    This is insane. The Army Corps of Engineers should absolutely be in hard-hit states building hospitals.https://twitter.com/ericuman/status/1240103281508134912 …

    This is beyond nuts. The administration *still* hasn't given the Army Corps of Engineers any orders: "We have not been assigned a mission.” https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/17/us/politics/coronavirus-government-army-corps.html … pic.twitter.com/vbkfXyjzid

        More urgency to deploy them to Standing Rock to protect pipelines than to deploy them during a pandemic and protect people.

        The real stupid thing is that the Corps will do this with pretty much 90% contractor work...

        I can’t help but think that the Trump Administration secretly bought into the Boris Johnson strategy of getting it over right away. That is more in line with their survival of the fittest and richest philosophy.

        Friendly reminder that our government has had over a month to prepare for this.

        The administration is probably taking bids from private contractors.

        There are many closed facilities that could be reopened. They need to at least start there but incompetent Trump is still prioritizing his stupid wall.
