This deserves a like on the headline alone.Weed Up, Hoes Down in Whitmer’s Michigan
Critics say Democratic governor's stay-at-home Order is Arbitrary and favors big businesses
Michigan's Democratic governor Gretchen Whitmer is facing bipartisan criticism of a stay-at-home order that shuttered gardening stores but deemed marijuana dispensaries and lottery ticket vendors "essential" to coping with the coronavirus.
Business owners are criticizing Whitmer's executive order, which went into effect April 9, as overly restrictive. While the governor has developed a national profile during the pandemic thanks in part to a feud with President Donald Trump, her critics point to the order's practical inconsistencies. The order allows for the in-person sale of alcohol and lottery tickets, as well as curbside sales of marijuana, but forcibly closes local businesses selling hardware supplies and gardening seeds, which critics argue allow residents to be more self-sufficient. The policy even extended to the inside of grocery and department stores deemed essential, as businesses roped off "nonessential" sections to comply with the governor's order.
The backlash comes in the midst of the governor's semi-public audition for a slot on the Democratic presidential ticket. After a March feud with President Trump, outlets from Politico to NBC News and the New York Times have praised Whitmer's leadership during the pandemic.Whitmer has embraced the national spotlight, making an April appearance on Comedy Central's The Daily Show sporting a "That woman from Michigan" t-shirt, a reference to the March 27 coronavirus briefing in which President Trump used the phrase to refer to her. Since then, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has named Whitmer as a vice presidential contender.Whitmer's critics say the governor is politicizing the pandemic in a bid to secure a spot on the presidential ticket. Dr. Ann Marie Sastry, a small business owner and former engineering professor at the University of Michigan, said fellow business leaders are "looking for more than one-liners."
So you think it was okay for China to mislead the world? Or you just couldn't pass up a chance to take a shot at the Trumps?
It really has nothing to do with Trump. The "experts" at CDC and FDA bungled it, and has been reported by everyone beginning Mar 2. Where've you been?Testing remains THE linchpin for both fighting the virus and reopening the eonomy.
Trump administration bungled that to the nth degree. Just mind boggling how poorly they handled that single most critical aspect of all of this.
A sign of the times. The left would rather side with China than the POTUS. And then they try to justify such ludicrous behavior with "but Trump".more importantly, is it okay for our press to write stories that parrot what the Chinese government says but is completely skeptical about anything the current administration says?
LOL
Student calls for Obama to deliver virtual address to America's Class of 2020 - CNNPolitics
1 damn student. F'n awesome.
The most ridiculous part of this is that CNN wrote a story about it. It's so perfect. Thanks for alerting us Luther!
This ground breaking story has two authors and one contributor from CNN - 3 people to write about what one high school student is thinking.
Where were they when I wanted Ozzy Osbourne at my commencement?
You think it’s just a coincidence the CDC was never permitted to go to Wuhan to help but the WHO was. The WHO sung China praises for handling it. Now we find out it’s all bs. Come on man. On top of that you don’t think Trump was either getting briefed by the WHO directly or by someone at the CDC who was? You are wearing your trump hating blinders too tightly. I would have at least entertained that Trump was kissing China’s ass bc of the trade negotiations. But you couldn’t even come up with that.Are you kidding? Maybe Hannity got it from WHO and then Trump got it from Hannity.
The “Invisible Enemy” is Communism, not Coronavirus

President Donald Trump is fond of referring to the coronavirus as an “invisible enemy”, which is correct, however it is the direct result of a much greater and longer-enduring evil that the civilized world has of yet failed to confront: the Chinese Communist Party.
We know for a fact that the novel Coronavirus/SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 originated in China’s Wuhan province. Despite flailing and bizarre attempts to shift the blame to the U.S. Military, China’s government and its puppet, WHO President Tedros Ghebreyesus, have admitted as much.
