Last year, LGF had an assigned operative from the AFL-CIO whose job was to spread Islamist/progressive propaganda, and it was stupid enough to use an account easily traceable to AFL-CIO headquarters in Washington, DC. After this person/robot was banned under the name “adam_dc,” he/she/it registered the name “lynn.thule” and tried to continue his/her/its deception.

After being caught twice, they apparently gave up.

Tonight comes news that the AFL-CIO is imploding. (Hat tip: Ron.)

CHICAGO (AP) - The AFL-CIO succumbed to division Sunday, with its largest union deciding to bolt the 50-year-old federation and three others poised to do so in a dispute over how to reverse organized labor’s long slide.

The four unions, representing nearly one-third of the AFL-CIO’s 13 million members, announced Sunday they would boycott the federation’s convention that begins Monday. They are part of the Coalition to Win, a group of seven unions vowing to reform the labor movement - outside the AFL-CIO if necessary.

The Service Employees International Union, with 1.8 million members, plans to announce Monday that it is leaving the AFL-CIO, said several labor officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the developments.

The Teamsters union also was on the verge of disaffiliating, and would likely to be the first to follow SEIU’s lead, the officials said. Two other boycotting unions were likely to leave the federation: United Food and Commercial Workers and UNITE HERE, a group of textile and hotel workers.

“Our differences are so fundamental and so principled that at this point I don’t think there is a chance there will be a change of course,” said UFCW President Joe Hansen.

“Our differences have become unresolvable,” said Anna Burger, chairman of the Change to Win Coalition which is setting itself up to be a rival of the AFL-CIO. “Today will be remembered as a rebirth of union strength in America.”
