Corporate CEOs Woke to State Voter Laws
Elite corporate CEOs held a zoom conference over the weekend. Their mission was to show they are woke to state laws that suppress minority voters. Or, in other words, to stay a step ahead of the mob. Ed Bastian, CEO of Atlanta based Delta is very concerned about the Georgia voter law which requires ID, just like the company he runs. In 2015 Delta paid $450 million for a 3.5 percent stake in its Chinese partner China Eastern Airline.
Georgia Voting Law Okay for Masters
Commissioner Rob Manfred pulled he Major League All-Star game from Atlanta because of a new Georgia voting law. But The Masters Tournament goes on today at Georgia’s Augusta National Golf Club. Where Commissioner Manfred is a member in good standing.
First Pitch in Georgia Voting Controversy
Joe Biden threw out the first pitch in the Georgia voting law controversy. And Stacey Abrams hit the dirt. She appreciated that he called the law an atrocious Jim Crow throwback but she’s not wild about the $100 million or so that left town with the all-star game.
Biden claims the law shuts down the polls at 5p.m. – just when working folks “like the ones he grew up with” get off. The Washington Post explains here why that’s a lie.
The New National Pastime is Politics
Georgia’s legislature passed a law President Biden didn’t like and major league baseball agreed. Now the new national pastime is politics.
Joe Biden called Georgia’s new voter legislation a sick “Jim Crow” law. Worse even than Jim Crow. “It’s Jim Eagle!” Baseball Commissioner Bob Manfred jumped on board and moved the All Star game out of Atlanta.
Asian Discrimination Anti-Racism Issue of the Week
Joe Biden accused Trump of Asian discrimination when he banned flights from China due to the corona virus. More recently, eight innocent people were murdered in Atlanta. Six of them were Asians. And now hate against Asians is the cause of the month. It’s real alright – check out this thug in mid-day Manhattan.
But Asians are also one of the most successful minorities in America. And if we’re looking for non-violent Asian discrimination Harvard is a good place to start.
But did the Atlanta victims die because they were Asian? So far there’s not proof of it. The shooter says he’s a sex pervert with issues. Sometimes a perv is just a perv.
