You may remember James O’Keefe - he was the guy that secretly videoed ACORN officials and caused that agency to be defunded. He also did those Planned Parenthood videos with them making money by selling aborted baby parts to medical companies. His current focus is New York City teachers unions and he scored big.
From the New York Post:
Teachers union would rather cover up abuse than protect our kids
‘It’s always the union’s fault,” said Patricia Puleo, the president of the Yonkers Federation of Teachers. Truer words have never been spoken by a union leader.
Gonzo journalist James O’Keefe has done it again, stinging YFT officials into helping a “teacher” who admitted he hit a student, used a racial epithet and fled to Mexico.
His hidden cameras caught Puleo and another union official advising fraud and violations of workplace rules to a man they thought was a teacher who’d hit a student.
O’Keefe’s video confirmed what many already know — and the late United Federation of Teachers leader Al Shanker acknowledged, “I don’t represent children. I represent teachers.”
Unaware they’re being filmed, Puleo and her deputy Paul Diamond look utterly unconcerned about harm to the student as they focus on helping the “teacher” keep his job.
Not once in the 17-minute video does Puleo or Diamond talk of notifying authorities about the child abuse. They, instead, pretend to discuss a theoretical situation — plainly, to protect themselves from officially learning damning details — and suggest scenarios where the “teacher” can come out OK.
Unions very much had their place in American history. They were a force for good. Now they have become complacent and fat and have started meddling in the political arena which they are not, by law, supposed to do. There is a lot more at James' website: Project Veritas
