The May Day Indoctrination Playbook

Randi Weingarten and The Ugly Truth

Randi Weingarten is furious that we're telling the world about the unethical use of her union's funding to subsidize her new anti-American book. Siena dives into a recent Freedom Foundation report that uncovered that the AFT spent over $1.4 million in member dues to write, edit, and promote Weingarten's personal vanity project — and her only response was a press release full of personal attacks. Even worse, the very next day she demanded an investigation into a CEO for doing exactly what she just did with her members' money.

I went to a Chicago Teachers Union protest

Siena went to Chicago undercover to cover the May Day protests, capturing unfiltered footage and interviews with attendees to document what was actually happening on the ground.      What she found raises serious questions about the role of unions, the presence of students at these events, and how radical ideology gets packaged in spaces deceptively framed as educational.      Unions like the Chicago Teachers Union aren't representing workers — they're indoctrination pipelines that have no problem using America's children to advance a political agenda.
