AFL-CIO feature prominently in the article.
note their President, Richard Trumka, in the following Axios clip - clearly not happy (or pretending to be unhappy) with Biden announcing on his first day as “President” that he was shutting down the Keystone XL Pipeline, destroying thousands of jobs:

Look at all the physical cognitive dissonance tells the AFL-CIO president (Richard Trumka) gives in this clip
He knows how bad he screwed up backing Biden

then note how Axios report on an interview with Trumka!

7 Feb: Axios: AFL-CIO leader: Clinton, Obama let down unions
by Jonathan Swan
AFL-CIO boss Richard Trumka told Jonathan Swan in an interview for “Axios on HBO” that former Presidents Clinton and Obama didn’t understand unions’ importance — and were disappointments to organized labor because of it.

What they’re saying: “Joe Biden has surrounded himself with people that are worker-friendly, so that in the multitude of decisions that are made every day without the president being involved, they’re going to think about the impact it has on workers,” Trumka said.
“That’s a significant difference and a beneficial one for workers in this country,” Trumka added. “And it’s one of our reasons for optimism and hope.”

Barack Obama and Bill Clinton — the last two Democratic presidents — “didn’t understand the importance of labor and the importance of collective bargaining,” he said.
“Both of them surrounded themselves with Wall Street people. And so all of their advice was coming from a Wall Street lens.”

Biden “still identifies as a blue-collar guy. ... He doesn’t aspire to be accepted by Wall Street. He is what he is, and that is a genuinely good human being that cares about working people.”

Why it matters: Trumka knows many union members feel burned by Obama and Clinton — and the Democratic Party, by extension — because of trade deals and other legislation that overlooked or was antithetical to organized labor...
Then Obama tried to seal the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) — a trade deal many labor leaders believed would send American jobs offshore...

The big picture: The labor movement — which has suffered decades of declining power and membership — may never enjoy a more favorable climate in Washington than now.
Biden is vowing to be “the most pro-union president you’ve ever seen,” coupled with Democratic control of the House and Senate...

Even if he did, so what?!?!?!

There’s no one to enforce whatever laws TPTB choose to disregard.

Campaign donations are laundered through PACS and “non-profits.” Politicians, especially Democrats, profess to claim that there is too much money in politics so they pass various forms of “campaign-finance reform” then they take hundreds of millions of in-kind donations. It’s all so corrupt.

As I understand, many of the election efforts his company made were a violation of state laws - either in that the money didn’t go into a general pool, or in unequal application boosting one area at the expense of another, depending upon the state.
