This allowed, bars, gyms, dine-in restaurants, bowling alleys, in-person church services, ... all to open up.

At that time, California was just about to flatten out, but the pressure to open was too great so Gov. Newsom opened up!

I didn't understand it, because we were just starting to see the Memorial Day numbers kicking in.
That's just 1 weekend and now he's opening up the whole state.

Understand that people started going to beaches a couple of weeks prior to Memorial Day, and Newsom had all the beaches closed. But local economies need the beach-goer money, so they wouldn't enforce the closed beaches. The enforced the closed beach parking, but the beach-goers just parked on the street.

This was just about the same time that the Pendejo in the WH was screaming to his clan to pressure the (D) Governors to open the state.

Newsom did and here we are.
