#1 Hypocrisy, yes. But if he didn't say that, Al Sharpton would organize a boycott of Coca-Cola.

#2 'Unacceptable'? Sounds like they're reading off the same list of Dem talking points. You're not making this too obvious, guys!

#3 I have an idea - when the next state passes comprehensive voter laws, it should be named The Democrat Election Theft Prevention Act.

#6 Fools on Parade.

Wow GA House. Didn't know you had it in you.

Of course tank had to get involved, and in this case is right for the wrong reasons. The black community is heavily represented at Hartsfield-Jackson.

But.

Why is it when there is talk about not able to get an ID because reasons, it is only the black community which comes to mind with these people - not the poor whites, hispanics, asians, polynesians, whatevers? Call it what it is, using black people as a human shield to enable fraud and theft, and then blame black people for the current and future fraud and theft.

#9  GA Legislature just passed a billed stripping Delta of a multi-million tax break.

That’s only a warning shot until the Georgia senate puts the bill on their calendar for discussion and a vote. Lower houses of American legislatures do an awful lot of meaningless posturing.

#10 Dear CEOs,

"Copyright and patent are oppressive tools of a white supremacist society." You and your business are just living off the last days of that arrangement if you keep this up.

Lenin was correct - capitalist will sell you the rope you'll hang them with.

#17 Employees who differ in political opinion should class action the CEO for potentially creating a hostile work environment before it begins.

#18 About the Georgia House thingie, it’s posturing. According to PJ Media,

On Thursday, the Georgia House fired a warning shot against woke capital. Legislators voted to start taxing jet fuel shortly after Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian repeated Democratic talking points condemning Georgia’s new voter integrity law in racial terms. The tax vote will not necessarily translate into policy, since the Georgia Senate has already gone out of session, but the move still sent a powerful message.

The state House included the jet-fuel tax in a bill passed on Wednesday, but the state Senate did not take up the measure before lawmakers adjourned for the year, rendering the tax dead for now. Even so, the House had sent the message.

Georgia lawmakers have previously zeroed in on the multimillion-dollar tax break on jet fuel as political retribution. In 2018, state lawmakers killed the tax cut after Delta ended a discount for members of the National Rifle Association. Then-Gov. Nathan Deal (R-Ga.) later suspended collecting the tax.
