Great and all. But can we get something below a state of emergency. Everything seems to trigger one of those these days. It kinda loses it’s meaning when overused.
State of emergency just sounds scary but it’s more about unlocking additional funds for issues. My state was under a “state of emergency” for drought. All it ment was some industries and communities could receive extra subsidies for water costs.
Except it often also unlocks executive powers, not just funds. So yes, there should be a level that allows unlocking funds without everyone having to check if democracy is being suspended.
What inappropriate powers are available in CA
Idk about CA specifically. But even if none were available, it is still a term that is used for unlocking such powers on the federal level and in some states. So if CA does not have such powers, then just rename it I guess.
We need a defcon system for emergencies.
It’s so great to have a good administration coming in that will have a good handle on the upcoming 2025 plague! /s
They should publish a copy of the “playbook” this time on a government website so they can’t dick around saying it doesn’t exist again
In before Trump pulls a Mao Zedong and declares war on birds.
And to think he was trying so hard to save them from the wind turbines, and this is how they repay him…
Yeah at least we had 4 years of a president who didnt pretend covid was over /s
He can start by banning raw milk.
Why do I get the suspicious feeling that there’s a significant overlap between people who want raw milk and are against vaccines.
Lol who is downvoting this is one of the steps that must be taken.
I don’t think the impacts of this are being fully realized yet…like the stores here (Sacramento) are low on eggs, the zoos have taken the birds off exhibit, and I live next to a large wildlife preserve that’s a huge bird migration path and they just like haven’t been there this year. Those giant starling clouds were an annual thing for a week or so and they just didn’t happen this year. It really feels like there’s a LOT less small birds; the big herons and stuff are still visible, but like walking the preserve is noticeably quieter.
Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.
Good for you. Shit cost me a few hundred thousand dollars and almost killed several relatives. Child
We got Mr. Really Fun At Parties here huh?
Never heard of Gallows Humor eh?
It just wasn’t funny.
It was angsty.
Your username states otherwise in the joking part so sorry don’t believe ya at all
1.) You had a few hundred thousand dollars?!
2.) Almost?
Destroyed my business
They were in the ICU
Got any more brain busters? Only a kid would wish for another pandemic
You’d think you could deal with a flu outbreak in cattle without a state of fucking emergency. You’d also think that you’d not make claims about a flu humans aren’t getting yet as extremely deadly to humans.
It’s probably a legal thing involving interstate commerce. As the flue is spread also by trucks driving out of bird flue areas into non affected and this can then be regulated
Over one case?
Seems a bit overkill for the moment, no?
There are currently 61 active infections in humans and 34 of those are in California. Our poultry farms have been devastated with millions of birds killed.
They’re as (corpo)left as Texas is right.
To the same extremes, just the opposite direction.
Truth hurts. Fuck Pelosi and Trump.
