essentially that was largely roosevelt stilling and it was done because of his fight against the teamsters in minneapolis right he wanted it the only alternative to having the socialists organize the libyans was to have the mafia organize a labor unions by saying if you're you're the head of the labor unions you get to say who's hired you get the kickbacks you get everything that fitch wrote about in his study of the labor movement so it's very much like in japan when america back. against the socialist japan had a very strong socialist movement mcarthur came in backed all of the most right wing japanese militarists japanese and the gangs the gangs to fight against socialists and that's why you have japan in the story state that it's in the day when it comes to industrial on the state and the steel mills. so it's an interesting areas of focus you know the thirty's and seemingly in minneapolis i mean ok there's organized labor before but then it became a threat in a big way because the capital system was collapsing i mean i guess before that it was more of an adjunct to deal for all economy

. >>> coming up, how the teamsters union is using its clout again opioids. "power lunch" will be right back i was playing golf days ago... love golf. i used to love golf. wait, what, what happened? i was having a good round, and then my friend, sheila, right as i was stepping into the tee box mentioned a tip a pro gave her. no. yep. did it help? it completely ruined my game. well, the truth is, that advice was never meant for you. i like you. you want to show me your swing? it's too soon. get advice that's right for you. investment management services from td ameritrade. >>> with time warner, for more on this, let's bring in craig moffett. thanks a lot for phoning in, short notice we appreciate it. >> my pleasure, michelle. >> it's melissa. >> i'm sorry. >>> that they're demanding a c.n.n. sale what's your take on whether there will be asset sales? >> well, you know, we've said all along that it's likely that at&t would be president trump signaled that was his personal problem with it, so it will raise eyebrows if that's the structural fix they're looking fo

i was in youngstown, ohio, at teamsters local 377 talking to workers, maybe 200 of them in the room. mostly workers and retirees, most of them retirees who are in danger of having their pensions cut, pensions they earned over a lifetime of hard work. understand how that happens. when workers are at the bargaining table, whether it's teamsters, whether it's electricians, whether it's steelworkers, whether it's sciu, when workers are at the bargaining table, they're so often to give -- willing to give up wages today in order to have a secure retirement in five years, ten years, 20 years, for 30 years. s that -- that's what these workers chose to do whether they work for roadway over the road, whether they were working with -- for any number of companies, they were willing at the bargaining table to give up higher wages today to have money to set aside that was then invested in often in wall street. we'll get to that in a minute. it's bad in you that these workers and these pensions they earn over a lifetime of hard work, it's bad enough that wall street squandered those workers' money.

look, i do some work for the teamsters union. teamsters would love an inf infrastructure project. if it requires spending on a wall, that would introduce another thorny issue which is, a lot of people feel that the president is selectively choosing incidents to sreul tpaoeu immigrants. i don't see any evidence of the president tweeting about jesus contrares who was a dreamer, undocumented worker and as an emergency worker saved dozens of lives in the hurricanes in houston. i don't hear him talking about good immigrants. that doesn't help build a consensus around building wall. i think infrastructure would be a great way to pull democrats and republicans together. think about sharon brown. she said i will work with the trump administration if we are going to do credible reform. >> dana: we'll see if that happens and if the wall is part of the president's demands. in addition there's a story today in "the wall street journal" about how the administration under president trump is trying to basically use gerocracy to slow down pollty perspectives he has including on visas, the high sk

i serve as cannabis provision director for testimony teamsters.e tasked with the job of helping the state form regulations that take into account worker and consumer safety. looking at the proposed map the teamsters feel this map is too restrictive for the area. it's been proven that severe caps or bans actually help feed crime and maintain the illicit market. we're asking that the cannabis businesses not be choked back into the underground. withbut allow them to operate as good neighbors and open up the green space. a prime example, if you look at two distinct cities here in california sacramento has a decentfo place and they review tax and permit their cannabis businesses. in the city of sacramento, we have about 30 disbens30 dispensaries operating. in bakersfield and kearn, there are almost a hundred dispensaries where there is a ban. severely capping or banning does not help limit the businesses. in addition on a personal note, i am a mother of two. i have an 8-year-old and 9-year-old. i believe speaking open pli with them about can -- openly

so talk abut those major issues that i have teamsters in my district talking about their retirement fundsmillion the of those are contract employees and. >> we have to be out there how will we take care of people?. >> who is we? coming from the government?. >> but what is the responsibility of the employer? what is that contract that you have with them? people don't understand what you did for people. but in this stage with the student teacher ratio. and then they negotiate that but then they don't have somebody to fight for working men and women. >> so that traditional republican view but with that 2016 election showed you have a lot of people supporting president trump. those traditionally are the of right. >> but there is somebody out there if fighting for the workingman and women. that is donald trump. showing people that we show their concern. so that is what happens that they talk about them to understand that anxiety. >> president trump invited those union leaders. does he have the republican president?. >> so the question is who is on your side? in that economic populist it me tel

doug block teamsters joint council 7. i'm going to echo the comments that i made in the rules committee earlier this morning, first by starting to thank you all for going above and beyond the state standards on the employee threshhold for the labor piece agreement and to reiterate that our goal as a union has been that as this industry comes out of shadows that workers have the right to freely choose union representation. to that end, we've worked very hard to shape the delivery model for this industry. including an independent distributor between wholesale and retail. and also the requirements that deliveries be done by employees, not independent contractors, of a dispensary with a manifest for delivery. i'm encouraged to hear that there may be a solution in the works so that we will have recreational cannabis on january 1 in the city and county of san francisco. i want to thank you for your hard work in pushing for that. and i would punishmentably suggest that if a dispensary applies for one of these temporary use permi

doug block with teamsters joint council 7. thank you for being above and beyond the state on labor standards. our goal has always been if the industry comes out of the shadows, the workers can choose union representation. to that end, we worked hard to shape the delivery model for cannibis to mirror liquor and beer drivers, including independent distributor from wholesaler to retail and requirement that deliveries be done by employees of permitted dispensaries with manifest for delivery and not independent contractors and that's important because independent contractors like uber drivers don't have the right to organize. it's an anti trust violation. furthermore, drivers are frequently robbed of product and cash, there are strict product tracking requirements and there are a whole other host of reasons why an uber model, delivery model does not work. let me say since people have asked, we worked on the state regulations with ease. including working with them around the employee requirement. here in san francisco we have taken
