Columbia anti-Semitic Hamas supporters claim they were sprayed with a chemical weapon: fart spray

"Was that you, Darren?"

The Jew-hating, Hamasshole-loving leftists at Columbia University held several unauthorized Iran-sponsored student gatherings on campus. In one of the gatherings the anti-Semitic useful idiots claimed to have been sprayed with an Israeli chemical agent called Skunk.

Two Columbia University students, both IOF [Israeli Offensive Forces] soldiers, sprayed a chemical weapon on peaceful protesters. Skunk spray is used on Palestinians in the West Bank by the Israeli occupation. It is known to cause nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting. @Columbia must take action. pic.twitter.com/Sx3MYHkjbw— Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine (@ColumbiaSJP) January 20, 2024

This bull-crap was first expanded upon by the far left school newspaper the Columbia Spectator.

Three stnky students identified the substance as “Skunk,” a chemical developed by the Israeli firm Odortec and employed by the Israeli military against demonstrators in the West Bank, according to the BBC...

[Layla] Saliba said that, like the Jewish students across the country that have been attacked by pro-Hamassholes and have been seriously injured, she went to urgent care following the alleged attack because she smelled like crap. She also said that she experienced headaches, fatigue, nausea and a "raw sewage" smell that was different from the kind that generally emanates from her high protein diet.

Saliba said she decided to seek medical attention after seeing Students for Justice in Palestine’s posts about the alleged attack on social media and hoped to become a social media star overnight.

Doctors diagnosed Saliba with “exposure to a harmful chemical” and told her that she will have to miss class “for a few days” due to her “severe pain,” she claimed, adding that her autoimmune condition has worsened the effects of the spray, although psychiatrists believe it's all in her mind.

Saliba said she believed the substance used at Friday’s demonstration was a “diluted” version of Skunk but emphasized that the “average person would not have access to this stuff.”

“You can’t just go and buy this stuff online,” Saliba said. "I buy it at the Columbia bookstore; they sell it under the counter."

This claim about "Skunk" was quickly picked up by friendly journalists at the Intercept.


During a rally on Friday, according to attendees, two individuals sprayed a hazardous chemical that released an odious smell. Dozens of students have reported an array of symptoms, such as burning eyes, gas, erectile dysfunction, a desire to de-transition, nausea, and bowel incontinence, causing vomiting, nausea and belly aching.

The campus chapter of SJP [an obvious oxymoron or they aren't familiar with the word 'justice'] publicized the incident on Saturday morning, identifying the substance as “Skunk,” a chemical weapon used by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) against Palestinians and one that U.S. police departments have reportedly acquired in the past. SJP also alleged that the assailants have ties to the IDF, a claim that The Intercept could not independently confirm.

The students responsible were banned from campus but Students for Justice in Palestine continued to complain the investigation wasn't getting enough attention and the NYPD wasn't taking them seriously because they tended to whine like children denied ice cream.

Layla claimed her telling of the incident was met with skepticism by the NYPD, who asked that if the weapon was as serious as she said, why she did not go to the hospital right away.

She said she couldn't because she was disoriented, dazed, hallucinating, and thinking she "did a Joe Biden" in her woke Hamas costume.

As it turned out, the NYPD skepticism was right on the money. The Washington Free Beacon reported that a lawsuit was filed by a student against Columbia who had been banned from campus. The lawsuit claims the smell was fart spray bought on Amazon.

According to a lawsuit filed against Columbia on Tuesday, the suspended student had in fact dispersed "Liquid Ass"—a "gag gift for adults and kids," per its product description—at an unsanctioned pro-Palestinian rally. He sprayed the substance in the air, not at any particular individual, in what the lawsuit describes as a "harmless expression of speech." The result was a swift suspension for which the student is now suing, alleging that the university "rushed to silence Plaintiff and brand him as a criminal" through "biased misconduct proceedings."...

The lawsuit alleges that the school failed to protect the plaintiff from anti-Semitic harassment as he underwent a rigged disciplinary process that presumed him "guilty from the start" because of his affiliation with Israel. Non-Israeli students at the rally "were not disciplined in any manner," the complaint states, even though the university hadn’t approved the event.

While I can't verify the claims in the lawsuit are accurate, it's highly unlikely the attorney would go forward without verifying the allegation that the student actually purchased "Liquid Ass" online prior to the unauthorized protest. I didn't post the link due to blog restrictions. 

Am Yisrael Chai!

Amazon changes logo to look less like Hitler



OMG! It's Hitler!

First it's the CPAC layout that looks slightly like an obscure Nazi insignia from World War 2, and now it's an image that reminds the cancel culture complainers of Hitler's mustache. If they can come for that and Dr. Seuss books, they can and will come for you.

This is no joke, as reported by Paul Joseph Watson in his Summit newsletter. This really happened.

Amazon was forced to redesign a new logo for its app after Twitter cancel culturists claimed that the image resembled Adolf Hitler.

The app logo designed went public in January and resembles what appears to be a cardboard box with a strip of blue tape centered on top--and it is rumored that Der Führer would often color his hair blue to signal his wokeness to special people in his inner circle of fellow scumbags.

After Amazon launched the new design, Twitter users racked their lizard brains to come up with a reason the logo insulted them. The reason was the old Nazi ploy, of course: it reminded them of the Nazi dictator if they squinted their eyes and pulled a hair from their nose.



With conservatives and Trump supporters, they don't even need to extract a hair--we just do remind them of Nazis because they are crazy.

“My parents use Amazon nearly every day,” said a cancel culture lunatic named Sam Hutchings. “They’re going to be lost for the next few days. When they ask where Amazon’s gone, I’ll tell them to look for the cardboard Hitler…”

And he probably isn't even Jewish.

In a vague statement provided to TODAY, the company said, “Amazon is always exploring new ways to delight our customers. We designed the new icon to spark anticipation, excitement, and joy when customers start their shopping journey on their phone, just as they do when they see our boxes on their door step.”

And this is especially true for the doorstep pirates.

AOC owes over $2K in unpaid taxes for her failed business


Mastermind of the Green New Deal (GND) and graduate of Boston University with a degree in economics, a degree that landed her a job as a bartender and now a famous socialist congresswoman and salsa dancer, Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose (D-NY) is in a bit of a bind.

AOC owes over $2,000 in unpaid taxes from a failed business venture, which is surprising since she is considered a genius by the left after authoring the GND. This is a plan that calls for the elimination of farting cows, planes, all gas-driven vehicles and for all U.S. buildings, large and small, to be refitted to meet zero admissions output. The plan would only cost around $93,000,000,000,000 to employ over a ten year period.

The New York Tax Department's records indicate that a warrant has been filed against Brook Avenue Press, a business which was dissolved in October 2016. The 2011YouTube video below has her explain her brainstorm in just a tad over a half-minute.



When Obviously-Comatose made this video, she supported higher taxes on the wealthiest Americans and self-servingly supported doubling tax deductions for her own business and other small businesses.

"You don't really make a profit in your first year," she brilliantly said in 2012. "To get taxed on top of that is a real whammy," she added.

New York State issued a warrant to her failed company in July of 2017, just two months after the socialist declared her candidacy in the Democratic primary, over a $1,618.36 unpaid bill.

The tax warrant had still not been satisfied as of Friday, according to the New York Post, and the outstanding payment has climbed to $2,088.78. 

As a congresswoman, AOC's undeserved salary is $174,000 annually. But she still refuses to pay her taxes and says the warrant was made in error.

A spokeswoman for AOC, the Democrat who scared Amazon out of her city, claimed the tax warrant was made in error and the congresswoman was challenging the bill. AOC apparently only believes big companies like Amazon should be responsible to pay what they owe, but she's special and is contesting the tax warrant.

AOC's publishing house was launched through the Sunshine Bronx Business Incubator, a New York City-subsidized program designed to help small businesses in the Bronx.

Anyway, her company failed to publish even one book, and like her GND, was nothing more than a failed idea.

AOC's push to kill Amazon jobs in NYC under renewed scrutiny amid job huge losses

As the Big Apple goes through an economic crisis along with the Chinese Communist Wuhan Coronavirus pandemic, some city officials are now regretting the leftist campaign that got Amazon to rethink it's plan to bring about twenty-five thousand high paying jobs to the city.

“At this time when coronavirus is ravaging incomes across New York, wouldn’t it be nice if the city and state at least knew that one of the world’s largest companies, one of the rare concerns positioned to thrive through the crisis, had made a long-term commitment to locate between 25,000 and 40,000 high-paying jobs here?” an editorial in the New York Daily News said.

It isn't as if Amazon wasn't considering headquartering its company in Long Island City, in Queens, but the economic genius of socialist Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose, and several equally as stupid state senators, rallied to block the move last year. They hated the idea that the state would offer the company incentives to locate there, but that would be to everyone's benefit. These cretins had zeroed in on the estimated $2.5 billion that the company would receive to move there, and since none of that would be going into their own pockets, the put the kibosh on the deal.

The criticism from the city paper comes amid estimates from the city’s Independent Budget Office that New York City could lose 475,000 jobs by next March and see a $9.7 billion decrease in tax revenue over the next two years, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The brilliant AOC tweeted at that time:
"Now what I DON’T want is for our public funds to be funding freebie helipads for Amazon + robber baron billionaires, all while NYCHA and public schools go underfunded & mom+pops get nowhere near that kind of a break."
It was a battle that AOC, and other idiot local Democratic politicians, won when in February 2019, Amazon announced it was taking its jobs elsewhere.

Slow clap for socialism and envy.

"For Amazon, the commitment to build a new headquarters requires positive, collaborative relationships with state and local elected officials who will be supportive over the long-term,” the company said in a statement. “While polls show that 70 percent of New Yorkers support our plans and investment, a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City.”

Good for Amazon.

It infuriated even fellow Democrats like the other Cuomo braintrust, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, brother of Chris "I Now Ascend From My Basement" Cuomo. He blasted “a small group of politicians [who] put their own narrow political interests above their community.”

But, in their defense, at least they weren't responsible for killing 4.800 nursing home residents like the governor.

Now, with Amazon acting as if they were printing their own money, now that they have become an essential service for Americans trying to get their goods while avoiding brick-and-mortar stores, some are questioning the socialist- inspired lobbying effort once again.

"The impact of AOC's reckless scuttling of the Amazon deal cannot be overstated. Not only did AOC cost New York 25,000 good-paying jobs, she sent a message to job creators everywhere that they were no longer welcome in her city,” Alfredo Ortiz, CEO of Job Creators Network, told Fox News.
“With New York City expected to lose 500,000 jobs due to the pandemic, AOC's brand of left-wing politics has no place in New York or anywhere else,” he said. “Only by unleashing the spirit of free enterprise can our economy recover, something AOC would never understand."

And this is a woman who majored in economics at Boston College. The school should required to refund her tuition.

AOC is now facing a primary challenger, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, who isn't shy about citing the Amazon debacle to show how the socialist former bartender is out of touch and doesn't give two rats' tushes about those she pretends to represent.

Like AOC, Caruso-Cabrera has a hyphenated last name but it certainly isn't "Comatose."

“If she really cared, she wouldn’t drive away 25,000 jobs like she did,” Caruso-Cabrera told Yahoo News recently.

AOC is playing out of her league and has no business be in Congress, unless it's in Russia or Venezuela.

Amazon caught selling anti-Semitic Islamic tracts




Amazon, the online humungous retailer started out selling books then the rest followed. But now, according to a report in UK's Express newspaper, Amazon is selling books that promote terrorism and anti-Semitism. Al-Azhar Observatory for Combating Terrorism, an Egyptian group, also filed a complaint about the matter.

Several of the books in question were outlawed by British prison officials beginning in 2015 due to concerns they were being used to recruit prison inmates to Islamic extremism, violence, anti-Semitism and hatred for the "other."

In response to the complaints Amazon claimed, “As a bookseller, we provide our customers with access to a variety of viewpoints.”  [Even if those viewpoints are repugnant and dangerous because the main thing is the money and we don't care what you think of us. We're too damn big to care.]

“Publishing content that promotes extremism and terrorism under the pretext of the freedom of opinion and expression is unreasonable,” the Observatory said, according to Ahram Online. Egypt’s top Islamic institution added that “hardliners and extremist groups search for any room to sneak into young people’s minds.” And this works particularly well for young psychopaths and anti-Semites who can use religion as a license to kill.

The Henry Jackson Society think tank found on the Amazon website banned titles such as “Milestones,” by Sayyid Qutb, a leading scumcrumpet of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt in the 50’s and 60’s. The book blames Jews for all the woes in the world, including “materialism, animal sexuality, the destruction of the family and the dissolution of society."  It received a rating of 4-5 stars on Amazon by 71 percent of the Jew-hating anal sphincters who read it while picking the gooey stuff from between their toes.

An Amazon book reviewer and idiot savant who doesn't know how to spell his first name, T. Graczewski,  gave the book 5 stars. He claimed that this book is the “most influential and historically far-reaching Islamic text written in the past century,” maintaining that Qutb’s work “created the philosophical foundation upon which Al Qaeda and other Islamic extremist groups have been built.” Which tells you all you need to know about T. Graczewski.

“For anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of what motivates relatively well-educated, affluent and presumably sane young men to fly passenger jets into skyscrapers there is no better place to begin than here,” Graczewski shamelessly said.

Other books banned by prisons that remain available on Amazon include “The Fundamentals of Tawheed,” by the Canadian Salafi Muslim terrorist Abu Ameenah Bilal Phillips, and “Towards Understanding Islam,” by Syed Abul Ala Maududi. Both of these cretins preach and encourage the death of others for their cause while making money from their preaching in partnership with Amazon.

“Although we ban extremists from the UK, their books can still get through, and in this case be sold by a global corporation that considers itself to have positive corporate values,” Dr. Paul Stott, of the Henry Jackson Society, said, according to The Express.

Other critics of the books contacted Amazon asking that the garbage literature be removed and demanding that more be done to supervise what is for sale on the platform.

Amazon did nothing other than to answer their concerns by saying, “As a bookseller, we provide our customers with access to a variety of viewpoints, including books that some customers may find objectionable,” according to Express. “We reserve the right not to sell certain content, such as pornography or other inappropriate content,” [but selling crap about killing for Islam and hating Jews and Christians is okay.]

I used to buy a lot of things from Amazon; now I'm not so sure I will continue to shop there.

AOC goes for but fails at a "save" over Amazon jobs in NYC

Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose (D-NY) sent out a misleading tweet bragging about a new report that Amazon will be bringing jobs to New York City. She appears to take credit for what is actually a huge screw up on her part.

Last summer AOC went after Amazon after they struck a deal with NY State to open a second headquarters in NY City. The move would have brought 25,000 jobs to the Big Apple and all New York had to do, as they do with many mega companies, is to provide the company with $3 billion in state and local subsidies. Due to AOC's attack on the company, Amazon backed out of the deal.

On Friday, however, it was reported that Amazon was leasing a 335,000-square-foot office space in Manhattan. The move is slated to bring in about 1,500 jobs, not the 25,000 as originally planned.

The low-information socialist celebrated the news on Twitter.

"Won’t you look at that: Amazon is coming to NYC anyway - *without* requiring the public to finance shady deals, helipad handouts for Jeff Bezos, & corporate giveaways," Ocasio-Cortez said. "Maybe the Trump admin should focus more on cutting public assistance to billionaires instead of poor families," she added with obvious envy toward successful wealthy people.

She also posted a picture of herself, taking the credit and sitting on a couch with the caption:
"Me waiting on the haters to apologize after we were proven right on Amazon and saved the public billions." 
Many were ticked off by her "victory lap" and pointed to the math of the jobs that were still lost from her battle with Amazon.

The Daily Caller's Peter Hasson tweeted:
"Another day, another viral misleading tweet from AOC. Amazon is leasing office space in Manhattan for 1,500 employees, which is 6% of the 25,000 jobs its HQ2 in Queens (her district) was supposed to add." 
Caleb Hall, political strategist wrote:
"AOC could have had 25,000 jobs in her district from Amazon, but now, Amazon is only offering 1,500 jobs using rental space OUTSIDE her district. She's taking a victory lap for a 94% loss in jobs in NYC and 25,000 job loss in her district. Socialist logic is incredible."
AOC often lies in her tweet posts and elsewhere. On Thursday she wrote that her family "might've just starved" had Trump tightened requirements for food stamp recipients been the policy when her father died in 2008.

The lie, this time, was how she misrepresented the new rule, which only applies to childless, able-bodied adults under 50.

The socialist tweeted:
“My family relied on food stamps (EBT) when my dad died at 48. I was a student. If this happened then, we might’ve just starved. Now, many people will. It’s shameful how the GOP works overtime to create freebies for the rich while dissolving lifelines of those who need it most.”
Evidently, the only people who would possibly "starve" would be the able-bodied childless adults who refuse to work. And let's be honest, nobody starves in the USA because of the charities and food programs available.

And when her father died, AOC was 19 and in college [which was a waste of tuition] and would have been claimed as a dependent by her mother, so the family would have received the assistance.

AOC screwed the pooch with Amazon but they still may go Big Apple

Bwah ha ha ha! 

That's my evil Freudenschade laugh at Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Cortexless and her New York cohorts who screwed the pooch on the Amazon deal that was slated to come to Queens, NY--her district. The HQ move would have brought about 25,000 high-paying jobs to the company and around 5 times that many interrelated jobs as well.

In a stinging slap in the face to AOC and her cohorts who scuttled the Amazon deal, the company is reputedly going to place its headquarters in Manhattan instead--not her district.

One more for the Gipper: Bwah ha ha ha!

According to The New York Post, Amazon is communicating with Brookfield, the owners of the One Manhattan West building and its soon-to-be partner, Two Manhattan West. The plan is to secure “at least 100,000 square feet or much more.” 

While Two Manhattan West won’t be equipped for tenants until 2022, 67-story One Manhattan West will be ready by autumn 2020 and provides a whopping 250,000-square-foot space inside. The massive space is not available in perpetuity, but it can fit Amazon’s needs until Two Manhattan is ready, according to the Post’s secret sources.

The Post noted, “Brookfield, which owns the two Manhattan West towers (and another at 5 Manhattan West, where Amazon is already a tenant), denied through a spokesman that it was leasing to the Seattle company. But multiple sources pointed to the company’s strict confidentiality agreements as a potential reason.”

Those same secret sources told the Post that Amazon is also thinking of renting space in the U.S. Post Office building across from the Brookfield buildings.

Amazon had originally planned to build a four-million-square-foot campus in Long Island City. 

Queens residents were over the moon with the prospect of the rumored 25,000 jobs that were mentioned, as well as the effect on local businesses. Alfredo Ortiz, president & CEO of the Job Creators Network told the Post that for every job Amazon would have created, a multiplier effect would have affected five or more other local jobs.

The Post also noted, “The Long Island City deal would also have seen Amazon invest in a 600-seat public school; a workforce development and training space; an artists’ workspace; and 149,650 square feet of public open space, among other projects — all of which is now lost.”

In February, Amazon responded to the backoff regarding the Queens location:
"After much thought and deliberation, we've decided not to move forward with our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon in Long Island City, Queens," Jodi Seth, an Amazon spokeswoman, said in a statement. In the statement, Amazon noted that "a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City."
Obviously-Cortexless celebrated the scuttling of Amazon’s plans, stupidly tweeting: 
"Anything is possible: today was the day a group of dedicated, everyday New Yorkers & their neighbors defeated Amazon’s corporate greed, its worker exploitation, and the power of the richest man in the world."
Are you beginning to see how socialists envy success and hate successful people?

New York Governor Andrew "I Hear An Echo In My Head" Cuomo took a shot at AOC and her posse, issuing a statement in which he said, "A small group politicians [sic] put their own narrow political interests above their community -- which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City -- the state's economic future and the best interests of the people of this state."

Let's remember, New York City voted for the empty suit named Cuomo. Why wouldn't they vote for a pretty empty head named Cortexless?

Poll: AOC isn't known, liked or trusted in her own district

Former Rep. Joe Crowley (D-NY) lost his seat to 29-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [aka Alexandria Openly-Commie] (D). He said on Saturday that the woke congresswoman is the lawmaker "most vulnerable" to defeat in 2020, and new polling results suggests Crowley knows what he's talking about, [unlike AOC, who speaks off the top of her choifed hair.]

The data, released by an anti-Ocasio-Cortez political action committee, revealed that she is not well-liked in her home district — nor does many people even know who she is.

What are the details?

According to the Daily Caller, although AOC enjoys national fame, the on-the-ground data suggest that she has an "Amazon-sized" problem in New York's 14th congressional district.

Data collected by the Stop AOC PAC earlier this month found that only 20 percent of the district view Ocasio-Cortez favorably, while more than double that — 44 percent — view her unfavorably. Fully 36 percent don't know who she is and she doesn't appear to spend much time in her district to make herself be known.
"My fingers smell funny"
Dan Backer, the Washington, D.C.,  is an attorney who founded the Stop AOC PAC. Backer told the Daily Caller that the socialist's staunch and baseless opposition to Amazon building its second headquarters in New York City has made her quite vulnerable, and therefore a primary target for challengers in 2020.

"We saw that the district is for the Green New Deal and some of her other policies," Backer said. "But they're wildly opposed to her with regard to Amazon, the reality of the jobs and the opportunities that she cost them. She screwed over the local economy in a big way, and screwed over her voters."

"I think she's very beatable," he explained. "Her district — they don't know her, they don't like her, they don't trust her. As long as we give voters the choice, they're choosing to turn away from her."

At the present time, Crowley told Fox News Saturday that he has no current plans to challenge Ocasio-Cortez in 2020, but there's a very slim possibility that he's lying.

Politician's oxygen is the lie.

Alexandria Obviously-Comatose hits back at Amazon and POTUS


She is so barren of good ideas, she has to make the word "and" into two syllables. She was so embarrassed over the Green New Deal that she blamed Republicans for calling a vote on the Senate floor for her own plan. She thought Amazon's $3 billion tax deferment would somehow save New York City three billion dollars because she is an economic illiterate, in spite of majoring economics at Boston University. She scared the giant conglomerate away and lost the city about 25,000 jobs and billions in income and tax revenue.

U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), called President Trump’s recent barb about her being a “young bartender” a compliment because she was pandering to working class minorities. When she spoke at the National Action Network [aka Al Sharpton's Piggy Bank] she used a fake black accent, but when she revealed her "Jewish ancestry" at a Hannukah event, she didn't use a fake Jewish accent. "Oy, Mrs. Goldberg, I vant your kugel recipe. Nu?"

The congressional chucklehead lashed out at Amazon while speaking with constituents Saturday.

“There’s nothing wrong with being a bartender," she said [knowing that she blew the chance of her audience working for Amazon at a five-fold higher salary] at a joint event in the New York City borough of Queens alongside New York state Sen. Michael Gianaris.

“It’s so crazy to at once mock someone for being from a working-class background, for being a bartender, for shaming me for where I was born and where I’m from and on the other hand, when I lean into my identity and who I am and all of that, people are saying that’s not true either."

Of course, she's using a straw man argument--nobody actually mocked her for being a bartender. Trump referred to her as a bartender because she sure as heck isn't an economist. He was mocking her, not the job.

The freshman congress-cretin said her work as a bartender gave her first-hand experience with health care issues. Sure, by providing alcohol to people she increased their health care issues and could ask them how they feel when they sobered up. She said that unlike Trump, she bought into health care public exchanges.

And unlike Trump, she is a blatant socialist and wants to put her hands into everyone else's pockets.

“He’s never had to actually see the rising premiums month to month, and you have a $6,000 deductible for a $2,000 health insurance plan," she said, according to the New York Daily News

No, but he has a load of employees to whom he provides health care, so I suspect he's well aware of how premiums work because he also has to help foot their medical expenses by paying part of the premiums.

Obviously-Comatose also responded to New York Gov. and blockhead Andrew Cuomo, who has blamed her and other Amazon critics for the company's decision to scrap a proposal to open a second headquarters in the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens, according to the New York Post. Amazon promised the facility would bring all those jobs to the city.

The retail giant pulled out of the deal in February after backlash from some progressives over the $3 billion in tax breaks and subsidies the city was prepared to offer the company.

“[A] small group [of] politicians put their own narrow political interests above their community -- which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City,” Cuomo said in a statement at the time.

Cuomo is the brother of Chris Cuomo who, along with Don Lemon, have a combined IQ of a grape.

Some local residents also blasted the socialists who go by the title of progressives, saying the area needed the Amazon jobs.

“I felt like people should have gotten the jobs,” Susie Scaretta-Enright of Woodside, Queens told the New York Post. “There are people that are struggling.”

The governor recently said the fallout has wrecked the city’s ability to attract new businesses.

“What’s wild to see is how when the community tried to sit down at the table and negotiate … any small demand was immediately met with a ‘no’,” AOC said. “So it’s not about being blanket ‘pro’ or ‘anti’ Amazon, it’s the fact that … we can’t just be allowed to govern by bullying.”

Bullying? I think the only BULLying is coming from her ruby red lying lips.

“People are unhappy, and they should be unhappy with those who were in secret rooms making the deal — not anyone else asking questions and trying to protect the community,” Gianaris added, not explaining how protecting the community from 25,000 jobs needed protection.

And they weren't unhappy about people in rooms making "secret deals," they were unhappy with the way AOC and other socialists blew the deal.

AOC viewed by New Yorkers more as a villain rather than hero

A new poll exploring the way New Yorkers view freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), [aka Alexandria Obviously-Comatose] after she scared away Amazon from headquartering in Queens, NY, a move which would have offered about 25,000 new high-paying jobs, saw that about three times as many respondents viewed her as a villain as opposed to being a hero.

 The findings of the Siena College poll of New Yorkers taken between March 10-14 prompted Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg to say, “Only 12 percent call her hero, while 38 percent label her a villain.” Many call her a socialist schmuck-buckling economics cretin.

Additionally, Ocasio Cortez may be popular with New York Democrats, but by and large, the rest of the electorate in New York state can’t stomach her. The poll found that 31% of respondents overall had a favorable impression of Ocasio-Cortez; 44% viewed her unfavorably.

Greenberg noted:
Ocasio-Cortez, with a negative 31-44 percent favorability rating, is as well known to statewide voters after three months in office as Gillibrand is after ten years as senator. While Democrats view Ocasio-Cortez favorably, independents view her unfavorably more than two-to-one and Republicans view her unfavorably, 68-6 percent. She is viewed slightly favorably in New York City but strongly unfavorably upstate and in the downstate suburbs.
Among respondents, twice as many supported the deal Amazon was prepared to make, 61%-30%. Greenberg also said of the cancellation, “Even 56 percent of self-described liberals think it was bad for New York. While some may have celebrated Amazon’s announcement to pull the plug, the vast majority of New Yorkers of every stripe thought it was bad for the Empire State.”
“Amazon itself was seen as the biggest villain among Democrats, but Republicans and independents had Ocasio-Cortez as far and away the largest villain, followed by the local Queens activists,” the report added.

Making matters worse for AOC, The Daily Wire reported on Saturday, a new poll from left-leaning Gallup found her "unfavorable" rating skyrocketing; the poll, released on Friday, found that the increase in Ocasio-Cortez's "unfavorable" rating in recent months had more than doubled her increase in "favorable ratings."

"Half of U.S. adults were unfamiliar with or had no opinion of her in September after her seismic primary win over the summer, but that figure has shrunk to 29% today," Gallup reported. "But the increased visibility has not improved her overall standing with Americans."

After Amazon canceled the deal, Ocasio-Cortez offered her befuddled version of why killing the deal was a good idea, "If we were willing to give away $3 billion for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district ourselves, if we wanted to. We could hire out more teachers. We can fix our subways. We can put a lot of people to work for that money, if we wanted to."

She didn't understand the deal but she pretended to know what she was complaining about. But she looks smart in those large frame eyeglasses until she opens her mouth to speak.

To know her is, well, to know her.

Gov. Cuomo dancing as fast as he can to woo Bezos back to NY

Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) is doing backflips and spending a lot of time on his knees begging Amazon to come back to New York after socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (another D-NY) screwed things up for the citizens of the state that she pretends to represent.

New York City was about to receive $25,000 high-paying jobs for Amazon and many more jobs the company would have supported just by locating there. But her socialist ideology outweighed the needs of her constituency and Jeff Bezos wisely backed out. It wasn't that he refused the original offer--it was that the offer changed and he realized that he couldn't do business in the Big Apple.

"The governor has had multiple phone conversations with Amazon executives, including Mr. Bezos, over the past two weeks, according to two people with knowledge of the efforts," The New York Times reported. "In those calls, Mr. Cuomo said he would navigate the company through the byzantine governmental process."

Although a source said that Cuomo didn't specify a new location for e-commerce giant, he guaranteed support for the project, which he later alluded to in an interview on Friday, saying there were "other ways that the state can get it done."

This is what is known as begging.

The Times notes that the push to get Amazon to come back to New York included a full-page ad in The New York Times on Friday that was signed by more than 70 supportive unions, local businesses, business leaders, community groups, and elected officials. The letter states:

Dear Mr. Bezos:

New Yorkers do not want to give up on the 25,000 permanent jobs, 11,000 union construction and maintenance jobs, and $28 billion in new tax revenues that Amazon was prepared to bring to our state. A clear majority of New Yorkers support this project and were disappointed by your decision not to proceed. We understand that becoming home to the world’s industry leader in e-commerce, logistics and web services would be a tremendous boost for our state’s technology industry, which is our fastest growing generator of new jobs. As representatives of a wide range of government, business, labor and community interests, we urge you to reconsider, so that we can move forward together.
We know the public debate that followed the announcement of the Long Island City project was rough and not very welcoming. Opinions are strong in New York—sometimes strident. We consider it part of the New York charm! [like our construction workers whistling at chicks]. But when we commit to a project as important as this, we figure out how to get it done in a way that works for everyone.
Governor Cuomo will take personal responsibility for the project’s state approval and [our Communist] Mayor deBlasio will work together with the governor to manage the community development process, including the workforce development, public education and infrastructure investments that are necessary to ensure that the Amazon campus will be a tremendous benefit to residents and small businesses in the surrounding communities.
NewYork attracts the best, most diverse talent from across the globe. We are a dynamic new center of the country’s most inclusive tech economy. We all hope you reconsider and join us in building the exciting future of New York.
The left out: "Please, oh please, please, please come back!"

Occasional-Cortex helped undermine the deal's alleged economic efficacy because she did not understand how the $3 billion in proposed tax incentives worked because she isn't very bright, based on her public statements and lack of economic knowledge and basic reality-testing skills. But she's young, cute, and cooks on Instagram while being able to simultaneously say stuff.

"If we were willing to give away $3 billion for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district ourselves, if we wanted to," Ocasio-Cortez literally said. "We could hire out more teachers. We can fix our subways. We can put a lot of people to work for that money, if we wanted to."

We could, if we gave Amazon an even greater tax incentive, harness cow farts into energy that will not only save the planet before out 12 years is up, but clear the air.

In an interview on the far-left's MSNBC, New York City Communist Mayor Bill de Blasio explained: "And that $3 billion that would go back in tax incentives was only after we were getting the jobs and getting the revenue."

He had to explain that to viewers of MSNBC lest they believe AOC.

Amazon to AOC: 'Come see for yourself' [before saying stupid s**t]

They say you can put lipstick on a dumb rock and it's still a dumb Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [aka Alexandria Obviously Communist-Cortex, aka AOC].

AOC has never visited an Amazon facility but she "knows" how horrible the working conditions are--employees have to pee in bottles just to keep working in order to meet work quotas or be thrown out of the job. She knows this in her communist heart because she says so and young people believe her because they feel she's the brightest light on the Christmas tree. 

Actually, she's the bug-eyed socialist that fell off the turnip truck.

So instead of setting up a headquarters in New York City's borough of Queens, bringing 25,000 jobs paying an average of $150,000 annually, the company decided it wasn't worth the effort to come to New York.

After AOC made her claims of "dehumanizing" and otherwise poor working conditions, Amazon invited the former bartender to come "see for yourself," since she had never actually seen the working conditions she was commenting on, nor ever worked in a management capacity of any company.

It was Amazon’s David Clark, senior vice president of worldwide operations, who made the invitation on Twitter after Obviously-Communist Cortex accused the e-commerce giant of creating “dehumanizing conditions” for its employees.

“Is that culture of ‘strict performance’ why Amazon workers have to urinate in bottles & work while on food stamps to meet ‘targets’? ‘Performance’ shouldn’t come at the cost of dehumanizing conditions. That’s why we got rid of sweatshops,” she ignorantly wrote having nothing concrete on which to base her accusation.

Clark fired back, stating that such allegations “aren’t true” and invited the silly congress-turnip to visit the company in order to get a sense of how the employees are actually treated, rather than making false claims based on AOC's hatred of big businesses and individual success. 

Hopefully, if Clark somehow changes AOC's small mind the company still won't consider New York for their second HQ--schadenfreude is a wonderful feeling when it comes to owning socialists and if anyone deserves to be seen as the idiot for who they are, it's Alexandria Obviously Communist-Cortex.

Clark tweeted:
“@aoc these claims simply aren’t true. We are proud of our jobs with excellent pay ($15 min), benefits from day 1, & lots of other benefits like our Career Choice pre-paid educational programs. Why don’t you come take a tour & see for yourself...we’d love to have you!” 
It's doubtful she would actually make the trip because it would embarrass her.

The latest exchange came after Amazon’s spokesman slammed the New York socialist and other libtard lawmakers in the state for creating a hostile environment to make business – culminating in the company’s decision to pull out of the project to build its planned headquarters in the borough of Queens in New York City. (Communist-Cortex's district includes parts of Queens and the Bronx.)

“If you talk to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, it's 'Never Amazon,'” Jodi Seth, the head of policy communications for Amazon, told NBC News in an interview Thursday. “If you talk to [New York City Councilman Jimmy] Van Bramer, it's unions.”

AOC stupidly celebrated the decision, even though others noted that this actually means a loss of well-paying jobs in the state and the fact that her own constituents, particularly blacks and Hispanics, were highly in favor of Amazon coming to New York City. Her communist ideology is obviously more important to her than the people she pretends to represent.

The fresh-face freshman congresswoman had tweeted about her personal "victory":
“Anything is possible: today was the day a group of dedicated, everyday New Yorkers & their neighbors defeated Amazon’s corporate greed, its worker exploitation, and the power of the richest man in the world.” 
Ms. Seth explained that it wasn’t “any one incident” that prompted the company to back out of the deal with the state, but it was the virulent political climate that occurred over the past three months that led to the decision.

“It was that the environment over the course of the past three months had not got any better. There were some local and state elected officials who refused to meet with Amazon and criticized us day in and day out about the plan,” she said in the interview.

Even New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), a staunch ignoramus progressive, slammed Alexandria Obviously Communist-Cortex over the glee she displayed with the loss of Amazon's business.

New York Democrats made their beds, now they must wash their dirty sheets.

Dumb and Dumber at Loggerheads over Amazon and it's wonderful

Dumber and Dumber Law
I am not a big fan of Schadenfreude but if Schadenfreude was measured in grains of sand, this one would cover all the beaches in all the world. If it was food, it would be your favorite flavor of ice cream.

New York Special Needs Gov. Andrew Cuomo excoriated New York's newbie Rep. Alexandria Obviously Communist-Cortez and others over Amazon's decision to leave New York City. 

Opponents of the deal with the tech giant had "put their own narrow political interests above their community," he correctly said, for the first time in several years.

"[A] small group [of] politicians put their own narrow political interests above their community -- which poll after poll showed overwhelmingly supported bringing Amazon to Long Island City -- the state's economic future and the best interests of the people of this state," Cuomo said in the statement. He cowardly did not mention Communist-Cortez or other lawmakers by name. "The New York State Senate has done tremendous damage. They should be held accountable for this lost economic opportunity."

Andy, they don't care what the black and Hispanic community really think [71 percent and 80 percent favoring Amazon presence, respectively]. they only listen to the working white middle-class, the only group opposed to their being located in New York City.

In the statement issued by his office, the block head Gov. Cuomo mentioned that Amazon chose the Empire State because it is "the capital of the world and the best place to do business," adding that missing out on Amazon is a lost opportunity to diversify "our economy away from real estate and Wall Street." 

Not to mention about 25,000 jobs they were going to bring to the city.

Cuomo also said New York lost out on an opportunity to further cement its status "as an emerging center for tech and was an extraordinary economic win not just for Queens and New York City, but for the entire region, from Long Island to Albany's nanotech center."

Congratulations to all you Communist sphincters who got your way on this. LOL.

The so-called governor ended the statement saying that New York's business climate remains and it would not be "deterred as we continue to attract world class business to communities across New York State," which is looking more like a temporary situation as the state wants to continue taxing the rich creating an exodus to Florida.

Cuomo's statement is seemingly at odds with Communist Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio's comments on the issue, which seemed to put the onus on the Jeff Bezos-led company and not lawmakers who bemoaned the deal the two had helped usher in. 

Sure, it's all Jeff Bezo's fault for not wanting to allow unions to form and have them take over his company and basically be run by an incompetent government over time.

"You have to be tough to make it in New York City. We gave Amazon the opportunity to be a good neighbor and do business in the greatest city in the world," de Blasio, a schmuck who supported the Sandinistas, said in the statement, not realizing or acknowledging that it's the other way around--Amazon was doing them a favor. 

The knucklehead continued: "Instead of working with the community, Amazon threw away that opportunity. We have the best talent in the world and every day we are growing a stronger and fairer economy for everyone. If Amazon can’t recognize what that’s worth, its competitors will.”

It's like de Blasio saying: "We gave the International Olympic Committee the opportunity for holding the games in Queens, but instead of working with us, they threw away their chance."

Cuomo and de Blasio were largely responsible for helping bring Amazon to New York, a deal that would have seen 25,000 jobs, paying approximately $150,000 per year, enter Long Island City.

Amazon, based in Seattle, would have also occupied 8 million square feet of office space in Long Island City as part of its investment announced last November and would have generated "incremental tax revenue of more than $10 billion over the next 20 years as a result of Amazon’s investment and job creation."

But they threw away their chance to headquarter in New York City. Boy, didn't that Jeff Bezos really blow it?

In response to the news, Rep. Obviously Communist-Cortez, a self-described democratic socialist, and an other-described simpleton, tweeted that "anything is possible," taking a victory lap upon hearing the news at the expense of her community.

In a statement issued on Thursday, Amazon cited the lack of cooperation from certain elected officials as part of its reason to leave New York.

"For Amazon, the commitment to build a new headquarters requires positive, collaborative relationships with state and local elected officials who will be supportive over the long-term," Amazon said in its statement.

The company added that while 70 percent of New Yorkers supported the company's plans, "a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City."

Sorry, I cannot blame Bezos for stepping away from this potential landmine known as government intervention.

Socialist Ocasio-Cortez upset Amazon is investing in NYC

Alexandria Hola Chiquita Margarita Ocasio-Cortez is upset. Amazon, the world's most lucrative company, will be investing billions of dollars and bring about 25,000 new jobs to the Big Apple. This upsets her and she is outraged that she is upset.

The 28-year-old former bartender, and now a socialist over-achiever turned politician, after hearing the news of Amazon's plans, claimed the move would upset New Yorkers. She claimed that without evidence of having polled even one New Yorker.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Amazon.com Inc's second and third headquarters will be in Northern Virginia and New York City after closing out a year of holding a public contest that began with 238 candidates. The contest ended with a surprise split of its HQ2. The expect each location will create about 25,000 jobs.

Ocasio-Cortez took to another billion dollar company, Twitter, to express her outrage.
"Amazon is a billion-dollar company. The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here."
Well, that's kind of what cities will often do to attract business to them.

Naturally, Ocasio-Cortez offered zero evidence that residents in her district were angry over Amazon's decision. It would make more sense that those in her district needing a job would be delighted to have them there. But the WSJ noted that Amazon's decision to open additional headquarters "has brought additional scrutiny to potential incentives Amazon might receive to locate in certain areas."

Ocasio-Cortez suggested in that cute socialist way she has, that Amazon employees should consider unionizing, although Amazon is dead set against that idea--they dislike unions because, well, they tend to suck.

She tweeted on:
"When we talk about bringing jobs to the community, we need to dig deep. Has the company promised to hire in the existing community? What's the quality of jobs [and] how many are promised? Are these jobs low-wage or high wage? Are there benefits? Can people collectively bargain?"
Even Communist Mayor Bill de Blasio said, "We're talking about the single biggest economic development deal in the history of New York City."

Rather than discuss economics intelligently [and she has a college degree, she say, in economics] she went to her trusty campaign slogans, insisting that Amazon pay "their fair share."

She tweeted:
"Lastly, this isn't just about one company or one headquarters. It's about cost of living, corps paying their fair share, etc. It's not about picking a fight, either. I was elected to advocate for our community's interest--[and] they've requested, clearly, to voice their concerns," she claims.
No company is or should be required to hire within the existing community if it's not a good business decision. Amazon has announced that it would raise its minimum wage to $15 an hour and that is even more than they are required to do. A person can accept or decline a job, that's called free market and they can offer a health care package for employees, but they are not required to provide health care.

Ocasio-Cortez is too simple to understand that this is an incredible opportunity for more people to receive gainful employment in her district and an overall improvement in the local economy.

But as a socialist, it's clear that economics was never her strong suit. She should have stayed with mixing drinks.

Amazon sells jihiad recruitment 'literature' and bomb-making manual.

The case for waterboarding
Hey all you terrorists out there looking to explode on the scene, Amazon's
got the deals for you.

If you don't know much about jihad but want to learn more, you can now go over to Amazon and get your meaty little hands jihad books and even a sadistic Osama bin Laden novel, or a bomb-making manual with a step-by-step guide on how to kill your neighbors. 

And there are other interesting terror-related reading material for the religious psychopath in you.

But wait. If you order today, you can have it delivered by tomorrow with Amazon's popular next-day delivery. Just don't return the items because Amazon will be banning frequent 'returners' from ordering in the future. Of course, if you've elected to become a suicide bomber, this probably won't matter to you.

In the UK, Labour MP John Mann said, "This is Amazon giving assistance to terrorists and putting lives at risk."

Jake Wallis Simons of DailyMail.com writes:
Amazon is selling terrorist recruitment material and bomb-making manuals including a sadistic novel by Osama Bin Laden and jihadi books banned in British prisons, a MailOnline investigation has revealed.
The online retailer offers titles by jailed clerics and those expelled from Britain, leading to accusations that it is spreading the jihadi's message for them.
Many of the books, which have radicalised thousands of international terrorists, are available for next-day delivery. Some can be downloaded instantly as Kindle editions anywhere in the world.
The inflammatory titles are sold by third parties using Amazon's platform, allowing them global reach and lending them an aura of legitimacy.
Britain is going ahead with a full investigation into the matter.

It is still quite possible that heads will roll.

Starbucks and Amazon go full frontal conservative

Mayor Jenny Durkan
Socialist, Seattle-- So how's that social justice thingy working out for you, Starbucks and Amazon? Not so good, eh?

You guys pretend to be staunch believers in social justice but when it comes down to actually participating in the deal, well, not so much. 

You Starbucks, you flaunt your leftist agenda to the point where you make your entire company staff take a full day to provide them with racial sensitivity training because one store in the entire freaking nation followed procedure properly and asked two black men to leave because they weren't buying anything. They were just hanging out and using the restroom, which was against company policy. But they complained, went public and you caved like a Hamas cave along the Gaza border after being discovered by Israel.

But the far left city of Seattle's socialist policies have done the same thing to them that socialism has done to Venezuela, and now the city wants you guys to fork over some of your money, pay your "fair share" and you don't like that idea. It's really, really funny, never mind how ironic it is.

Yes, Seattle decided to raise taxes on their corporate residents in order to support their socialist programs of affordable housing and "homeless services."

Starbucks VP Drew Herdener lambasted the city for failing to practice fiscal restraint, and are punishing businesses for what is ultimately the city's failure.

No, it's socialism's failure and, like a good leftist company, you should be proud and happy to be able to contribute for "the cause" (aka, socialist programs).

"The city does not have a revenue problem--it has a spending efficiency problem," Herdener whined. "We are highly uncertain whether the city council's anti-business positions or its spending inefficiency will change for the better."

Welcome to the left-hand side of the aisle, Drew.

Amazon went in front of the city council complaining that Seattle was trying to push its responsibility for their homelessness problem onto corporations. Council member Lorena Gonzalez, in a moment of self-righteous indignation and false virtue signaling, tongue-lashed Amazon for their lack of compassion. 

Neither Amazon nor Starbucks said that they wanted Seattle to deal with their self-inflicted homeless problem on its own, but said they were trying to explain to the local government officials that the proposed "head tax," which charges all Seattle-based corporations a $275 surcharge per employee per year, would ever lower the cost of Seattle housing to an "affordable" level for those living on the street. Also, the tax doesn't do anything to solve Seattle's transient problem as it was caused by the same socialistic policies that caused the problem in the first place (see Venezuela for more details).


In fact, in 2009, Seattle had to repeal a similar "head tax" when businesses went elsewhere to make their fortunes and Seattle got its collective head out of its collective nether regions. The city spent more on fighting a gun tax lawsuit than it collected in taxes.

Starbucks' CEO John Kelly, said in a statement to the media that the city can't even manage to care for the homeless it currently has. "If they cannot provide a warm meal and safe bed to a 5-year-old child, no one believes they will be able to make housing affordable or address opiate addiction," he warned. 

The city had wanted to steal $500 per person for the "head tax." They've been planning this for about a year and on Monday night passed this taxation without representation bill and settled on $275 per person. 

The mayor, Jenny Durkan, is a progressive Democrat [did you have any doubts?] and a big fan of taxing. She had previously announced that she will used the "revenue" (aka taxes) from Seattle's guns and ammo tax to fund research into the health issues around guns.

Guns don't have health issues. 

Anyway, the "head tax" will supposedly raise $48 million per year, but only if large corporations agree to be part of this socialistic strategy that has a long history of failure, or if they refuse to add to the cost of doing business when they can easily go elsewhere.

Perhaps Seattle, like California, will attempt to celebrate the birthday of Karl Marx, but hopefully, large corporations will see through the fog of progressive policies.

Costco's Censorship and Why You Should Boycott Them

If a conservative doesn't like a TV show, he doesn't watch it. If a liberal doesn't like a TV show, he demands it be removed from the air. That's just the way it is. It's called intolerance in this case and censorship when it has to do with political views.

You might remember when a bunch of liberals tried to get Rush Limbaugh thrown off the radio because they simply don't like what he believes. They also tried the same with Scott Walker, the governor of Wisconsin, but the majority of voters didn't go along with the gimme gimme liberals and he won the recall election.

In Ray Bradbury's dystopian novel, "Fahrenheit 451" he describes a future America where books are outlawed and "firemen" do not put out fires, they burn books. The temperature at which paper spontaneously burns is 451 degrees Fahrenheit, which is where Bradbury got the idea for the title. But more importantly, the idea that books could be outlawed or censored in any society is deplorable.

This is exactly what Costco is doing reports the Washington Times.

Dinesh D'Souza's book, "America: Imagine a World Without Her," is being taken off the shelves of Costco for reasons that are unstated by the company. I believe I know why, however, and it really should piss you off as it did me. 

The book explores the damage done by progressive-minded policies, particularly by the Obama administration since he has been in office. These policies are supported by Jim Sinegal.

Sinegal, Costco's co-founder and "one percenter" big Democratic party donor, helped Barack Obama get re-elected in 2012. He even spoke at the Democratic National Convention. He loves Obama and Obama loves Jim.

It isn't that the book isn't selling. At Amazon it is ranked No. 43 overall and No. 3 in their Politics and Government. It is No. 1 in the Commentary and Opinion subsection of Politics and Government. In fact, Costco sold over 3600 copies of the book, but in spite of that, all the D'Souza books are to be off the shelves completely by the "Ides of July."

D'Souza is baffled by this and said, "If true, this would be very odd."

Amazon readers rate the book 4.6 out of 5. It sold 4915 copies in the first week and 5592 in the second. yet the New York Times (aka "The Old Gray Commie") mysteriously failed to list it on their bestseller list where it would have been No. 8 and No, 11 by June 29th, the WND reported. 

The Times should change their slogan to: "All the news we see fit to print."

And Costco should be boycotted.

Conservatives make up a majority in this country. We have more power than we realize but we tend to be either too nice to boycott or too caught up in our need for convenience and price. If all conservative Costco members turned in their cards, got their refunds for unused time on the remainder of the card, and emailed these censoring fools, it would make a difference.

But most people will not do it. I know, it's a hassle, but not as much as actually having to literally fight for our freedoms and rights. I did that in war and I hope you will do the same. No bloodshed, just no Costco. Sacrifice made easy.
