WHO IS RICHARD TRUMKA?

Richard Trumka. President of the AFL_CIO, in his own words has stated that he talks with the white house daily and visits at least two or three times a week. This is a very interesting fact when you look at who he is.

Richard Trumka has an extensive past with the unions.  I will only look at some of the more interesting times. Trumka was at one time the president of the United Mine workers.  During  this time he was more of a militant leader and encouraged violence against his own workers and was even quoted as saying “kick the sh*% out of every last one of ‘em” while referring to the mine workers who dared to cross the picket line so they could work to pay their bills and feed their kids. Under the direction of Trumka, the workers followed like sheep and did his bidding. They harassed other workers and former bosses, they trashed their houses, discharged firearms at the offices and even turned off the power to a mineshaft which led to 93 miners being trapped in the mines. It sounds to me like this man should be in prison. If that is not enough for you, look up the name, Eddie York. He was a non-union contractor that was shot in the head and killed by a union thug while the rest of the union thugs threw rocks at the guards that tried to help him. Instead of acknowledging this as an act of murder, Trumka tried to diminish the whole ordeal  with a less than compassionate statement. "I'm saying if you strike a match and put your finger in, common sense tells you you're going to burn your finger”. Other acts of violence seem to have followed this animal for some reason. Look up another incident in Bentleyville Pa. Remember that this man has the president’s ear.

 Are we supposed to believe all of the rhetoric about Obama being surrounded by radicals? Well apparently Trumka does not help to dismiss this argument. He has joined the likes of Fox-Piven, a socialist activist and has stated that he got into the labor movement to promote massive social change. Social change as we all know is another way of saying socialism or social justice.

Trumka has said  recently at a march 14^th union rally that the  days’ events should be seen as part of the larger fight and that the larger fight is between the “haves” and the “have nots”. I wonder which fight he is referring to. It sounds like we are in store for more of Trumka’s bullying and animalistic behavior only this time it will be on a national level.  As for the socialism, his reference to the “haves” and the “have nots” is a reference to a book called Rules For Radicals by Saul Alinski and the strategy used by the socialists and communists. If you look up his past you will find far more than the few examples that I have pointed to. I would also like to repeat the beginning of my article. Richard Trumka. President of the AFL_CIO, in his own words has stated that he talks with the white house daily and visits at least two or three times a week. One can only hope that he goes the way of Jimmy Hoffa and very soon. This man is an enemy of the country and yet another one of the socialists in power that want to dismantle the country and mold it more to the model of socialism.
