Donald Trump’s pal, Rodney Howard-Browne, arrested for coronavirus endangerment
Even as responsible leaders keep trying to lock down the United States in order to keep the coronavirus death toll as low as possible, corrupt goons keep doing everything they can to endanger people. Now one of them, who happens to be a close pal of Donald Trump, has been arrested for it.
Over the weekend, Tampa megachurch pastor Rodney Howard-Browne held a church service in direct violation of local coronavirus lockdown orders. In so doing, he put the lives of about five hundred of his congregation members at risk. So the local sheriff had him arrested today. Howard-Browne is, not surprisingly, a huge Trump fan and a close Trump ally.
This is a major step in the right direction. The coronavirus lockdowns aren’t a matter of religious freedom. In fact this lockdown would have protected the lives of these churchgoers, if this corrupt pastor hadn’t committed the criminal act of telling them that God wanted them to show up to an unsafe gathering.
Of course the Republican Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, is guilty of far more reckless endangerment by refusing to lock down the entire state. Here’s hoping that once all is said and done, DeSantis somehow ends up arrested as well.
