Trump indoor rally site fined $3,000 for violating state coronavirus guidelines
Source: CNN
The Nevada company that hosted an indoor campaign rally for President Donald Trump attended by thousands of people will face a fine of $3,000 for violating state coronavirus guidelines banning large gatherings.
Sunday's rally in Henderson, Nevada -- which was held inside a facility owned by Xtreme Manufacturing -- was expected to violate the state's restriction on gatherings of 50 people or more. Attendees at the rally were not required to wear masks, and there was little social distancing. The city of Henderson had warned Xtreme Manufacturing that it would be violating the regulations if the rally proceeded.
"During the event, a compliance officer observed six violations of the directives and the City's Business Operations Division has issued a Business License Notice of Violation to Xtreme Manufacturing and assessed a penalty of $3,000," Kathleen Richards, senior public information officer for the city of Henderson, told CNN in a statement Monday.
Richards added that the company "has 30 calendar days to respond to the notice and pay the penalty or dispute the notice of violation."

I hope the Trump campaign will compensate them for the fine. Who am I kidding? This is deadbeat Don we're talking about.

I hope that when Biden takes office and - god helps us - the senate is still R, that it will pass a law saying that the president has to abide by the laws of the land. At least, it will prevent the next R maniacal from imitating Trump.

He believes in Trump and constitutional rights of free assembly, he says.

Why no seating? Suitably distanced, of course. Sit down, shut up, put your mask on, don't holler!
$3K? That's saying . . . you were naughty, here is a token fine, but never mind, carry on!
