Tl;dr: the right wing, anti-union group Freedom Foundation attempted to commit mail fraud to get teachers to drop their union membership.
can fuckers be charged with crime now?
the AFT said they’re reserving the right to file a lawsuit in their Cease and Desist. I hope they pursue it.
What they did is felony mail fraud, so yes. If postal police or the DOJ pursue it, they can absolutely be charged.
They real question is will they be charged?

You have a damn fine point.
To me the real question is, will everyone continue simply to pretend the system is legitimate, as though sustained by magic, despite consistent and robust failures?
I guess if you can’t convince people to support your cause, trying to deceive them into doing so is the next best thing.
I hope they sue this “Freedumb Foundation” to kingdom come.
“Trickery” is a very nice word for blatant fraud.
