DeSantis spoke too soon and opened his state much too fast. Florida is now the one of the global epicenters of this virus and it’s not getting better anytime soon. HERE

Stubborn Castor Perpetuates Tampa’s Racism Reputation
A three-dimensional black and white chess game continues to be played out in Tampa between city officials and the African-American community with no resolution in sight.
As in the board game, the queen, Mayor Jane Castor, is going full throttle to protect the king, Police Chief Bryan Dugan. Only in this instance, the royalty is racist.
The queen is only playing for time, hoping to wear down her opponent until it vanishes. Guess again. The black chess pieces aren’t going away.

Bernie Sanders: Police State
We are in a very dangerous moment in American history.
Last month, as you'll recall, Trump had peaceful protestors outside of the White House in Washington, D.C. viciously attacked by federal agents who wore no identification.
As we speak, in Portland, Oregon, federal agents in combat gear and unmarked vehicles are pulling protesters off the streets and jailing them without charges, despite opposition from local and state officials.
What Trump and his allies are now doing is "normalizing" the use of federal troops to patrol and make arrests of American citizens in communities throughout the country. Today it is Portland, Oregon. Tomorrow, Trump is suggesting it could be New York City, Chicago or Philadelphia. Next, your hometown.
This is what a police state is all about.
Too many Americans fought and died to defend American democracy to let President Trump move us even further in an
authoritarian direction.
