    Obviously not. But certain sectors and states most definitely are. I'm looking at you Nevada, Florida and Hawaii... 

    So international tourism to the US is projected to be down about 5% in 2025. 

     

    International tourism represents about 20%of US tourism. 

     

    So 5% X 20% = 1% 

     

    Wow, how will they survive!

     

    I think the government no longer putting illegals into hotels will be a much bigger hit. 

     

    Hotels can always be leased an repurposed as ICE detention centers.

    If that's your POV, you're welcome to it .

    Personally I don't think Israel policy always comes up in mayor's races.
    It would if the candidate has taken any kind of position, and certainly any indication of support for Hamas (basically Iran).

    And if the population of the city is 15% Jewish.

    I don't want the guy to be mayor but there are plenty of American Muslims with progressive POV's including being pro LGBTQ civil rights. Yes they would be more secular.

    Unfortunately, many on the left are so anti-Israel now (understandable to be anti-Netanyahu) that they have supported Hamas.

    Yes I would hope voters would reject such people but it's their choice.

    What is a secular Muslim? It’s a religion, not a race.

    I don't care who said what about the Damage inflicted. Without photo or video evidence ie internal or smashed surface structures on other targets I will take it with a pinch of salt. Satellite evidence means nothing on the surface just 3 holes what's below the holes is the important factor and so far no evidence of destruction has come to light. Its the same as someone saying its raining outside without popping your head out of the window to see for yourself you rely on what you were told. What I will ask is what kind of a leader comes on Camera and uses foul language and call people scum ? and then throw in the old the crew risked there lives in this mission thank god for that the old heart string pull for maximum effect. DJ  will have to explain now why did he say talks are going on with Iran concerning there Nuclear Capabilities when Iran has said they never agreed to any talks. 

    I remember Biden calling me garbage. 

     

    It is amusing the left is all the sudden concerned about foul language, after promoting it’s use for the last fifty years.

    The SDNY (Southern District of New York) is straight-up the toughest federal corruptions office in the U.S. Their conviction rate is around 98%. If they bring charges, they’re confident they can win.
     

    The lead prosecutor on this case, Christy Slavik, is one of the very best in the country when it comes to closing arguments. She’s known for her powerful courtroom presence and precision in sealing convictions. In other words, when she steps up for closings, it's usually game over. She’s the one delivering the final statement later today.
     

    So no, this isn’t a slap-on-the-wrist scenario against a mega-celebrity. They’ve brought the top-tier team and have cut charges to focus on what they’re certain they can prove. This is as serious and as strategic as federal prosecutions get.

    While I don't think Diddy will do life, I do think he's looking at significant time. 10-20 years would be my guess.

    I think almost every prosecutors  office has a over a 90%  conviction rate. They don’t take anything they are not pretty sure they can win.
