Florida lifts coronavirus restrictions despite resurgence in cases

Dumb is what dumb does – except in this case people will needlessly die. In his drive to return the state to normalcy, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis lifted limits on indoor seating at restaurants, saying they can operate at 100 per cent in municipalities with no restrictions and that other local governments can’t restrict indoor seating by more than 50 per cent.

The most unhinged Trump conspiracy theory comes from – who else? – QAnon followers | Arwa Mahdawi | Opinion | The Guardian

The grand prize for the most unhinged conspiracy theory goes to (who else?) QAnon followers. One of the many bizarre things these people believe (without any foundation) is that Covid-19 is a hoax designed to deflect attention from a Satan-worshipping pedophile ring operated by Hillary Clinton and liberal elites. Trump, their reasoning goes, is pretending to have Covid-19 as part of a grand plan to arrest Clinton. According to these geniuses Trump communicated his intentions via a tweet on Friday morning where he announced he and Melania had tested positive and declared: “We will get through this TOGETHER!” When you pull apart TOGETHER it spells out TO GET HER. Boom!

Does it really matter what some disturbed QAnon supporters on the internet believe? I’m afraid it does. QAnon isn’t just a niche movement any more; it’s tiptoeing its way into the American mainstream – and Trump’s Twitter feed. It’s also creeping into the halls of power: there are 24 candidates running for Congress in November who have endorsed or promoted QAnon content according to Media Matters, a disinformation watchdog. Only two of these are fringe independents – the other 22 are running as Republicans. Because of the districts these candidates are in, it’s almost inevitable several of them will end up being elected to Congress.

Michigan Supreme Court strikes down governor’s continued state of emergency | TheHill – (Governor has other options)

Still, the Friday ruling leaves Whitmer with an array of options, including possibly issuing a state of emergency under different laws.

“Our decision leaves open many avenues for the Governor and Legislature to work together to address this challenge and we hope that this will take place,” reads a footnote in the ruling.

“Today’s Supreme Court ruling, handed down by a narrow majority of Republican justices, is deeply disappointing, and I vehemently disagree with the court’s interpretation of the Michigan Constitution,” she said in a statement. “Right now, every state and the federal government have some form of declared emergency. With this decision, Michigan will become the sole outlier at a time when the Upper Peninsula is experiencing rates of COVID infection not seen in our state since April.”  Source: Michigan Supreme Court strikes down governor’s continued state of emergency | TheHill

Jewish conservative activist charged for robocalls warning not to vote – The Jerusalem Post

The robocalls falsely warned residents in majority-Black Detroit and urban areas in at least four other states that voting by mail in the Nov. 3 election could subject the voter to arrest, debt collection and forced vaccination, The Associated Press quoted Nessel as saying. She said about 85,000 calls were believed to have been made across the nation.
