Billionaire restaurant magnate and NBA team owner Tillman Fertitta bragged to Brian Kilmeade that he furloughed 45,000 employees to game the unemployment system.
By Karoli Kuns
Tilman Fertitta owns the Houston Rockets, Landry's restaurant chain, Golden Nugget casinos and more. He's estimated to be worth $4.8 billion by Forbes. In short, he's got more money than any one person should have, and 45,000 workers depending upon him for their paycheck.
Or, at least he DID have 45,000 workers until he laid them off and then went on Laura Ingraham's show to brag about it.
Brian Kilmeade, acting as Ingraham's substitute, offered him some sympathy for having all those employees to worry about. He needn't have bothered.
“I’m holding up, I’m holding up pretty damn good,” Fertitta said cheerfully. “But I’ve got 45,000 employees out there that we’ve had to furlough that is so tremendously unfortunate, that we have to get back to work as soon as we can. These unemployment numbers of 16 million, and there’s no telling what it’s going to be next week. That’s what’s so sad about this whole crisis.”
