New York City ends all business contracts with the Trump organisation, costing them $17 million dollars a year in lost income. This comes after the violent insurrection at the Capitol when Trump supporters stormed the building, the chaos that ensued left five people dead.
In a speech shortly before the riot, President Trump had egged on the crowd, telling them to march to the Capitol.
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted: “New York City doesn’t do business with insurrectionists. We’re taking steps to TERMINATE agreements with the Trump Organization to operate the Central Park Carousel, Wollman and Lasker skating rinks, and the Ferry Point Golf Course.”
