Good. We need a clear negative to develop America’s positive around.

Damn. The teachers union is strong. They really don't want to go back to school this fall.

I mean every school is ready to go back to normal. I guess they will just flip the switch back to online learning.

I fricking hope they do/try....

What are the current death numbers from COVID over the last couple weeks? Real question i dont know.

That being said i would take my chances with COVID over walking in downtown Chicago or Atl at the moment.

they’re planning to make it sound like one of the most solemn in history, real Bush on the night of 9/11 type stuff.

I will lose my shite if they pull this crap. I mean it’s time to throw Edward’s out of the Governors mansion if he allows this state to shut down with restricted movement. There’s no point.

Both the Nasdaq and Dow 30 are green as the Hulk right now...no way they would start the week positive if a national lockdown was imminent IMO.

They can try this but it is dependent on state and local law being willing to enforce it.

States like Florida will tell them to frick off. I figure many municipalities in red areas will do the same.

I have a serious question for yall

If the WH knew they were going to do this, why would they make this statement last week?


quote:

In the meantime, more vaccinations and mask wearing in the areas most impacted by the Delta variant will enable us to avoid the kind of lockdowns, shutdowns, school closures, and disruptions we faced in 2020. Unlike 2020, we have both the scientific knowledge and the tools to prevent the spread of this disease. We are not going back to that.
Direct statement posted on whitehouse.gov just last Weds

We did get a bump in cases however not a proportional bump in deaths relative to last year.

Cases and deaths are already trending down below this most recent bump.

I wonder if Biden will be reminded of this.

"I'm going to shut down the virus, not the country,
"It's his ineptitude that caused the country to have to shut down in large part," = Joe Biden

Beats me.

If you want to look at it from a political lense, by putting out this info, and having the numbers stay up, you can then blame people for not listening to the most trusted man in America:



as he locks the nation down.

My guess is that the info is not accurate.

Like Dan Crenshaw said last week,” the only thing that will stop future power grabs by Dems is mass non-compliance, and I agree.
