Daniel Kammen, a renewable energy expert appointed last year as a science envoy to the State Department, resigned Wednesday, citing President Trump's response to the violence in Charlottesville as the final straw that led to his departure.

So, you clicked the link. Did you read it? Go back, and search for the word "communist". The AFL thought the IWW was "to radical". This is back in the day when the AFL was pretty radical itself.
