Obama Cynically Ups The Ante With Newest Nominations To His Illegitimate NLRB
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | April 11th at 06:30 PM |
Obama’s NLRB nominations this week are nothing more than a political ploy–aimed at setting up Senate Republicans. As a result, it would be foolish for Republicans to jump on some backroom, deal-making bandwagon.
Obama’s ‘recess’ appointments were found to be unconstitutional. He undermined his own claim that they were constitutional by immediately re-nominating them. Therefore, Republicans should let the Supreme Court decide on the Block and Griffin appointments, since a three-to-two union majority does nothing at all to change the radical nature of the NLRB.

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | January 7th at 04:30 PM |

Notwithstanding the union-backed effort to end Senate filibusters, time and time again, both publicly and behind-the-scenes, Barack Obama and his union cronies and backers work to stifle–even purge and eradicate–any form of dissent if it does not benefit union bosses.

With Union Strike Threat Looming, ABC Vows Presidential Debate Coverage Won’t Be Affected
By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | October 1st at 08:00 PM |
While it’s not like there are no other networks airing the presidential debates between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, a union dispute may cause some minor technical difficulties of ABC’s planned coverage of the debates. A division of the red-shirted Communications Workers of America, known as NABET, has been without a contract since early 2011. Now, according to the Wall Street Journal, NABET (which is | Read More »

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary) | March 28th at 05:00 PM |
Union thugs protesting outside the homes of their targets has become a weapon more and more unions have added to their already-large arsenal.

Last year, when 45,000 union members struck telephone carrier Verizon, IBEW union radicals | Read More »

Tech at Night: Stopping Net Neutrality in the Senate, National Sales Tax plan, CWA backs up AT&T
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | November 10th at 03:00 AM |
Why can’t the news come in even intervals, instead of batching up all at once? So yes, the Senate Net Neutrality vote is coming up. Credit where it’s due: Kay Bailey Hutchison moved the ball forward on this, no doubt about it. Credit also to Marco Rubio making headlines with his strong support of the repeal. And Rubio is right: the whole thing is ridiculous. | Read More »

Tech at Night: It’s better for government to inform than to regulate, CWA dishes out talking points, Backlash against copyright freeloaders

Mary Bono Mack, pay attention: Here’s the model for any privacy ventures you should attempt: voluntary action by private individuals, educated by simple government actions. If you really must get government involved, teach the people to fish, so that they can protect their own privacy for a lifetime. Because if we insist on regulating the Internet problems of the moment, not only do we expand | Read More »

Tech at Night: Net Neutrality nears, CWA angry at Obama, 4G competition delayed, Blackburn leads
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | September 15th at 02:00 AM |
The FCC continues to stall national 4G wireless competition in America, as LightSquared continues to be stalled even after having to give up half its spectrum! Meanwhile the Net Neutrality power grab creeps closer to being official, at which time MetroPCS and Verizon will sue. I expect them to win and get the regulations tossed out, too, because the last time the FCC tried this, | Read More »
