"I support our governor, I think he's doing a tremendous job and he's looking out for the entire state of Minnesota, whereas I'm looking out for the unique characteristics associated with the city of Minneapolis," Frey said. "Moving up to 25 percent capacity and up to 250 people in places of worship is a recipe in Minneapolis for a public health disaster."

TRUMP BLASTS MINNEAPOLIS MAYOR, VOWS MILITARY SUPPORT IF NEEDED
He continued: "That is not the route that we can or should be going on right now. We are considering some form of an emergency regulation ourselves to prevent that number of people gathering in one place."
The Monday comments from Frey underscore how quickly things have changed in Minneapolis. Instead of worrying about keeping worshipers out of their churches or mosques or synagogues, Minneapolis has been unable keep looters out of its stores or its buildings from being burned. Police in riot gear have had debris hurled at them and rioters even took over and burned a police precinct.
Frey, in a plea for peace Thursday night, noted that his government was giving face masks to rioters in an effort to slow coronavirus spread.
"The City encourages everyone to exercise caution to stay safe while participating in demonstrations, including wearing masks and physical distancing as much as possible to prevent the spread of COVID-19," a press release read. "The City has made hundreds of masks available to protesters this week."
Minnesotans, although Walz is slowly lifting some of the state's coronavirus restrictions, are still technically subject to a number of other limitations when it comes to their public lives.
According to Walz's latest order, gatherings of more than 10 are prohibited; people "must" telework if they can, even for critical businesses; retail stores may only have 50 percent capacity; gyms and bowling alleys are closed; outdoor gatherings are drive-in only; and pools are closed to everyone except for youth programs.
RIOTERS TORCH MINNEAPOLIS POLICE PRECINCT DURING THIRD NIGHT OF VIOLENCE AFTER GEORGE FLOYD'S DEATH
Republicans are now arguing that the situation in Minneapolis is out of control.
"Mayor Frey & Gov Walz have completely lost control in Minneapolis in a catastrophic display of failed leadership," President Trump's campaign account tweeted. "The city is on fire & they outrageously arrested a CNN crew. @realDonaldTrump called in DOJ to investigate George Floyd’s death. Clear-eyed justice must be served!"
Trump, for his part, has threatened to bring in the National Guard -- which he tweeted on Friday morning "has arrived on the scene" -- and argued that Frey is "very weak."
"I can’t stand back & watch this happen to a great American City, Minneapolis. A total lack of leadership. Either the very weak Radical Left Mayor, Jacob Frey, get his act together and bring the City under control, or I will send in the National Guard & get the job done right," Trump tweeted Thursday night.
A second tweet from the president further threatened that the federal government could "assume control" and was later flagged by Twitter for violating its rules about "glorifying violence."
"These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen," Trump said. "Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!"
WHITE HOUSE HITS BACK AFTER TWITTER CRACKS DOWN ON TRUMP'S MINNEAPOLIS TWEET, REPOSTS CENSORED MESSAGE
The comment about "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" is similar to language used in 1967 by a Miami police chief on how he would deal with "young hoodlums, from 15 to 21, who have taken advantage of the civil rights campaign."
Twitter and the White House have sparred over the addition of the warning label to Trump's tweet.
The CNN comments Frey made Monday were not the only time he discussed his desire to keep people out of places of worship.
"We've spoken with faith leaders from across our Twin Cities, and what we've heard loud and clear is a strong, unified commitment to protecting the health of their congregations and continuing to hold services remotely," said a joint statement from Frey and St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter last Saturday. "Any large in-person gathering amid this pandemic puts people at risk."

The statement later asks religious leaders to put their congregants' "health and safety first."
Frey himself added on CNN Monday: "Oftentimes, older, senior citizens, attending services, singing and breathing and at times, even with physical distancing, they're in close proximity to one another... We need to be looking our for public health right now and the truth is there is no right to put other peoples' health at risk."
Floyd Monday died while in police custody, as an officer used his knee to pin Floyd to the ground by his neck. The officer who choked Floyd as he begged for air, Derek Chauvin, and three other Minneapolis police officers involved were fired. The Associated Press reported Friday afternoon that Chauvin was arrested. Many have called for Chauvin to be charged with murder, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who represents Minneapolis.

When reached for comment on Friday morning, a spokesperson for American Airlines offered Fox News the following statement:
“The CDC does not recommend using a face shield along with a face covering,” the spokesperson said. “We’ll continue to study this issue, but our current standard is for flight crews to wear face coverings and to follow other important procedures such as frequent hand-washing as the most effective ways to stay safe.”

foxnews--2020-05-28--Will Trump force social media to clean up their act?

President Trump escalated his war on social media networks yesterday , raising the existential question of whether they should be held responsible for the sometimes false and ugly content they carry .
There ’ s little question that Trump is punching back against Twitter ’ s decision to slap a fact-check label on two of his tweets about voting by mail , and channeling the longtime frustration among conservatives about bias .
Trump unloaded on the tech companies ' `` monopoly '' as `` one of the greatest dangers '' to free speech , saying these firms have `` points @ @ @ @ @ @ @ '' to engage in censorship .
TRUMP SIGNS SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTIVE ORDER , CALLS FOR REMOVAL OF LIABILITY PROTECTIONS OVER 'CENSORING' It ’ s obvious that the president relishes this fight in the midst of a campaign , and at a time when the coronavirus has now claimed more than 100,000 American lives .
But that doesn ’ t mean he ’ s not raising a valid issue .
Twitter acted again against Trump early this morning , this time restricting distribution of a tweet after the latest rioting in Minneapolis that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The violent protests continued after no charges were brought against police over the death of George Floyd , who died after an officer held his knee against the man ’ s neck for nine minutes .
Trump tweeted : “ These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd , and I won ’ t let that happen .

Twitter didn ’ t help itself by pinning its “ potentially misleading ” findings on CNN , NBC and the Washington Post , outlets that Trump and his allies view @ @ @ @ @ @ @ took no action against Trump ’ s Twitter tirade promoting an unfounded conspiracy theory about the 2001 death of a young aide in Joe Scarborough ’ s Florida congressional office .
Trump is demanding that the so-called cold case be reopened , although Scarborough was in Washington when Lori Klausutis died in what police ruled an accident .
Yet Dorsey ignored a heartfelt letter from her husband Timothy , who said the tweets were forcing him to relive the agony of her death .
My coverage on Fox is quoted in a New @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the network didn ’ t cover the uproar over Scarborough in prime time Tuesday , but there has been no shortage of criticism from conservative editorial pages , and even a few Republicans such as Liz Cheney .
A Wall Street Journal editorial called Trump ’ s accusation against the host of MSNBC ’ s “ Morning Joe ” “ is ugly even for him ... Mr. Trump always hits back at critics , and Mr. Scarborough has called the President mentally ill , among other things .
But suggesting that the talk-show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ death is n't political hardball .

There is a difference , though , between mocking someone ’ s ratings and hurting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their tragic daughter because of a petty feud… “ Is that really the president you want to be , sir ?

Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg , who ’ s had mixed results with truth-squadding , told Fox ’ s Dana Perino he disagreed with Twitter ’ s move : “ I just strongly believe that Facebook shouldn ’ t be the arbiter of truth of everything that people say online.

Trump tweeted: “These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!”

The First Pentecostal Church of Holly Springs in Mississippi burned down early Wednesday morning .
The congregation had been in a legal battle to continue holding services despite the novel coronavirus outbreak and subsequent lockdown orders .

`` We 're in a time where I do n't think it 's any secret that there 's a growing hostility toward churches , across the board , '' Crampton said .
`` And now , here are churches like First Pentecostal that are sort of stirring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ somewhat firm about seeking to protect their Constitutional rights . ''
He added , `` They 've had bad comments [ sent their way ] on social media .
...
There is just a segment that takes issue with the church standing up , and the church just being the church . ''
Crampton represented First Pentecostal in court after its pastor Jerry Waldrop was cited for holding Easter Sunday services .
The Thomas More Society also claimed police disrupted a Bible study group held 10 days after the citation .
Last month @ @ @ @ @ @ @ issued an order allowing First Pentecostal to stay open for drive-thru services .

Crampton represented First Pentecostal in court after its pastor Jerry Waldrop was cited for holding Easter Sunday services. The Thomas More Society also claimed police disrupted a Bible study group held 10 days after the citation.
FEDERAL JUDGE SAYS MISSISSIPPI CHURCH CAN HOLD DRIVE-IN SERVICES
Last month, U.S. District Judge Michael P. Mills issued an order allowing First Pentecostal to stay open for drive-thru services.
“These were outrageous violations of these parishioners’ rights,” Crampton said at the time of the ruling. “On both occasions, Holly Springs law enforcement personnel ignored the fact that all church members present were practicing social distancing and complying with all applicable health requirements.

Crampton said the church has mostly been battling local leaders on the issue and not the governor's office, specifically citing Mayor Kelvin Buck and the city council as the main opposition. He also said the case to hold full church services is still pending and that he and his client were awaiting a ruling from the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals when the fire happened.
"The church has long been wanting to resume in-person meetings," he explained. "But the city continues to impose what we believe is not only an unconstitutional but illegal order under our state law, which says local municipalities and government entities cannot impose restrictions that are more severe than what the governor has imposed. And the governor has, from the getgo, declared churches as essential business and operations.
"The local order is set to expire June 3 and it looks like we couldn't even get a hearing before then if we stayed in the lower court," Crampton continued. "So we filed an emergency appeal and request for an injunction pending appeal. ... We expect a ruling from the 5th Circuit, hopefully by Friday."

Nonessential industries permitted to reopen under Phase 1 include construction, agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, retail (limited to curbside or in-store pickup or drop off), manufacturing and wholesale trade, according to the site.
The New York City Phase 1 reopening could send as many as 400,000 city residents back to work. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Thursday that he is working with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to work out how mass transit will operate. De Blasio noted that, as more staff return to work, MTA subway services “can increase.”

The mayor also said that the city will send teams from different city agencies to make sure companies are reopening safely, while noting that the goal is not to penalize the businesses, but do more to help. De Blasio did, however, warn that if there are health or safety violations, the city could issue fines.
De Blasio also announced that the city is working to get New York City public schools opened by September 10.
“You don't go from zero to 60 miles an hour, you go from zero to 20 miles an hour. You start to open gradually [and then] watch how the system operates. If you need to adjust, adjust,” Cuomo said.

Phase 2 reopenings in the future would incorporate malls, dine-ins, large gatherings, gyms and movie theaters, among other venues.

TRUMP, BIDEN MARK CORONAVIRUS DEATH TOLL IN DIFFERENT WAYS
"I mean, I know that Trump then tweeted something about the 100,000 dead, but that's only because Joe Biden did it. I bet he'd rather be out playing golf... The whole country has to suffer because his father liked his brother better or something," she said.
"I mean, the man is lacking a genetic part of his life, or part of his makeup, and that is empathy. He doesn't have it. You can't develop it. I don't think that he will ever -- he's old now. Forget about it. He's never going to have it."
She later questioned Trump supporters' empathy.
"The people who are sticking with him also don't care if he has empathy -- maybe they don't have any. Ever since he locked those children up at the border, made fun of the handicapped -- I listed a few of the things, they've already been behind him. They have not changed. They're still 43 percent. So, the other side has to come out in enormous numbers because they're never going to change those people -- that's how I see it," she said.
Behar asserted that voters faced a stark contrast in November -- between a man who was empathetic and one who insulted the handicapped.
