Bernie: CIVILITY!! NORM!!
I didn't inject myself full of nanomachines to not challenge people to fights!
Relatable.
god i wish they would fight
A labor leader with 18 years in union administration has admittedly probably gotten soft, but I got 10 on a teamster every time.
Someone who ever did work is typically still fitter than someone who never did (injury aside)
oh no question money on teamster
Nah they’re probably, like, training in secret to be a badass old person, Iroh style, so they can specifically do violence. I choose to believe!
It’s what i do
There’s a line that Sean O’brien frequently says: “Fighting for workers is a full-contact sport”. He says it to conclude his speeches and he has it in his twitter bio.
Despite it being a clear violation of labor law, he’s been on record advocating for “boston pickets”
My headcanon is that Sean is ancestor of Starfleet Chief Miles.
boston pickets
Never heard that term, but based on what some of my family in Local 25 have to say about O’Brien, I assume it means getting physical?
Yes lol
Hell yeah. Labor Law is bullshit.
When I go to jail, my indictment will have the words “temporary injunction” and “tresspass” on it
sit-down strikes 4 eva
“Girl, I roll 1.3 million dues payers deep. A threat to one is a threat to all, motherfucker, come get some.”
Historically, challenging the Teamsters to a fight doesn’t end well for whoever challenged the Teamsters too a fight. Hope you didn’t need those kneecaps
Teamsters don’t fuck around. They had our backs when we did a strike years ago. Company caved once the Teamsters got involved. Love them forever.
Sean O’Brein is from Medford and was born into an Irish Catholic Teamsters family. I have family in Local 25, them boys can scrap.
Sean O’brien
willing to fight a Klingon on the picket line
e: also this would be a great UFC promotional match, O’brien’s proceeds could go to the union coffers even, probably the only way for this to go down without some federal charges
ee:
After continued back-and-forth on social media between the two after the original March incident, Sen. Mullin challenged the Teamsters president to a charity MMA fight. "MMA fight for charity of our choice. Sept 30 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I’ll give you 3 days to accept,” Mullin tweeted.
2016 Bernie would have told O’brien to stand down because assaulting a US Senator is a Federal felony. Then he would have said, “I’ll do it” and bludgeoned the shit out of Mullin with a podium, Via Getty style.
No, no, I want to see some asshole whose entire career is selling skidoos take on the champion of the Teamsters. Let them cook.
so much for Senator Bernie Sanders stepping into the ring with a folding metal chair
Bernie: “Gentlemen! You can’t fight in here! This is the war room!!!”
Something very cool almost happened
always trying to stop funny violence
