@CFA_News Or maybe those emails where they kept asking what they should say during public comment because they didn't have a clue?
@CFA_News It's beyond exhausting to fight w/ those who set themselves out as allies. This, right here, is a great example of why I always go out of my way 2 distinguish between rank & file union members & union leadership. The former r the heart & blood, the latter r cutting off the oxygen
