Open letter to teamsters: Hold teamsters mobilize accountable

[Cali News]

Are you surprised that these groups do nothing but talk smack? This is the latest picture from Edgar’s page. Allowing women to be called Drag queens for no reason. Shame

[Nickjamesups]

Almost as bad as holding a gun to a woman’s head! Talk about shame !

[Thisischange?]

Edgar is with Teamsters Mobilize? You are losing me here, O'brien posts a picture of a man holding a gun to a womans head and you dig up a post on an open page to equivocate what?

[Cali News]

You made my point. Neither picture is necessary. Im just pointing out that all these chat sites talk smack. But you seem to be arguing that because O’Brien posted a picture it’s then ok for people to label ladies as drag queens. Why? Because they took a picture with someone you don’t like. By the way. Who the hell is teamster mobilize?

Edgar posted this???

[Jose Francisco Negrete]

You don’t know nothing. Brent Griffin isn’t part of Teamsters Mobilize.
Tell me, what do you think of the UPS contract.

[TheMilitantTeamster]

Jose maybe if you wouldn’t have put that poo up about Tony you wouldn’t have to deal with all of this… take it down… it’s a time waster!!!

We are fighting for our jobs and this group of bullies is spreading slander about one of our main activists … teamsters Mobil needs to get a grip with the real situation

[TheMilitantTeamster]

Btw I don’t know Edgar and Tony says he’s got nothing to do with this so why is someone posting garbage about Edgar?

[Jose Francisco Negrete]

Cali News.
After reading your long winded response, I think it deserves to be addressed it multiple parts.

“Always going off course & asking pointless questions, to deflect from the subject.” Funny, you can’t answer a simply question like are you in the same local as I am, local 952.

“There’s plenty of websites that put up misinformation” do you believe is site is one of them.

You mention Edgar, about the photo you posted and it clearly states Brent Griffin. Two different people but you mention Edgar Esquivel’s name.

To answer your question if I think “women are without a doubt drag queens”, no I am NOT saying that. Don’t let that stop you from accusing me.

Who the hell is Teamsters Mobilize, thank you for that plug. You can know all about us through our socials. Then maybe you can answer it yourself .

[Cali News]

Unless I am mistaken, subject was started because of people putting misinformation out about other people. I believe that’s why a gentleman is filing a charge. I’m just saying that Edgar‘s has been a huge supporter of putting misinformation for years now. Maybe it’s because you’re not from Southern California so you don’t see it but him and his friends spread misinformation about the teamsters all around the country all the time. The picture I posted is just one example of misinformation. Calling women drag queens for no reason. Goes to show how low some people will stoop.

[Jose Francisco Negrete]

Thank you for clarifying that you are from Southern California. Tell me, are you in my local, Local 952?
Misinformation, huh. It sounds more like “if you ain’t with us, you’re against us”. Give us an example of misinformation being posted. How often do you go on 952 Teamsters United Facebook.

[Cali News]

Always going off course and asking pointless questions to deflect from the subject. Maybe I’m wrong but I think this post started because the gentleman felt that misinformation was being put out about him. That is why he is filing a charge. My point is there’s plenty of websites that put up misinformation about people involved with the teamsters every day. You ask what misinformation? I posted a picture of women being called drag queens. No again maybe I am wrong but I believe that was just posted because they are taking a picture with someone you may not like. Is that not misinformation? Are you trying to say that those women are without a doubt drag queens? If they are then I stand corrected. I believe they were just called that out of anger. If you’re not with us you’re against us? Are you referring to Teamster’s vs everybody? That is no different than the position Teamsters Mobilize Vs everyone. Agree with everything Teamster‘s mobilize says or you’re against us. Again though, who the hell is Teamster’s mobilize. Jose, I know why you are throwing your opinion in on this subject. It is you that the gentleman has brought charges up upon.

If you want to organize the base, this is not the way to do it.

[TheMilitantTeamster]

Yes teamsters mobilize have been slandering one of our strongest activists since last fall because he rightly called out the fact they have Maoist people on their leaders and then they put out this grab bag of garbage! Tony is fighting for all laid off workers. Fortunately it loos like there is a spot for him in Hillsboro so he will remain a teamster

Yeah, I don't believe Teamsters Mobliize is getting any traction or growing any support for a reformist movement espousing marxist stances or engaging in the unwinable dispute between the Palestinians and the Israelis. Most Teamsters are pissed about their own living and working conditions. Attacking and slandering a part time activist on their page does not make sense nor does it move any identifiable issue that moves members to action. Put this to bed focus on Teamsters working issues and then they might be able to mobilize Teamsters, or otherwise remain the meaningless and rudderless group that you are.

[Jose Francisco Negrete]

Dully noted. I know Teamsters are pissed about their working conditions especially when UPS is automating many hubs and the rank-and-file being sent 20, 30, 40 miles+ away. Combo jobs being cut. No new full time position in the contrary UPS not budging on filling those full time positions.

[TheMilitantTeamster]

Then why don’t you have that on your website lol lol lol

It’s a big waste of time and I don’t understand it especially as we are fighting for our lives here in Portland and Tony is laid off although back to work on Monday thankfully and fighting management and the lazy local and why attack him?? These ppl need to get their priorities in order to
