Last night, the @NYYRC allegedly snuck into Jersey City to hold a “gala fundraiser” – ignoring our social distancing and mask rules.

It is beyond the pale that anyone would willingly endanger people in another state.

Jersey City law enforcement is investigating this matter.

It is also beyond the pale that Rep Matt Putz – I mean @RepMattGaetz – would participate in this. What a fool.

Matt – You are not welcome in New Jersey, and frankly I don’t ever want you back in this state.

Someone from our side starts calling these idiots exactly what they are!

I applaud Chris Murphy.

is the best way of keeping them from doing damage at home. I know I wish we would have sent Ronald Reagan to Congress instead of electing him Governor. Hell, I wouldn't want Matt Gaetz to be on the board of directors of my HOA.

? I'm down here, south of The South.

Matt Gaetz's congressional district is up in the very tip of the panhandle and isn't even in the same time zone as the rest of Florida.

What they allowed was a bit of a no-no, and they're kinda stuck in one place.

Thoughts and prayers... for those stupid people's relatives.

I forgot but I think he was at least twice in quarantine for the hoax.
I'm hoping for Karma coming around. Unfortunately, these idiots are rather the ones who spread it and murder others.

Republicans are so obsessed with power -- gained by the billionaires' propaganda machine -- they are willing to let people die, or actively spread covid-19, to keep it.
