A hotel and banquet hall in California has cancelled a scheduled "America First" rally after management learned that both Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene would be speaking at the event. The hotel doesn't think this is a good look for them, and they don't want to deal with any issues by hosting the two controversial figures. Farron Cousins discusses this and explains why the hotel made a smart decision.

A hotel in California announced that they were canceling an America first rally that had been scheduled at this hotel and banquet hall after they learned that two of the featured speakers were going to be Republican representatives, Marjorie Taylor green, and Matt gates

Here is what the general manager of that venue

Had to say. He said, as soon as we found out who the speakers were, we immediately canceled it. We just thought it would be best for our facility

To cancel. So they're not making

Any apologies for this. They're not trying to whitewash it or, you know, do the whole, we're not canceling them. We don't know. They're just like, screw it. We saw what the lineup was. And we looked at each other and said, holy crap, we can't let this happen. And I gotta tell you, I am a fan of free speech here in the United States. Everybody has the right to say what they want to say without fear of government censorship. That is actually what free speech means by the way. Um, but I am also 100% supportive of any venue that wants to cancel and appearance by Matt gates and or Marjorie Taylor green, just based on how horrible those two human beings are. Not even as representatives, but as human beings in general, the behavior we have seen from these two individuals, partisan politics aside, these in my opinion, are very gross human beings.

They're, they're, they're the worst of the worst,

Right? These aren't the kind of people you'd want to spend a nice Friday evening with you wouldn't want to go out and have drinks or meet up at a, you know, coffee shop just to chit chat with these are horribly gross, disgusting people. And they have repeatedly

Shown that with their behavior.

So again, I have no problem with this venue deciding, you know, what we don't want to associate with that we don't want to be seen as enablers of this kind of behavior. And of course the circus that always erupts when these two get together, we don't want any part of it. We know it's going to cost us money. Hell may even get us some bad publicity, but you know what we're willing to take that hit so that we don't appear to be condoning what happens there. So I applaud

The venue for doing the right thing here,

Putting money aside and saying, I know of course, as a business are only businesses making

Money, but we're willing to sacrifice that

To not get drawn into the riddles keyless

Idiocracy that these two individuals are trying to create. So good, good on the venue.

And I hope more venues, more hotels, more banquet halls,

Take note of this. It's okay to do this. It's

To not give these two idiots a platform to spread their hatred and their lies because that's all this

Is. And so anybody

Who helps the cut down, or at least stall hatred and lies here in the United States,

You're okay. In my book.
