@bskeet when I read it I thought it was strange, as I had the news on all am and never heard a word about it.
I mean it was posted on the appropriate thread… We are on “differentiating fact from opinion on COVID-19.” Might want to add “…and absolute rubbish” after the word opinion.

Not going to lie, I legit laughed out loud at the line about $5000/plate for orphaned lemurs

@FarmerJayhawk Lemurs need parents, too! Family units are the backbone of American Values.

Curious if anyone knows what Trump means by “Liberate Michigan,” “Liberate Virginia, and save your great 2nd amendment. It is under siege!” and “Liberate Minnesota!” I’m trying to keep an open mind but I guess I don’t get the context or message being sent here?

Somewhere between idiotic and revolutionary / treasonous.
-
@approxinfinity I just can’t figure out what it even means. Like, there are only so many definitions and connotations for the word “liberate.” Is he saying those states need to open now? Is he saying they need to remove their governors? It’s just so unclear to me that I was hoping someone who thinks differently than me could give me a hand in figuring it out.
And does Virginia have some amendment undoing the 2nd amendment that I haven’t heard about?
-
He’s talking about the 2nd amendment in Virginia because of the recent gun rally in Richmond, playing to fears of his base that the Democratic state congress and democratic governor are going to take away their guns. Never miss an opportunity to incite your gun-toting base in the middle of a pandemic. You can see where his head is.
When Gov Northam gets shot because some idiot heard something different maybe we can finally acknowledge that Trump is a disaster.

@bskeet Tito’s vodka had to put out a statement telling people their vodka didn’t!
-
@benshawks08 aren’t these the states protesting today or yesterday?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes. That is clearly the connection (along with democratic governors). But I still don’t get how yesterday it’s up to the governors to decide how and when to open their states and today it’s “liberate michigan” or whatever. Unless he means something else, which is what I’m trying to understand. I’m not trying to make a point, just trying to understand. There are so many things I don’t understand and never will, this might just have to get added to the list.
-
Just his states, he’s trying to prove it. SOS!
-
He’s not backing the governors. Again, SOS

I couldn’t agree, Moore!
Stephen Moore on child labor: “I’m a radical on this; I’d get rid of a lot of these child labor laws. I want people starting to work at 11, 12"
Stephen Moore on climate change: “the biggest scam of the last two decades.”
Stephen Moore on women: “Is there no area in life where men can take vacation from women? What’s next? Women invited to bachelor parties? Women in combat? (Oh yeah, they’ve done that already.)"
We’ve got a real winner!

Here’s another article (behind paywall, but just to reiterate my point). If you have kidney issues, please consider that coronavirus can contribute to kidney failure and be extra cautious

You guys that live in Kc, I hear tmrw they are going to protest to open their businesses, wondered what you think. I know cases are still going up, deaths too, still no tests. I guess the judge ruled the churches can go to church tmrw. just can’t understand that when there is an option. My pastor would never do anything to harm us!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 the amount of people that don’t even go to church complaining about it is astronomical.
-
@kjayhawks well they probably don’t won’t them to infect them. Pretty crappy that we are all following the rules to keep our families and friends safe and they could stream their services. Not the God I know!
-
It’s amazing how short our attention spans are. We are lemmings.
-
Bishop Glenn held a church service on March 22 despite warnings about social distancing. During the sermon, he preached about not being afraid of death, telling the congregation, “I firmly believe that God is larger than this dreaded virus,” according to CBS affiliate WTVR
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yep that’s what our church is doing, not that complicated in 2020 to stream live via Facebook or YouTube.
