the DOJ runs the teamsters union under a RICO settlement called the consent decree

They have them by the short hairs and the gang running the Consent Decree are as politically corrupt as any old guard teamster

The teamster money always flows by hand of the officers but though they try to influence the membership, they really don't control their votes

less than 20% of the one million or so even participate in their union elections - the retirees just bitch about their pension shortfalls

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is just a dues shakedown operation and PAC (D.R.I.V.E.)
