Gov. DeSantis issues stay-at-home order for entire state of Florida

[kpete]

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Governor Ron DeSantis announced Wednesday afternoon that the state of Florida is being shut down amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Florida now joins more than 30 states that are under a "stay-at-home" order.

The order mandates that Floridians stay home unless they're going out for "essential services or activities." Details will be released later Wednesday.

The order will take effect Thursday at midnight and last 30 days.

4. The Fox news lag is finally showing itself.

The lies can only be defended if they last a short time. They cant lie this long and they are freaking out.

8. I recall someone saying something about fooling all the people some of the time...

Lincoln must have been thinking of the FOX News lag when he said, “You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time." The jig's up, Rupert.

5. Of course, to him, "essential services" means.....

Sunday services at megachurches.

If they are held in a football stadium that is immediately quarantined for a month, with nobody going in or out as soon as the "service" starts, I guess I am OK with that...........

6. Will this apply to the "snowbirds"

from various states who winter in FL? And will the states to which these folks are returning require them to quarantine for 2 or 3 weeks?

7. Most snowbirds do return north in April or May...so...
