Flashback: The AFL-CIO and Organized Crime

Flashback to 1980 when even left-wing Mother Jones couldn't close their eyes to organized crime and the AFL-CIO:
In the ninth-largest member union of the AFL-CIO, four officials have been murdered. Hitmen planned to dispose of one intended victim's body by feeding it to sharks The union's entire national health & safety department consists of one man, part-time. Millions of dollars in pension & health benefit funds have been siphoned off. Mafia control of the Laborers Union is so complete, so ruthless, it could teach the Teamsters a few lessons
What the AFL-CIO and Richard Trumka hopes you don't remember.
