Why are we being run by complete and utter numpties? Actually, that's an insult to numpties around the world. Why are our leaders such fucking idiotic wastes of plasma and carbon? Swear to all things holy in this world, I've seen smarter stuff at the bottom of a porta john.
The problem here is that the US has no social programs to support people during a time of crisis. We are a work till you die society and public education is the only day care we have to support this. So until we are ready to accept some level of socialism this is what we have and this is the hill the Trump admin has chosen to die on.
Kanaku Summer Camp in Missouri has 82 kids, counselors and camp workers have tested positive for covid. This is a camp that took huge precautions but also had some failings in adhering to it as it just shows the perils of premature opening of schools. https://people.com/health/missouri-...ronavirus-as-outbreak-raises-safety-concerns/
The argument for opening the schools seems to be (for some folks) that kids are not at serious risk of actually contracting Covid, let alone dying from it. Like every other bit of information we have been given, who knows how accurate this is? But what the current administration willfully ignores is that those little incubators can (and will) go around infecting those of us who are more vulnerable. Which will allow the cycle to perpetuate. So in effect, the older generation is being told to warehouse ourselves at home until a vaccine can be found, unless we want to get very sick at best, or die at worst. Like every other political fallacy, “It’s all about the children”..........At least until the election is over. This administration just keeps doubling (and tripling....and quadroopling) down on criminal stupidity. 135K “winners” and counting.......are we “great again” yet????
Our school district is giving us 3 options, as of today. 1. Back to school with social distance/recommended masks/cleaning and other guidelines 2. Distance learning - provided ipad (for elementary kids), videos of classroom activities a week later, provided materials from the school, and teacher check in via zoom once a week. 3. Home school on your own with no district support. As of today, we are planning to go with option 2.
that hill won't have trump and his kids on it...only trump's re-election chances....and the kids and teachers of public schools. Private schools will go their own way
And send their own kids to public schools. When Jim Jones ordered his cult to give their children poisoned Kool-Aid, most of them did. Will the Trump cult sacrifice their children?
Kellyanne Conway Won’t Say if Trump Will Be Sending Barron Back to School: ‘That’s a Personal Decision’ https://www.mediaite.com/news/kelly...ron-back-to-school-thats-a-personal-decision/ “That’s a personal decision,” Conway said. “I don’t know what Barron’s school has decided and I certainly do not know what the first couple has decided in respect to their teenage son who I believe is entering high school this year.”
It's the biggest, most beautiful, best tsunami. Obama never had a tsunami this big, this beautiful, this bestest. Never.
Anybody think they might do the distance learning like in the spring, but allow the kids to play sports?
... and to no one's surprise, schools in most of CA are not opening on time until cases subside: https://www.latimes.com/california/...de-coronavirus-standard-for-reopening-schools
Biden rolls out school reopening plan amid coronavirus pandemic here is a link to biden's remarks. the differences with the president are easily contrasted. IIRC his wife is a former teacher, and she joins him in the linked video.
How long before Fox News counters with: "Biden, once again, proves that he can not even make himself seem dictatorial at all". ?
It's amazing that this administration won't allow kids to go to school without vaccinations for illness that aren't a major threat, but this administration wants to send kids to school with an extremely serious pandemic and no vaccine. Makes no sense, but neither does trumpy.
