  1. Blackrock?? How about Blackstone??

  2. Get woke go broke no joke.

  3. Conservatives should only do business with conservatives and watch the liberals bleed financially. Freedom of choice

  4. PUT A STOP TO "WOKE IDEOLOGY" IN THE USA PEOPLE!

  5. What a smart man in Missouri!! Black Rock is dangerous!!!

  6. FJB AND HARRIS AND THE WOKE!!!

  7. Stakeholder capitalism is the new communism. How does this benefit blackrock? They can just nationalize your assets and give you nothing in return. For now your holdings are in "street name" meaning owned by the custodian/broker-dealer which is not far off and is compatible with "communism"

  8. Verizon is spending billions, 3 billion so far in green bonds to purchase carbon free electricity. This debt increases interest costs and Verizon has recently had to raise prices for cell phone accounts and as a result Verizon is losing customers. Verizon management and board is being very generous with shareholder money, my money. If this is not fixed, Verizon shareholders are looking at a dividend cut like AT&T. Money is an important life blood of any company..

  9. Black Rock and all corporations should stay out of politics……

  10. Organizations like Blackrock Are going to fail. They have an evil agenda

  11. They are buying everything, home owners be aware of signs in you neighborhood and along the streets that say will by top dollar, no question asked type. Please Sell to families and people, not some corporate backed entity. Pay attention.

  12. Takes big guts to go up against black rock. Good for you Missouri I hope the rest of America follows

  13. Missouri will get my tourist dollars!👏👏👏🇺🇸

  14. So happy to see they joined Louisiana. Missouri & all these states pulling out of blackrock are doing the right thing

  15. state of Texas did the same thing with their bonds kicked a large banking corporation to the curb for the same or similar reasons. more States need to do this. that money does not belong to the bank.

  20. Thank God, Black Rock had way to much power.

  21. I’m so sick of this “ WOKE “ movement.
    It’s like Narcissism on Steroids.
    It’s total BS.

  22. Dam, I love it when people have balls!!!!!

  23. Why would red states, their employees and citizens fund their cultural enemies?

  24. Putnum sold my kids 529 to Blackrock I pulled it. Blackrock charged huge prices for the care of my kids 529 plan….I did better at a a credit union.

  25. Freeman has cajones. Kudos to this man who understands wokeness is contrary to business.
