In this episode of Connecting the Dots, Dan Happel sits down with union representative and conservative firebrand Tim Ball to confront one of the biggest misconceptions in American politics: that unions belong to the Left.
Ball—who spent decades fighting for workers as a contract rep and steward—delivers a raw, no-nonsense challenge to conservative listeners: if we don't reclaim unions from Marxist elites, we will lose the working class entirely.
Together, Dan and Tim expose:
How Marxists hijacked the union movement
Why most union members are secretly conservative
The failures of both political parties to serve working Americans
How to build local, accountable unions rooted in faith, freedom, and family
The truth about globalism, outsourcing, and corporate betrayal
The spiritual and cultural war impacting American labor and values
This is a call to action for conservative America: stop demonizing unions and start organizing them—from the inside out.
American free market capitalism, the American Middle-Class and healthy respect for labor and capital can co-exist.
