Very interesting interview. I didn’t realize the feds also raided Gibson in 2009. They seized $500k worth of wood and are still holding it despite Gibson having never been charged for anything. Gibson is still in court fighting that one.
The Gibson prez says nearly all guitar companies use Indian rosewood fingerboard blanks yet Gibson is the only company that’s been raided. The host speculates that it might be the result of political donations or Gibson being a non-union shop and he replies that either might be possible. That tells me he’s contributed to Republicans and has gotten on the regime’s enemies list. You roll it all together — the union angle, the environmentalist angle, the political angle — and Gibson apparently makes an irresistibly juicy target.
“You roll it all together — the union angle, the environmentalist angle, the political angle — and Gibson apparently makes an irresistibly juicy target.”
Except that THIS target is going to fight back.....and I believe many Americans will support that. What has been taking place in this administration, particularly among the radical appointees and especially in the DOJ is unprecedented...and dangerous in a free society. And our free society is finally waking up...
“They seized $500k worth of wood and are still holding it “
No! They’re not still holding it! They made charcoal briquets out of the wood, and used them for White House cook outs!
Yes, that’s one of the main angles on the Breitbart sites. His competitor, CF Martin, has a CEO who gives heavily to Democrats, uses the same wood, and has not been raided.
