i spoke earlier to paul brown who is the ceo of atlanta-based inspire brands. it just complete ad 11 billion-dollar acquisition of dunkin' brands. >> it really rounds out our portfolio very well. it puts us in the breakfast day partner. we'll be most balances in the day parts of any restaurant companies. it brings us tremendous amount of scale from loyalty standpoint, digital standpoint and brought us access to the international market where we were very small outside the united states inspire. almost 40% of our restaurants outside of the u.s. with dunkin' brands. connell: will you keep going? that is the question, you have been making acquisitions at quite a pace, is this it? or is there more to come? >> i will never say this is it. if the opportunity comes along we'll be happy to take advantage of it. we're feeling good about the portfolio size of our business. we're the second largest restaurant in the u.s. based on scale. we achieved the scale objective. connell: it is mcdonald's and inspire brands? >> yes. connell: a lot of people might not know that. they

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

we want to split away from atlanta. we want our own police force because we're seeing atlanta crime skyrocketing. they're talking about a 63% increase in murder. rapes are doubling. psalms are up nearly, about a third. so -- assaults are doubling up about a third. local towns are saying we don't want anything to do with these cities. >> that is exactly right, emac. when you talk about public safety and year-over-year crime increases in atlantas and understaffed resources atlanta police department don't have because of local politics, it isn't a wonder buckhead wants to have their own police department. if the republicans take over the house in 2020 it will be public safety. out of 50 states, only 27 have a republican governor. of top 30 cities in the country, only three have republican mayors. you will see jostling between republican policies and democrat policies. elizabeth: it is like a double-whammy, lockdown policies and defund the police. you're seeing for example in wisconsin, the republican legislature there sayi

federal reserve when i was in atlanta last week. if the vaccine rolls out the economy will get rolling pretty well also. but that the is is the caveat but to your earlier point we need to pick that up, is that right? >> yes the numbers have to be significantly greater. we have to have 70 to 80% of population having immunity or vaccine through the disease. we prefer it to be through the vaccine. hundreds of millions of individuals need to be vaccinated and we're just not on that path right now. if we're going to get there within the second quarter, by the end of the second quarter of this year that we've really got to increase our ability to get these vaccines in peoples arms. so all that we can do to make that happen will improve the economy. imagine if you would the confidence that you would feel or anybody would feel if we got 80% of the population with immunity and knowing that there is not a possibility of the disease to have this kind of spike like we're currently having. connell: do we need a stronger national approach to have

they are saying we want to split away from atlanta. we want to have our own police force because we are seeing atlanta crime skyrocketing. you are talking about a 63% in treason murder and assaults are up about one third. we are seeing local parent thing we do want to have anything to dore with the cities. >> that's exactly right and when you talk about public safety the year-over-year crime increases and we have seen it in atlanta and the other in understaffed resources atlanta police department has. it'ses no wonder a suburb like bucket wants to break away and have own police department but if republicans take back the house in 2022 it's going to be largely because public safety and the fact that democrats. particularly in these major cities have turned a blind eye. just so we are clear out of the 50 states only 27 have a republican governor and believe it or not the top 30 cities in this country only three have republican mayors. you will continue to see this jostling between public -- republican and democratic policies. liz: the do

atlanta is majority african american and yet yet major league baseball decides to punish atlanta. it doesn't make sense. they are so inconsistent whatever they do. i agree with you, if you are going to do this, do it to every state, be fair to everybody but they don't want to go that route. this is a gift, political gift to the republican party in georgia. i think brian kemp has done a very good job. he has been very even-handed on this, as has the state legislature. this was not some bill dropped overnight. it was debated over the entire legislative session. they knew about it. everyone was invited to the table. elizabeth: got it. biden and democrats are accused of misleading, bullying and pulling down atlanta with a phony, with the boycott based on a phony racism charge. like the major league baseball and companies and democrats don't know what they're talking about. they didn't even read the georgia voting law. you got president obama calling for baseball and companies to boycott georgia. remember when obama sat next to raul castro in communist cuba to watch a baseball game in

the atlanta shootings were tragic, but they were motivated by a young man's sexual torment and guilt for his sexual longingsings. they had nothing to do with coronavirus-inspired hatred for asians. the man was on his way to a porn business in florida to commit more shootings that would have had no asian victims presumably whatsoever. nevertheless, in the face of blatant contradictory evidence, we've had both biden and harris taking up their usual theme about the hatred of whites for the rest of america, the mainstream media's pushing this. we have the daily protests by asians saying i am not a virus. here's what has been going on, stuart. there has been a series of very gruesome, brutal and sadistic attacks on elderly asian senior citizens. they have been committed overwhelmingly by blacks. in new york city, a black new yorker is over six times more likely to commit a hate crime against an asian as a white person is. i go into the details of some of these in a recent article of mine. they are heart-wren. ing, but that is not what's being acknowledged in the media. we keep hearing abo

high-frequency data points we've had in recent weeks reported by the federal reserve bank of new york in atlanta alike which continue to show well above trend economic activity. there's a lot of momentum of the economy that is helping the corporate earnings growth that we see companies report coming out of the end of the second quarter and once again will helps instantiate that pace of earnings growth for quite some time which is rewarding chair prices and why we continue to operate at or about all-time highs in the marketplace. this is a setting that is supportive of the federal reserve can continue their options with regard to withdrawal some of the emergency measures that were undertaken to help the economic activity in the immediate aftermath of the pandemic. however, i think the market is prepared for the prospects beginning to work off some of those majors and i think were likely to hear more about that in the coming fed meetings particular the one next in the lineup in september. maria: i know you're also focused on the employment report in september let's not forget many of the stimulus
