Never cheered for any of that. Downright wrong, although it was left on left violence.

The Paul Pelosi incident may have forced a slight raised eyebrow as he got hammered with what appeared to be a boyfriend and it all went hush real quick.

She was probably the most influential Speaker of the House in American History.

Maybe when it comes to picking stocks for her own benefit. Otherwise just another sick left wing activist doing her best to destroy the America so many died for.

Yes. Glad you asked.

Chambers of Commerce in those same states will have staggering membership increases. New competent workforces will arrive.

Was thinking more along the lines of corporations pulling out of Manhattan...

Started during COVID and continues. Folks do not realize the corporate vacancies in NYC now. First hand I have seen businesses leave for these other states. I have also been involved with the consulting side of this getting businesses out of NYS. Also involved moving whole families and entire workforces to other states. Never knew concierge services was in my blood!! lol.

It was already creeping and COVID just floored the accelerator. That's what happens when a population keeps voting for people to spend other people's money on them. The other people pack up and take their money with them. The new mayor is going to push it off a cliff.

I have said this in the past. Folks keep voting for this sick kind of existence, they deserve what they get. I have not heard of any folks missing NYC once they open their eyes to what other parts of the country offer.

Waiting to see “Wall Street” be a designated street in Miami or a more friendly city. Don’t be fooled. Business DOES NOT need NYC. COVID proved it.

Looks like the Schumer Shutdown may be close to being over. Nasty rotten egg on his face, for sure!!

Still want to know what "handout" they are getting, hopefully not too much waste. Especially not credits from COVID. Can you believe, 5 YEARS AGO!

Senate Democrats cave, open path to reopening government

The government shutdown neared its end on Sunday as the Senate cleared the first series of votes, with final House approval and President Donald Trump's signature still required.

www.foxnews.com

Among the defectors were Sens. Angus King, I-Maine, John Fetterman, D-Pa., Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., Tim Kaine, D-Va., and the number two Democrat in the Senate, Dick Durbin, D-Ill.

Nice to see Maine helping out.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, charged that it would be a "horrific mistake" for Democrats to cave now without an Obamacare deal.

"If Democrats cave on this issue, what it will say to Donald Trump is that he has a green light to go forward toward authoritarianism," Sanders said. "And I think that would be a tragedy for this country."

Oh no, Bernie - a constitutional crisis!!! The end of the world!!!

Democratic lawmakers reel after Senate votes to reopen government: 'Republican-made healthcare crisis'

The Senate reached a deal to reopen the government on Sunday after eight Democrats joined Republicans to hit 60 votes, drawing backlash from opponents of the resolution.

Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D–N.Y., "is no longer effective and should be replaced."

He has a point..........................................No longer effective in destroying America.

Texas cements business-friendly reputation after locking in tax bans

Texas voters approved constitutional amendments to ban certain taxes that will help cement the Lone Star State's business-friendly reputation.

www.foxbusiness.com

WOW

Here’s what the three measures mean:​

• Capital gains tax ban: Prevents Texas from ever taxing profits from the sale of investments, real estate, or other capital assets, a move meant to reassure investors and entrepreneurs.
• Securities transaction tax ban: Bars the state from imposing taxes on financial trades or payroll transactions, effectively ruling out a "Wall Street tax" on buying or selling stocks.
• Estate and inheritance tax ban: Prohibits any future taxation on wealth transfers after death, a safeguard for business owners and families looking to pass assets to heirs.

Supporters counter that Texas’ growing economy – now the eighth-largest in the world – generates more than enough revenue without such taxes, pointing to the state’s budget surplus and rapid job growth as evidence that low taxes can fuel prosperity rather than constrain it.

The timing is also strategic. The Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), which recently secured SEC approval, is slated to open in Dallas in 2026, positioning itself as a direct challenger to the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq.

I have been told that developments like this would not happen. NYSE and NYC is being phased out. Brought on by a blue state government mentality. Keep saying, take notes from Texas and others.......................
