A few days ago, it was over 500.
Wow.
Downtown Los Angeles is 28!!! Yet the Communists would have us believe that America is up to its eyeballs in toxic swill-don’t fall for it!!!
Give them a break. The ChiComs have promised to do something about it starting in 2035. They promised our pretend president.
