      The Future of the Teamsters—Online Report, Sun., Nov 21

      Next week, ballots will be counted to determine the next leadership of the 1.3 million-member Teamsters Union. Register today to join an online report on Sunday, Nov. 21 at 11am Eastern The stakes are high, with the outcome determining the direction of the Teamsters, and the U.S. labor movement, for years to come.



      Guest host Jonah Furman will interview TDU and Teamster leaders about the IBT election results, challenges facing the new Teamster leadership, and the role of the TDU reform movement in the next period.

          Let's see what they can do.
          The AFL-CIO is looking kinda 'woke'.
          Hopefully we stay independent. A lot of our guys aren't into leftist politics.
          I think we grow stronger by avoiding leftists.

                      2 questions come to mind...

                      1. Why the discrepancy and...
                      2. Will it be corrected?

                      IMO... Those who voted have the right and deserve to know the correct results... otherwise... some could come to believe that one of the two could care less that their numbers were correct or not. Some may not care but to me... credibility is everything! That's why I have more faith in and went with the Office of Election Supervisor's results when doing my charts.

                          If it was a closer election I think it would have been recounted. But I heard a rumor on the internet that Vairma was in touch with the DNC.. Maybe looking for some 3AM ballots??

                            Vairma mustn't have been able to get in touch with the DNC because he would of won in a landside if he had... lol

                              Looks like Herrera of Vairma/Herrera made the news.
                              https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/202.../gxyx-o13.html

                              On October 9, an individual anonymously posted audio of a conversation held last fall between the head of the Los Angeles County AFL-CIO, Ron Herrera, and three Democratic members of the Los Angeles City Council: Council President Nury Martinez, Kevin de León and Gil Cedillo.

                              The conversation took place at the county headquarters of the AFL-CIO during a meeting to discuss “redistricting,” the process by which the politicians representing the city’s elite carve the population into racial enclaves and distribute the spoils of government power.

                              Employing the crass language of racial tribalism, Nury Martinez referred to the black child of a rival City Council member as a “changuito,” the Spanish term for “little monkey.” Saying the child “needs a beatdown,” she added, “Let me take him around the corner.” She attacked former Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón for being “for the blacks.”

                              In a discussion related to which faction of the local elite should control the area around Koreatown, Martinez (2020 salary = $207,000) mocked the area’s indigenous immigrants, who are impoverished, often undocumented and come from the southwestern Mexican state of Oaxaca, as “short little dark people” without shoes. These comments expose the Latino bourgeois politicians in the Democratic Party as hostile to the defense of immigrants’ rights.

                              The stench of racism and chauvinist reaction hangs over all the parties of capitalism. In Pennsylvania, Republican candidate for governor Doug Mastriano denounced Jewish schools in an openly anti-Semitic attack on his Democratic opponent, who is Jewish. Racialism and nationalism are intrinsic to bourgeois politics. In every country, the ruling class perceives and explains the world in racial terms and aims to maintain its domination by fomenting antagonisms within the international working class.

                              In the Los Angeles audio, City Council President Martinez disparaged “the white members of this Council” and noted with striking eloquence that they “will motherfuck you in a heartbeat.” The Council members describe other individuals by the color of their skin (example: “Was she a black lady?”). Herrera states proudly that the meeting participants are forming “a little Latino caucus of our own.”

                              During the same meeting, AFL-CIO head Herrera referred to Jewish state Assemblyman Richard Katz as “Katz and his crew,” stating obliquely that they “have an agenda.” Martinez responded affirmatively, saying the judíos—the Jews— “cut their deal with South LA” and “are going to screw everyone else.”
