    When I went to Trenton to hand out vote no literature, and got assaulted by their business agents, there was a woman that waited till the agents turned their backs to give me a thumbs up. That's how most people act towards their members. Let's not forget that the original founder of the vote no page was threatened with his job if he continued on with that Facebook group. It's aggravates me to no end that the same people I stood in solidarity with to fight these goons have turned their back on me and sided with them. Shame on TDU and shame on these cowards for sucking up to O'Brien.!
    Who owned the vote no page originally?

      Not Timlin. Mark took it over from the original Admin.

    A younger guy (name forgotten) who turned it over to Mark Timlin. I met him at his building when I gave out Vote No literature.. He worked where Glenn Kenworthy worked. He doesn't post on Facebook at all. He was approached by his union and was told if he happens to get fired, they might not be able to help him. So, he bugged out.

      The greatest disappointment was Rob Atkinson who was fired thanx to O'Brien. He forgot all about it after they gave him a job.
      The whole movement went to sh!t when they started letting the scum in. If you wore that red vest, take a seat in the back of the bus is what I always said.

        There's backlash on the other side as well. I am hearing that most old guard locals are shunning Lindsey because her involvement with TDU. She's very lucky that most of the members of 399 are oblivious about TDU. I'm hearing there are some coordinators that are forming a slate to take her out in a few years. We'll see what happens when she gets voted out and Obrien is left holding the bag to his failed leadership.

          Can you name ONE local that has the guts to stand up to O’Brien’s positioning Lyndsay to the forefront ?
