RUSH: Try this. “California state university system to cancel classes for the fall semester.”<\/a> This means the California state university system is shutting down through December. Well, they\u2019ll do telelearning, yeah, but, I mean, they\u2019re closing the campus. The chancellor of the California state university system announced yesterday that the schools will not open in the fall.<\/p>\n

In fact, the chancellor, Timothy White said, “Research has not indicated that universities will be safe by the fall semester and a vaccine\u2019s not expected until early next year at the earliest,” and the vaccine may not work, \u2019cause Dr. Fauci said that. And there may never be a vaccine, and so far no vaccine for any coronavirus-like disease has ever been found, including SARS and the common cold. So does that mean the California state universities might never reopen? Well, yeah, if you listen to these people, it\u2019s exactly what the hell it freaking means.<\/p>\n

Now, here\u2019s something else they\u2019re doing out in California. The University California system, this is different than the Cal State university system. We\u2019re talking about Berkeley, USC. The university system is not the same thing as the Cal State university system. And the University of California president is Janet Napolitano. And you know what she\u2019s doing? She is urging a suspension of admission testing requirements until 2024.<\/p>\n

\"\"In other words, get rid of the SAT, get rid of the ACT, get rid of the ABDMY, whatever there is, get rid of it. They have wanted to get rid of these admission tests for I don\u2019t know how long because they think they were all written by white men to exclude everybody but white men. So now they want to get rid of the SAT, the ACT so they can let any dread anywhere from the world in under the rubric of diversity and fairness.<\/p>\n

“In recent weeks, many public and private colleges have joined a movement to halt or end testing requirements. Some were spurred by the education crisis created by the novel coronavirus pandemic. Others said test scores were not as useful as grades and transcripts in rating applicants.” Yeah, because some of these applicants, they don\u2019t test well, they don\u2019t do good. But we want \u2019em in our system anyway, so we\u2019re gonna get rid of all of the things that they don\u2019t look good in so that we can admit them.<\/p>\n

“Last month, citing the pandemic, UC suspended its requirement for an ACT or SAT score. … Napolitano, in a memo to the Board of Regents made public Monday, said she wants to go further. … By 2025, Napolitano\u2019s memo said, ‘any use of the ACT\/SAT would be eliminated for California students and a new, UC-based test would be required.'”<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll guaran-damn-tee you what this is about. This is no different than wanting to get rid of the Constitution, get rid of anything in this country that can be traced back to a so-called white, racist majority founding it as unjust, unfair, racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe.<\/p>\n

In addition to the University of California system and the Cal State system shutting down until December, Los Angeles has extended its stay-at-home order for the next three months. They just wiped out the summer in Los Angeles County. They just wiped out the summer. Do you know how many businesses they have just sentenced to death? Do you know how many other institutions they have just sentenced to death by issuing a stay-at-home order, extending it the next three months. That\u2019d be June, July and August, the beginning of September. Then they\u2019ll extend it again.<\/p>\n

Now, you sports fans, let\u2019s look at one of the practical potential results of this. They\u2019re building a new stadium in LA County for the Rams and the Chargers to play. It\u2019s called SoFi Stadium. Construction has kind of gone up and down, in and out, because there have been some construction workers that tested positive for the virus. It\u2019s now not certain that the stadium will be ready to go for the opening of the NFL season. The original act that was gonna inaugurate this new stadium was a Taylor Swift concert. That has been canceled.<\/p>\n

Oh, have you heard the sad news? Taylor Swift, because of the virus and climate change, has sold one of her two private jets. Had you heard that? Aw it\u2019s such a tragedy. It\u2019s a sacrifice, it\u2019s a tragedy. You hate seeing that kind of hardship happen to people. Just hate it. Anyway, the NFL preseason starts in August. There\u2019s no way, if they were gonna try to play any preseason games, Rams or Chargers, SoFi Stadium, that\u2019s done.<\/p>\n

Now let\u2019s talk the regular season. Let\u2019s say the NFL opens up — and they fully intend to focusing — and let\u2019s say that LA County continues its stay-at-home extension, they\u2019re gonna have to move two Los Angeles teams. The Rams and the Chargers are gonna have to find other places to play. And in fact the league is already looking into it. Las Vegas might be an alternative place for both of those teams to play. Then they gotta relocate the 49ers. What the governor\u2019s doing is a little bit different than the Los Angeles people. But good grief. Extending the stay-at-home order all the way through September in LA County.<\/p>\n

\"\"Now, here\u2019s a story from the Millennial left-wing news site called Axios: Coronavirus cases are not surging in high risk states.<\/a> Wait. What? “The first stages of reopening haven\u2019t produced a surge in coronavirus cases in most states.” At least “not yet,” they write hopefully.<\/p>\n

“The reopening process is still in its early stages,” so don\u2019t feel so hot about it right now. A second wave of infections still could happen. Oh, we hope it does, at Axios. They\u2019re dying out here. Georgia, Florida opened up. There is not this massive number of new cases. The death toll is not rising, and it\u2019s not mounting, and the Drive-Bys are distressed. Coronavirus cases are not surging in high risk states. Florida\u2019s new cases actually declined by 14%, compared to the previous week. Georgia fell by 12% after reopening.<\/p>\n

Yeah, so some of the states that all of these experts, all of these skeptics were most worried about have not seen the rise in total cases that the experts feared. Florida\u2019s new cases have, again, declined by 14%. Georgia\u2019s are down by 12%. Nevada leads the pack, a 44% reduction. Several hard hit states that embraced aggressive lockdowns — Michigan, New York, and New Jersey — saw reductions of at least 30%.<\/p>\n

But, of course, the bottom line, as they say here, “None of this means that any state is in the clear. But it is an encouraging early sign.” And we had to throw that in but we wish we didn\u2019t have to, they write. So we\u2019ve got all this doom and gloom yesterday at the Senate hearing. We have all this back padding, all the, yeah, I\u2019m doing great, we\u2019re doing this, we\u2019re doing that, we\u2019re coming up, we\u2019re making grade strides. But we can\u2019t open up. Nope. We can\u2019t open up. May not even get a vaccine that works. Oh, no. Can\u2019t go back to school. Can\u2019t open schools. Meaning, parents can\u2019t go back to work.

And, meanwhile, where they are opening up, the number of cases and deaths are actually beginning to fall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
