Mental illness could reach alarming levels during the coronavirus lockdown if not kept in check, a WHO chief warned Friday https://trib.al/2Npeu9m

I’m completely in favor of many of the state lockdowns, but against a national lockdown. There are many places in the US that are not in a dire enough place with this virus that they need to destroy people’s livelihoods to save lives.

Federalism is a + in this crisis, not a -.

"The lesson here is that we distribute power in America for clear, compelling reasons, especially in domains of life that are of the most importance to us, where individual control and community agency are invaluable." https://thedispatch.com/p/why-state-and-local-governments-are @thedispatch @smarick

In this crisis, let’s not forget our heroes: Veterans.

My father, 3 uncles, 5 great uncles and 2 grandfathers are all vets who, like so many, served with honor.
The lack of treatment & care for our vets during #COVID19 is dishonorable.

They deserve better. We owe them better.
