AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka on Monday condemned the damage caused by rioters to the union group's headquarters in Washington, D.C., over the weekend.
"We categorically reject those on the fringes who are engaging in violence and destroying property," Trumka said in a statement. "Attacks like the one on the AFL-CIO headquarters are senseless, disgraceful and only play into the hands of those who have oppressed workers of color for generations and detract from the peaceful, passionate protesters who are rightly bringing issues of racism to the forefront."
Rioters smashed windows and spray-painted explicit messages on the headquarters of the AFL-CIO, the nation's largest union federation with more than 12 million members. Businesses, offices and even churches throughout Washington, D.C., were also damaged.
Along with what Bob replied, we don’t have all film yet. Some have seen where he WAS in the car backseat then was taken out after much apparent fussing.
We need to have ALL the film, not just what the anti-whites/American haters want to show.
Bad move to make the unions mad
Gotta admit, I chuckled when i heard this last night.
People in glass office buildings....
“We categorically reject those on the fringes who are engaging in violence and destroying property”
********************************
The Republican messaging people should be taking these kinds of statements and amplifying them while hammering home who exactly these people are. They need to make it crystal clear that they’re young white progressives from the radical wing of the Democrat party.
ALF-CIO is a disgusting and evil organization. They had no trouble with sending union goons to threaten me when I was an undersized teenager trying to work a minimum wage job without also paying union dues (the law was on my side, not that the law matters with unions). These same goons are now afraid of terrorists and won’t stand up to defend their own property against today’s thugs. Pathetic.
