Tell me more about this TDU origination?
Ok, stared about 40 years ago by a guy that was a teamster for a year and has been on a lifetime withdrawal card. He and his group were investigated by the FBI for trying to overthrow the government. In the TDU offices, there are zero teamsters working. Their finances are kept a huge secret. They charge a fee for information on the IBT website. They ahere to the believe structure of communism. They use the philosophies of Nazi propagandist Joseph Geobbles to discredit our international union. They charge a fee to any TDU run local, depending on the size. It comes out to about $5 per member. It's on the LM2 as "Teamsters Education and Legal defense fund". So for a local with about 6000 members, it comes out to 30k a year of dues money that is donated. There isn't a membership vote because it's classified as "education". it's a laundering scheme. They take the money and run the encumbants election campaign.
