A conentrated response by decent people on Marriott would be most appropriate at this time. Sure to irritate Romney immensely. Eventually the time will come where all these companies that have joined the assault on free speech and American rights will be properly disciplind.

The level to which America has become a Corporatist State is hard to beleive. When I was younger I used to think people who decried the influence of big-businesses on the nation as deranged hippies, but arter recent developments it’s crystal clear: These entities are utterly contemptuous of any national responsibilities of any kind. They are all-in for themselves, justifying their profit-uber-all philosophy by latching on to Woke “morality”. I hope I live to see the day that they are brought back down to Earth.

This show just how much even honest straight arrows are influenced and bought. There should be some law that penalizes companies or persons who attempt to punish or coerce representatives or senators for merely conducting their duties.

Sens. Cruz and Hawley acted according to their consciences, and their Oath of Office.

They DO NOT deserve ANY of the consequences for “domestic terrorism” that the radical Dims—and some misguided Republicans—want to put on them!!!!

Moreover, the BLM/AntiFa riots in our cities all last year were MUCH, MUCH worse than the Capitol incursion, and NONE of the radical Dims want do anything against these miscreants.

And the Color Revolution that unjustly swept biden/harris into the Presidency is the worst of all!!!! The BLM/AntiFa riots are part of that revolution, so no one can call it “nonviolent”!!!!

It’s not so much their choice of stopping donations that bothers me, but their notion that challenging suspect electoral slates is “subversion”, “impeding the peaceful transfer of power”, etc. If it were just the donations, I’m not sure I would give a rat’s hind end. But the rhetoric makes some of them worth boycotting.

Let’s start with Marriott Hotels and Commerce Bank. The travel industry is in a pickle due to COVID, so Marriott is a weak point. Don’t stay in any Marriott hotels.

And close out all accounts at Commerce Bank. Deutsche Bank, too. Boycotting a bank sends notice that we’re willing to stress the financial system itself to fight back.

PING!
