Trump announces executive order aiming to make hundreds of deregulations amid coronavirus permanent
Fox News ^ | May 19 2020 | Morgan Phillips, Blake Burman

President Trump announced an executive order Tuesday that aims to make hundreds of deregulations in the age of coronavirus permanent, something that would amount to a massive overhaul of regulatory policy.

"We've done far more regulation cutting than any president in history," Trump said at a Cabinet meeting ahead of signing the order.

Fox News is told the executive order tells regulatory agencies to look at more than 600 regulatory actions -- mostly deregulations, but also regulations and guidance -- taken during the coronavirus pandemic and tell the White House which ones should be made permanent.

What a dark day for those federal bureaucrat ‘public servants’ who make a fat living shaking down Americans for bribes and favors in order to keep the Fed boot off their necks.

I wish he would issue an Executive Order freeing up the use of HCQ, so doctors could prescribe it freely to the public.

Sweet! The tears of government “workers” who enjoy harassing Citizens hopefully will flow freely for some time. Excessive regulations are the refuge of losers.

Another example of the President's brilliance and courage...

FWIW I’ve seen several articles that say that if you’re taking HCQ prophylactically, you don’t need the zinc.

No reason HCQ shouldn’t be OTC like it is in at least done countries. Lots of things sold will kill you if used incorrectly.

Unless the zinc causes problems, it seems that at least ensuring your levels are good to a bit ‘elevated’ might not be a bad idea.
