i'm edward lawrence talking in atlanta talking about georgia law. they want law i makers to listen to one other. some like the law. some doesn't leak the waa. they should allow people all the way up to the polling site door, not 150 feet away. they hope the national attention will push people to change the law. >> people listen to respond, not listen to actually understand. i'm not saying that one side or the other is going to be completely happy with everything that is done but a think a lot more listening can be done. reporter: others agree with the law it actually expands voting by adding 17 days of early voting, including both weekend days. yesterday we were at manuel's tavern that almost went under after 65 years of business during the pandemic. the community rallied to save the tavern. overall the law is not bad but reaction to the law has been disappointing. >> we're manuel's tavern. so much happened in that little tavern between all the different groups that wanted to get stuff done. they all got together, over a beer, made it happen. we're

over half of the population in atlanta is black. the revenue loss from the all-star game going away could total more than $100 million in lost tourism revenue to the area according to one official. but when you're looking at the voting laws, the reason why mlb moved the game out of georgia to colorado, when you compare the two states, colorado has fewer days of early voting than georgia. 15 days to georgia's 17. both states require a valid i.d. to vote by mail and in person. they also both allow no excuse vote by mail. but politicians on the local level in georgia could be having the biggest impact on businesses that are choosing to take a political position on this. georgia house voted to strip delta, one of the outspoken corporations of millions of dollars in tax breaks. the georgia senate still has to weigh in on this before the bill potentially could land on the governor's desk for him to sign offer on. but the bottom line is, there can be consequences on the local level for these corporations. we also, david, did reach out to m

♪ david: a live look at truist park in atlanta. this, of course, is where the atlanta braves play. business around the park were hoping to cash in from this year's all-star game, now they're grappling with huge losses. edward lawrence, how much money are businesses going to lose from this? >> reporter: it's not just the direct impact, it's that money that comes from people coming in and spending here. you know, it's a gut punch, disappointing. those are the terms i've heard from business owners about moving the game over to colorado. this is manuel's tavern, lunchtime here. the owner had planned a bun bunch of activities leading up to this game, but it's not just restaurants. i talked with the owner of atlanta rx, it's a cbd shop, and he says that he's looking at an economic impact. listen. >> according to our analytics, about 10% of our business is from out of town. very touristy area, and we definitely will be affected by the all-star game moving to colorado. >> reporter: are you disappointed? >> yeah, very disappointed. >> reporter: and the cobb county travel ask tourism board s

dell computers in texas, and american airlines, and in atlanta, delta and coca-cola. sports business is trillion dollar global scale, trillion dollar domestically ecosystem. they depend on each other, media, corporate sponsors, fans, right now to your point, neil, it is fans that are losing in this ecosystem of imbalance. neil: i'm just wondering whether the fans protest by either not watching on tv or not going to the games, even where there are, you know, limited if any restrictions on crowd capacity such as arlington, texas, where you can fill it to the max and not have any issues? i'm discuss wondering whether it might show up that way? people drop out on the attendance when baseball desperately needs them? >> baseball is absolutely fan attendance driven sport unlike others the does. they don't have the television deals and merchandise, which led to 70% drop in the covid year. baseball is looking at this presumably from a balance sheet standpoint first. within that what are key drivers and indicators, kpis, give u.s. the red flags or green flags in the proverbial

he mentioned major league baseball should boycott atlanta in the espn interview. that put a lot of pressure on him. neil: a lot of pressure. well-put, my friend, thank you very much. charlie gasparino, following all of those developments. the big story of the day right now seems to be johnson & johnson and its vaccine, a pause, something close to 7 million doses administered in this country because of six blood clot related developments not tied to it. the pause is on. we'll see for how long. to charles payne right now. hey, charles. charles: good seeing you, neil, my friend. i'm charles payne. this is "making money." breaking now the s&p 500 back at a record high despite the biggest scrum in inflation in nine years. the question, is this temporary or not. we're less than 24 hours for the most exciting ipo in years. coinbase how much will investors chase the stock. we'll discuss. our market

first to my buddy jonathan serrie in atlanta. this is good news, jonathan, with better and more efficacy rates in general. what do you make of it? reporter: overall this is fantastic news. even the 9% that might come down with some covid-19 symptoms, it appears this vaccine is 100% effective in blocking the most serious symptoms. now another company is facing a setback. the fda investigating one of johnson & johnson's manufacturing partners after improperly mixed ingredients led to spoiling or wasting of some 15 million doses of covid-19 vaccine. j&j said quality control checks at emergent biosolutions plant in baltimore identified a batch of drug substance not up to standards. it never advanced to the filling and finishing stages. in a statement johnson & johnson says, this is an example of the rigorous quality control applied to each batch of drug substance. the issue was identified, addressed with emergence and the food and drug administration. "politico" reports that biden health administration some folks in the white house n

bob mansfield worried about player boycotts if he didn't change venues out of atlanta because of the georgia voting law and charges by some activists including the president who called it racist, jim crow on steroids, he worried about some player boycotts if he moved it out. now that he is moving out, it appears -- getting this from major-league sources, the team in the league is inundated with complaints over the decision to move out of georgia. for subscriptions, to have baseball on their cable packages. bob mansfield's political move to endorse critics of the voting rights law. it is unclear how big this will do, i guess there is a lesson for woke ceos. if you go that route you stand a good chance of annoying, having the public not buy your products. we should point out that 71 million people voted for donald trump, almost half the country. that is a lot of people to boycott major league baseball and we should point out baseball fans generally trended republican and conservative. bob manfred has a problem on his hands. neil: kim blackwell is with us, former secretary of state of o

steve harrigan in atlanta on all of that. want to go to dr. tom price, former health and human services secretary, congressman and doctor by training. he's the whole package, and he speaks his own mind. he doesn't play politics. i always admire that. doctor, good to have you the -- >> thanks, neil. good to be with you. neil: your take on this latest data and the comments from the cdc director saying those vaccinated can feel safe to travel, others just use some caution, but certainly more promising than her doomful comments a week ago. what do you think? >> no, you're absolutely right. and i think there's wonderful news that's coming from the vaccine side. remember, this is a new disease. it's only been with us for a little over a year, and to consequently the vaccines didn't have the timeline in their trials to be able to determine how long the vaccines would be effective. and it appears they continue to be effective at least six months after their administration which is great news for folks as we move into the summer months. also as your re

will visit jimmy carter, rose lynn carter in atlanta. jonathan serrie in duluth georgia with all of this? reporter: neil, president biden is celebrating the first 100 days in office here in georgia. not only did the peach state help him get into the white house, but georgia gave the president's party a slim majority in the senate with the elections of democrats rafael warnock and john ossoff and that as allowed president biden to pursue a more ambitious agenda especially when it comes to government spending. that includes the american families plan, american jobs plan, american rescue plan, adding up to nearly $6 trillion in government spending. the president planned to celebrate passage of covid relief during the first visit to georgia back in march. neil: all right. we just lost jonathan scary. i apologize for that. you don't really want to know the technical issues we've been having. they're figuring it out. meantime i do want to go to tom bevin, "real clear politics," cofounder there. tom, the president obviously is taking this trip

going to happen, customers will ultimately squash some of the woke is that people will not go to the atlanta falcons game if author link becomes a social warrior, already them will be from what i understand is getting inundated with complaints from long-term customers on the georgia law and that's when described, no offense but why do i have to fly delta if they are against what i believe and politically. this is going to be a long battle, it is fascinating that corporate america and the republican party are breaking up in corporate america is becoming the party of the left but i'll tell you this if arthur blank or any of these guys, the guy from work think that elizabeth warren and aoc are going to back off because you do and support some of the stuff, they are out of their minds. you cannot buy them all. david: you should throw the chamber of commerce into the mix, they have been speaking woke language the past few months. >> they will never be able to convince aoc that they are good guys. listen look with one with amazon the most progressive company out there is been attacked left and rig

i think they came out against the mlb having its all-star game in atlanta. i have to check that. but they caught a lot of flak from their customers, so now what they're seeing, despite the wokeness of corporate america, customers are fighting back and also republican elected officials. this wokism is not that great for business. neil, back to you. neil: still as curious, i always look at jamie dimon as a pretty savvy political player as well. while this was going on his not signing on to this particular measure he did announce that jpmorgan chase is allocating about 2 1/2 trillion over the next ten years for climate change solutions, that sort of thing. it is as if he was trying to signal to the left you know, this is a cause near and dear to me and you, on this we can agree. what did you make of the timing of all of that? >> listen, everybody, listen, all the ceo's kiss up to the wokeness to a certain degree. it is not beyond jamie dimon for being a little woke. i will say this though, attacking voter laws extremely popular in red states what it really comes down to, i don't thi

really, throw everything what is going on, atlanta, cdc, covering rocket launches. scrupulous about it all. dan geltrude back with us. shana sissel is back with us. dan, we talk a little bit about the out of this world stuff, but i'm looking at the price tag on some of this spending, infrastructure, 2 1/2 trillion on the jobs act and all, how will we pay for all of this? >> what they're telling everyone is that we're going to have corporations pay for this. we're going to have cavuto and all his rich friends pay for this but the point is, neil, eventually you run out of that money and to me it is all about propaganda. let's look at the names they're calling this. the americans job plan. the american families plan. those things sound nice and they're popular. joe biden says these spending programs are very popular. start telling people the truth. this is spend us into bankruptcy plan. that can't continue forever and the reason it is happened to this point, neil, there has never been any consequences to our wild spending. sooner or later the bill will come due. at tha

jonathan seri with the latest from atlanta. reporter: hi there, neil. well the cdc is convening its expert panel of vaccine experts. this is an independent panel that gives the cdc, fda and other regulators advice in this case on how to proceed with the johnson & johnson vaccine. u.s. health officials recommended a temporary pause as they investigate a possible link between j & j's vaccine and a small number of women who developed a rare form of blood clot 6-13 days after receiving the shot. with only six cases reported out of the 6.8 million vaccinations now more than 7 million critics say the feds are being overly cautious and may unncesssarily frighten people away from potentially life saving vaccines but federal health officials say it's the safety culture that should reassure americans. >> jointly, cdc and fda were able to identify these rare events, and act quickly to alert healthcare providers and the public. this demonstrates that the safety systems we have in place are working. >> it should reinforce, in those individuals, how we take safety so

from president biden. >> what about the possibility that baseball to move the all-star game out of atlanta because of the political issue. >> i would strongly support them doing that, that is not right, this is jim crow on steroids what they're doing in georgia. david: our next guest says the message coming from biden and the democrats is not just a lie, now they have corporate america pushing their false narrative for them, the wall street jour want to make a name for yourself in gaming? then make a name for yourself. even if your office, and bank balance are... far from glamorous. that means expensing nothing but pizza. your expenses look good, and your books are set for the month! ...going up against this guy... and pitching your idea 100 times. no, no, no! no. i like it. -he likes it! ...and you definitely love that. intuit quickbooks helps small businesses be more successful with payments, payroll, banking and live bookkeeping. keeping your oysters business growing has you swamped. you need to hire. i need indeed indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a shortlis

but it's quickly jerking into a embarrassment after moving the all-star game from atlanta to georgia over georgia supposedly voting rights laws the prominent colorado's voting rights law, awfully similar embarrassingly sober if you think the hypocrisy is good then pined to your batting thousand for the mlb is when the corporations have spoken out against the georgia laws which do sinister things like calling for voting id requirements. coca-cola, delta air lines, they are among them. early today senate majority said this whole situation is absurd. >> most type major league baseball is pretty important corporation. if they applied the same standard they apply to georgia, they could not have games in st. louis because missouri has a more restrictive voter law than georgia, then the new georgia law. what about the yankees? new york has a more restrictive voter participation law then they new georgia law. where is it at? so, my warning if you will to corporate america is to stay out of politics. >> gave big dumb dumb son let's go yankees by the staff and present biden responded to questi

now that you have joe biden even claiming that it may be good for the all-star game to move out of atlanta, here is the question i have, who does that help? who does the boycotts help with this not help the georgians who plan to work that event, maybe the hospitality industry that they're going to make up some losses financial losses they had during covid, there is a reason even stacy abrams came out and said these boycotts are harming the people they say they're trying to help. i don't understand the game plan other to say this is a long push for changes on a lateral level federal level hr when i think that's with her ultimate pushing for. before you invoke the phrase of old which is worse than jim crow. jim porro on steroids which is historically illiterate. so kevin i want to come to you. i understand you probably do not support the law, but shouldn't president biden not lie about the law? he was last week in a press conference making statements about what was in this legislation involving what he said was curtailing boating hours on voting day to target workers. it turned out that was

were as well so now you have joe biden claiming it may be good for the all-star game to move out of atlanta. who does that help? the boycotts help? it doesn't help georgians who plan to work the oven, maybe hospitality industry without they would make up losses, financial offers they had during covid, there's a reason why stacey abrams came out and said the boycotts are harming the people, they say they are trying to help them. i don't understand the game plan other than to say it's a long push for changes on the federal issue, federal legislation, hr one, i think that's what they are ultimately pushing. >> you say relic of jim crow, that's almost welcomed demagoguery compared to what biden said which is worse than jim crow. jim crow on steroids which is historically illiterate. kevin, i understand you probably don't support the law but shouldn't president biden not lie about the law? he was last week in a press conference making statements about what was in the legislation involving what he said was curtailing of voting hours on voting day to target workers and it turned out that was absol

the ceos especially delta and coca-cola because they cost atlanta $100 million of getting rid of the all-star game they are bending to the woke left narrative that the election laws are races orra restrictive and that is not right. that is just a partisan democratic narrative, that is all it is, calling for what it is and pointed out by dan hann a and is beautiful wall street journal columnist, he calls these guys zoom ceos in the unkind cu of all he compares them to the ceos from the libby left the world economic forum. no matter how much the zoom ceos kick democratic but, kissed democratic but, they are still going to get tax and regulated to death. trust me, trustst me. they should wise up and protect the economic interest and not venture into social policies. if you need any more proof of how wrong the ceos are, a new poll to a liberal democratic pull. 58% of registered voters oppose american companies using their public role to influence political or cultural or social change. only 35% support. 58 - 35 and that the democratic leading pole, we do have my favorite democrat former

screwed in this, martha, it's a small hard-working business people that are up in cobb county at metro atlanta area they're going to be hurt by the all-star game being pulled from here. this is outrageous. people need to stand up and join the fight and say look, we are done with the canceled culture and this pressuring. >> i am just going to boycott everything. president trump is now called for a boycott of the boycott or spring wants everyone to stop watching mld and screw all of those like-minded corporations. we can say screw now. is corporate america aching a mistake by picking a fight with the republican voters? who wins in the end? let's make tonight's party pouts a good way of the gary and shannon show on amp 640 in los angeles it is gary hoffman. i've democrat strategists and rubble communication strategist laura fink and gorgeous and yellow. 2020 libertarian candidate vp candidate the water to lease by cohen back in the octagon. let's go party people. all right, so gary you are a newsman you have been for many years. the one thing i have not heard in terms of these boycotts in this co
