The schools were just canceled out here in California, which is way overkill, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) said during an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham. Its possible kids couldve went back to school in two weeks to four weeks but they just canceled the rest of the schools.
Saying he was optimistic about efforts to combat the coronavirus outbreak, the GOP lawmaker indicated that he disagreed with President Donald Trumps decision to extend social distancing guidelines to April 30.
I dont believe we can wait until the end of April, Nunes told Ingraham. I just dont know of any economy thats ever survived where you unplug the entire economy and expect things to go back and be normal.
The Republicans flippant attitude about the pandemic landed him in hot water several weeks ago after he suggested people spend time in pubs and restaurants despite public health officials warnings that doing so would exacerbate the devastating outbreak.

(146,329 posts)at a local dairy when I was in high school. My normal job was delivering milk in the early morning, but I sometimes filled in in the milking barn. I became quite used to the hinder end of cows. As a source of sour-smelling gaseous emanations, they are pretty much unsurpassed.
It put me right off drinking milk, that work did.

Idiot. He's dumber than the cows and a traitor to boot. His time will come, when he's hauled in front of a court and charged w/ high treason. Going behind Congress' back to report to his daddy (trump) on what Congress was doing. No telling what else he's done illegally.

Maybe Death Spiral Devin can tell us how school kids don't transmit the virus and are safe in schools and at home.
