We’re trying to fight the hangover of enduring so much @GovAndyBeshear Fear Beer. We’re going to try to chug through another one of his briefings, because we love you. Bear with us as we live tweet

@LtGovColeman kicks things off. Tech guy didn’t have audio up so everyone missed her first statements.
@GovAndyBeshear announced this yesterday. It’s using taxpayer money to mitigate damages done by is policies. Money allocated to assist with bills, food, mortgage, rent, etc. it’s welfare in every sense of the word. 
State Representatives who are scared of @KYEducators & other @GovAndyBeshear allies should NOT be trusted to file, nor carry, legislation that would “restrict” the Governor’s emergency powers.
Such a bill would be watered down & insufficient in protecting our rights. 1/6

Best action legislators can take is sponsor Rep. @SavannahLMaddox’s BR 130. BEST! How do we know? It bothered @AndyBeshearKY enough to respond during his briefing.
An alternative bill should be viewed as only an attempt to throw us a bone while placating Beshear supporters. 2/6

Leadership is likely to pick a member to sponsor a new bill. DO NOT ACCEPT IT!
Be on the lookout for potential legislation to be filed by State Rep. Regina Huff, or potentially another willing member. Rep. Regina Huff represents part of Laurel County & all of Whitley Co. 3/6

A gym in Richmond, KY was cited today by the Madison County Health Dept. The form delivered by the @GovAndyBeshear administration cites an administrative regulation that potentially violates KRS 13A.244 (4)(a). 1/4
@AndyBeshearKY’s mask mandate does not have the incorporation by reference. But that’s not all 2/4
The #MaskUpKY mandate is an emergency reg by @GovAndyBeshear. First one expired in 30 days, & then he renewed it. That violates KRS 13A.190 (4). Also, public hearing dates for mask mandate are pushed back w/ each illegal renewal. Purgatory. 3/4

We would love legal minds to weigh in on this.
This picture is the citation form that @GovAndyBeshear & the Dept. for Public Health has sent to local health departments to issue to business & individuals who violate the orders. 1/9

First, for the sake of this inquiry, lets just assume two things that are not true. 1. That the Governor’s orders are constitutional, and 2. The local health departments have statutory authority to issue these fines. 2/9
According to KRS 13A.224 section (4)(a), in order to “implement, interpret, or prescribe law,” the order (face mask order as an example) must have “incorporation by reference.” 3/9
Drug abuse is up big time. This guy’s addicted to Andy.
@GovAndyBeshear is worshipping at the alter of masks to begin his daily briefing.
@GovAndyBeshear reminding us that his true character has been revealed during this time of crisis.
Getting started late on the #KYFreedom live tweet. Cutting through the Beshear Spin (BS).
Beshear announces a record high amount of cases yet, 1,163. Convenient for his school shutdown recommendation, but not for the effectiveness of his mask mandate and bar/restaurant restrictions
He's pouring the Beshear Fear Beer hard. Very frothy. Using the case numbers to argue why schools shouldn't go in-person.
Meet Buddy Hoskinson, who has been appointed to @MuncieMcNamara’s former position of Executive Director of Unemployment Insurance. He previously served as Dir. of the Office of Employment & Training & also Director of Vocational Rehabilitiation. 1/4
His state govt tenure began under the Steve Beshear admin. Surprisingly he was a donor to fmr Republican Gov. Ernie Fletcher & Former Republican AG candidate Todd P’Pool. An unusual change in pace for @GovAndyBeshear to not reward campaign donors. He’s being closely watched 2/4
...maybe he’s counting his losses. Hopefully Hoskinson can get a grip on the debacle Beshear & @JColemanKY have created in that office. Interestingly, the administration wouldn’t allow Hoskinson to take questions or provide a statement to the media. 3/4
The Madison Co. Education Association (MCEA) is turning up the heat to make sure there’s no in-person school. It shouldn’t be a surprise when you see who heads the MCEA.

Prediction over the next two weeks:
- Pressure from the KEA & groups like @120Strong to not hold in-person classes amplify.
- @GovAndyBeshear will get more bold, beyond mere “recommendations” that in-person school shouldn’t happen. Eventually, @KyDeptofEd says no in-person 1/6

Remember...
1. @GovAndyBeshear has been really hammering home on more cases in young people for the last couple weeks.
2. @JColemanKY has already set up unlimited NTI days. Easy out.
3. @AndyBeshearKY is expecting & pressuring congress for bailout $, including education. 2/6

4. The KEA has stated no in-person unless positivity rates “significantly drop”, & just today positivity rates reached over 6%. Furthermore - & as an example - the Madison Co. Edu Assoc began pressuring the Madison Co. School Board to upend already voted on in-person plans. 3/6
@GovAndyBeshear keeps using that speculative graph of “what would have been”.
It’s worth noting the countries with no mask orders have less cases and deaths compare Denmark, Sweden, Netherlands, and others (no mandate) to the US, Spain, Italy (pushing masks).

That face you make when you find out @KentuckyFreedom will be calling you out on your Beshear Spin (BS) again.

@GovAndyBeshear is a few minutes behind it seems, but we are ready to roll...
Expect @GovAndyBeshear to take credit for efforts undertook by the @MattBevin admin to create jobs. @AndyBeshearKY didn’t do it in a few short months & during a pandemic where he stood in front of a camera daily. The last admin hustled & Beshear reaps the fruits of that labor.
@BritainyBeshear starts out to tell us about how they are going to convince kids to #MaskUp. She’s reading a script to begin.
In terrifying fashion, @BritainyBeshear repeats the slogan “we will get through this. We will get through this together.”
#KYFreedoms school proposal if districts opt for virtual/NTI learning only.
Since teachers would be given the ability to work from home or potentially not at all in some cases, principles should require teachers be present at the school even though students will not be. 1/5
Since teachers would be given the ability to work from home or potentially not at all in some cases, principles should require teachers be present at the school even though students will not be. 1/5
State employees & private sector employees across the state are going to work, safely social distancing & are expected to meet their full obligations as professionals. KEA members especially should as well since the union is advocating for no in-person classes. 2/5
With no students present in school, health fears of teachers can be mitigated. They can socially distance & utilize their classrooms for virtual learning much better than they could at home. It will provide students some form of normality & a sense of legitimacy. 3/5
We’ve officially reached 500 followers! We will be live tweeting @GovAndyBeshear’s 4 PM propa....Erm...#COVID19 briefing. Follow along with this #KYFreedom thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
@GovAndyBeshear has taken the germ podium, complete with his face diaper which he is now removing and placing on the germ podium..
@GovAndyBeshear begins with a look back on July. Says it was the toughest month and last week was the toughest week. Says it will have ramifications. Says it will likely me a month with a lot of deaths. Says we should be concerned.
Another @GovAndyBeshear #unemployment disaster this morning in Frankfort. A report from a friend waiting in line at the Frankfort office to fix a claim:
“They only just stared to take 8:30 appts around 9:35. There’s absolutely no structure, no in-take procedure. Dozens...1/

...here do not know what’s going on or what the process is. They’re just standing & waiting. 1 person has been to the prestonsburg office, & here twice-NO RELIEF. Another has been to that office & here twice; said waiting is getting worse. This is such a profound disaster.” 2/
@GovAndyBeshear senior staffer, Rocky Adkins, was spotted going by the capital plaza hotel. They HAVE to be aware.
Some ppl there have done this multiple times. They said the appts are a joke. The KY State Police trooper recently came out, a woman asked...3/

@GovAndyBeshear says there will be an update on contact tracing today.
Beshear says nationwide, we are seeing more #COVID19 cases than ever before.
@MuncieMcNamara testifies that shortly after @GovAndyBeshear’s initial economic shutdown, former deputy Sec. of the Edu & Workforce Dev. Cabinet received news of a person who committed suicide after losing their business, which prompted efforts to add self-employed to UI benefits
@MuncieMcNamara describes his time as Exec Dir. of the #Unemployment Office as one where hard working & experienced UI staff was told daily how horrible of a job they did, & explains how dictatorial @GovAndyBeshear was in demanding corners be cut, even if violating federal govt.
Describing the 1000 people the @GovAndyBeshear administration hired to simply answer calls, says he never saw a significant amount taking care of those responsibilities.
We will be live tweeting, with brevity, @GovAndyBeshear’s #COVID19 press briefing

@GovAndyBeshear reminds us we are at war and we don’t know how long it will last. #fearmongering activate!
At 1 o’clock eastern time, KY state legislators will hear from the state epidemiologist (KY’s version of Dr. Fauci). Interestingly, @StevenStackMD is not on the agenda to appear. He’s hiding. The epidemiologist is scheduled to provide an updated infectious disease (COVID-19).
This is a great opportunity for the @GovAndyBeshear’s administration to be grilled on some of the info pertaining to the virus. Dr. Alvarado serves as a chairman, & likely knows his stuff. Tune in for what’s hopefully an informative meeting.
You can watch it live at 1 p.m. at ket.org/legislature
Due to work obligations (we run this page as a public service), we will likely be unable to live tweet. Will update if we can. Apologies!

Beshear tells us what day it is and reminds us we are experiencing high amounts of cases. Says today “no exception.” Emotionally prepares us for result.
