They've fired the Peace Corps

[QED]

"Olsen ordered the volunteers to self-quarantine when they arrive in the States, according to Ruck. But the agency “refused to spend money on assisting the (former) volunteers with hotel rooms, disinfectants, transportation, and all the necessary supplies for quarantine,” she complained.

The agency said volunteers in need “can apply for reimbursement for alternative lodging.”

Olsen’s letter gave the impression that the volunteers would return to their posts. “I also want to assure you and our host country partners that these evacuations represent the temporary suspension of Volunteer activities,” she wrote. “We are not closing posts, and we will be ready to return to normal operations when conditions permit. Importantly, our host country staff will remain in their current positions.”

The volunteers, however, are done, not temporarily suspended. Conditions permitting a return to normal operations include recruiting and training a whole crew of volunteers and rebuilding operations. Those terminated may reapply."

8. A friend's daughter was sent to Dulles from Senegal

Just dropped off with no money or ticket home to GA. Her Dad is a Naval Commander and out to sea, so her mom (my friend) left her two other kids at home, drove from Savannah to DC in one swoop, picked up her daughter and drove straight home. They are now quarantining for three weeks, and my friend is rage spitting. She is a conservative, but voted for Hillary, and she told me this morning her husband is enraged by how his employer treated his daughter, but can't say anything. He did vote for Trump, and my friend said she had to say, "I told you so."
