A week into the fiasco over Georgia's election law, most Americans want to know: just who are these woke CEOs listening to? Not to their shareholders, who can't make a profit when their companies alienate half of the country. Not to lawyers or legislators, who could set them straight on what the policy actually does. And certainly not to U.S. consumers, who are sending a resounding message that they're done with businesses who can't check their radicalism at the door long enough to read a 98-page piece of legislation.
"It's insanity," Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) agreed on "Washington Watch." Like most people, he can't believe that Major League Baseball, Coca-Cola, Delta, and so many others would put the solvency of their companies on the line to make a political point that -- it turns out -- isn't even true! When even MSNBC is telling Joe Biden he "needs to keep it honest," the Democratic Party has reached a low even the liberal media can't believe. And yet the White House and its field marshals in Hollywood and Atlanta created such a ridiculous narrative about this law that people like Willie Geist are going on the most radical news outlet in the country and insisting it's impossible to "square the president's argument."
"[D]oesn't it seem that a lot of people jumped the gun?" Joe Scarborough asked in follow-up. They moved the MLB All-Star Game "before actually either reading the bill or understanding how the bill lined up with New Jersey laws, with New York laws, with laws all across the nation," he said. Then, astounding even more viewers, he took aim at the lynchpin of the Left's whole argument. "...

Boycott the Wokey McWokersons and remove their targeted tax breaks.
PING!
I am. *sigh* I love Caffeine Free Diet Coke and St. Louis Cardinals baseball, but not any more.
https://www.coca-colacompany.com/brands Any of these on your list?
Woke-A-Cola.
From a formerly respectable company that used to think that their task was to give the public a good tasting drink that they wanted.
Then they thought they’d teach morals, and picked the Black Lives Matter group of failures, pretenders, and misfits to back.
Bwahahahahahahahahahaha.
Shove it, Woke-A-Cola.
I do drink Powerade Zero but I’ll switch to Gatorade Zero. The rest don’t affect me. Thanks for the info.
Don’t use any of that stuff.......and I’ll tell my kids to start making their own tea or do without.....they like Gold Leaf....brother!!!
There is a version of CFDC that’s even healthier. It’s called “water.”
Home Depot is also on that list.
As for baseball, a sports reporter stated on FOX Business that the players were the ones pushing the boycott of Atlanta.
No! Please, FRiend, drinking the swill that is Gatorade is too much of us to ask if you!
“...the players were the ones pushing the boycott of Atlanta.”
I have heard this is not true, that it hadn’t even been discussed. But I also heard that the guy who is the head of the Union did push it.
That isn’ ALL of them, by a long shot. Buycott ALL of their brands!
I gave up Caffeine Free regular coke for Lent because my doctor wants me to drink soda rarely, and that’s the only one I drank. I did so well, I have completely eliminated it, with zero feeling of ever drinking it again. I just don’t even miss it like I did the first week or so. Give yourself some time, but if you are determined, you too, can be rid of something that’s horrible for you, as well as returning the “favor” that Coca-cola is dishing out.
Players I heard said they were not asked anything about the Atlanta Boycott - they had no idea until it was announced.
Home Despot?
The MLB team owner’s “agent”, Commissioner Rob Manfred,
made the decision without consulting the players union.
Simply Orange Juice
Schweppe's Tonic Water
Peace Tea
I can get replacements for Schweppe's and Peace Tea, but there's nothing quite as good as Simply fruit juices.
But sacrifices have to be made...
I sent Coke a nastygram and informed them that I was done with them forever. Previously, I had been one of their most loyal and high volume customers for 45 years.
I stopped it with the coke today. its a real habit for me. switched to generic sams club today and plan to try difrent colas till I find one I like....my small kick at coke is about 60 dollars a month.
