9/1/2020 Florida Gov. DeSantis: We Will Never Do Any of These Lockdowns Again
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) promised Floridians during Monday’s press briefing “we will never do any of these lockdowns again.”
“We will never do any of these lockdowns again, and I hear people say they’ll shut down the country, and honestly I cringe,” DeSantis said during the briefing in Central Florida:
The peak of the pandemic is now behind the Sunshine State, the governor said, explaining the number of positive coronavirus patients hospitalized is “down nearly 60 percent statewide from our July peak.”
“We gained jobs, 74,000, I think, private-sector jobs in July. Just imagine if we had shut down the state, we would have lost another 3- 400,000 jobs. And so I think that we understand what we need to do,” DeSantis said, pointing to the places with the most “draconian” lockdowns, like Peru, as a contrast.
“Military enforced since March. They have the highest per capita mortality in the world from COVID. And at best, what the lockdown will do is delay. It does not reduce the ultimate mortality. […] it creates a lot of other problems with mortality that a lot of people don’t necessarily focus on,” he added.
DeSantis came under fire early for refusing to implement a stringent statewide lockdown order. While he eventually issued a “stay at home” order, his overall approach largely relied on localities to implement restrictions tailored to their communities. Even as pressure mounted for DeSantis to take further statewide action, like implementing a statewide mask mandate, he refused.
Florida reported 623,471 cumulative cases of the Chinese coronavirus and 11,187 resident fatalities as of Tuesday morning. Hospital bed availability stood at over 25 percent statewide as of Tuesday morning as well.

U.S. issues sweeping new travel warning for China, Hong Kong
(TAIWAN NEWS) – The U.S. on Tuesday issued a sweeping new advisory warning against travel to mainland China and Hong Kong, citing the risk of "arbitrary detention" and "arbitrary enforcement of local laws."
The advisory is likely to heighten tensions between the sides that have spiked since Beijing's imposition on Hong Kong of a strict new national security law in June that has already been met with a series of U.S. punitive actions.
The new advisory warned U.S. citizens that China imposes "arbitrary detention and exit bans" to compel cooperation with investigations, pressure family members to return to China from abroad, influence civil disputes and "gain bargaining leverage over foreign governments."

Trump is a LIAR!!!
For those Trump Idiots who believe he speaks truth:
A new study out of Cornell found that Trump is the "single largest" transmitter of misinformation surrounding COVID-19, touting false "miracle cures" and giving credence to dubious claims about the origins of the virus.
Get orange man out of office into prison.
