There have been numerous reports about a new wave of COVID-19 compliance dictates from the state ministry of social conformity. Specifically, there are reports of rules about not allowing your family to gather for Thanksgiving, and/or limiting the number of guests; and/or requiring masks to be worn inside; and/or even forcing guests to bring their food.
All of this sounds like abject nonsense; however, there are also reports of local police and law enforcement being empowered to “enforce” the COVID Compliance dictates. However, as with California Governor Gavin Newsom, do not expect the COVID tyrants to adhere to their own dictates. [STORY] Rules are for the proles comrades.
So with all of that said, what is the current state of COVID compliance dictatorship in your state, county, city, town or neighborhood?
What are the rules around you for this holiday season?
There is a good argument to be made that forcing people to stay apart is one outcome of purpose for COVID-19. The enforced non-assembly rules are historically a part of all totalitarian states, and given the severity of the recent election manipulation we can find a good reason for the ruling class to want to avoid talking to each-other.
73 million people voted for President Donald Trump. No amount of manipulation by the ruling class is going to change that. Their effort to destroy populism will not succeed. Even as we are currently blocking the avalanche of their lies, internally there is a growing resolve.
Don’t forget to provide citations to local articles about the rules being proposed or announced by the Ministry of COVID compliance in your area. Despite our current tenuous status, CTH is still assembling the library of truth.
Live your best life.

Mississippians wear masks when they go into establishments; not because any government has mandated it; but because they have good manners. They pay respect to the old and vulnerable, and otherwise they get on with their lives without a fuss—recognizing, unlike Dr. Fauci and other “experts”—that life must go on.
We marvel down here in Mississippi that Governor Cuomo is some sort of a hero—still holding forth with arrogant, disgusting, sanctimonious lectures—instead of being prosecuted for malfeasance.
We are teaching our children.
We think we live in a parallel universe. Blumenthal, Widen, The Bern, Schiff, that moron from Hawaii, many many others—we can’t understand how they ever got elected by even morons.
We treasure the isolation that has come from our bad reputation leftover from the late 1950’s and early 1960’s.
We may not have the courage of William Wallace, but we admire what he stood for, and since human nature doesn’t change, we realize that history repeats itself, and we are basically fighting against the same enemy he did.
William Wallace had it easy. he Was forced into the moment. We have a future not yet decided. I have no doubt that WW courage will pop up , since most of that ancestry populates your area.
Same way here on the Mississippi gulf coast.
I live near Jax Beach, Fl and drive for Door Dash, Grubhub and Uber Eats.
Not once have i worn a Mask and refuse to. If a restaurant worker gives me some lip about it I immediately Unassign the order.
Most people in the 32082 Zip Code are like me.
I don’t understand how Human Beings in States that have Lockdowns don’t hit the streets and tell the Politicians to f uck off.
Whatever, you get the Government you deserve and tolerate…read Solzhenitsyn for context.
However, I have noticed hundreds of new Out-of-State Car License Plates lately.
Make no mistake they are coming, in massive numbers. Everyone in the Northeast and California is trying to get out of Dodge before it all totally collapses. Is that part of the Dem plan? Don’t know… but I hope those who emigrate from the lib enclaves come to realize just why it was they were so compelled to do so.
My state’s governor – wolf of pa – is still a douche bag.
The world is my amusement park. Regardless, I will have fun and enjoy my life.
Russia defectors, said the Dems were easy to own, and not wanted to control as much, because a republican church going pretender was far more valuable to own.
Our party is full of fakes. and moralless men.
I live in California and thanksgiving will be as it has always been for me. Newsome can stick his Covid rules up where the sun doesn’t shine. It is depressing so many are like sheep following a goat up a slaughterhouse chute.
Rarefied air up there that Newsom breathes:

Many people are truly too frightened of Covid to even consider breaking the rules. Of course, if you only listen to lib media fear can be understood. My church-women group (just 8 of us) have been regularly meeting via zoom, and have not physically been together since February. But, it’s Christmas, and we really want to see each other. One member finally found a place we can gather – outside, at a picnic table reserved in advance at the retirement community where she lives. So, we’ll sit outside, six feet apart, and try to have a meaningful celebration. Thanks, Gav.
There has yet to be one covid case proven that could had been prevented by; lockdown, social distancing and mask wearing.
Why is it (I think Nigeria) had only 3-covid cases as of a couple months ago? Nigeria has no lockdown, social distancing or mask wearing.
What is it Covid shows-up on a USA Presidential year? What was so vital Democrats had to insist on mail-in ballots? What is it a candidate draws 10’s of thousands and loses to a candidate who is lucky to draw a couple hundred? Biden even said himself he didn’t need voters. Biden also said, he had the most organized voter fraud ever.
But yes fear is a great motivator and look how easy it has been to get people to comply rather than resist. Fear has Americans like sheep following evil goats up slaughterhouse chutes.
The spikes are B.S. – this is about communism. I think Trump forced them to ejaculate their scheme prematurely and it will be an epic fail.

We will be doing just what we’ve done for the past 6 years. One son and his family will come here while the other son and family go to his wife’s mother’s house. Then on Friday, we all get together at our house for leftovers, all used in ever ingenious ways. There will be 6-8 adults and 5 kids, all playing, drinking and eating to excess. There will likely be an obligatory nap after the noontime meal when most of us pass-out in a food coma. Good times! Just like every other year. All are healthy and looking forward to the weekend.
Same here, Mo. Same here…
One county north of Seattle. I will be working remotely. My family members both here in WA and in TX refuse to see me. They are totally into C19, to the point of their interest being ghoulish. At first I pitied them wearing masks outside, and inside vehicles.
Forget pity. Now I’m just a pi&&ed off old lady.
Mine don’t refuse to see me…yet. They certainly are into masks. I am going to travel to #1 son’s home. But I am still a really pi$$ed off old lady, too. I had to wear a mask to go to the bathroom in a nieces’ home where we had an outside dinner after I and my sons flew 1,000 thousand miles to bury my Mother.
God Bless you annieoakley !!!
So truly sorry, fionnagh. I hope your relatives come to realize that life is transient, it is the living of it (and of the next one) that is important. The truth will come out and hopefully many closed eyes will be opened.
Our county in California has stated they will leave all compliance to Gov. NewStalin’s “dictates from the dictator” up to the individual.
Tennesse here, our governor has not mandated masks or limited holiday gatherings, common sense, as it should be. No government mandates. I pray for my fellow countrymen/women/children who suffer under these ridiculous dictators in America who wish not only to suppress but control every move. May our Lord of love have mercy on each and every one of us. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
I may be working from home soon. i pitched a fit Tuesday about having to wear a mask IN MY OWN OFFICE with my door shut. People are getting stupid with this.
We are having 3 families with 4 children at our house for Thanksgiving. I’m thanking God for the air we breathe. #nomasks #nothankyou
That’s the part that ticks me off too – the getting stupider about it. I suppose that brainwashing works that way, a little and a little and pretty soon we’re all wearing hazmat suits and sweating off those extra pounds.
I used to think everyone in the middle ages believed in bloodletting too.
But now I bet there were some who said, “No, you’re not doing that to me!”
I’m in the DPRM {Democratic People’s Republic of Maryland).
Governor Hogan (aka Lockdown Larry) has restaurants limited to 50% capacity, no stadium events or horse racing, gatherings limited to 10 in Baltimore city and three counties south and southwest of the city. My county isn’t yet affected.
The local Pravda (Baltimore Sun) says covid cases are surging with the second highest number of cases occurring in one day recently since the entire plandemic began. They’re reporting very high numbers and successfully scaring people but of course neither my wife nor I pay any attention to the hype. We are having family over for a traditional TG dinner next Thursday. Picking up a couple of 10 lb freshly killed ground raised free range organic antibiotic free bone in Turkey breasts from a local farm this Friday. That’ll cost me a C-note.
I call him No Neck Hogan. He could be the narrator guy in the original Rock Horror Picture Show. Sorry/not sorry.
I escaped from DPRM back in 2018. I started working remotely in 2016 so it was not a big deal. I’ve since retired and am so happy I don’t have to deal with one of my old “Karen” co-workers now. Whew!
“No Neck Hogan” ? ? ?
Good for you, GB! I wish you an enjoyable and carefree Thanksgiving. That Gov of yours was a Republican, I thought (of the same variety as DeWine, Abbott, Kemp, apparently). I just can’t wait for the MAGA Party, or the Trump Party, to get going so we can clean house of these fakes.
Simply, I’m afraid of covid…so I’m staying home. Between the Wife and me, we have most of the underlying, bad stuff.
Stay safe!
That makes total sense but YOU are the one making the decision for yourselves, not the government. What a concept!!!
I am high risk too. So I take Elderberry and Zinc supplements, vitamin D3 and Vitamin C, baby aspirin.. and I have Quercetin and Zinc tablets on the side, in case I feel sick. I therefore feel I can go about the business of living.
Statistically speaking, those who get early intervention have better outcomes. So I take matters into my own hands to boost my immune system and keep the (potential) viral load down.
Taking charge of my own health empowers me to enjoy spending time with my loved ones.
I truly feel sorry for people who don’t feel comfortable to live their best lives. It is a whole year wasted that they won’t get back. This must be a terrible ordeal for those who live alone.
And vitamin B12.
Northern Vermont here, mask mandate. I never wear one but 99% of the people do.
I mourn for my fellow citizens.
Sheeple.
DigDoug Here is Az according to rumors is apparently plotting a new state shutdown for a covid epidemic that exists only in media hype. At the moment there are just the occasion Karens around screaming about masks.
Heard it from a friend who, heard it from a friend who. . alot of AZ’s covid hospital beds are occupied by patients from New Mexico and across the border. No official references.
In N.C. Cooper says the indoor mass gathering reduction to 10 people is geared to Thanksgiving and he hopes families will opt to celebrate virtually. Yes, he is taking it upon himself to tell us what we can do in our homes and he is openly stating that is the focus of the change.
Minnesota here. Gov. Walz just put the most draconian orders in place to date. The worst of which, you cannot have anyone other than family in your home, you you’ll get 90 days in jail. We will ignore it, however.
Just saw that. No indoor dining gym and fitness centers closed. People in my little town in Minnesota wear masks even driving their cars….alone. I don’t wear a mask even though
my age and health conditions suggest I should. People are terrified and most think masks will protect them. Sad to see.
Gee, Walz is sure trying to stick it to people who don’t have family around and want to spend Thanksgiving w/ friends.
Glad you’re ignoring that one.
Dayum. That is taking MEAN and heartless to the next level.
That IS mean. I guess the Thanksgiving meals for the homeless are prohibited, too.
Freaking incredible! Isn’t there anyone in that state with the cajones to file suit against the dictator? Maybe someone in the Republican Party? Oh, sorry, forgot for a moment they are stupid and spineless. This is absolutely disgraceful and should not be allowed to stand!
You will need to be arrested for not complying before you have “standing” to file a suit in court against these laws. They know that so most jurisdictions are trying very hard not to have that happen. Thus a lot of noise is made without any enforcement action following.

I am an officer in American Legion Son’s Squadron 291 in Newport Beach. One of our fundraisers is the Newport Beach Boat Parade where we have really wonderful out door fundraising program where we sell tables and a wonderful meal to see the parade. We have fundraised in the past between $15K and $30K for veterans and their families who need assistance. It is truly one of the most satisfying groups I have ever honored to be in and support. With all that has gone on this is now our largest fundraiser.
–Today the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce who sponsors the parade, canceled it. @govNewsom can pound sand.

The mask Nazis came through town a few days ago… threatening businesses with not only fines, but negative reviews.
Our county sheriff ran them out of the county. Told them he wasn’t enforcing the governor’s mask mandates and neither would they.
Murica baby!
We are following our gov. (CA. ) example, lots of family, good food, good wine, hugs all around. No fat bill at the end paid, no doubt, by tax payers, but hey, we are fine with our piece of the American pie….

Governor Abbott, Texas, has finally taken a stand against lockdowns. My wife and I go to the stores sans face diapers. No one says a word to us. The store personnel actually seem more friendly towards us. Maybe they are just glad to see a human smiling face every now and then. Whenever I see other shoppers, without masks, I always make a comment that it is nice to see another face!
God Bless Gov. Abbott and God Bless Texas

I have no idea what edicts have been issued for my area.
I don’t watch TV or listen to the radio. I don’t take a newspaper. I have a flip phone which has been sitting on the catch-all sideboard at the entry from the garage for the last 6 months** so if they are sending texts to inform the masses it’s not going to reach me.
I get my news from the TreeHouse. If His Royal Governorness really wants me to know, he can send a 1st class letter to my house.
I’ve been doing whatever I’ve normally done since I retired in 2016.
So, I dunno what my governor is up to.
**If the Powers That Be (PTB) are tracking people via their phones, then as far the PTB are concerned, I haven’t left the house in 6 months.?
Your habits sound like mine, H.R. I’m blissfully unaware of any “news” from any source other than CTH.
Here in northern California, we are going the Turkey Funeral route. We are allowed up to 30 people for a funeral, so that covers most of what we may do.

Finally. Texas governor today said no more state lock down mandates.
Maybe Gov Abbott learned something from the leader of the pride.
TRUMP WON and everybody knows it.
Gov. Ducey here in AZ:
“ I think the steps that we’ve put in place, the participation that we have, has got the maximum amount of compliance with Arizonans wearing a mask,” Ducey said. “In addition, it’s nearly impossible to participate in our economy anywhere without wearing a mask.”
Our daughter and her family are coming this weekend from Orange County CA to stay till after Thanksgiving.
Our son and his family will come for Christmas from Baltimore.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Dewine of Ohio, Justice of West Virginia, and Wolf of Pennsylvania are all in on the Covid hoax. Below are the links to the adjusted guidelines. They’ve gone off the deep end. Big time. Ohio now has 10PM curfews. PA mask mandates inside your home. WV business required to police the mask mandate. It’s insane. Over the top highly illegal. It’s too bad a lawyer couldn’t create a lawsuit template that we could use to sue these power hungry governors. Everyone could download the template and file a lawsuit. As illegal as these orders are, you would think you could sue the governor himself/herself as working outside his/her legal authority. Imagine 15 million lawsuits across the U.S.

I am not kidding at all about this but what if I go around self identifying as a 9 year old kid? If someone can self identify as an attack helicopter or if a man can self identify as a woman then why can’t you accept that I’m 9 even though I’m 50?

Family is heading to Carmel for about 3 days to be with another family and we will share good food, laughter and stories and sing very loud with joy! No masks…lots of hugs…and good wine. Going to pretend that we’re at the French Laundry Restaurant.
My sweet momma, who is with my Lord, always told me, fear and worry are from the devil. Trust and faith are from God. That is how I choose to live my life. No ONE will steal my joy!
I agree with momma. I always say that fear is the absence of God. When we accept Him as our Savior, what do we have to fear? God’s will be done.
On Friday, Montana mandates require 50% capacity in restaurants, bars, breweries, distilleries and casinos. Closing time is now 10 pm for these establishments. Tables must be limited to six people with six feet between groups… Public gatherings and events are limited to 25 people where it’s not possible to practice social distancing OR where social distancing isn’t being practiced. There is a mask or face covering mandate if counties have 4 or more active CASES and masks must be warn in ALL indoor spaces open to the public by persons aged 5 or older.
For the last month the northern native communities have been locked down and residents are only allowed out of the communities on two days of the week and only two persons may travel in a vehicle.
Two weeks ago Montana Health sought court approval for temporary restraining orders against several businesses that weren’t complying with the mask mandates….
Rural businesses are closing right and left and the soup kitchens and the church & community programs are stretched to the maximum…..People are getting very angry.
The ghost of bullock lives on. Any plans from Gianforte?
BTW, which businesses got the restraining orders?
As for Gianforte, he’s an unknown, but all indicators are that he is a Republican in Name Only, so I’m not holding out any hope that he will be any better than Bullock….
Business were the Remington Bar & Casino in Kalispell, Your Lucky Turn Tavern in Bigfork, Ferndale Market in Bigfork, & Sykes Diner & Mercantile in Kalispell….
I was politically connected in MT, and met with Greg several times, but I left during his first term in congress so I wasnt on top of his voting record. He was VERY supportive of home schooling, and created the Petra Academy in Bozeman. It was common for him to write checks to parents at their request, so they could send their kids to private and parochial schools.
Matt Rosendale has an outstanding conservative voting record in the MT state house, and is a fighter. I wish we had someone like him here in WY.
jus…thank you for you feedback on Greg and
yes, I am excited about Rosendale’s term
“There is a good argument to be made that forcing people to stay apart is one outcome of purpose for COVID-19.” The statement has merit, however, I believe the true reason for the lock downs is to keep us from talking about the STOLEN ELECTION until Sleepy Joe is inaugurated. They everything will go back to normal. s/
No way. Sleepy Joe aka Jill Biden will enact a National Mask Mandate to extend forever. You will never again step outside your home without the mask. It will be like a muslim woman who was beaten to death for stepping on her front step to scrub it without all the stuff she is required to wear. Kamala, pelosy, and Jill will be exempt.
That’s right….he did mention that during his so-called campaign.
Perhaps Camel-UH will say things are back to normal after she takes over in March!
Well, good thing that PDJT is going to win, then, because nothing the two of you are predicting sounds like fun.

Or fired from their jobs!
They’ve been silenced by the MSM.
If the MSM was about reporting facts, what the Politicians say wouldn’t matter. It would just be “another voice”.
It’s the MSM that’s at fault here.
Mark – makes me so damn mad. I just sent it to all my family members. Thank you!
I don’t know anybody who died from it, and I only know one person who had it. This whole thing was started just to take Trump down. I am always amazed how you can have a hundred or so people in a grocery store or a big box store and that is ok. And the Publix I go to in Florida, I have never heard of any employee getting the Chinese Flu.
Low country South Carolina here, about 20 miles west of Charleston. Larger local municipalities and some counties have mask ordinances but mine does not. The ordinances have been lightened up recently and masks are only required in grocery stores, pharmacies, and government buildings in my town although Charleston requires them everywhere, including outside. I haven’t been there since last fall. Most people wear masks. I’ve done so 5 times, all in the last month (twice at David’s Bridal to get my mother of the bride dress shortened, once in the lobby of the hotel where my daughter’s in-laws were staying and twice in Aldi’s this week). I don’t foresee a need to wear it again until at least January because I now have all the food and toiletries we need until mid-January and then I’ll probably do Walmart curbside pickup so no mask. We have no statewide restrictions on the size of gatherings but the state health department is recommending we follow the CDC guidelines. Our Thanksgiving dinner will be just 3 of us (my daughter, son-in-law, and myself) and we are all living together anyway. My sister is hosting Christmas and that will be bigger but her husband is immuno-compromised so I’m not sure if I’m going to go – I don’t want to be the one to get him sick with anything, including the China Virus.
My daughter got married last Friday night. They rented an Air BnB before that company said no parties for future reservations. It is on a tidal river and had a VERY large outside space. Fortunately the rain from Eta was done Thursday night so the weather was perfect. There were about 38 people total under a 20 x 40 canopy with the tables nicely spread out. Maryland tightened their restrictions last Wednesday requiring quantine if you travel to a state with a 10% or more positivity rate, which SC has, mostly up in the northwest of the state, near Charlotte, so one of the bridesmaids and the friend who was going to officiate did not attend (they can’t afford to not work for multiple days until they test negative). The groom’s family came from NY and Maryland and they were definitely mask wearers although as the night and weekend wore on, they wore them less and less. No one said anything about masks, at least not that I heard.
Some kids in my county attend school in person, others do remote. Families choose their option at the beginning of the school year.
I noticed that Aldi was limiting cans of pumpkin, pumpkin pie filling, and evaporated milk to two each while toilet paper and paper towels are one package each.
Finally, cases in SC have been over 1,000 a day for 8 or 10 days this month but deaths are not going up as much. One day we had 2, another had 24, then the next had around 10. I stay home most of the time, mainly because most of the festivals, etc., have been canceled. However, the Christmas Parade, which gets thousands of attendees, is still on. Unfortunately, the parade participants aren’t asked to thrown out candy this year – harumph! The tree lighting is set for December 1 and Third Thursdays (food trucks, various vendors, and local organizations all have outside booths and stores stay open later) started up again in October.
Sorry this was so long!!!!!
“… to get my mother of the bride dress shortened …”

Lol! I would have preferred to wear jeans but the wedding was more “elegant, sophisticated country” so yes, I gussied up for it.

New color coded covid alert system put in place by governor. He’s copying California.
He will punish counties by decree. Expect lockdown within 2 weeks. Hope i’m wrong.

Care to share the brand of toilet paper you are considering for your portfolio? I am looking to diversify myself. Thanks in advance. :):):)

Another unconstitutional lock down in Michigan. No indoor dining or drinking, bars and restaurants closed again. The MIGOP leadership is worthless and refuses to move on impeachment of the Governor that was submitted today. Restaurant Association is suing the MI Health Department for their orders. The Indian Casinos are the only ones remaining open this time against the Governor’s orders. Private casinos in Detroit remain closed.
Covid Compliant People’s Republic of NY Gulag- disgusting thug Killer Cuomo has decreed that we are not allowed to celebrate Thanksgiving with more than 10 people.
He wants the police Stasi to enforce his illegal orders. Several sheriffs in the Free part of NY have said they will not be enforcing but who knows what will happen in enemy territory sectors.
NYC is on an uncontrollable death spiral thanks to the two ass clowns. I am sure that the Commies who live there will do as they’re told.
My family will not comply, we will celebrate as we always do. Plenty of food, friends, family and fellowship. F@#$ Killer Cuomo and his goons. May they rot in hell.
I think they said in some western gulags of NYS, we’re going to Agent Orange or something like that…………
Regarding Oregon. Buried in this MSN article is a hidden truth. “Despite an increase in both cases and hospitalizations, there has been no consistent surge in the fatality rate, which fluctuates between four and 14 deaths daily, as it has done for the past three months.” NO surge in the fatality rate.

The seasonal flu could could be crafted into the same exact horror narrative as COVID, with the same number of deaths as a bottom line.
It has much more to do with social engineering than it does with fighting a virus
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.- C. S. Lewis
This is a report about Clark County, Nevada (the Las Vegas area), which, thankfully we don’t live in; but apparently there is now a phone app where Karen’s can report directly to the sheriff’s office covid restriction violations and follow along to see the results of their reporting!

In our county, Washoe (Reno area), we are waiting to hear from the Governor, who currently has covid, if he is going to shut down businesses again. Right now stores are limited,, depending on size, to either 50 or 250 at a time (50 for the mom and pop stores, 250 for the big box ones).

I have a friend who works as a critical care nurse at the major hospital here in Berserkeley CA and, all the hype about a spike notwithstanding she has not a single WuFlu patient currently on her floor. Zero. Zip. Nada. . Almost all of the WuFlu patients she’s treated during the pandemic are Latino, most overweight and diabetic.
I see very few unmasked people walking around outside. Even walking alone. I never wear a mask outside and on only two occasions has anyone given me trouble about it. Both older white men btw.
I’m the only one not wearing one while waiting in line to get into a grocery store — I wait til almost the last minute — and no one bothers me.
I also do not wear one until just before I go into a store that mandates them (their store – their choice). When they do say something, I start coughing and hacking uncontrollably and laugh my butt off when they all start scattering. The devil made me do it.
I have close family members accusing me of being a bad citizen and a bad Christian for not wearing a mask, even though I have a medical exemption. They are refusing to gather with anyone, let alone groups of ten or less. They have swallowed the lies coming from the mainstream media hook, line, and sinker. We don’t need government mandates–we are quarantining ourselves!
Can it be any coincidence that these so-called spikes are occurring during religious holidays? First Easter was canceled, now Thanksgiving and Christmas. Leftists are using this scamdemic to remake the world in their image: cold, lifeless, and joyless.
“cold, lifeless, and joyless” and Godless. That’s what they want.
In Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer through the MDHHS has mandated a three week pause. Michigan bars and restaurants closed for indoor dining. High schools and colleges only remote learning. No organized sports. Thanksgiving restrictions to household with no more than 10 people.
Finally, the Michigan restaurant Association has filed a lawsuit against the state health director to block the ban on dine in service. I can only say it’s about time. Hope that they are successful. And other lawsuits of various kinds follow.
As for my family, we’re traveling to Virginia for Thanksgiving with other family members. Plan to have a good time in grateful celebration of life and living, liberty, truth and happiness.
Northern WY here. Unelected ‘health” bureaucrats have issued an order requiring masks in public venues until Dec 4th (I posted the order here this morning). Then our gov. gordon says later that this isnt about face masks, but about having a good Thanksgiving, happy Christmas, good business, and getting the infection rate down. Why do I have a feeling this will extend beyond Christmas like his restrictions over the summer?
All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war [Endless “War on Terror” and now Endless “War on China WhoFlu”] is the surest and the shortest means to accomplish it. This is the first axiom of the science.

From my local southern Illinois news station:
”
SPRINGFIELD (WSIL) — Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says more restrictions are needed to the spread of COVID-19 across the state. He says these steps could save thousands of lives.
This latest round of mitigations aims to limit gatherings and encourages residents to stay home as much as possible and follow proper safety measures when out in public. The mitigations carefully balance the paramount goal of saving lives while preserving the option for in-person learning for children and protecting as much of the economy as possible from the continued impacts of the virus.
You can read the Tier 3 mitigations here.
The Tier 3 resurgence mitigations will take effect statewide at 12:01 am on Friday, November 20, 2020.
“To stop this spread and preserve some semblance of the holidays, all of us need to do more than just wear our masks now – though masks are mandatory throughout the state. The simple fact is that COVID-19 is spreading so quickly and so widely, and our hospitals are beginning to experience real strain and at the current infection rate they will be overwhelmed. So whenever possible, we need you to stay home,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “I’m hopeful that by limiting our in-person interactions, we will succeed at avoiding a stay at home order like what we had in the spring – when the choice between saving lives and saving livelihoods was even more stark. Tier 3 may allow us to do both. Like in other states like Michigan and California and Washington, it’s our best effort to avoid a stay-at-home order and save lives.”
Gov. Pritzker says this is “not a stay at home order.” But says the mitigations are the best way to slow the spread and avoid one.
“There is no denying that the state is headed in the wrong direction with increased cases, hospitalizations, and deaths,” said IDPH Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike. “There also is no denying that reducing the opportunities for the virus to spread can reverse our direction. This includes staying home as much as possible, wearing a mask and keeping social distance when we do have to go out, and not gathering with people outside our households. Until a vaccine is widely available and people understand the importance of being vaccinated, we must continue to take preventive actions to stop the transmission of the virus. Right now, our preventive actions are the best way to prevent new cases, hospitalizations, and deaths.”
According to a release from the Governor’s Office:
While this latest round of mitigations does not include a stay at home order, if the mitigations are not adhered to and cases continue to rise in the weeks ahead, another order may be required. For all regions, additional mitigation measures taking effect Friday, November 20th include guidance for the following settings and industries:
Retail
Personal Care Services
Health and Fitness Centers
Hotels
Manufacturing
Bars and Restaurants
Meetings and Social Events
Offices
Organized Group Recreational Activities
Indoor Recreation, Theater, Cultural Institutions
As they have since the start of COVID-19, grocery stores across the state will remain open and available. Child care facilities may continue to operate subject to guidelines from the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. School districts and officials should continue to follow the extensive guidance released by the Illinois State Board of Education in August to make decisions related to in-person and remote learning at the local level.
The Illinois High School Association issued a statement after the governor’s comments today.
IHSA Executive Director Craig Anderson:
“The Illinois High School Association (IHSA) recognizes that today’s announcement by Governor Pritzker will temporarily pause the IHSA’s winter sports season. We remain optimistic that these new mitigations, coupled with the emergence of a vaccine, will aid in creating participation opportunities in the New Year for IHSA student-athletes in winter, spring, and summer sports. The IHSA Board of Directors will meet as scheduled on November 19, 2020, to continue plotting out potential paths for IHSA sport and activity participation through the remainder of the school year. Although representatives from the Governor’s office and the Illinois Department of Public Health will be unable to attend the meeting, today’s updated guidance from Governor Pritzker will aid the Board’s decision-making. We have asked Deputy Governor Ruiz and Dr. Ezike to engage with us in the near future, so that we can collaborate on developing a plan to safely conduct IHSA sports and activities as soon as possible. IHSA schools have been exemplary in adhering to state regulations throughout this pandemic and we hope that non-school programs will hold themselves to the same standard as we all put the long-term health and safety of our fellow citizens ahead of short-term athletic competition.”

A list of cases & deaths in Southern Illinois:
https://wsiltv.com/2020/11/18/more-than-100-cases-of-covid-19-reported-in-franklin-and-williamson-counties/
I live in Franklin Co. My son attends a Christian homeschool Co-op (Abeka). 3 kids tested positive recently. Did their 14 day quarantine & are back. No one wears a mask, except going in or coming out of building, to keep the wolves at bay ? Everyone involved at school think all this madness is about Control & won’t be participating in it. I love my kid’s school!
Western NC here. I don’t know what Cooper has dictated and I don’t care. Happy Thanksgiving y’all.
And same to y’all. You will be mentioned in our family toast for a Thanksgiving blessing.
North Alabama here. Our governor still has a mask mandate but came out today saying no shutdowns.
My daughters school is closed for 2 weeks (other schools in the district are still open). The entire high school band was quarantined. 7 students tested positive along with a couple of teachers. A few days later even after getting subs from other districts they didn’t have enough teachers to continue so its google classroom.
Central west coast Florida. Never have worn a mask. Only two “Karens” have approached me (male, I might add) and I find they run away when I tell them I’m a chicken farmer and they wouldn’t get within a hundred yards of a commercial chicken operation with their mask and gloves. Worthless!!
Look up chicken biosecurity. Nothing political. The facts are there. Germs are all over us.
You don’t have to be a brain surgeon to figure this out. When you can’t go to church but you can go to the liquor store. Well?
I worry more about the horse kicking me or the rooster attacking! Enjoy your holidays
May God bless us all.
I agree that shutdowns are draconian and entirely unnecessary. But the reason they keep the liquor stores open is to avoid a bunch of detoxing alcoholics crowding the ICU’s. Gotta keep those beds available for China flu patients. /s
Maybe if the alcoholics found God’s house as easily as an open liquor store, they could kick their addiction.
Southern WV here. So called good friend of President Trump, Grubernor “Big Jim” (Obstruction of) Justice last Friday issue another updated mask hysteria unconstitutional mandate that requires everyone to wear a mask while in indoor public places regardless of “social distancing”. According to State Law he nor the Legislator can issue a State of Emergency for more than 30- days. His mandate has been in effect for 7 months in violation of the WV Constitution and law.
The Democrat turned RINO Grubernor threatened businesses with a loss of licenses if they do not enforce his “law”. He also had the General of the National Guard make a statement for intimidation purposes. He says if a store or business ask you to leave for not wearing a (slave) mask and you refuse, they can call the police and have you charged with trespassing or “Obstruction of Justice”.
Obstruction of a tyrant named Justice, who rode President Trumps coattails to reelection. The cold anger is growing, but the sheeple are many. https://wvmetronews.com/2020/11/13/justice-announces-heightened-mask-requirements-extended-thanksgiving-break-delayed-winter-sports/
“Big Jim” is getting push back. https://wvmetronews.com/2020/11/16/justice-fires-back-at-criticism-over-enhanced-mask-mandate/
And no surprise, Joe Manchin Cronies are advising “Big Jim” https://wvmetronews.com/2020/11/15/w-va-super-lobbyist-puccio-crosses-political-streams-as-adviser-to-democrat-manchin-republican-justice/
Well that is the latest from West Virginia. I guess the state motto “Mountaineers are Always Free” has been suspended by China Virus tyrants. In conclusion, Sic Semper Tyrannis! WHAT EVER IT TAKES.
Starting Friday, our Governor moves the state back a level. He really wants to shut us down like Chicago, but realizes he is already being ignored. Stores have limited capacity 50% for drug and grocery and 25% for all other stores. No indoor dining, but many suburbs are not enforcing as they know more will go out of business. No group classes at gyms, wear mask while working out. Still won’t no if traveling out of state for Thanksgiving yet, depends on the hosting side of the family and their comfort level. Please pray for our President and his team of attorneys to prevail so we may all celebrate a Merry Christmas.
I would imagine Satan, Hitler and Stalin were doing an awful lot of giggling in Hell as they made up and passed on their plans to torment the people to these Democrat governors in Ca, PA, Mi and the others. In fact, I doubt they have been able to stopd giggling yet.
OffCourseNation! THAT IS RIGHT !!!
So many of these Demon followers think they are going to be joining a party of good fellows that care and love them, when just the opposite is true !! All they’re gonna get it
eternal hatred, torture and despair unleashed upon them !!!
Oh look, more affidavits.
MI Republicans rescind the the certification and stand their ground.
