Death Knell For The Democrat Party???

Union support is the life's blood of the Democrat Party.
Where did the union get that money, and who decided how it is to be spent?



1. "On June 6, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation asked the Supreme Court to hear Janus v.

2. Right-to-work proponents are optimistic that the Court will hear the case and that Neil Gorsuch, Scalia’s replacement, will come down as the fifth vote on the side of employee freedom and overturn the 40-year-old precedent established in Abood v.

5. Even if the Court decides to hear the case, a decision in Janus is most likely a year off. But the unions are planning for the worst-case scenario.

6. But whatever the membership drop might be, it will be damaging to the unions and could have widespread ramifications. And perhaps no group will be more affected than the Democratic Party. Naomi Walker, an assistant to AFSCME president Lee Saunders and a former Obama administration appointee, said that Janus “could undermine political operations that assist the Democratic Party.”
She added, “The progressive infrastructure in this country, from think tanks to advocacy organizations—which depends on the resources and engagement of workers and their unions—will crumble. We need the entire labor and progressive movements to stand with us and fight for us.
We may not survive without it—and nor, we fear, will they.”

The Dems are not allowing Clinton to run again, one by one they are blaming Trumps Presidency on her which is actually the truth.

So will Clinton have Biden murdered?

Death Knell For The Democrat Party???

exactly

they have a need to lie about everything

check this turd breath out

people are just fed up with these assholes

Former Petersburg City Attorney Brian K. Telfair asked a city employee to buy a prepaid cellphone that he later used to make a phone call to himself — a call that Telfair told police was made by an unknown “redneck” caller who made racist threats to the mayor and two other city officials, according to court records.

The phony call led to the abrupt cancellation of a Petersburg City Council meeting in February 2016 after city officials received word that residents were upset about high water bills and other financial issues plaguing the city, according to court records related to Telfair’s pending misdemeanor criminal charge of lying to police about the supposed threat to city officials.

Documents in Telfair’s case file in Petersburg General District Court outline what appears to be much of the prosecution’s case against the former city attorney, who resigned in March 2016. Special prosecutor Benjamin H. Garrison provided the material to Telfair’s attorney in response to a pretrial motion for evidence against his client.

Telfair was scheduled to stand trial May 23, but the proceeding was continued on that day to Sept. 1.

The documents contain summaries of police interviews with Telfair and other city officials and employees about the events surrounding the last-minute cancellation of the City Council meeting on Feb. 16, 2016.

At the time, the city released a cryptic note about the cancellation, citing safety concerns. The next day, Telfair said that racial slurs and threats of physical violence against some members of the council and the administration prompted the cancellation.

Court documents allege that Telfair concocted the entire episode.

2 million words or less please

Sorry Bassman007
1. Problems caused by Democrats are TOO EXTENSIVE to put into a few words and expect to do justice.
Unconstitutional conflicts of interest enabled or funded by Democrats have caused abuses and damaged on ALL LEVELS and areas of govt.

2. As a Democrat myself who has struggled to check and correct abuses by my own party leaders and policies,
I have a worse problem trying to "summarize" the solutions effectively.

As a Green leaning progressive Democrat and Constitutionalist, I have to defend PoliticalChic
and applaud her attempts that are better than mine.

At least she ENUMERATES the several points that are impacted with each issue the Democrats have FU(BAR).

3. Bassman007 if you want issues with Democrats
to be short and to the point, as the Rightwing are able to shout over the radio,
THEN GET THE DEMOCRATS TO FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION.

If we AGREED to follow the
* 10 Articles in the Bill of Rights and
* 10 Articles in the Code of Ethics,
That's all we'd have to CITE and hit the points home in 200 words or fewer!

But as long as liberal Democrats don't follow the RULE OF LAW
but skirt around and make everything "morally relativistic" and treat each case as special rights
that "REQUIRE THEIR OWN 2,000 PAGES OF LEGISLATION TO FU" then we have BIG GOVT,
And BIG MESSES to clean up that affect
* federal levels of govt
* states rights and levels of govt
* city and county govt
* individual rights and freedoms that should have remained free from govt interference

I WISH OTHER DEMOCRATS WOULD FOLLOW THE SAME LAWS AS CONSERVATIVES
USE TO LIMIT GOVT.

IF WE ONLY RECOGNIZED POLICIES POINTS AND PRINCIPLES THE PUBLIC AGREES ON
AND CALL THAT PUBLIC POLICY FOR THE FEDERAL GOVT TO BE IN CHARGE OF,
THEN WE WOULDN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM.

Until then, I can try to summarize what is wrong and how to correct it.
But I go way over the average audience attention span or experience.

PoliticalChic at least can explain it in OUTLINED POINTS that reach
some audiences.

Sorry you are not able to keep up, but compared with me,
she does a pretty good job trying to address a huge web of govt issues FU by the Democrats.

Bassman007 the problems are far-reaching
and can't be fixed in 30 second sound bytes.
Sorry!

Dear PoliticalChic
1. Thanks for enumerating the several points this issue affects.
You do a great job and I will try to follow your example when I unload on fellow Democrats
and what it will take us to fix the messes caused by party politics.
You go!

2. I still hope I can organize and launch a national class action over the rights violated
and damages caused by the unconstitutional ACA mandates, bailouts, and govt shutdown in protest.
I est. taxpayers are owed billions if not trillions, if we'd all come together as a CLASS and demand refunds and restitution for the imposition
on our finances and freedoms that weren't justified as we were not convicted of crimes to lose our liberties.
Any "compelling interest" could have been addressed with PRIVATE LLC and business/nonprofit reforms without relying on govt to try to force it
which it has no constitutional authority to do WITHOUT AN AMENDMENT FIRST PASSED BY THE SEVERAL STATES TO GIVE THAT FUNCTION TO GOVT.

3. As for labor pools, socialist and other worker parties and unions
PoliticalChic I would say these are the people who could jump on board with business and job plans
and work WITH TRUMP and Trump AND BERNIE supporters to jumpstart economic expansion, starting with schools
that can train new workers to mentor under the experienced laborers retiring and aging out of the system.
Both Trump and Sanders face restitution they owe for abuses and/or academic fraud.
They can use the defunct and abused school system to organize workers
by skill level, match them to business sponsors, and fund education by on the job training
and paid internships so students can work their way through school. Including medical
and nursing school so this provides "universal health care" at the same time we train the staff
and expand the facilities needed to serve local populations to reach all people at affordable sustainable levels.

Together, the workers and small business folks on LEFT and RIGHT
can overcome the oppression by class politics pushed by elitist Democrats
playing the same corporate games they accuse opponents of doing.

Just like the ants and the grasshoppers, the ants need to unite all the anthills
and chase off the bullies exploiting that labor. If we don't unite, that's how we
all become victims to partisan politics pitting the rich and poor against each other.

The workers at the bottom are the key to uniting around sustainable business plans
and development across the states and in each district, focused around local schools and supporting business interests.

For unions, the teachers unions and police unions are the key to stabilizing each district,
uniting with their local communities, taking back control of programs, property and policies
and stopping the govt abuses and waste by politicians making profits and careers off
keeping these people divided against each other instead of organizing and governing their own resources!

Thanks PC
If you can please help me take this idea above
and explain it in conservative talking points,
we can lobby both left and right to unite,
* both Sanders workers supporters and Trump supporters,
* both teachers unions and police unions,
* both health care and prison reform lobbyists,
and take back state resources and local authority
instead of handing more and more over to federal govt where it gets abused.

How can we write this up to appeal to both Left and Right
to unite and create jobs for workers and students to fix these problems and abuses?

Just one more effort to make American workers poorer.

. I agree there has to be representation for the workers against greed and slave labor tactics in which had been proven yet again in this country over the issue of cheap labor tactics being used on the Mexican labor forces who many were here illegally. So who will the representatives be if the unions fall ?? Will it be the federal government to then take over the role of labor representation in this nation where there is none or will the unions shake off their poisonous handlers, re-invent itself, and go back to representing American workers instead of corporate interest or political interest that is tied to corporate interest ?

Telfair asked a city employee to buy a prepaid cellphone that he later used to make a phone call to himself — a call that Telfair told police was made by an unknown “redneck” caller who made racist threats to the mayor and two other city officials, according to court records.

The phony call led to the abrupt cancellation of a Petersburg City Council meeting in February 2016 after city officials received word that residents were upset about high water bills and other financial issues plaguing the city, according to court records related to Telfair’s pending misdemeanor criminal charge of lying to police about the supposed threat to city officials.

Documents in Telfair’s case file in Petersburg General District Court outline what appears to be much of the prosecution’s case against the former city attorney, who resigned in March 2016. Special prosecutor Benjamin H. Garrison provided the material to Telfair’s attorney in response to a pretrial motion for evidence against his client.

Telfair was scheduled to stand trial May 23, but the proceeding was continued on that day to Sept. 1.

The documents contain summaries of police interviews with Telfair and other city officials and employees about the events surrounding the last-minute cancellation of the City Council meeting on Feb. 16, 2016.

At the time, the city released a cryptic note about the cancellation, citing safety concerns. The next day, Telfair said that racial slurs and threats of physical violence against some members of the council and the administration prompted the cancellation.

Court documents allege that Telfair concocted the entire episode.

"Faking Hate Crimes: “The first one to really go viral involved a Muslim female student at the University of Louisiana who claimed to have had her hijab ripped off and her wallet stolen the day after Trump's election by two white men wearing Trump hats. But on Thursday, local police announced that the young woman had admitted she fabricated the story. .

...an alleged incident of a gay man named Chris Ball getting beaten up by Trump supporters..

...a black woman claimed that four white men had threatened her while she was pumping gas....But when PhillyVoice contacted Smyrna police Thursday, the department said no report about such an incident had been filed and no one had contacted them about anything similar."

We spent a fortune to elect Barack Obama — $60.7 million to be exact — and we’re proud of it." LaborPains.org | The Price of An Election

Union support is the life's blood of the Democrat Party.

She added, “The progressive infrastructure in this country, from think tanks to advocacy organizations—which depends on the resources and engagement of workers and their unions—will crumble. We need the entire labor and progressive movements to stand with us and fight for us.

In full disclosure....the future of the Supreme Court, and of this nation, was my #1 reason for voting for President Trump.
The Democrats see exactly why.

i'd like to hear stories from people, past and present, if and how they were "persuaded" to vote.
and who employs the two million seiu members.

good one PC.

I've been an SEIU member since 2004. I have never felt compelled to vote for any candidate supported by the SEIU.

. And you are still a member why ?

Just one more effort to make American workers poorer.

. I agree there has to be representation for the workers against greed and slave labor tactics in which had been proven yet again in this country over the issue of cheap labor tactics being used on the Mexican labor forces who many were here illegally. So who will the representatives be if the unions fall ?? Will it be the federal government to then take over the role of labor representation in this nation where there is none or will the unions shake off their poisonous handlers, re-invent itself, and go back to representing American workers instead of corporate interest or political interest that is tied to corporate interest ?

" Will it be the federal government to then take over the role of labor representation..."

Not 'will it be'.....but 'why is it that the federal government has taken the role of labor representation?'


The 32nd President, contrary to the Constitution, did exactly that.

I have proof of this in a post I've prepared to post a bit later.
Hope you'll read it and give your opinion.
