She says she has a problem with the words "with liberty and justice for all."

I agree, but it's not the peon who is denied liberty, it's the rulers who are exempt from justice.

What I can’t understand is why the other snoozervisors recite the Pledge.

"What/who is the first allegiance of unions?"

Probably their bosses now. However I do remember the union dockworkers in NY would not service Communist ships.

So are you giving them a pass?

If corporations ( whose first allegiance, by design, is to their owners) shouldn’t allowed to contribute to political causes, what about Unions, whose first allegiance to their bosses, or (ideally) their members?

No pass to any organization. Only citizens who can vote should be allowed to contribute to candidates. Any entity that can’t vote, can’t contribute. Putting money before country does not cut it for an American citizen.
