Ohio & Illinois Close Down All Bars And Restaurants Beginning On Sunday Night (Details)
The hysteria is only getting worse…
On Saturday evening, both Israel and France shut down movie theaters, restaurants, and even more establishments in light of the coronavirus. Italy has already been on lockdown for a handful of days, at this point. Hoboken, New Jersey even implemented a 10pm curfew for residents.
Now, even more hysteria is creeping into America. The Democrat governor of Illinois and the Republican governor of Ohio have decided to close all bars and restaurants.
There’s little doubt more states will soon follow.

Establishments can stay open for carry-out and delivery. What we can't have is people congregating and seated. #COVID19 #COVID19OhioReady pic.twitter.com/3EaBWeeMdr

I'm aware that this will impact many, many good workers. I can't tell you how sorry I am, but we will work to mitigate the suffering. It is our goal for everyone to get through this. #COVID19 #COVID19OhioReady

Every day we delay, more people will die.
If we do not act and get some distance between people, our healthcare system in #Ohio will not hold up. The loss won't only be those impacted by #COVID19, but the danger is also to everyone else who needs hospital care for other issues.

From Illinois Governor JB Pritzker…
There are no easy decisions to make as we address this unprecedented crisis — we must do what science and experts say will keep people safe.
With that said, I am ordering all IL bars and restaurants to close to the public as of close of business Monday, Mar. 16 through Mar. 30.
— Governor JB Pritzker (@GovPritzker) March 15, 2020
We are working with restaurant owners and food delivery services across the state to ensure restaurants can safely keep their kitchens open to continue food delivery to people in their homes.
— Governor JB Pritzker (@GovPritzker) March 15, 2020
Additionally, we are allowing drive-through and curbside pickup for restaurants to serve the public over this period.
— Governor JB Pritzker (@GovPritzker) March 15, 2020
We are working with restaurant owners in this effort. @ILRestaurant Association has been an incredible help to my administration in troubleshooting this issue.
— Governor JB Pritzker (@GovPritzker) March 15, 2020
I know how difficult this will be on small businesses around the state.
But we must do everything we can to safeguard the health of the citizens of Illinois, and that requires this urgent action.

California is doing some stuff, too…
Newsom also calling on all seniors 65+ and those with chronic conditions to home isolate.
There are more than 5 million people in California who are older than 65.
— Musadiq Bidar (@Bidar411) March 15, 2020
This is "guidance" but Newsom said he's confident it will be ordered by cities and counties, as happened with earlier the governor's guidelines that non-essential events with more than 250 people be canceled.
— Ryan Hagen (@rmhagen) March 15, 2020
California Gov. Newsom orders:
– Hone isolation for those 65+#
– Bars, nightclubs, wineries to close.
– Restaurants must cut occupancy by 50% (preserving takeout).Who wants to bet this gets expanded by Wednesday?

From Fox News:
Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., slammed China’s handling of the coronavirus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan, in an interview with Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures.”
Nunes, the ranking member on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, also mentioned that his committee was drafting legislation against the country, which is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, based on an investigation it has been conducting.
Nunes added, “They’re inefficient … They have people that are under authoritarian control. Think about it, the doctor that actually was the whistleblower on this ended up dead. If you look back to what the Chinese did, they probably had this in the late fall, especially early winter. Instead of like calling people in and learning how to help and develop a way for us to know how to treat this, they downplayed it.”

Apple Backs Down, Will Allow Parler Back on App Store
The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
Free speech is a fickle thing, and precious too. If we’re not careful, it can be stripped away but those who hide behind the claim that a “private” company can limit your personal freedoms. Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms are almost always the culprits here, bending the algorithmic reach of those with whom they disagree. Enter Parler: A free speech app where only the bare legal minimum of content would be moderated. The platform became incredibly popular with an astonishing swiftness, but soon faced trouble from companies who had previously aligned themselves with Facebook and Twitter’s more controlling stance. Apple, who had previously booted Parler from its App Store, has now relented to the Constitution. Apple has approved Parler’s return to the iOS app store following improvements the social media company made to better detect and moderate hate speech and incitement, according to a letter the iPhone maker sent to Congress on Monday. The decision clears the way for Parler, an app popular with conservatives including some members of the far right, to be downloaded once again on Apple devices. The letter — addressed to Sen. Mike Lee and Rep. Ken Buck and obtained by CNN — explained that since the app was removed from Apple’s platform in January for violations of its policies, Parler “has proposed updates to its app and the app’s content moderation practices.” On April 14, Apple’s app review team told Parler that its proposed changes were sufficient, the letter continued. Now, all Parler needs to do is to flip the switch. The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
For many North Carolinians, neighborhood living brings with it the peace of mind that the most invasive animals you might have to deal with are squirrels who are trying to rest in your attic, or raccoons hoping to fatten up from your trash can. The Tar Heel state has some bears, sure, but they’re not often the pestering or dangerous type like you might see in the Pacific Northwest or parts of California. But one man this week got up close and personal with a seriously frightening creature this week, after it lunged at his wife from underneath their car. A disturbing video captures the moment a rabid bobcat attacks a North Carolina woman—and the moment her husband grabs it off her and throws it through the air. Kristi and Happy Wade of Burgaw were walking to their SUV to take their cat to the vet the morning of April 9 when the growling animal ran across the street and attacked, WIS-TVreports. After throwing it several feet, Happy Wade eventually shot it after it ran into the couple’s garage and then continued to charge, ABC 11 reports. A neighbor who had been jogging by at the time stopped to help and called 911. Video of the incident is simply unbelievable. https://twitter.com/nojumper/status/1383145940807163904?s=20 The bobcat was injured by Wade and later euthanized by local law enforcement. An autopsy revealed that the animal was indeed rabid, and the family has been undergoing treatment for their numerous bite wounds.
