i'm in manuel's tavern in the high lands area of atlanta. this tavern was hoping with a big boost during the all-star game. the owner told me it would be the first truly profitable day since the pandemic. in 65 years since the shutdown, he told employees would no longer be able to keep the business going. the community rallied around the business, keeping it alive, offering money and business to this, taking take-out orders. he was truly looking forward to the all-star game as many folks around here. in fact the cobb county tourism travel bureau said they would lose $100 million over the week, by people coming in spending money. 19,000 hotel rooms booked by major league baseball will go unused. all that money left on the table as the game shifts over to colorado. people here on the ground very disappointed in this situation happened. back to you. stuart: i can understand it. edward lawrence, thank you very much. now i want to bring in georgia state senator matt brass who joins us now. matt, you have, i think, over 3,000 delta workers in your

he's in atlanta and he's talking to voters. what are they telling you? reporter: voters feel slighted by major league baseball and corporations. the conversation has changed on the ground here and one voter i talked with, void for prince said even some of the emergency action that was done in the last election were made permanent by the voting law, but he says it's up to the people of georgia and no one else, not the white house or anyone else, but the people of georgia to sort this out >> should have been more bipartisan as opposed to one side. that always raises problems. but the other side came out with the bill long before was ever ever signed and that site-- that starts a whole other frustrating level. no one is talking to each other anymore. reporter: he's frustrated by the rush to action in the rush to judgment on both sides. in business owner i talked to yesterday heard a lot of things about the bill, but he did what many others have not. >> it was very frustrating to find out it was actually happening and then to do a deep dive, personal dive in

in atlanta we still don't know what the motive was for the shooter. he seemed to have a twisted sexual fantasy he would remove temptation if he could remove the women. ashley: yeah. it is interesting, but do you think the public at large buys that narrative, bill? that it is not only covid but it is trump, white supremacy, all part of the same thing? can we give the public more credit to see right through that? >> i give them credit. i think a lot of people are skeptical but you know, you have this whole architecture of this critical race theory coming out to explain everything and they're documenting more and more crimes. i mean one of the problems is there have been attacks on asian-americans for a long time and they basically been ignored. there is an article in 2010 in the mercury news out in california about a spate of attacks, in this case black on asian attacks in that area. it is not new. it is hard, so relentless, you hardly see someone saying let's find out what the facts are. it is meant to override the facts, to leave an impression and it

, moving it to denver which i might note atlanta is 51% african-american denver is 9% african-american. so good job baseball you care about racial equality so much that you took 100 million dollars away from largely african-american small businesses, and atlanta and moved it to bunch of lily white businesses in denver. you've shown your virtue through and through. and i have to say my attitude i'm fed up with it. i'm sick of it. i think a lot of americans are sick of it. and so i announced this week as of this point going forward i will not accept any contributions from corporate packs not a penny in nine years corporate packs contradicted 2.6 million to my campaign and i've decided enough is enough. that if they're going behave as enemies of the american people, enemies of liberty if they're goapg going to engage in lice and willingly be weaponized as economic tools of punishment for the democratic party and the radicals, who are doing enormous damage to the country that -- that i want nothing to do with that endeavor. >> fair enough. senator cruz, you speak right to the issue, and we

gosh, not play a baseball game in atlanta. who gets hurt? senator warnock complains, who got hit these citizens. black churches complaining, who will get hurt? their constituents. they will lose their jobs. not get paid because people, you know, like major league baseball moving the game. so there is day of reckoning. you can't keep talking down to all of the rest of us. you are almighty. you know the right thing to do. no, we'll stand up, vote what we believe. we believe in election security. we believe in voter i.d. we don't want people to harvest ballots. all americans want that by the way. not just a few. but these ceo's are just, they're just part of the woke left crowd. that is it what they are. stuart: thank you for writing that editorial on foxbusiness.com, mr. senator. it was good stuff. now then, governor of florida, ron desantis, he says some of the covid restrictions that were recommended by dr. fauci weren't really all that effective. listen to this for a second. roll it. >> i think that it took me a few weeks, march into april

reporter: the commissioner of baseball says moving the game in the dropped out of atlanta demonstrates the values of major league baseball. county travel and tourism bureau estimates moving the game will cost local businesses including minority local businesses more than $100 million and senator chuck schumer said new york should host the all-star game and ironing is new york election loss offer fewer early voting days than georgia does and also no one can pass out food or water valued at more than a dollar in new york and new york ex .-dot fires an excuse for an absentee ballot in georgia does not, just ballot identification card is what you need to buy alcohol or even your covid vaccine. ashley: interesting. thank you. we should point out call the county which is where the game would be held voted for joe biden and now they will lose millions of revenue by not hosting the all-star game and we know major league baseball has come out against georgia's law to show id to vote, that mlb teams still require fans to show photo id to pick up their will call tickets and baseball is not the on
