Big business is moving out of California as COVID restrictions stymie a return to normalcy within the Blue state.
With the Super Bowl just weeks away and scheduled to be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA, the NFL is keeping a second venue on standby in the great state of Texas — where COVID restrictions don’t impact one’s livelihood or business, unlike Los Angeles.

While the NFL mulls a move to AT&T Stadium in Dallas, they’ll need to assess whether there’s the security of an unrestricted Super Bowl coming from CA Gov. Gavin Newsom or sounder policy in states like Florida and Texas … as endorsed by New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

"Based on the data, I just don’t believe that Los Angeles and the state of California, based on their COVID insanity so far, is going to allow there to be a full football stadium in the middle of February. If you look at the trajectory of where exactly we are headed … "
