Alabama county received 5,000 rotted masks from national stockpil

Officials in Montgomery County, Ala., say that thousands of medical masks the county received from the national stockpile last week were rotten and expired.

Local emergency management director Christi Thornton said the package of 5,880 procedure masks was ruined because they had dry rot, The Associated Press reported.

The face covers reportedly had a 2010 expiration date.

Maybe El Presidente could sign them all and make them better. Souvenirs!

Considering how Dear Leader should have been checking to see how are stockpiles were doing via his cabinet, this is not a surprise.

So, let's run government like a business, huh? I have seen people be more prudent and consistent at home than this Bankrupt Bandito is as the de facto dictator of a country. He certainly is no public servant because he thinks we are all here to serve him and his interests.

I guess he would say those mask are perfect masks. Beautiful masks. "I don't see anything wrong with them!"
