This union doesn’t “oversee” border patrol.
The murdered nurse was a member of AFGE, and the AFGE is affiliated with the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC). But that doesn’t mean the AFGE fully represents the NBPC. It’s a team-up to have more collective bargaining power.
If the NBPC says that their leaders should be fired, THEN shit will have really hit the fan.
Plus due to laws that restrict federal workers right to strike, federal employee unions are incredibly weak
Thanks Ronnie you fuckin mushbrain bigot
Until they strike anyway. That will strengthen their union. What are they going to do, fire EVERY government employee?
It may be cause English is not my mother tongue but isn’t it the other way around? That the NBPC is affiliated with AFGE?
(The fact that the NBPC is a member of the AFL-CIO is a shame for all the unions of the AFL-CIO)
The The AFGE is larger organization and the NBPC uses their resources and muscle.
A massive union that represents some of … immigration agents
Can we all just take a moment to have a laugh about an immigration agent UNION?
It’s an all encompassing union for federal workers that the immigration assholes just happen to be lumped into.
Alex Pretti was in it as well as a VA employee.
Oh, that makes more sense.
Honest question.
What happens after they say no?
Because they will refuse. The demanding that they quit doesn’t really have any effect does it? Sure it shows that people do not agree with their actions, but still.
As long as they refuse to leave, what is going to change? These people will not have any remorse for what happened. They might just be annoyed that it was clearly in violation of the laws that apply to the plebs, and that they (probably while rolling their eyes) will have to “apologise” for the behaviour of their, clearly overworked, understaffed and misunderstood drones.
But so what?
For them it is probably the same feeling like when the lady at the counter doesn’t give back the exact change.
I guess nothing happens if they say no. They can’t even strike, it’s illegal for them to do so.
It’s also illegal to not release the Epstein files, yet here we are.
Well the difference is that the Executive controls the enforcement of laws so they can just be selective with the enforcement. They won’t enforce the law when it comes to the Epstein files but they definitely will if the union get uppity and strikes.
And what if they do? What’s MAGA going to do about it, fire them? Reagan did that with the air traffic controllers in the 80s, and we’ve NEVER recovered from it.
Sure they’ll try to fire them, but the government is barely operating now, it will only make their situation worse.
They Quiet Quit, employ Malicious Compliance, etc. Report EVERY problem, no matter how small. Once the government has a report, it must follow it through. Flood the government with requests to fix dripping sinks, loose hinges, etc. Tie MAGA up in layers of bureaucratic bullshit for even the easiest stuff.
Abolish ICE
