    TDU Convention, Things you won't hear:

    I'll start.

    You won't hear any kind of explanation from the podium about why President O'Brien let the secretary of labor negotiate the Rail Agreement. Preventing the Teamster Rail Unions from striking to get sick leave and other improvements.

          You won't hear why all the promises made during the OZ/TDU campaign have been broken. And you for sure won't hear why they are eliminating anyone who crosses them.

              You won’t hear the real story on why O’Brien posted that violent Facebook post shooting a female who crosses him and what exactly happened at the Unity Conference between him and Lindsay Dougherty.

                No more articles about how much the board makes at the Marble Palace.

                  You won't hear about the time that O'Brien bragged about gaining 206,000 new members, far more than any other union, but later had to revise the LM2 to show a gain of only a couple hundred.

                    That was militant organizing right there. He grew the Teamsters by 23% single handedly.....with the help of a few typos.

                      You won't hear when the MMA match between Sen Mullins and O'Lyin is because "anywhere, anytime" only applied if Mullins didn't call his bluff.

                        You won't hear about Teamster organizers handing out de-authorizarion instructions to units they can't raid from the old GCIU. This is the worst thing a Union could do. Instruct members how to not pay dues! It is union busting at its worst! First they fire 200 people without cause, no severance, no extended benefits. They bust the organizers attempt to organize as a group, and now this. Is there any doubt this is the most anti-union, destructive force in the Labor movement? The Teamsters are a disgrace.

                          You won't hear anything about running a reform slate against the old guard OZ slate in 2026. You will hear the non teamster TDU beg for money at the banquet.
