Governor of Florida on reopening schools

Washington Post:

DeSantis on Wednesday gave a brief address about the reopening of schools and noted that Martin County Superintendent Laurie Gaylord had told him that she viewed the reopening of schools as a mission “akin to a Navy SEAL operation.”

“Just as the SEALs surmounted obstacles to bring Osama bin Laden to justice, so too would the Martin County School system find a way to provide parents with a meaningful choice of in-person instruction or continued distance learning,” he said, according to a transcript on the state government website. (Bin Laden was killed in a compound in Pakistan in May 2011 by a team of Navy SEALs from the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Development Group.)
