Gov. Pete Ricketts of Nebraska has reportedly informed local governments that they will not receive any of the possible $100 million in federal Covid-19 money if their “customers” are required to wear masks in courthouses and other local administrative offices.
Odd? Or super odd that this news came out the same day he had a meeting with Trump about reopening the state.
Nebraska. I don’t even like driving through it.
Well that just makes perfect sense! (not)
These people don’t value lives.
Politicians are dumb.
Masks are useless, feel good placebos. Good job Pete.
Clearly Ricketts values obeisance to trump more than he values the lives of Nebraskans.
I wonder if he prayed and Jesus told him to risk the health and lives of 2 million people. RightwingNutjob
What the hell?
So he's going to pay for local govs to hand out free masks if the ppl don't have one right? Or no wait he's probably going to just let Nebraskans get sick and die for 'liberty'
smfh!
Well, that makes sense. bangs head against wall
So? You are mad?
I am starting to loathe this country
Sicko!
