On the saving of 1000 jobs at Carrier www.electoral-vote.com has an item on it today, as well as others. Here is a short excerpt:
.
Relocating those 1,000 “saved” jobs was reportedly going to save Carrier $65 million per year; a corporation does not swallow that kind of money just because a president-elect makes a phone call or two. CNBC is reporting that Trump and the state of Indiana have offered “inducements,” which sounds very much like some sort of corporate welfare. If the government is going to be effectively paying the salaries of those workers, then no actual problem has been solved.
Not a Trump supporter, but he did successfully troll most of the Clinton supporters. She sponsored a bill to jail flag burners in 2005. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_Protection_Act_of_2005

For Trump, money talks. If you want free speech, pony up.

Just unplug his microphone and remove the battery from his cellphone. The world could be sooooooo much quieter.
