- The White House had no immediate comment.
- The U.S.Navy's Bahrain-based 5th Fleet had not received any instructions.

- Pushes 'bankruptcy route' as local governments struggle"
- Would rather let state governments declare bankruptcy during pandemic
- Rather than receive more federal funding.
- Republicans should oppose additional aid for state and local governments
- We haven’t had much discussion about adding $2.7 trillion dollars to the national debt
- The way that could indeed also threaten the future of the country So heartening to note the rediscovery of PUBLICAN fiscal prudence In a press release he confirmed "we’re not ready to just send a blank check down to states and local governments to spend anyway they choose to.”
