“Insulting”- Labor Unions That Endorsed Biden Now Lashing Out At Him
thegatewaypundit ^ | 1 23, 2021

Posted on 01/24/2021 12:29:28 PM PST by MarvinStinson

Joe Biden has already made labor unions regret their support for him.

During his first day in office, Biden revoked the construction permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, destroying thousands of jobs.

TC Energy Corp., the Canadian company sharing ownership of the pipeline with the Alberta government, had estimated that 10,000 jobs would be created in 2021 thanks to the construction of the pipeline.

A total of 42,000 jobs were to be filled once the pipeline was completed.

The Laborer’s International Union Of North America issued this statement:

“The Biden decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit on day one of his presidency is both insulting and disappointing to the thousands of hard-working LIUNA members who will lose good-paying, middle-class family-supporting jobs,”

“By pandering to environmental extremists, a thousand union jobs will immediately vanish and 10,000 additional jobs will be foregone.”

This comes after LIUNA bragged about pushing Biden “over the top” in 2020:

The North American Building Trades Union said:

“North America’s Building Trades Unions are deeply disappointed in the decision to cancel the Keystone XL permit on the President’s first day in office. Environmental ideologues have prevailed, and over a thousand union men and women have been terminated from employment on the project.

Tens of thousands of workers are left to wonder what the future holds for them. In the midst of a pandemic that has wreaked havoc on the economic security of tens of millions more, we must all acknowledge the uncertainty and anxiety this government action has caused.”

The United Association Of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters released this statement:

“In revoking this permit, the Biden Administration has chosen to listen to the voices of fringe activists instead of union members and the American consumer on Day 1.”

Oh they've learned. I'm sure there were some well-greased palms who have learned to act shocked and betrayed after the fact.

If they want to be extra stupid and vote to destroy themselves...that’s one thing. But when they vote to destroy the rest of us (who were smart enough and told them not to) ....well....

I'm gonna laugh when Biden says he has done additional research and the pipeline will go on.

He's really ticked off a lot of people.....a LOT of people.

Biden told them what he was going to do.

Perhaps they were counting on the Big Guy to forget what he promised to do.

in less than one week, Biden has ticked off:
Mexico, Canada, Australia, the Brits, Russia, Iraq, Guatamala, Honduras, school girls (sports), women, white men subject to CRT ‘training’, Republicans, Antifa, labor unions, the energy sector, the farming sector, the IT sector, the elderly, indian tribes on three sides of the border, BLM, business owners, Border Patrol/ICE, people expecting fat $2K checks, and the NG/military.

Next week: the rest of the world.

No skin off the union bosses’ noses. They will be fine.
The stoopid grunts who did what they were told and voted ‘D’, though... Well, you had best learn to code.

Another edition of the story of the scorpion and the frog. Only this time the frog (LIUNA) totally forgot the scorpion’s (Zhou Bai-den) basic nature & never even bothered to extract a promise that the scorpion would not sting.
