SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — As California moves through its methodical four-step process for reopening, some counties are pushing the boundaries by bypassing the state's orders or refusing to enforce rules against businesses that reopen without state permission.
Tulare County, in the middle of the state's vast Central Valley agricultural region, was the latest. Its Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to move into “Phase 3" of reopening, giving barbershops, movie theaters and churches the go-ahead even before the county had been approved by the state to go deeper into Phase 2.
The state called the county’s actions “hasty and careless” and warned in a letter it could lose state and federal disaster relief money. State officials made the same threat to three other counties that defied Gov. Gavin Newsom's stay-at-home order earlier this month.
County and state officials were in discussions after the letter was sent, Tulare County Supervisor Amy Shuklian said Wednesday. She thought moving ahead was a rash decision and voted against it.

At some point, one of these counties is going to be close enough I can go spend money. And I’m looking forward to spending money at any business willing to defy this unconstitutional political posturing.

Just don’t you threaten to cut federal funds to Newsom for his sanctuary state. The hypocrisy runs onto the floor.

Great. Now I can get my do it yourself haircut fixed.
Pretty boy Newsom seems to be in some kind of Statewide competition with Garcetti to see which political figure in the state could be the most insane and feckless....words fail me. They are getting closer and closer to creating the kind of local conditions that in banana republics trigger a military junta taking over. It’s really hard to believe, but this “Corona Virus” has really given these ready-to-roll tyrants, who both manage to put on a kind of incongruously pained smiley-face, all the justification they need to torture their state anx city and virtually everyone in it.
Lol! Merle's song is the first thing I think of when I hear the name Tulare County.

Wuhan virus is an all-purpose crisis package. Comes complete with church closures, elimination of civil liberties, and mail-in ballots!
GO TULARE COUNTY
This point I don’t really give a shit about anything except the goddamn bars !!!
when are the bars going to open???
I want to go to my favorite pub and have a pint and watch some music goddamnit!!!
I’m sick of all this bullshit Karen nonsense already you got it????
I’m sick avatar God dang bandanna around my neck and walk into a stupid ass store and every third one says “ hey could put that on your face”
I’m sick and tired of all the Karen’s walking around with masks all by themselves on the street or in the middle of the woods - morons!!!!
Whose with me ???
Open the damn bars and nightclubs already!
I live here ... sounds good but when a friend tried to open his restaurant the STATE liquor board said they would yank his license ,,, my church however is opening June 1
I don’t bother wearing a bandanna around my neck because I ain’t gonna pull it up around my face anyway, don’t feel like getting shot as a robber.
Went into a parts store in Redding and asked the lady at the counter if she wanted me to go out and get a bandanna out of the truck, she just laughed and said “HELL NO”.
Sold me the parts I needed and told me to have a good day.
Still a lot of people with common sense.
Would it not be cool, if all the real California residents all headed for Tulare County and grocery shopped, got a haircut or hair style, hit the restaurants and bars and just had a good time....all the while wearing their F**K NEWSOM t-shirts.
In 2018 election for Governor, John Cox won the county...He got 57.2%...
In 2016, President won the county...He got 51.9%...
I drove through the county once a long time ago...On the way to Fresno...
Good luck to the county...I do not support Governor Gavin...
To prove a point and get them under control again, dont you think these rats governors would look to re infect their populous? you say no? I would not put it passed them!
