Interesting. Good for him...and I also hope he gets his price.
DC will support NYC, so add them to the boycott!
For years when I shop for groceries. I check where manufactured. If its NY,or NJ it goes back on the shelf.
The only deliveries that should be made in NYC are additional busses full of illegal immigrants from Texas.
The ultimate solution would be to divide NY and jettison the 5 Burroughs.
Agree!!
They’re what has brought the rot, on to that once great city/state.
The rest of the great state suffers, because of them.
I hope the truckers will not deliver anything anywhere in New York state. Leticia James is the STATE Attorney General. She is not a county DA. The whole state needs to suffer for electing her. And I used to live in New York before it went completely bonkers.
Ship them all to NYC and then kick them out of the Union.
The establishment is trying to gaslight us on this strike. Remember when there was a protest in DC with 1 million people marching for life and it was never on national news?
“I thought I saw that the boycott was cancelled due to low participation.”
It is still picking up steam. Remember just a 10% drop in shipping into New York will cause prices to skyrocket and cripple parts of the city. New York barely has enough trucks supplying the city before this because of its traffic and extra freight charges. Truckers didn’t need much of an excuse to avoid shipping there.
“...Leticia’s James .... speaks for all New Yorkers...”
NO, SHE DOES NOT.
She was voted in. By the New Yorkers
Check again
This was a case of New York State vs Trump. my state won and wants $335 mill form Trump or more than that up front just to appeal it.
For instance:
“New York Creates Precedent That Could Threaten Every Big Business In New York, and Send Them Fleeing, With Their Money, to Safer Climes; Kathy Hochul Reassures Them By Admitting This Law Will be Applied to Trump Only and No One Else
Jonathan Turley on the huge, and unconstitutional, penalty the open partisan hack judge levied on Trump — and his demands that Trump put up the money for his exorbitant fine before Trump is allowed to challenge the fine as excessive.“
This isn’t Leticia James. This is the AG of NY representing New York
New Yorkers say, oh the 5 borough people do this.”
That’s lame
Checking...
I live in Niagara County. You can google that and see how close we are to those folks downstate.
Chico, CA does not share the same values as Los Angeles.
Springfield does not share the same values as Boston, MA
And do you really think the folks in Champaign, IL have the same values as say - Chicago?
The 5 boroughs and Long Island represent about 75% of the vote in this state. That AG is NOT supported by the state. The population is there, they have the majority.
... and if what I stated above is isn’t enough or just ‘lame’, how’s this:
The NY AG represents everyone in NY state just like Joe Biden represents everyone in America.
New York State just found Trump guilty.
You can whine about it, blame the city people all you want but nothing is being done to fix it If the truckers negatively affect westchester, and westchester doesn’t like it they ought to take a lesson from people trying to fix these things and get some ideas going. Lee Zeldin was a completely lame candidate to send up against Hochul. Cheating or no cheating.
Yup, boycott the place.
Fewer drivers and rigs, the remaining will charge top dollerar
Food and goods prices could surge up
New York is a huge problem. As a state, New York is interfering with the election in the case of the New York State AG going after Trump in a case decided by an arguably unethical judge and his ruling
People here whine that Westchester will be affected by the boycott
The country is affected by New Yorks ruling
I say New Yorkers quit whining
And I say so as a native New Yorker who would rather live in my native North Shore of Long Island but since the ‘80s cannot afford it.
Do New Yorkers who say it’s the borough people voting for this expect someone else to fix this problem? Because it needs to be fixed.
