You just can't make this stuff up.....

NY wins bidding war to get the new Amazon HQ for 25,000 high paying jobs and future revenue and the Dem representatives torpedo the move by attacking Amazon and supporting protests over the tax credits used to lure them there.   

 

San Diego, a sanctuary city, files suit against the federal government because they can't handle the immigrant families released from custody.

 

The Dems pass the New Green Deal resolution in the House, and are throwing a fit because McConnell is bringing it to the floor in the Senate for a vote.  Never been a huge fan of McConnell, but this brilliance makes me love him.  

 

I just start laughing anew every time I open the news on my desktop.  The sad thing is, government should not be this entertaining.

 Amazon has pulled out of NY.  The mayor is blasting Amazon for it, and the Governor is blasting the politicians for it.

I'm telling you, America as we've known it, is gone.

We are on track with killing ourselves.

I really, really, want a private island.

Amazon pulled out because NY local legislators criticized Amazon for not allowing a union to dictate their employment practices. I say good for Amazon.

Now whether these 35K jobs will come here to VA, is another dilemma......

 They are still planning on moving in to Crystal City.

They are not going to relocate this project. They are going to complete the other projects in the works and spread the jobs out among their different locations.

The union is nothing more than a barely legal cartel.

 Crystal City was already on their list to move into.

 Yes, but are there going to be an additional 35k jobs (the ones that were supposed to be in NY) now in Crystal City?   Hopefully they will be spread out among all their locations.

 They said they would be spread across all their different locations.
