I just wanted to post this so everyone knows how the New York Times conducts business in New York City. They apparently never saw a tax break they didn't like.

How about also from all of those papers that Jayson Blair helped to sell, eh?

Trump has talked about the failing NY Times real estate fiascos in the past...he used to ridicule them for it on a regular basis at his rallies.

Of course the elites (especially liberal ones) have always been about “it’s good for thee, but not for me”.

Consider Barbara Streisand’s hilarious incident where she said everyone ought to dry their clothes on a line hanging outside. When asked if she were going to do that, oh no, heaven forbid.

Same with Gore and his mansion and all the electricity it guzzles, and his numerous flights everywhere. Man thinks you and I ought to pay through the nose and be rationed electricity, but not him.

And here we see the same thing at play with NYT. No surprise. Tax breaks bad for thee, great for me.

Elites, especially Democrats, have always been enormous hypocrites.

And they act “holier than thou” about Trump’s tax breaks.

Liberals are nauseating.

Disgraceful but not surprising.

The New York Times Building ...

The structure of this roof cap is exactly like the kind of telemetry tracker that NASA uses to identify dead pulsars in deep space.

Cold riveted girders with cores of pure selenium.
