That was after telling everyone on Union Power Radio that he voted no.

People now don't like the unpleasant truth. How many hours did you spend in the reform movement in 2013? How much money did you spend in 2013? How much disrespect did you feel from people you were fighting? Were you fired, accosted, assaulted?

You are obviously clueless as to what Richard did to the movement in 2013. Guess you didn't know that Mr Hooker was thrown out of the Vote No pages including mine. He then made up a name (Jesse Smith) to re-enter those pages to go back to berating people who were voting no to the contract. This is ok to you? His friend, who was also thrown out of those pages Clarence Bagby did the same under the name Kris Kogan. Mr. Bagby used a distorted picture of Richard Hooker, so he knew and condoned his actions of accusing me of being a rapist. That's funny because he has a domestic assault charge and was posting pictures of himself shooting guns (a felony). He even went to the extremes of using his wife's account with a different name to attack me and a person who put up a GoFundMe for myself after being terminated for something that was utterly false.

I have never mentioned this publicly until now. There were a handful of members of Local 623 that met with Bill Hamilton secretly while Mr Hamilton was pushing these concession filled contracts under the guides of Hoffa. What Bill Hamilton offered was to help these people to defeat the current administration at Local 623. That was a huge stab in the back to the reform movement. The people who met with Bill Hamilton in strict confidence were Richard Hooker, Clarence Baby, Bobby Curry, Ron Venit, James Hughes and few others. Is that ok to you? Meeting with a Hofficer behind closed doors knowing he was one of the worst offenders when it came to selling the members out is forgivable? You don't find the YouTube videos of Mr. Hooker talking about Principal Officers being "transparent" obtuse?

Why the hell is everyone on this forum bashing O'brien (rightfully so) without even telling the truth on others? Is the truth now inconvenient?

Hey Fudd... Don't you just love all these fake names? Your picture is there to show who you are. My screen name is obvious. I guess all our work was futile.

Ok... Then let's stop talking about what O'brien did 10 years ago. For all these years O'brien, Hall, Hamilton, and the list goes on did an injustice to us. That would include Richard Hooker. So, if you don't want to admit that he also did what the rest did, then apparently you don't want to be forthright.

I don't know who you are nor where you come from but I will say this, 2013 was the worst contract in Teamster history and Sean O'brien AND Richard Hooker were a part of it.

I can list a ton of names of people who relied on that good healthcare. That is why they sacrificed themselves in grueling heat and cold at odd hours to keep it. Now they are in over their heads with medical invoices they never had to pay.

I don't know about you but I fought the good fight. The bad people won. Now, we have parasites coming out of the smoke (IE Greg Kerwood) to push these same people and act like nothing was ever done wrong. And this asshole (Kerwood) has the audacity to say 2018 was the worst contract ever? Fuck him, Fuck O'brien, Fuck Zuckerman, and Fuck all the rest who kissed Hoffa's ass.

Isn't this what you said June 13th?.....

Seems to be a lot of online experts out there . There are lot of newbie's out there who seem to know a little about a lot. History is being rewritten..

So, why the change?
