Why Was The State Of Washington Hit So Hard?

You can read the story behind the above image by clicking here:

Forget Mexican or Syria refugees, the people living in the tents above are American citizens.  I’m going to let that sink in for a moment.

Donald Trump Thinks Homelessness Is a Scourge. His Administration Just Ousted the Official in Charge of Addressing It.

So, what has this or any of my posts for the last few days got to do with the Coronavirus?

Do you remember Ellis Island?

When an immigrant arrived at Ellis Island, they were processed in and given a physical.

If they didn’t pass that physical, they were denied entry into the United States.  They either stayed on Ellis Island until they were well or, they were sent back home.

Do you think anyone in this picture got a physical before or after they crossed the border?

Do you think the troops, out in the fields of Syria, are giving these people physical before they’re sent to the United States?

And a few weeks later, they are stocking the shelves of the local grocery, or cooking your food in the local restaurant, doing your nails, or babysitting your children.

And those American citizens, living in Tent City, in the state of Washington are also working in nursing homes, offices, restaurants, etc.

I’m not anti-immigration, in fact, I’m all for it.  Just done the right way.   Or, we can do this – shelter in place, again.

Also, can we make it a law that the President can’t just go around firing people with key jobs like – Matthew Doherty, executive director of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, whose job it was to oversee these camps – just he didn’t like him.
