The AFL-CIO endorsed Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) to take over a Democratic National Committee (DNC) that was rocked by scandal during the 2016 campaign season.
“Ellison meets the high standard working people expect from leaders of our political parties,” AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said Thursday in a statement. “He is a proven leader who will focus on year-round grassroots organizing to deliver for working families across America. Under his leadership, the Democratic Party will embody the values that our members stand for every day.”
Ellison is seen as an early frontrunner in the race for DNC chairman, having secured union support and endorsements from incoming Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). . .

Best post-election ever.
Case in point: The Trump Election as POTUS 2017!!!
In order to get some great retiree benefits, I am obligated to belong to the UFT retiree chapter. Because of garbage like THIS, I wish I didn’t have to yoke myself to any root or branch of this libtard nonsense.
Leftists freak out at Bannon because someone wrote a headline at Breitbart calling Kristol a Renegade Jew, stay silent about a demonstrable Jew-hater running their party. Always about power and control with these nutjobs.
An excellent choice in my opinion, he really represents the union blue collar working guy./s

Does he put Sharia law over the constitution. Does he want to kill Christians and Jews ? These are questions he should be asked by the MSM but they are engrossed with comparing Trump with hitler.
Me, too.
He’s my first choice for the job - my only choice, in fact.
He’s a perfect fit!
Yhe AFL-CIO had hoped to endorse Fidel Castro.
Ellison winning the post would be the best thing that ever happened to the GOP and it’s prospects for the future.
I too, am pulling for Ellison to get the DNC gig.
His appointment would finish off what is left of the RAT party.
Thank you, AFL-CIO.
You just gave conservatives another great reason to show how bad you are for the American worker.
The GOP is gonna win win win

It’s going in the direction I suspected. ellison is being groomed to run for president against Trump in 2020.
The democrats are going to have to crow real loud about muzzy victimhood for the next 4 years.
An excellent suggestion.
