those are his words, wrong a if el low atlanta-based u.p.s. saying it's actively engaged with political leaders on both sides of the aisle to advocate for more equitable access for voting and it stands ready to help every georgia voter get the ability to vote. but it's perhaps the statement from atlanta-based delta ceo ed bastion that struck na nerve in that memo to employees, he was saying that bill was not only unacceptable, but it doesn't match the values of delta air lines. adding that he is glad to deal with any wave of corporate criticism that comes and is ready to engage. so a lot of eyes on that >>> speaking of delta air lines, guys, it's signaling that things may be getting a little bit more back to normal in the wake of the covid pandemic starting on may 1st, the airline will resume bookings for those middle seats on all the flights. it is one of the last airlines to keep the middle seat open to keep more social distance on its flights. and by the way, you'll see meals and snacks being served in the coming weeks and months on certain

the metro atlanta economy is the tenth largest economy in the nation. so when you talk about boycotts in and around atlanta and the state as a whole, it's impacting small businesses. it impacts corporations that hire not just corporate officers but administrative assistants. people who clean up the building, work in the cafeteria. i respect the decision. i understand the decision, but i don't like the fact that we have been put in this position by our state legislature and our governor because the people of georgia will suffer. >> yeah. mayor bottoms, you've said that other dominos may fall as a result of this law in your state. have you heard from other companies who have signaled that they're not going do business in atlanta or in the state of georgia because of it? >> well, i do know that there are other large-scale events that are openly contemplating whether or not they will stay in our state. tourism is one of the largest industries in our state. delta airlines is one of the largest employers in our state. so this will have a devastating impact. a

atlanta is 51% black. denver is 9.2% black. the mlb is moving the all-star game out of atlanta, which has more day-of-voting rights than colorado. the wokes are at it again, folks. keep in mind, he is the only african-american republican senator from the great state of south carolina. this is just an impulse reaction. these are all these companies that are patting themselves on the back saying good for us. we did the right thing. we moved out. although it is built on a lie. it is not correct information. colorado is stricter than georgia is. and guess who is hurt? guess who doesn't make the money the people who would have worked those games. own the hotels the businesses and restaurant. just crushing to all those individuals. steve: we heard from the governor of georgia yesterday regarding those people and the people of atlanta where that stadium is located, the governor said it is 51% african-american. and they are moving the all-star game to denver, colorado, where they're 10% african-american. ainsley: not even that, 9.2. st

the community, you wouldn't necessarily want to pull out of atlanta. but that is an economic regiment. that's not a voter rights argument. but you've got a wide-open situation. nothing more perfectly fit and illustrated two divisions in this country than this battle. because on the one side, you have the democrats, who think that anything, or almost anything to do with ballot security, to do with voter integrity, it has to do with i.d. votes and all of the i.d. requirements and all of the rest of it is an attempt at voter suppression. on the other hand, conservatives and republicans are worried that this lax border security provision, such as nearly 100% mail-in voting are ripe for fraud. neither side trusts the other's motives. so, the result is that you have this bitter controversy into which major league baseball is now injected itself in the middle. now they may feel they have won a lot of points on one side, but they are going to lose a lot of ground with people on the other side. >> tucker: there are a lot of things to say about this, but you've

one was in boulder, colorado, the other in atlanta, georgia. there are a lot of ways we can measure the impact of gun violence. here is the president turning to a number of them. pres. biden: gun violence in america, for those of you who think of this from an economic standpoint, estimated to cost the nation $280 billion, let me say it again, $280 billion a ye. how could that be, joe? hospital bills. physical therapy. trauma counsing. legal fees. prison costs. and the loss of productivity. not to mention a psychological damage done to the children who live in these cits, watching this happen, knowing someone it happened two. ros: president biden has turned the responsibility for this towards the justice department. it has been given 30 days to come up with a new rule on reducing the distribution of ghost guns. 60 days to propose a new role tackling gun modifications. 60 days to propose a so-called red fly law for states. that would give courts a greater power to remove guns from people who are deemed a risk to the community. as you would imagin

georgia, they come for atlanta. that's where all the businesses are going. the modern day black wall street. so, that's the position that democrats want to go, okay, let's take it. but, the republicans are a problem, also. because although the democrats are factually wrong when it comes to the legislation, the republicans have a problem with the ground game in georgia. and i warned people of this in the past election. i went on air every single day and said there is this surge going on right now with voters and black voters are showing up for the democratic party. so the republicans have to provide alternatives for black america. you have got all these entrepreneurs there that believe in a free market, right? if you really believe in liberty, then go out there and sell it to those people. because, changing this legislation is not going to help you in the next election if they get more people to show up and vote. >> katie: that is a great point, dana, but back to the boycott. you have a number of these big companies

howie: jessica, by waiting several weeks after mass shootings in boarder and atlanta, even speech on guns got half a day of coverage as most of the press moved on from this difficult issue? jessica: i'm not sure he missed the moment and talked about the systematic issues that are the root cause of this in terms of obviously knowledge in what's going on in the rash of violence against asian americans like in the atlanta shooting, but i don't think that he missed the moment. joe biden has been a long-time friend to the gun reform movement. he's been supportive of organizations like every town and moms demand and when i did see the reaction from those organizations, they were positive. obviously tempered because this wasn't move toward assault weapons ban or federal gun registry. it was encouraging red flag laws, for instance, making sure we do more research, more community policing. but i want to push back on alex a little bit. obviously hunter biden has nothing to do with any of this and the idea that he comes up constantly, i don't understand. the answer for something that joe biden

why are you taking the all-star game out of atlanta which is going to cause georgia and specifically fulton county, democrats $100 million in revenue?? are you really that spineless? are you really that stupid? because the league apparently has no problem. mlb, they do business in china and we are learning tonight that mlb is bolstering its ties with one of china's largest tech companies. actually cracks down on that executive. by the way, can you pick up will call tickets for a baseball game, sporting event, concert if you don't have a picture i.d.? no, you cannot. senator marco rubio had the strong message for the commissioners saying i am under no illusion that it will sacrifice business revenue on behalf of its elected corporate values. similarly, i am under no illusion that you intend to resign as a member from augustine national yacht club. to do so would require a personal n sacrifice as opposedo the woke corporate virtue signaling of moving the all-star game to atlanta. why is joe biden not being held accountable for his role in starting and fueling the entire fire? peter doo

we talk about march 16, 8 people were killed in and around atlanta in six of them women of asian descent. on monday a 65 -year-old latina was brutally attacked in new york and was told she did not belong here by her attacker, nonsense. the men who witnessed the attack stood by and did not intervene or do anything. this is all makes your blood boil and makes your mouth file when you see this and it's infuriating and disgusting and totally unacceptable. unfortunately, it is nothing new. such acts against asian americans and pacific islanders have been increasing and becoming all too common in our country today. one way we can stamp that out is to speak up. on tuesday president biden announced additional actions to respond to anti- asian violence. he is a leader in this area the we are all grateful for and may he respond swiftly and strongly. there is no place in our country for hatred or racism of any kind and it betrays the idea of the foundation of our very country and we, as mayors, have to condemn and must condemn and we will continue to condemn any type of hatred or racist violence in

today the mlb announced it's moving the all star game from atlanta. where do you stand on this? do you welcome that move? >> listen, our actions have consequence. we've said for months now that voter suppression is bad for business. we said it directly to corporations and what you're seeing now is american voters who are voting with their dollars, that we've not seen a retraction, a retrenchment, we've seen republican legislatures across the country double down, that there are -- there's been a 43% increase in the number of anti-voting bills in legislatures across the country. i maintain that this is one of, if not the central organizing issue for the gop in this moment. the white lash that we are living through, that we are experiencing as a result of elevated voter participation has been severe, and it's been widespread, and that's why we're suing, and that's why we're calling on congress to pass hr 1 and hr 4 because fighting this piecemeal state by state by state is inefficient -- >> exactly. >> -- and we don't have time. there are municipal elections that are coming up this

atlanta is known as the modern day black wall street. i don't understand how you're going to help black folks when you bankrupt their companies by not giving them more business while they're already struggling during the middle of a pandemic and now you're saying leave, mlb. >> and you're talking about millions upon millions of dollars that the major league baseball all-star game brings into any city that hosts it, lawrence. have you the media that is echoing this lie and chris christie is exactly right. it is a lie what's being said about this georgia voting law. the washington post actually did a fact check of joe biden on this. he got four pinocchios for it. it's the worst possible rating you can get in terms of a claim and the president is lying about this. you have a media that's echoing it. cbs news over the weekend, here's the headline. three ways companies with help fight georgia's restrictive new voting law. so it's activeism, here's how you fight back and it says it's restrictive when it actually expands the law. major league b
