Resolving the strike against General Motors may be harder because of an internal corruption scandal inside the @UAW dailysign.al/30ofocK via @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal
@UAW @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal Vance Pearson, 58, the UAW’s Region 5 director, was arrested and charged Thursday with embezzlement, money laundering, and other offenses as part of a federal investigation, according to a report in the Detroit Free Press.
@UAW @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal Pearson attended the union negotiations with General Motors on Sunday, which was three days after he was charged by federal prosecutors, the Detroit News reported.
@UAW @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal Andrew Donohue, a special agent with the Labor Dept, said in an affidavit the investigation had found evidence of a “multi-year conspiracy” by UAW officials who sought to embezzle union funds for the purpose of acquiring “luxury items and accommodations” for their personal use.

Small Efforts Can’t Stop Congressional Gridlock Or The Deep State newswithviews.com/small-efforts-…
When a government grows more powerful, as the American government has, its power feeds upon itself and it becomes arrogant and secretive. The more secretive it becomes the more it will silence those who want to expose the secrecy.
It becomes a power unto itself and eventually, it will refuse to recognize any restraints or limits. We are dangerously close to this condition, if in fact we aren’t there already. The final condition is absolute power.

There’s No Difference Between Beto’s And Other Democrats’ Gun Bans thefederalist.com/2019/09/18/why…
O’Rourke’s support for gun confiscation is not an outlier, it is pervasive in the Democrat Party. In addition to O’Rourke, at least four other Democrats who participated in the third debate have come out for confiscating guns too.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), leader of the effort in Congress to impose a ban that is much more severe than the anemic one she authored in the early 1990s, has also come out for confiscation

The U.S. Doesn't Need An Afghanistan Deal. We Just Need To Leave thefederalist.com/2019/09/18/don…
We don’t need permission from either the Taliban or our Afghan client government to withdraw U.S. troops and end American participation in Afghanistan’s intractable civil war. Trump can bring our forces home without a deal.
Negotiations are nice, but withdrawal is the real goal. To paraphrase an original American winner, the late Oakland Raiders owner and coach Al Davis: On Afghanistan, “Just leave, baby.”

National news outlets are much more aggressive in seeking records from Trump's @EPA than they were in the final years of the Obama administration, reports @KevinMooneyDC in a @DailySignal exclusive today. dailysign.al/2M2Myei
@EPA @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal For example, @nytimes submitted 59 FOIA requests to @EPA in 2017 and 36 in 2018, up from 2 during Obama’s last year. They're just one of many news organizations that have changed their approach dramatically since Trump took office.
@EPA @KevinMooneyDC @DailySignal @nytimes At @EPA, FOIA requests from major media outlets have increased significantly under Trump compared to Obama.

This Day in Labor History: May 23, 1950. The United Auto Workers and General Motors agreed to a 5-year contract called the Treaty of Detroit. Let's talk about this agreement that gave workers lots of money and benefits, but ended the period of unions challenging capitalism.
In the aftermath of World War II, the United Auto Workers was one of the nation’s strongest unions. After a raucous period of internal dissension, Walter Reuther emerged as the union’s undisputed leader, with his brothers Victor and Roy at his side.
There would be plenty of opposition to Reuther, both from his left and his right, but he was the most prominent and important face of American labor in the 1950s and 1960s.

Not only will this do physical harm to young people, this places vulnerable youth at risk of being sexually groomed. dailysign.al/2vXzePr via @JDaniel_Davis @DailySignal
Not only will this do physical harm to young people, having worked extensively w/ young people in psychiatric residential treatment who were Seriously Emotionally Disturbed, & having worked w/ Survivors & Predators, this places vulnerable youth at risk of being sexually groomed.
For those who have worked professionally with troubled teens, with kids who have been sexually victimized, there is NO question that they are susceptible to the powers of persuasion by predators. And, for those who have worked with predators, this is the perfect avenue to groom.

Though this is a complex & ongoing #investigation, it’s clear the DNC has not been open & transparent—for what reason we don’t yet know. This is a poignant example of why we need new laws to open up the finances of our elected representatives.
