Florida is a part of the coalition of southern states coordinating to reopen their economies even as they see continuing coronavirus cases and lack the testing capacity some public health experts say is needed to safely reopen.

“We have had a meeting with all the Southeastern governors — Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, and Tennessee,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said on “Fox & Friends” Tuesday. “And we shared a lot of ideas. I think we will be the same page on some stuff.”

DeSantis's communications director Helen Aguirre Ferré tweeted that the governor's office “is working in coalition with regional southeastern state governors ... to safely re-open as well as working regionally within Florida to make sure we thread the needle properly.”

The southern states moving forward with openings as part of the coalition all have Republican governors. Louisiana has a Democratic governor.

Can't wait for the screeching of those in MSM and left who were so supportive and praising of other states who coordinated as a block to limit reopening and go against Trump..

FL's borders are "locked down" to prevent people from certain states from getting into FL; he wants that border lock down shifted further north.

Tonight, we ride!! (I'm, of course, referring to the 19th century grassroots effort against despotic Northern Aggressors, not some neoconfederate white supremacist movement.)

And then can we make it permanent?

Charleston has enough Ohio transplants.

This line is pure propaganda.
Step 1- Move the goal posts without acknowledging it.
Step 2- Lie - Lack of testing capacity my arse - testing sites are closing because no ones coming.

The subtext here is that it is no longer about “flattening the curve”. It is about eradicating the virus. What dumbasses.
