MADD-dy may they all vote too. so you are claiming millions did something that the founders did not do to stop a tax on tea. Again right wingers like you were involved in insighting probably the majority of the criminal acts... one of your racist brothers attacked the MN police department in an attempt to make the BLM look bad.

Numbers heading up—worldwide, US, North Carolina among many other formerly red states. Trump spends more time retweeting deranged conspiracy theories than the hard work of governing. NW slobbers “but Hunter”, ignoring that it was Ivanka that got the sweetheart deal with China. Maybe Steve Schmidt, and the Lindsay Graham of 2026 are right—Trump has destroyed the Republican Party.

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Thursday urged Americans to wear masks to fight the coronavirus, which put him in intensive care for seven days, and warned that the virus is "something to take very seriously."

Christie was one of a number of people with ties to the White House who tested positive for the coronavirus at around the same time as President Donald Trump.

"I believed that when I entered the White House grounds, that I had entered a safe zone, due to the testing that and I and many others underwent every day. I was wrong. I was wrong to not wear a mask at the Amy Coney Barrett announcement and I was wrong not to wear a mask at my multiple debate prep sessions with the President and the rest of the team," Christie said in a statement.

Wisconsin numbers continue to soar, Wisconsin folks continue to not wear masks. Meanwhile, in the blue Bay area:

Quote:
The 10-county Bay Area reported the fewest cases in a single day since late June. San Francisco has seen dramatic drops in cases and hospitalizations, while some spots in the North Bay have seen increases in both over the past two weeks.

The idiot in chief has scorned the wearing of masks—which could have saved tens of thousands of lives.
Quote:
Covid-19 cases in Arizona increased by 151% after the expiration of a statewide stay-at-home order, then plummeted by 75% after city and county leaders were permitted to enforce local mask mandates, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Those results underscore the effectiveness of face coverings in limiting the spread of the virus, though multiple mitigation efforts are necessary to corral the pandemic, researchers wrote.

“A combination of voluntary and enforceable measures is more effective than any single measure,” says the report, authored by officials from the Arizona Department of Health Services, including Dr. Cara Christ, its director.

North Dakota now has the unfortunate distinction of the highest per capita infection rate in the country. South Dakota is not far behind, and Wisconsin cases—and deaths—are rising.

Could this have anything to do with the Sturgis motorcycle rally? Supposedly 450,000 people attended, and while the initial infection rate was relatively small, we know that those who were infected returned to many different places, and aren’t willing to either wear masks or avoid bars and crowds.

Then there are the white nationalists busted in Utah—for selling meth. There seems to be a common thread about the white nationalists that tote guns and support Trump. Members, and wanna-be members of the Aryan brotherhood.

From George Avalos this morning:


Quote:
SUNNYVALE — Two hotels in Silicon Valley have defaulted on their mortgages and face murky futures, fresh evidence that the economic woes unleashed by the coronavirus may widen.

A mortgage on the hotels, one in Sunnyvale and one in Mountain View, has landed in default and could be foreclosed, public documents filed in September in Santa Clara County show.

The hotels that primarily serve the hotel and business markets are taking the biggest hit,” said Alan Reay, president of Irvine-based Atlas Hospitality Group, which tracks the lodging market.

The South Bay hotels whose loans are in default, according to county property records filed in early September:


There are both structural changes that we are only beginning to see, and the lingering effects of Trump incompetence trying to sell people that it is safe to reopen the economy instead of making it safe to reopen the economy.

And from Route 50, demonstrating that COVID rates are soaring in some states:
Quote:

The Dakotas continue to have the most cases per capita, with South Dakota recording 990 cases per 1 million people and North Dakota reporting 921 cases per 1 million, based on seven-day averages.


The other states reporting the largest number of cases per capita were Wisconsin, Montana, and Missouri. Note, though, that this might not reflect the reality on the ground in Missouri, as a database error led to what the state called an “incorrectly inflated” count of cases for October 10. Missouri officials have not yet explained whether any case numbers were actually wrong, or were simply allocated to the wrong date. We will correct our count once the state updates its figures.

US averaging 59,000 cases a day. The man who never had a clue, or a plan, you know the one with the fake hair and the fake tan, says it is going away. Everything about Trump is fake except the anger. But he urged that schools be opened--without a plan. Here's what happened:

Quote:
With infections surging at the University of Michigan, local health officials ordered students to shelter in place for two weeks. “It’s basically a concession that the ill-conceived reopening plan didn’t work,” Nicholas Bagley, a Michigan Law professor tweeted.


And then there is this:

Quote:
Nearly 300,000 more Americans have died this year than in a typical year. The official coronavirus death count is 220,000.
