Gov. Kevin Stitt sent a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to declare the COVID-19 pandemic an ‘Act of God’ so the oil and gas industry can receive aid.

Stitt went on Twitter Saturday and shared a letter that he sent Trump.

Stitt said he wants Trump to declare the pandemic an ‘Act of God’ so that the government can provide aid to help the oil and gas industry and protect the environment.



If I remember correctly the oil and gas industry went into the toilet when Putin and Saudi Arabia started their oil war and SA opened up the spigots to drive down prices.

1. Man, that's just like God, isn't it?

Sending plagues and pestilences to kill off humans. What's next? A worldwide flood?

[Permanut]

6. I think the locusts might be next..

I think it's in Adverbs or Galoshes. Maybe Artesians.

10. And then they pray to this same God to banish this virus.

2. I don't know

if God is that angry at the oil & gas industry that he sent a plague, I don't think I'd annoy him further by bailing them out.

12. Yeah, you can't go against God's will

Careful, Oklahoma. You might be asking for a bunch of tornadoes or earthquakes or something.

3. It would also help the insurance industry

Acts of God aren't covered.

15. ding, ding

4. Sou ds like the Gov of OK is not OK

7. Actually he a first class asshole

that never should have been elected.... but it's Oklahoma, so he wo the primary by being the biggest tRumper, then won the general by being the one with that R by his name.

16. My sis lives in OK..

She hated Fallin but this asshole is so bad, she misses Fallin.

He put out a list of essential businesses, BUT then said businesses could send a request to become essential. So the state’s real estate industry asked for real estate agents to be essential and he approved it. Why? Because he owns a title company and a house building company. Sis is a real estate agent and a zillion clients were/are still wanting to go tour strangers’ homes. Sis opens the front doors and let’s her clients go in the homes alone.

5. But Trump is God

8. That Stiit

Every time he opens his mouth something inane comes pouring out. Is he trying to be relevant?

Ah, sure, it's an act of God, but it is means to try to get the unholy Republicans out of the way so we can get through this. It's a sign and an omen. LOL!

Ah, wouldn't the correct term be force majeure? He should know that. Oh, wait, but GOD!

9. Well, first, Oklahoma must turn away from sinning

What are they doing there anyway?

11. Or pray more. Some claim that God hears their prayers, send them up people. nt

[0rganism]

13. not that i'm an expert, but this does look like YHWH's handiwork

from what i've read anyway, it really does seem like something He'd do to an entire population specifically to make a point communicated selectively to a few individuals.

14. Protect the wha...?

Stitt wants an ‘Act of God’ to help the oil and gas industry and, uhhh...ummm? Oh yeah. Protect the environment. That’s it! Protect the environment. That, too.

[DFW]

17. Well, since Putin is considered to be God by some Republicans......

I guess it makes a perverted kind of sense.
