General Trumka

Speaking like a general ordering his troops into battle, AFL-CIO boss Richard Trumka has pledged 12 million union workers to the Van Jones progressive Tea Party.

Van Jones, the avowed communist who was ousted from the Obama Administration, plans to start his own version of the Tea Party. The Tea Party, however, started as a bottom up movement to change the country. Van Jones is a top down movement that promises to be fully funded by big labor but will certainly end up as a cheap and failed copy.
