In an interview with CBS19 on Friday, Abbott said he’s disappointed that some local officials have refused to enforce his recently issued mask order.

A murderer, or a rapist or a robber is far more serious to concentrate on....

It wasn’t enough. Quinton de Kock doused that fire with a cool century and just like that, the Royal Challengers Bangalore had lost.
