Amazon pulls out of $3 billion deal to bring headquarters to NYC, and you can thank Ocasio-Cortez and Democrats for this!

by The Right Scoop

As you may have seen on the news by now, Amazon has pulled out of their big $3 billion deal to build a new headquarters in New York City that would also bring over 25,000 high paying jobs with it.

Here’s what they say in their press release via the New York Post:

“For Amazon, the commitment to build a new headquarters requires positive, collaborative relationships with state and local elected officials who will be supportive over the long-term,” the company said.

“While polls show that 70 percent of New Yorkers support our plans and investment, a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City.”

Now of course Ocasio-Cortez isn’t a state or local politician, but she has been campaigning against this for months now and certainly represents those Democrats in her state that opposed it.

She’s already celebrating the pull-out on Twitter:

Here are a few of her past tweets on it:




There are a lot more tweets from her on this, but you get the picture. Because of AOC and her ilk, which are the Democrat state and local politicians who opposed this, major economic growth has been stymied. That’s 25,000 jobs with an average salary of $150,000 per year, or $3,750,000,000 per year, all lost.

This is socialism for ya.

But hey New York, this is what you deserve for voting in these ridiculous Democrat politicians. You made your bed and now they’re gonna make you lie in it.
