Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, in a fiery address on Monday, declared New York independent from the federal government.
Invoking the Revolutionary War, the third-term Democratic governor said the state must stand up to what he describes as a federal assault on the states values, while outlining his 20-point agenda for the coming legislative session.
Ladies and gentlemen, this nation is in crisis. The social fabric is fraying and it is nearing its breaking point, he said. We must stand up to this tyranny once again. Not with muskets the way our founders did. But with our voices and our votes and with the power and example of our action here in New York.
His agenda, which includes marijuana legalization, gun control measures, and environmental protections, is New Yorks Declaration of Independence, Cuomo said.
We disconnect from the nationalism, and the racism, and the chaos, and the xenophobia, and the misogyny, and the discrimination, and the dissembling of this Washington administration.
As our forefathers rebelled against England resenting the kings values and abuse, let us announce New Yorks rebellion from the current federal policies, he said.

I say give it to them.........................
Notice that he did not declare ‘Independence’ from Federal Money......................
And another insane communist lib that should have been locked up years ago....
I originally thought this was satire. We all know that King Cuomo will never declare independence from Federal money coming into his state.
Well, bye.
And send them all the illegals
That would be a plus!
>>Invoking the Revolutionary War, the third-term Democratic governor said the state must stand up to what he describes as a federal assault on the states values,
So he’s gonna have slaves then?
Because we are told that whenever someone talks about states rights these days it’s dog whistle secret code for bringing back slavery.
I’ll be leaving as soon as I retire. 3 years tops.
>>s agenda, which includes ...gun control measures
As unconstitutional as “speech control measures”
You are calling your state its own fiefdom, prick.
New York has values????
Who knew?
>>We disconnect from... the xenophobia”
by rejecting and disapproving of the rest of America.
Hey this is good news....just think...their vote never count, they can not drain the feds money any longer....and the Feds take back all federally owned property.....then all those stupid people can kill each other.....GOOD NEWS
if he’s “independent” from the Federal government, then not one red dime to New York.
He’s like the 15 year old who complains about the house rules and thinks dad should buy an electric car to save the planet.
In his 2019 agenda, there’s not a dime’s worth of difference between him and Jerry Brown.

Well, it WAS posted by Laz!
Democrats won’t win the White House without Democrat electoral votes from California and New York.
Democrats lose the House without Democrat congresswuses from California and New York.
Done.
All federal funds and any form of disaster relief cut off immediately.
This includes welfare , EBT, social security, Medicare.
All electoral college votes taken away .
You become an off limits business partner with any states in the US
You function on the direct taxation of your captive servants
Lets see how long your kingdom lasts once they find out the idiocy of your boastful self serving rant
Agree. More smoke and mirrors. Check out my wish list for him .
