On the Amazon move to NY and DC, there was one aspect of the decision that needs to be mentioned: part of the decision to move to those locations seems to have been motivated by the availability of tech workers, who would have been much harder to find in areas where there are few to no universities and colleges (and probably a lot of coal).

I am still not happy about a billion dollar tax break...

These wildfires ain’t no joke. I can’t even walk outside without an N95 mask and my eyes burning.

I work in the OR and the staff was panicking earlier today because there was TONS of smoke in there affecting everyone.

Makin it hard to rent a jump bike and go on a kombucha run.

That dude Mitch is pure white devil trash along with that broad from Mississippi...

It's been awful. I can smell the smoke inside my office. The air quality is so goddamn terrible right now.

Great positive step for prison reform

I don't see anything about private prisons, which would be unfortunate. I got a laugh out of this part:

Kushner, whose father spent time in prison, has cited his family's personal experience with the nation's criminal justice system for his advocacy on the issue.

BOO HOO

Out in coal country, we call that JUST ANOTHER WEDNESDAY.

Years of Democratic control is why you are having these problems. Try putting out those fires with all your libbie tears.

For real though -- stay safe. Hopefully things get better soon.

Does anyone think he sounds scared?



Edit: yeah, he's ******* scared.

 

[kdawg]

Yeah, other than the actual witch hunts that happened in Massachussets?

And they don't care how many lives they ruin? Riiiight.

 

[frenchbreadbuilds]

At this point i don’t even care if trump colluded or not. The more people Mueller wraps up in this investigation the more incompetent he looks.

 

[leavemeglazzies]

That dude with the beard is so much around Trump, he makes Kanye West look like Malcolm X.

Does anyone think he sounds scared?



Edit: yeah, he's ****ing scared.

Excuse my French, but WTF are we suppose to do with this?

We've got a situation, where the effing GOP welcomed Putin to install a two year old with mental and moral developmental issues in the frickin' White House. The **** is going on here?

Yea, this was the whole point. Glad you’re finally seeing it.

“Ruin lives” hmmm they’re going to jail for illegal acts that have......... actually ruined lives. Trump, go into the light. Let go

It’s important to note that never did he claim anyone was not guilty. Perfect for the backpeddle later

 

[dwalk31]

It’s inoortant to note that never did he claim anyone was not guilty. Perfect for the backpeddle later

How would he know whether they are guilty? They are being charged with things unrelated to him. Tax fraud, lying to the FBI, etc. Nothing to do with whether Russia colluded with the Trump campaign to influence the 2016 election.

Ive seen it from the jump. Doesn’t mean that the investigation isn’t paying dividends. Criminals are being targeted. If at the same time it exposes Donald true as someone who is unfit to hold the office then that’s a bonus.

 

[Kimchi Papi]

At best, the deplorable in chief tells half truths or wild exaggerations but most of the time it's outright lies.

@ him using fake news about others...
