#4 As someone pointed out in the comments at ZH, the union comes out way ahead. All those years paying dues and he wasn't retired, so no pension payout.

#5 He'll be forgotten in a few years like the rest of us. Him though, possibly much sooner.

#9 May Trumka have a statue dedicated in his honor...
It would only be fitting...
perpetually communing with winged creatures in nature...

#10 Off the pile, from today, oddly...

A shy little monochrome phoebe
Was she. Said he, "Kawai, habibi!"
Alighting, she sat,
Then adorably shat
On the head of Mohammed al-Chibi.
