Apparently, the professional handlers at the RNC Convention wanted to control what Teamsters Union President Sean O’Brien said at the convention. O’Brien called President Trump about it, and Trump told him to say whatever he wanted to say, “I don’t give a f**k what you say.”
Tucker Carlson interviews O’Brien about the decision to follow the requests of his union members in supporting President Trump. WATCH:

“the professional handlers at the RNC Convention wanted to control what Teamsters Union President Sean O’Brien said at the convention.”
Most of the deceived sheeple listen and believe the programmed dung they are being fed.
Ephesians 5:11-16 KJV
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. [12] For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. [13] But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
[14] Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. [15] See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, [16] Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
I was so glad when I heard the Teamsters Union endorsed Trump – Oh… wait…
He is everything he accuses the Dem party of being…
I’m curious if you even listened to the interview?
It was good. He’s aware that many of his members no longer relate to anything the democrat party is touting and he made a point of highlighting how he and his VP were personally offended by high level democrat politicians.
This past election indicates that there is a huge shift in the working class electing republican candidates, most importantly as CIC. Thank you, Donald Trump.
It seems foolhardy to offend the teamsters and throw them back at the D party. Just sayin’.
Surprisingly, yes I did listen to the entire interview. I’ve learned to pay attention more to what is done much more than what is said. His union members stated clearly and plainly they preferred Trump. Did he, as the union leader, endorse Trump? During the interview did he openly support Trump’s agenda? Or… did he simply nag about the dems shortcomings? He’s a traitor to his union members. He hasn’t openly supported Trump like the Longshore union leader has done. All O’Brien has done jack his jaws and complain about how poorly the demos have treated him. Cry me river.
Feel free to point out any incorrect statements I have made.
I also heard the entire interview and must admit you’re entirely correct. These union guys think so highly of themselves and Tucker never pushes back on guests’ BS. Ask him why the hell do the Teamsters need to represent public sector workers in the first place.
Public employee unions were created by a Kennedy EO, just as FDR stole the wealth of the citizenry in 1933 in an EO, Nixon took the US off the int’l gold standard, Lincoln “passed” the 13th Amendment by EO, Barky did DACA by completely fraudulent “executive ACTION”, etc.
I hate EOs, hated that P. Trump used them so often. They usurp the legislative prerogative of Congress, and they are FORBIDDEN BY LAW from use as a legislative tool/Separation of Powers.
They must be seriously restricted as to use. The President MAY NOT MAKE LAW.
If you “listened to the entire interview” then you would not have written what you wrote, IF you were being honest.
Sean praised Trump throughout the interview, for Trump responding positively to requests to speak or interview, for listening intently, for being courteous and for understanding the problems of ordinary working people such as those represented by organized labor. He said clearly he did not agree with all of PDJT’s positions (he didn’t specify which ones) or answers to their 16 questions in Sean’s “candidate interview” earlier this year.
Sean is obviously trying to stay neutral to particular politicians or even to any party while representing the workers in the union. He admitted several times to Tucker’s prodding that he and his family and friends have been solid Democrats for generations. But he is saying the DemoRats left him, he didn’t leave them. You are seeing the reactions of a man who has been betrayed such that he’s not going to publicly endorse ANYONE. That does NOT say who he voted for.
“You are seeing the reactions of a man who has been betrayed such that he’s not going to publicly endorse ANYONE. “
I infer by your comment that O’brien is afraid to lead – he should step down. Leaders take the hit and continue to lead, i.e. – Trump 7/13/24.
No, I wrote precisely what I meant. Nothing was “implied”.
What you “infer” beyond what I posted is solely your own.
Merry Christmas.
I thought we were done pretending – guess I was wrong.
Poor o’l Sean getting beat up that’a way by them nasty o’l dems.
Anyway… I hope you and yours have had a merry Christmas and happy New Year.
Most union leaders are beholden to the machinations of politicians.
They are beholden to each other.
It’s a circle _____ fill in the blank)
Both sides benefit nicely from that arrangement.
There is something weird going on.
Sean has his hands full. They need more members to keep their pension solvent. Democrats already bailed them out once. And then there’s the division within the ranks. The Brotherhood doesn’t matter anymore. Members attacking members for their political beliefs. That’s where I and others come into play. There’s a lot of leftest still. Social media enables a constant reminder of the lefts policies. They particular hate being reminded that they lost the election, I ask them to cheer up, for they still have their Drag Queen Story Hour, and constant reminders that their Transgender children can still get affirming surgery. Although they’re outnumbered, they still exist.
Yeah. I’m a Teamster that hates the Union policies. After 28 years as a diesel mechanic my body was shot. I started driving truck in 2015 joining Teamsters construction division in 2018. The healthcare is amazing at only $100 month which are my monthly dues. I’m init for the healthcare insurance. 1 more year for me then early retirement.
I’m really surprised i have been kicked out yet. I was fired from a job for hurting a union stewards feelings. I was constantly being asked to attend a union meeting and finally one day i snapped. Told the steward that I had no intentions of wasting my time watching Democrats hump each others legs in an attempt to produce a transgender. He went to the company HR with what is said. The rest is history and is was working for a different company, on the same job within 5 hours. LOL.
I do hope the Lord will forgive me. I know it’s wrong to laugh at and mock them. It’s become entertaining to me.
👍👍
It may be wrong, but in my opinion, they deserve to be mocked.
I was in the Teamsters for twenty years,then went to Railroad retired a engineer. People that Bad mouth the unions know little about them ,why and what caused their formation. Sweat shops and the likes of southern cotton mills,they worked poor kids like dogs.If you lived in a mill village,you bought your coal Ice and shopped at the company store,and if by chance it was a big mill that had a power house you bought your electric power from them.Socialism by capitalist. The teamster President left out one scumbag.Ted Kennedy was one but the other rat that got the freight deregulation bill passed was ,the scumbag Larry Mc Donald. look The man that puts up his money to start a business deserves a return on his money,but if he needs me to make that return happen . Then I deserve a good return on my life. If you ever notice the anti union folks are usually the worthless riders on the top.
I have some sympathy for unions. I see (legal) immigrants being treated horribly by their employers. Too often, greedy or thoughtless owners violate labor laws with impunity. Many immigrants are unaware of their rights. Greedy employers disgust me. Right now, employees in Amazon warehouses are expected to work in conditions from 36 to 96 degrees. I think when management shows appreciation and respect for their employees, they needn’t worry about being unionized.
That said, I have huge problems with unions. They tend to give slackers a safe space. Unions make it too hard to fire people who are lazy and irresponsible and it’s difficult to reward people who go the extra mile. My second problem with unions is they go into things that are directly none of their business, like gay marriage, subsidized child care, etc. And while they’re focusing on things not directly related to their members’ jobs, they’re not focusing on things which could minimize the offshoring of manufacturing. National unions’ leadership sucks as much as any greedy owner or power hungry politician.
both of your examples are correct.My problem was covering for the lazy employee,and sticking their nose in business other than union business, Then we had the leader grifters..
Well said.
The whole theory of unions is based on “solidarity” which is just socialism. The productive workers are held back to enable the lazy and lame to keep their jobs. The payoff was after a 30 year career, so seniority is everything.
O’Brien mentioned the seniority of his position in the interview.
Ditto, i too am conflicted on unions in modern times… My dad & grandad were UMW their whole lives; latter started working in a coal mine when he was twelve(1916), shoveling coal on his side in shafts too short to stand up in, didn’t see daylight sometimes for a month or more, retired early with black lung, and btw never voted till he was sixty when civil rights act passed(poll tax prevented). But over the decades, some unions seem to have lost their way vis a vis their original purpose, and their leaders were corrupted.
Unions were corrupted very early on by Communist infiltration, and organized crime.
My father was a first level foreman for much of his career in a UAW shop. He hated the union. As he related, you tell someone to do something and the first thing out of their mouth was “not in my job description” and second was “I want my steward”. That company and its thousands of jobs is now out of business. Hope the union is happy as now the old shops have been converted to retail with their $13/hr jobs.
Still using grievances from 100+ years ago to people who are long dead, by people who are long dead, grievances that are now outlawed and energetically denounced by one and all… to alibi away real abuses happening today and every day by and to people today? Hard core union loyalists are exactly like BLM in that way.
If you want a “good return”, buy some stock. That’s how you get a good return.
Look, your labor isn’t worth but a pittance of what the CEO gets. Your workday isn’t the same, the stress, the responsibility, the stockholder accountability, the extremely costly regulatory compliance. You don’t function on the same level, so you don’t get paid nearly as much.
If you want to be paid more, then increase your skills, your hours, your solutions value. I. e., make yourself more valuable, & you’ll get paid more.
It’s simple. I mentored young black kids when I retired, and everyone who followed my advice got advanced in position & pay very quickly, because I taught them how to make themselves a valuable business asset.
It’s the complete opposite of your entitlement attitude, and it works EVERY TIME.
There is a place for unions, just as there is a place for health insurance. However, both institutions suffer from too much government meddling. Simply stated, health insurance exists for those who cannot or will not pay for their own health care. And unions exist in industries that have crappy management. Pay cash for your health care and remove the need for health insurance and government control. Install talented leaders in management positions and eliminate the need for unions and more government meddling.
Now THAT was funny…about the humping…LOL
We were at the other side of unions…employed laborers, electricians, plumbers, operating engineers. We had to train them to do our work so only benefit to us was job site access but the unions stopped enforcing that..allowing non-union competitors to compete against us. After decades of paying union wages and benefits we went out of business.
Then my husband started a business that only used contracted airplane pilots – so much easier.
It was, in the last analysis, the intransigent unions who refused to take a bit less on contracts, to get our marvelous Pan American World Airways out of bankruptcy.
Not the sole source of problems, but I believe that the unions were the crowning blow. I will forever hate them for that
Pure Trump!!
Always MAGA 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
The Democrats talk to the Teamsters like they were the housekeepers.
The Democrats talk to the Republicans like they were the butlers.
The Democrats told Andreessen that there were going to be 2 or 3 corporations in any sector.
Kind of obvious who the totalitarian is? When you lie about and don’t care how the economy performs, you are more like China than the old US.
Done with Josh Hawley.

Israel First
He’s just a younger version of McConnell
“Israel first”, as opposed to what, exactly?? It’s been Ukraine First, and other “1sts”, before Israel.
Or are you just another Jew-hater??
“Israel first”, as opposed to what, exactly??”
As opposed to “America first.” And yes, “Ukraine first” has also been ahead of America.
America has been relegated to 5th or 6th place (or lower) by the Globalist DemoCraps & Uniparty RINOs.
After his stint as an enlisted in the Navy, my dad joined the telecommunication monopoly Bell Telephone as a lineman. He joined the CWA, and was a union loving Democrat for many years. Bell got split up, and the pieces had to compete, and the unions got bigger, and bigger, and expensive. Then the pieces of Bell started buying each other (Verizon) and spinning off pieces; And when it was time for the union to represent my dad in a merger, the workers got pink slips vs “golden parachutes”. All that union chat was for naught, and my dad “woke up” about who the unions were actually benefitting.
And in my formative teenage years, I got a real life dose of the problems with regulated monopolies, collectivism, forced associations, and corrupt leadership. And I saw how unions loved to talk, but it was just another “club” that makes leadership rich. The actual workers that needed protection were getting scraps.
I agree completely. I was in a union while working for an airline. When I most needed their representation, they were worthless.
Yet the union dues came out of my paycheck month after month. Unions are in it for themselves. Not for the workers they pretend to represent.
Unions are just as bad as government bureaucracies , if not worse . Never trust anybody with your money .
I was a steward in a former life. After many battles with management, I figured out the rank and file were only interested in the contract to the degree it benefited them personally. Final straw, I was put in a scenario where individuals were manipulating contract concessions to benefit themselves personally to the detriment of the larger shop.
After discussion of the problem created, the Executive Board backed the selfish b^&%*RDs and everyone else paid the price. I resigned.
Yep, for sure.
Speaking of unions. The public employee unions need to be obliterated. Absolutely no need for them. While your at it terminate all teachers unions. What a nightmare they have become. These unions are also the number one problem with government deficits and unfunded liabilities due to their bloated pensions. Buying votes from employment date to grave so to speak.
Amen
Yes!! You know that it was a Kennedy EO that created public employee unions, right?
They Civil Service Act was later put into law, but why couldn’t P. Trump do another EO to rescind that original EO, followed by legislation?
Most folks I know HATE PE unions!
“You better get on board” Kamala attitude that mirrors the imploding party, and they STILL don’t get it.
I am listening to the Rumble version right now:
https://rumble.com/v626bvt-ill-win-with-or-without-you-teamsters-union-president-reveals-kamala-harris.html
At about 10:30 minutes in he talks about how he could care less about what the polls say. He says his polls are what his members are telling him. He has his finger on the pulse.

President Trump says much the same thing at his rallies whenever he tales a free poll.
Last week someone posted an interview of Rep. Brad Wenstrup, and it was great except for about 24 minutes in where Brad brings up how they brought in loser Frank “Lumpy” Luntz to do his dog and pony show to figure out what the people want on a certain health issue.
The name alone triggered me, piled atop the fact that our taxpayer $$$ are still being spent on this toxic man and his b.s. The DOGE dudes need to put this man on the NO BUY/NO PAY list, meaning the gubt and their paid contractors are not allowed to hire him, ever again. It’s disgusting. He’s disgusting.
MTG just last week put out an immediate poll to her constituents on X. What is the matter with Brad Wenstrup that he cannot do the same thing? There are hundreds of ways and apps to do this and most are FREE.
PLUS, you can get this polling for free if you just talk to your constituents. It’s your job! If his staff can’t do this by now, FIRE THEM!
I bet you won’t find Lumpy on Rand Paul’s Festivus Report, but he should be on there. He is like the Nathan Wade of the UNIParty, and just as corrupt.
Also, the expensively printed big poster boards have to go.
They are laughable. Someone is making a ton of money for this crap. Follow the wasted money.
This is almost 2025. These went out in 2000. Learn how to use Powerpoint or something, anything more professional and visual and USEFUL. On your own. If you or your staff cannot handle that, you’re all fired.
This was another great interview on Tucker’s show. I watch more of Tucker Carlson’s shows than any other Media show. Looking forward to Sean O’Brien’s ‘A Better Bad Idea’ podcasts starting in 2025.
One question. Why is O’Brian still a democrat?
Post-election hope for America?
Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Labor is a favor to this guy and what he stands for.
Amazon will be “brought to its knees” sooner than later.
Yep, you really have to listen to his terminology to hear what’s he’s REALLY SAYING, and it’s STILL THUG-TALK!
