Crowd laughs and applauds the Chicago Teachers Union president after she joked about killing the rich.
It is the audience that counts: The attendees at a labor event laughed and applauded the president of the Chicago Teachers Union when she joked about killing the rich.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

The sad part is that this isn’t some nut making comments on an internet forum someplace, it comes from the top of the union power structure, is common of all union leadership, and these people are also at the top of the Democrat power structure. It is scary that they want to use violence for political gain but even scarier that they actually do use it.
Would be nice if our media would call them out on it.
Here in Chicago, those of us NON-Kool-Aid drinkers regard Karen Lewis as a total joke and an embarrassment. She’s a full-on Socialist, as you can tell from her comment about the “rich” not letting us “legislate away” their wealth – what kind of mindset is THAT ?? Obviously, a Marxist one! And Chicago teachers are among the highest paid in the nation, the average is somewhere around $77,000, plus pensions & great benefits, with 2 1/2 months off every summer – not to even mention that with all the $$ they get, our schools are among the worst in the country. I have no idea how much SHE’S making as Union President, but you can bet if the AVERAGE teacher’s at 77K, it’s WAY more than that, well into the 100s of thousands, so she has a lot of nerve harping about “Rich people” – she’s in the 1% herself, no joke.
UPDATE re; Chicago Teacher’s Union President Karen Lewis’ salary, I found THIS from the Chicago Sun-Times (the more “Liberal” of the 2 – Trib USED to be Conservative, but no more – they endorsed Obama)::
◆ Last month, Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis called for “transparency” about Chicago Schools chief Jean-Claude Brizard’s salary and threatened to file a Freedom of Information request to get it.
◆ The turn of the screw: So how come Lewis’ salary is so secret?
◆ Explanation: Sneed inquired last week about her salary and was told “I don’t know,” by top Lewis spokeswoman Liz Brown. Her salary is not publicly listed, and Sneed was told: “She doesn’t have to do so.”
Which of course means many folks would be outraged at how high it is – draw your own conclusions…
