The unions are corrupt throughout the U.S. They run Washington State, using union dues to line pockets and support democrat campaigns with workers. The Republicans are so battle worn, they are starting to give up.

Philadelphia has been a construction trade union cesspool forever. My folks lived 30 miles west of Philly starting in 1969 and it was the height of union violence against “merit shops.” Lots of construction sites were burned. They targeted a leading young construction company owner named Leon Altemose.

Here we are 50 years later and nothing has changed. All of these union leaders and their cronies deserve jail.

I worked on a paper mill boiler in Longview, WA in 1974 or 1975. The electricians were the absolute worst at featherbedding the job. You just couldn’t get rid of them at the end of construction. They actually called themselves “The FLEAS” — “Fat Lazy Electricians” — and were proud of it. As a naive and newly minted mechanical engineer, I became quite sickened by the way the real world worked.

Ha..you may have known my husband..he was there too ..his first job out of college.
He said they used to steal tools constantly in their lunch boxes, and the pipefitters also had special shacks where they made stainless belt buckles.

Dougherty is a powerplayer in Philly / PA politics for sure. He's well known in the public eye. This is a very interesting development.

By the way, in Philly his name is pronounced like "Dockerty" for some reason, which is why they call him "Johnny Doc". As far as I can tell Philly is the only place it's pronounced that way but I could be wrong.

Let me know when ABCbs, NBCbs, CBSbs, CNNbs, or even FOXbs posts something about this.

Until then, it’s all the mindless prayers by the right-wing deplorables hoping to see Dictator Trump stay in power until 2025.

Philadelphia labor kingpin John “Johnny Doc” Dougherty

Maybe it's just me, but the nickname makes him sound mobbed up.
