One of my favorite TCT comments was when he insisted sheriffs report to prosecutors.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

A Sheriff would report their findings to a prosecutor to assess if charges are warranted but not in a boss-subordinate kind of way... he’s a little slow.

While I can't speak for restaurants on a statewide basisi,I can only think of four possibly five restaurants/brewpubs that haven't been open since the first week of June here in the greater Traverse City area.Two shut down on a permanent basis (Little Bohemian which has been for sale for many months,and The Franklin, which always had a tough time getting enough volume through there doors,from my understanding).The other closed places that I know of include The Cooks House, which seems to be run by a couple of kooks,J&S Hamburg on South Airport,and possibly Georginas which is in the process of moving.
Looking at Facebook, I see that the Cooks House already opened on the 16th of June,and J&S Hamburg South will soon reopen for dine in after a remodel project.

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Quick get 696lover on the case... they walked this back. Those regions are showing increased risk for COVID-19 is all. In fairness to 7... FOX 2 had the same thing.

This was the get your s*** together now because we're shutting you down notification. She will provide "clarity" in the next 24 - 48 hours, meaning they will be pushing those regions back, and probably metro Detroit too, to phase 3 just in time for the 4th. This is the same playbook that was used to implement restrictions in March and April.

Every COVID exposure except 2 in our area in the past month came from a Metro Detroit visitor, based on contact tracing.

The language she used today says no - overall the state is "still doing okay". I suspect it'll be more surgical, focusing more on establishments where alcohol sales dominate. Maybe pausing indoor dine-in too.

So far, I haven't seen documented where there have been uncontrolled outbreaks at businesses that aren't primarily focused on food and beverage sales.

You'll need to source this, or I'm calling bullshit. No way that you are privy to that level of personal information except through second-handed gossip.

The restaurant lobby has been working hard to separate itself from the Bar economy.

I wish they would strategically strike on business that are superseeding via licensing, rather than take out entire industries.
