18. DeSantis says no new lockdowns, mask mandates or any other anti-COVID-19 measure in Florida

Of course, if he is seen at a restaurant, it is no big deal, because he is a denialist through and through. But if a Democrat is seen at a restaurant, then Fox News starts demanding that the official resign or be recalled.

KISSIMMEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday ruled out imposing any further coronavirus restrictions or a mask mandate, despite rising case numbers across the state and nation.

DeSantis said there would be “no lockdowns, no fines, no school closures. No one’s losing their job because of a government dictate. Nobody’s losing their livelihood or their business.”

“That is totally off the table,” he said.

Monday’s event at Boggy Creek Elementary was DeSantis’ first news conference in weeks, meant to highlight a new order allowing schools to stay open for the rest of the year.
