    [quote quote=1295]I hope that the documentaries start hitting the streaming world right around October showing all the city damage done by these peaceful protesters.[/quote]

    And who is going to produce these documentaries? Clint Eastwood would be great, but we’ll probably end up with Michael Moore producing and voice over by Adam Schiff.

    My ignorant, racist take – most of the objections are coming from white wokes and militant blacks.

    This could be a perfect teaching example, illustrating it is not the color of our skin that determines who we are.  Black skinned or white, she is the same person.

    Good for her.

    Can’t you borrow using the endowment as collateral? Money is cheap ……

    Do you really think Stanford is netting 4.5%?

    No reason for him to pick Harris.  He could select a 300#, multi colored hair, tatted up tranny and carry California.

    Called this just reading the headline.

    “The passage of the JumpStart tax could further accelerate Amazon’s move to secure office space outside of Seattle.

    Amazon maintains an expansive Seattle footprint, but in recent years, it has moved to establish a presence in areas outside of the city. Last month, Amazon said it would lease 111,000 square feet of office space in Redmond, Washington, which will house some 600-plus employees. The company also has an office in the Seattle suburb of Bellevue and it’s building a 43-story tower there, its largest yet.”

    Amazon and other large Seattle businesses fought a simialar tax a couple of years ago.  It’s interesting to watch the lengths to which Seattle will go to raise revenue.  This plan will backfire, as businesses simply choose to relocate entirely or move highly paid employees to another location outside of Seattle.

    Seattle has tried for years to implement some form of income tax, but WSSC continues to say no based on a state law enacted in 1984. The state Supreme Court has consistently ruled that income is property and graduated income tax supporters need to pursue a constitutional amendment. (Washington law prohibits taxing property at different rates, i.e. graduated income taxes).

    According to Amazon, it has invested over $4 billion in its urban campus in Seattle and paid more than $25 billion in compensation to its employees over the last seven years. Their estimate is these investments resulted in an additional $38 billion to the city’s economy from 2010 to 2016 and created more than 50,000 additional jobs on top of  direct hires.  I guess that just isn’t enough  for Seattle.

    I wonder when an elected official will seriously say “We should see what we can do with the money we collect.” I know, that’s crazy talk.

    Let’s call Chop what it is.  A complete failure of leadership by local and state officials.

    Legend, this is not an election. This a referendum about Trump.  Biden will win, not on his merits, but because he is not Donald Trump.

    Missed part of the link.

    Fraud can’t happen? 1.2 million stimulus checks went to dead people.  If dead people can file taxes and qualify for a stimulus check, I’m pretty sure they can vote as well.

    And it will continue until common sense prevails.  I sense pushback is starting to form, but the children have discovered how far they can push.  New boundaries are being established.  Protests will fade until the next incident and subsequent outrage.  More looting, vandalism and physical harm to law abiding citizens because elected officials are more concerned with appeasing law breakers than maintaining social order.
