The state education ministers are meeting today to decide what to do with preschools and schools (supposed to re-open on Jan 11). I need schools to stay open for DD2's mental health, but I need them closed so we don't get Covid on the home stretch to the vaccine. Someone hold me.

My kids go back to school face to face today and I'm just not sure how long it will last. Sigh. Ds1 is struggling as is.

Our schools open Friday and no chance they will close, but with the local hospital full I’m not eager to get sick now. Good luck.

My kids go back on the same day and I am in the same boat with you. They have been virtual mid-October, so while I very much need a break from my children, Covid is reaching more and more people that I know so sending them back is even more frightening now than it was in September.

Moncef Slaoui, Chief Adviser to OWS just got called out by Alisyn Camerota for falling short of vaccinating 20 m people. He tried to argue that the goal was DOSES not PEOPLE, so they rolled a compilation of tapes, including him on air saying that they would hit that number. So be pivoted to talking about how amazing the vaccines are and then accused CNN of saying we would never get a vaccine.
And now he is blaming the states for not being prepared and ready for the vaccine.
I'm sure this is frustrating because the doses are sitting around waiting, but clearly a national vaccination strategy is needed because this isn't working. The OWS team needs to lead.

There was a headline in yesterday's Post that bassaid the vaccination operation is a mess because nobody is in charge. Accurate.

I'm sure there was a lot of work that went into the distribution to states part of this whole OWS but what the hell have they been working on all this time if it didn't include actually getting shots in arms? Ugh.. we need Biden's team asap. What a mess.

The Trump GA call was something and apparently violated both GA election laws and federal election laws. It will be very interesting to see what happens after inauguration. I can understand Biden’s DOJ not taking any action for a variety of reasons, but I am pretty sure the majority of the decision makers in GA are going to need to be talked off that ledge.

I totally think the Republican-led Georgian judiciary should go after him. Democrats doing it would be horrible optics and precedent, but GA? They should have at it 👍👍

I also believe that absolutely nothing will come over the GA phone call.

I just listened to the entire georgia call. It's a wild freaking ride. I couldn't stomach listening, so I read about it instead.

When will the insanity end? This has gone too far, and by them humoring him, it's getting more and more dangerous. Like what precedent is this setting, and what is the response going to be when Biden is actually inaugerated?

I'm confused about them leaning into GA so hard. He still doesn't win even if he gets GA, right? Is this just about the runoffs? Normally I would wonder if there's a strategy here but I think he's literally just insane at this point.

So, it is a GA voting systems dude. And he is going to be the subject of a Twitter rage shortly. Because he is going all in on this. He is talking about the cameras and how they show how nothing went wrong. How all votes counts. He is PISSED
