No @fabiolasantiago you missed the point it wasn’t about “people at the beach” it was you wished death on @realDonaldTrump and @GovRonDeSantis supporters. Apologize for that! @MiamiHerald @UF https://t.co/mfYJraPDap — Evan Power (@EvanPower) April 20, 2020

She’s just covering her a**:

So your plan was to “save lives” by publicly hoping the virus would “thin the ranks of Trump/DeSantis/Gimenez supporters” once the economy begins re-opening… But you’d like to clarify that you “would never wish any harm on anyone”? 🥴 — Cliff Sims (@Cliff_Sims) April 20, 2020

Now, over to you Miami Herald:

Is the @MiamiHerald ok with this? — Jeremy Frankel (@FrankelJeremy) April 20, 2020
