Shocker.
MILWAUKEE, Wis. – A Wisconsin based-union front group that has referred to police as racists, animals, and killers has among its major donors the nation’s largest teachers union, according to a U.S. Department of Labor report filed in late November.
Wisconsin Jobs Now has taken a prominent role in organizing anti-police protests in the Milwaukee area since shortly after the November elections.
With protests ranging from so-called “die-ins” to illegally blocking major freeways during rush hour, the radical labor coalition has made the Milwaukee Police Department the target of their efforts following the shooting death of a mentally ill man who attacked a Milwaukee police officer with the officer’s own baton.
Milwaukee District Attorney declined to charge the officer involved in the shooting, determining that the officer was acting in self-defense after the mentally ill man took his baton and began hitting the officer with it.
