South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is inviting Minnesota bar owners to relocate to her state after a COVID-19 restrictions crackdown.
“Come to South Dakota! We respect your rights. We won’t shut you down,” the Republican governor wrote Monday on Twitter.
Noem, 49, is widely seen as a Republican rising star and is an outspoken advocate against lockdowns.

Well, the science indicates that face masks and social distancing work.
Also, Vitamin D is beneficial. In cold climates where people spend winter days indoors, they get less sunshine, so less Vitamin D.
Also, the virus dies off at higher temperatures (which is why a fever is a defense mechanism) but the virus survives the cold rather easily.
North Dakota is logging 1,600+ deaths per million, which is 4th highest in the nation.
What is happening in the Dakotas is a national catastrophe. These states have low population density, and they were not a destination for Chinese tourists or Chinese businessmen. They should have been spared this loss of life.

the science indicates that face masks and social distancing work.......Since when, Noob? We’ve been imprisoned for over 3/4 of a year and NOTHING has defeated, mitigated this disease (if it really exists).
There are still some meat-packing plants in that state, as far as I know. COVID likes to party at those facilities.
I’m also taking extra D for lockdown-fortified depression, so I guess being more resistant to the Frankenvirus will be a side benefit in that respect.
I’m talking about S. Dakota. I don’t know how much meat packing is in N. Dakota.
I'm seeing this type of comment quite a bit.
How were you able to find out how these bar owners voted?
Do you have a link to that science?
“the science indicates that face masks and social distancing work.”
Do you understand that for every person of “the science” who says that, there’s another person of “the science” who says the exact opposite? So drop “the science” buzz phrase; it’s ridiculous. Scientists on both sides of the equation come to opposite conclusions. When the CDC admitted that over 80% of covid victims were avid mask wearing sheeple, it pretty much tells you all you need to know. Using CDC’s data, a sentient person infers that masks actually CAUSE WuFlu.
Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) was host to 3 of the first 20 diagnosed cases. Silicon Valley has a huge population of Chinese nationals and dual nationals who are constantly flying back and forth to China. And thousands of Silicon Valley techies routinely fly to China. Silicon Valley is also a huge tourist destination for Chinese nationals.
Given this, you would think they were getting slaughtered by Covid19. Right? Wrong!
Silicon Valley was the first in nation to lock down. They observed social distancing. They followed face masks.
Their death rate is 304 per million. If they were a state, they would be fourth from bottom, about half of Oklahoma, Montana, or Wyoming. Less than half of Idaho.

“They observed social distancing. They followed face masks.”
Fine if they were happy living like freaks with soul-less eyes meekly peeking out above scuzzy cloth masks, and standing like soldiers a distance from friends and family. There’s a lot to be said for, “Live free or die”. Truly, I rather would die than live like that. I understand people HAVE fear; I don’t identify with that.
Be safe.
LOL....what do you consider nice weather?.....not being snarky.....I grew up in Miami, and hated it, but people love it....I live in NYC, a bit too cold in the Winter for me, but love the other 9 months...and we have beach!...and pure crap government!!
If Santa Clara county had the same death rate as North Dakota, there would be 2,500 additional fatalities.
I don’t think 2,500 dead Americans is a small price to pay for not wearing a mask.
And it’s not just the 2,500 who were spared a death from Covid19. When hospitals get overwhelmed, all patients are denied access to healthcare.
How many of those cases are Native American? SD has several large Indian Reservations
The source I use does not break down Native American mortality or infection rates within the states.
But if there is a high mortality rate among Native Americans, that is an even a larger tragedy.
The population density in Native American reservations is among the lowest in the nation - or the world. They do not travel to China for business. They have no Chinese or European tourists visiting them. They don’t have Chinese nationals living among them, travelling to China and back.
“I don’t think 2,500 dead Americans is a small price to pay for not wearing a mask.”
That’s a non sequitur, as once again you’re ASSUMING that masks work to prevent spreading WuFlu. “The science” that I know and believe says they don’t. If people are afraid then they should take the precautions they believe in, even if they’re placebos. They absolutely should do that if it makes them feel safer.
If deaths are true to CDC data, then if everyone wore masks, that 2,500 number would be much higher — since data shows that between 80% and 90% of covid victims faithfully wore masks.
I used to think I’d be glad when all of this is over, but it’ll never be over. Fauci and the other fear mongerers will keep this alive forever, because it’s fun for them to f—k with the minds of us “little people” outside of their elite and controlling bubble.
Please, God, let it be over!
Santa Clara County’s death rate (300 per million) is the envy of the nation. This is despite the fact that thousands of passengers were flying in from China to SFO every day.
Sana Clara County must be doing something right.
What is your source saying 80% of Covid19 patients used masks? The science indicates the virus spreads through respiratory droplets - think of when you exhale, and you fog a mirror. A mask impedes the spread of respiratory droplets.
Also, a mask protects not just the person who is wearing it, but also the people around him.
If you wear a mask, and people around you don’t, your risk factor goes up.
As I thought.
“She will be the first woman President!”
I’ll be there for her that day. Every time she speaks all I hear is “America, America, America.”
She’s terrific.
Yes Kristi, do what that idiot Rick Perry did to Texas and pull California businesses into your conservative state so they can infultrate lower levels of governement and start turning you purple. Brilliant idea!
Windier!
