Who gives a rat’s ass about Jimmy Hoffa and the Teamsters

I noticed a spike in visitors to the site today and I assumed they were looking for my reaction to the announcement that the Teamster’s are mounting a “grass roots” campaign to have Secretary of Transportation “fired”!
My reaction? Who gives a rat’s ass! We’ve grown used to the lies and exaggerations of this group when anything concerning the Cross Border program is brought up.
We’ve listened to Hoffa’s whining and his allegations without proof about the program. And now, like a child, he resorts to character assassination of a good woman doing the job she was hired to do.
Seems to me he is a little worried that his frivolous lawsuit will fail next week in 9th Circuit.
We’ll wait and see what they decide. And if they decide for the plaintiff’s, then anyone who thinks Mexican trucks will disappear from the roadways of this nation, is living in a bubble.
As for the effort to defame Ms Peter’s? I seriously doubt we’ll be seeing many of the bumper stickers and window signs. Because like the Cross Border Program, it is of interest to a select few who object to anything that has any connection to Mexico.
And perhaps it’s time Jimmy Hoffa Jr joined his daddy. The world would be a better place
