Prisoners moved from Chino to San Quentin. A prison guard, his daughter and her friend. And a small softball friendly. Moreover, healthy people are getting very sick. Sick enough to swamp hospitals in Miami, NYC, Houston, Phoenix and I suspect most of them have parents, many of whom are quite a bit more vulnerable. The patchwork application of tactics without coordination is failing. And softball is a microcosm of this failure.

Amen to that brother! That's why we need a NATIONAL STRATEGY to attack this virus. Piecemeal efforts by incompetent governors, like in Florida, Texas, Arizona and Georgia is only prolonging the crisis. Until these idiots pull their heads out of their collective asses, and as long as Trump is in the White House, this virus will be with us.
People were sad that the graduating class of 2020 didn't get to have a senior prom or commencement ceremony. That will also be the case for the classes of 2021, 2022 and maybe 2023 if Donald Trump is reelected to office. Denial is NO way to tackle ANY kind of problem.
It's really up to you as to what kind of America you want your children to grow up in. It didn't have to be this way. Competent government matters. President Obama proved that during the Ebola pandemic of 2014. Obama knew we had to fight the virus over there, so we didn't have to fight it over here. Sound familiar?
A lot of uninformed and ignorant people often refer to the "Deep State" because they heard it on Fox News, but they don't really know what it means. Allow me to enlighten you. The "Deep State" is what allows Americans to go to bed at night, knowing that when they wake up in the morning, it will be in a country where life is still worth living. THAT is the job of the "Deep State". The "Deep State" is what allowed America to become the leader of the free world. Sadly, Trump has been working diligently to dismantle it. That's why we are where we are today.
