"who led federal relief efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina has joined a chorus of critics slamming President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner for his take on tapping the national stockpile of medical equipment during the coronavirus crisis."
HEADLINE: "Georgia GOP governor orders several beaches to reopen days after acknowledging he’s woefully uneducated on coronavirus spread." Here's an excellent condemnation from the Atlanta Journal...
"The stupidity and lack of regard of human life on display in Republican-run states is beyond criminal and inhumane. In fact, there are no words to describe this. Because the longer these so-called “leaders” make decisions that are in the best interests of, I don’t know who, the longer it will take to come out of this pandemic that is claiming so many thousands of lives."
HEADLINE: "Brace yourself: This might be Trump’s dirty and cynical plan for Dr. Anthony Fauci."

Many workers say they don’t have enough protective gear to deal with hundreds of customers a day. Dozens of grocery workers have tested positive for the coronavirus in recent weeks."

"Entire families are sheltering at home, often in close quarters. Anxiety about health, education and finances is high. Children aren’t seeing the teachers, counselors and other adults who would normally raise concerns about their well-being. The Covid-19 pandemic has created the conditions for a rise in child abuse that could go unchecked."
This is something that must be dealt with immediately because these children, and women as well, now really have nowhere to go, and some are in a terrifying environment.

HEADLINE: "'They're All Really Afraid': Coronavirus Spreads In Federal Prisons." Okay, some are murderers, some are pedophiles, but all of them are human beings and can't be condemned to death if that is not yet their sentence. There is a rapid spread...

"They're all really afraid," said Arjeane Thompson, whose boyfriend, Brandon Livas, is an inmate at the Oakdale camp. "They feel like they're sitting ducks, really just kind of waiting to get infected because it's getting out of control over there pretty quickly."
