I’m really sick of it

We have Lina Hidalgo, Spanish translator turned county judge because of Beto turnout, making shite up to keep things closed.

I am an internal medicine doctor in one of the largest hospitals in Harris county. We have never have more than 30 patients hospitalized with covid19 (thankfully). Last week, Hidalgo said hospitals were nearing capacity (most hospitals are less than 50%).

She built a mash hospital that could cost up to $60 million that was never going to be used based on any predictions. It will be closed next week without treating a single patient.

There have been 150 deaths since this all started in the Greater Houston area. Things are only going to get better at this point.

Instead of getting things back to normal, what does she do? Makes wearing masks mandatory in public for a MONTH!

I’m sick of all of the lies and disinformation. It is time to get things back open and getting back to normal again. This isn’t New York

And yes, #imad

Frankly, people get the government they deserve.

It's sad but true.

We're living it in Louisiana - at least you baws have a rational guy in the Governor's mansion.

Preach

Houston and Harris County have been plagued by the Beto blue wave that hit in 2018.

Inmates running the asylum.

Dem leaders will do all they can now to spread fear and have their LCD voters blame every illness on the right.

That's the whole point of this.

A mask is a symbol at this point.

Why is this chick setting policy, is she the head of a county task-force or something?

True. I am defenitely paying more attention to county level politics after this.

Holy shite do we have some dipshits running things around here. The fact that a 29 year old hospital translator is the county judge is a symptom of the problem.

This, imho, is a glimpse of what will happen when Texas goes full Democrat.

Your government closed the border to Louisiana...you know, part of the USA.

If only they had closed the border with Mexico first.

None of this is going to matter until people start showing up in mass to LOCAL council/govt meetings and making their demands.

Until then, they’ll all go unchecked and their heads will continue to increase in size with the power given to them by absence.

I didn't think there were 150...if I count deaths in all of Harris, Montgomery, Fort Bend, Brazoria and stretch to Galveston...I get 127.

Buddy of mine who lives there is a pretty conservative dude, but he says he like the mayor. Doesn’t act too much like a Democrat.

Thoughts?

There is no legitimate way for the county govt to compel someone to wear a mask on his or her own private property.
