    This evil person is an admitted lliberal, progressive communist. Is he redistributing his wealth or just wants to do that with ours? What social justice? Take it away from people that earn money to give it to those who make no effort to better their lives and look for handouts? New World Order? And what would that be? A few world leaders (and I use that term loosely) that will live in unbelievable luxury while they take everything away from us except what they think we should have? Which won’t be much!

    If Trumpka isn’t mafia, he sure is missing a good chance. Besides he looks like he’s flying on cloud 21 to heck with 9. I would like to suggest that if he so worried about Egypt that he should move over there and take a personal interest in their problems.

    Trumka and other thugs like him talk about helping the “middle class” when it is quite OBVIOUS that this thug and Union bosses are all about DESTROYING the middle class! In his own words, he is not interested in negotiating wages for employees, rather Trumka is about POWER & CONTROL of the ignorant masses! Thugs like him and his elitist cohorts are ALL ABOUT POWER & CONTROL. It is BECAUSE OF UNIONS & GOVT. REGULATIONS that American corporations have fled to other countries. Liberals are ANTI-WAR, except when it FEEDS & PROMOTES their end goal! Folks like Trumka, Stern, and their socialist/commie loving buddies are PRO-REVOLUTION! I wonder how many trolls who voted for BO knew that this is what they actually voted for!

    Does anyone know history – especially the history of Feudalism – very much like our slavery and plantation owners of our past – which covered half the globe? Read up on how that is becoming the IDEAL situation here is today’s USA. Unless you are ALREADY rich and/or powerful, we will all become ‘serfs’ (slaves) to the “Plantation owners’ (the rich and powerful)

    Are you ready for that? If yes, you are lost. If NO, then unless slavery/serfs become extinct – worldwide – then we can forget about our children and grandchildren having a life OTHER THAN being a serf in the NEW FEUDALISM – here and abroad!

      In law, sedition was overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel. A seditionist is one who engages in or promotes the interests of sedition.

      Progressive constructs take on whatever shape and/or name the masses can be fooled into supporting.
      Individual lives, individual rights and human rights mean nothing to progressives.
      If Sharia Law will bring power to progressives they’re for it.

      American progressives admired Mussolini.
      The death camps in Germany were not enough to get America’s attention at that time.
      It took a direct attack by Japan to get us into WWII.

      Kosovo’s civil war was made to sound like a genocide the terms like “Ethnic Cleansing” and “Mass Graves”; so, that we would have an excuse to get involved – even though less than 4,000 people had died in the conflict up to that point.

      By contrast, progressives lambasted Bush 41 for sending troops into Somalia to try and stop a genuine genocide that was going on there. When Clinton came into power he reduced funding and weakened the supply lines while calling for a hasty exit, resulting in the heads of American Solders being dragged through the streets, and the “Black Hawk Down” incident.

      Continually, liberals and progressives pick on WMDs not being found in Iraq and blame GWB for all the “Needless” deaths in Iraq, while ignoring the fact that our actions in Iraq have freed it from a genocidal dictator that killed millions of his own people, many tortured to death.

      The fault GWB for not putting more troops in Afghanistan; but, simply adding troops has not helped matters there. Without a strategy to go along with those troops and a solid plan to get Afghans defending themselves better it’s simply becoming another long hard slog with increased us casualties and no exit plan.

      Conservatives care about individual human lives and rights; while, progressives only pay lip service.

      New world order, one world government, wealth redistribution, social justice, environmental justice, brothers and sisters…. Trumka is not about promoting a “religon”, he is all about using radicals no matter what “religion” they might be.

      The goal is an amoral open global society, “citizens of the world”, with no national borders controlled by a world wide “democracy” where the people’s decisions are always guaranteed to be “good” by a few enlightened elites. The elite’s chosen media will ensure the people are educated on issues and on proper thought. Trumka, likely a useful idiot, thinks he is one of them. Our media outlets, to earn their seats at the table, are in over drive shaping public opinion to usher in a new world order. After all it was the dream of Walter Cronkite, the news media’s idol, to see America brought under a “world governance” .

      The only problem Trumka has is to be the last man standing when the communists, socialists, anarchists, marxists, Islamists, and clueless, who have teamed up to bring Egypt and ultimately the USA down, turn on each other dividing up the booty.

      Could it be that our media is playing us like fools in Egypt now?. Do we really know who is causing the violence at this point. We only have what the media is telling us. Would they lie? Would the Muslim Brotherhood deal in treachery? Naaaa, ElBaradei, the elite’s choice, say, no way.

      Just WHO’S wealth are they going to redistribute in Egypt?? WE give them how much?? So it‘s NOT redistribute THEIR money it’s redistribute OUR money.. Unions are backed by our federal government and federal law.. they get their money from the members who if they DON‘T pay DON’T work.. Notice Union dues are tax deductible.. the UNIONS were suppose to make sure that the work place was safe.. NOW we have OSHA another government drain on the people… Here‘s what MOST people don’t get.. IF you make $5 and hour and they make the min. wage $6 an hour EVERYONE gets that raise THAN the ALL companies have to raise the prices of GOODS they sell to cover this increase and your back at square one.. I do understand that EVERYTHING has to be equal.. like people who are unemployed now who WERE living within their means until they lost their jobs and had to take a job at 1/2 of what they were making.. their house/rent .. etc didn’t go DOWN because they make less.. so there is NO way to cut back and make it.. they can quit buying..but depending on how much they bought this would NOT help out much.. it’s still in the MATH.. if you make $6 an hour and a # of beef costs $4 you have only $2 left.. IF you make $10 an hour and a # of beef cost $8 you still only have $2 left only the $2 isn’t worth as much as it was when you were making less.. These unions aren’t really thinking past how much they can line their pockets with.. Wait until people figure out that UNIONS are the rich ones and it’s their money that will be redistributed..

      “Today, unions are called to act in new ways, widening the scope of their activity of solidarity so that protection is afforded not only to the traditional categories of workers, but also to workers with non- standard or limited-time contracts… even at the international level; to those who do not have a job, to immigrants, seasonal workers…” (308)
      (Google “Vatican.va and social compendium”)

      More words from Rome’s union boss in America, Mr. Trumka:

      “John Sweeney (Trumka’s predecessor as AFL-CIO president) worked very, very hard with the Catholic Church, and I believe the Catholic Church — my church — ought to be a leader in human rights, which include workers’ rights,” Trumka said, adding that church institutions shouldn’t engage in “outrageous conduct” such as harassing workers who want to organize.”

      “I would hope the Catholic Church would be the living, shining star of the best practices,” he said.

      Trumka’s final words in the interview:

      “The lack of jobs is the first issue,” he added. “The second issue is just like it: How do make a job a good job? You make it a good job by unionizing and having collective bargaining, so that the profits made from those workers is actually shared more equitably.”

      “…so that the profits made from those workers is actually shared more equitably”

      Hmm, I wonder what made him say those words, “profits…shared more equitably?” Well, let‘s look at Rome’s Social Compendium and the “redistribution of wealth”:

      “Looking after the common good means making use of the new opportunities for the redistribution of wealth among the different areas of the planet, to the benefit of the underprivileged that until now have been excluded or cast to the sidelines of social and economic progress. The challenge, in short, is to ensure a globalization in solidarity, a globalization without marginalization” (#363)

      “…making use of the new opportunities for the redistribution of wealth… to ensure a globalization in solidarity, a globalization without marginalization”

      Obama a closet Muslim? No, I believe he is a closet Catholic. Here are his words concerning Rome’s social justice:

      “Obama: Social Justice in Catholic Church Has Had ‘Profound Influence’ on Me” – FoxNews
      (Google “obama influenced by catholic justice fox”)

      “President Obama said the Catholic Church’s long tradition of social justice has had a “profound influence” on him — just days before he is to meet with Pope Benedict XVI on his first trip to Italy.
      Obama told FOX News that he looks forward to reading the encyclical, a “circular letter” titled “Charity in Truth,” published by the Vatican.

      The encyclical — set to be published on the eve of the G8 summit — has been seen as a message from the pope to leaders of advanced nations who will convene in L’Aquila, Italy,on Wednesday.

      “Specifically, I think that social justice derives from individuals having the freedom to pursue their own ideas of happiness and pursue prosperity using their blood, sweat, and tears,” Obama told FOX News on Tuesday. “I also think that opportunities are provided to individuals through civic institutions like religious organizations. And I also (think) the government plays an important role.”

      The president said Catholicism impacted his life in the beginning of his political career when he was doing organizing work in Chicago.”

      SAY NO TO ROME

      And Obama’s getting ready to hand 50,000+ new dues payers (at $30.00/month or so) over to the unions from the TSA. More socialist “collective bargaining” power. Gee, I wonder why unions are the only ones allowed to bargain with the government for pay?

      If we are to survive we have to rid this country of all unions.

      Looking at the banner picture on the main Blaze site I noticed that, with a little mustache trim, Trumka would sure look a lot like Hitler from that camera angle. Hmmm.

      I think it would be an upgrade if these people were to be believers in a higher power. These people believe they are the higher power and they have no limitations to the evil they are capable of.

      It’s all becoming clear to me. The dots are connected and the plot it exposed. Soros, Piven, the communists and socialists, the unions, liberals, Democrats, Marxists, Stalinists, the President of the United States, lazy people and RINOs like Bill Kristol have linked with the Bilderburg group and Muslims throughout the world to overthrow the United States and impose Sharia law! Despite the horror, I have to admit it a devilish conspiracy on a scale never before seen on this, our good Earth. Why oh why did we not see what was before our very eyes until it was too late?!

      I am sorry Becky, but hte evidence you have presented does not fit the headline. Of course facts do not matter to a conspiracy theorist, just the narrative.

      Also, I guess you do not stand for the little guy, you do not stand for the american worker, but with the rest of the 10% that control 2/3′s of the nations wealth.

      The ironic part is that the tea-baggers also stand with you against their own self-interest.

      How many Anti-Catholic bigots post at the Blaze. Your post is typical of the Know-Nothings from a bygone era.

      I guess if given the chance you would have voted against Kennedy, fearing papist control of DC. Or is it that you small minded “christians” are too ignorant of the facts and can not deal with Rome pointing out the vast greed of the masters who you do the biding of. With in this nation, 10% contol 2/3‘s of country’s wealth, 1% control nearly 1/3, yet you rage against unions and blue collar workers, calling them socialist, facists and communists, Beck is providing cover for the true puppet masters.

      Oreilly blew it. This was the follow up question. Why didn’t bill ask about the people around Obama like Trumpka and Stern who have had so much access to the President and received so much money in the bailout and the buyout of GM and Chrysler who obviously believe in distribution of wealth.

      Max…China does not have to be Islamic. They will benefit from the U.S. getting weakened by a left jab, while they load up on the right. They have continued to finance us, in part, as it is weakening us by continuing the war on terror in the Middle East (not that it is not justified, as it exists)…Much as the U.S.S.R. was weakened by us secretly supporting Afghanistan in the 80’s. But if America falls, Freedom in the world is GONE and China’s position in the world just increased to number 1. China has been increasing the size and strength of their military 3-5%+ in personnel and machinery for a multitude of years now, and that is just what escapes into the public domain. Who are they gearing up for? If you connect all the events happening in the world right now, which the mainstream media never seems to do, this is all extremely concerning. China has the population alone that once the tech advantage of the U.S. is reduced or eliminated (say an EMP), they would be a formidable enemy as they can continue to throw people at the bullets until the bullets run out and they keep coming. Then you add the technology that has been sold or stolen (600 super-computers by Clinton, Los Alamos secrets stolen via a Chinese citizen who gained American citizenship and was put into an area with secretive information, etc.) that advanced their military 20-30 years. It would not surprise me to actually see them on American soil when the inevitable ‘social unrest’ begins. When $150/ barrel oil deals the death blow to an already faltering economy and people get hungry creating unrest, China can insist to maintain law under the guise of U.N. “peacekeepers”. We have also exported most of our steel industries and manufacturing base over the last 25 years to eliminate the capacity to quickly rebuild if we did rebel. This while funneling trillions of dollars to the potential enemy from our private sector in our lust for cheap products, the American citizens have helped fund the above. Now factor in the ability to make war largely resides on access to petroleum, which fuels your “war machines”, and our lack of financial stability coupled with lack of our own oil fields and you have further weakened the once great giant and have reduced the former super power (U.S.) to a country that could be beaten. Add porous borders into the mix to allow enemies to get entrenched on your soil and it will not take a 9 year war to beat us. Our National Security has been made very vulnerable by administrations on both sides of the isle for quite some time. Then Chuck is likely right, we will lose land but in an occupied state, to a foreign debtor when we have defaulted. Of course these are all likely just random unrelated events:).
