plenty of Biden/Harris supporters; note Dominion Voting-connected Carlyle Group:

The partnership — the major advocacy and political influence arm for the business community in New York — counts many of the city’s top firms as its members. Among the signers included leaders of Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Pfizer, the National Basketball Association, Mastercard, Blackstone Group, BlackRock, Lyft, Deloitte, Warby Parker, Moody’s, WeWork, Ernst & Young, JetBlue, MetLife, Condé Nast, the Carlyle Group, Hearst, American Express, Saks Fifth Avenue, Price Waterhouse Cooper and Deutsche Bank, along with 150 more.
Others who signed include some of New York’s top private equity and real estate figures including Henry Kravis, Rob Speyer, William Rudin and Laurence Fink.

They’re concerned about their business with the ChiComs. The chemical industry, for example, wants an end to Trump’s trade war with China. That’s been reported in the latest issue of Chemical Engineering News.

Just sell out your republic for a few pieces of silver. I note that my senator, Pat Toomey, has been one of the most vocal opponents of Trump. This is the first time in his insignificant senate career that he’s had anything to say about anything. Mostly, he’s been invisible. Too bad Mr. Club for Growth hasn’t stayed that way.

Guess they like paying bribes, er donations, to their Marxist/criminal overlords.

I’ve been boycotting a couple of them near me. Got to expand my list and find some pro-American companies to buy from.

List the companies names at the Jan. 6th protests. Can’t hurt and they will hate the bad publicity.

Obviously they weren’t looted, robbed, then burned to the ground. Time for another Tea Party.

Doesn’t matter when the government is handing out “stimulus” money to keep them profitable.
