsequent departure) of his hand-chosen successor, Anna Burger, the President’s friends at | Read More »

Why so Socialist? Or, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | February 7th at 02:22 AM |
Last year, the mainstream media (un-affectionately known as the MSM) and a number of pundits on the left were caught completely off guard when posters of President Obama began appearing mysteriously in Los Angeles and Atlanta. It was a brief story, but it made a big splash around the internet. Well, seemingly unrelated to the “joker poster story” is a Gallup poll released last week that revealed that over | Read More »
