Cuomo: Travel Restrictions On New York Are ‘Federal Act Of War’
Daily Caller News Foundation ^ | March 28, 2020 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 03/28/2020 4:35:59 PM PDT by kevcol

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday that government-mandated travel restrictions on his state would be a “federal act of war.”

He also said he is willing to sue Rhode Island for implementing a policy requiring visitors from New York to self-quarantine for 14 days in order to slow the spread of coronavirus.

“He also said he is willing to sue Rhode Island for implementing a policy requiring visitors from New York to self-quarantine...”


Ah, but Andy, can I call you Andy? You will have to sue Rhode Island in a Rhode Island court. That’s the 11th Amendment. Good luck with that.

Yo, Cuomo - keep your diseased migrants out of MY state!

LOL - People are fleeing NY to get away from the disease, and other states aren’t all that happy about it, as they could well be carriers.

Bad news out of Manhattan where a family member is a doc at a major hospital. They still have beds and ventilators, but there’s a crazy mortality rate for any patient that needs to be intubated. I won’t repeat the number she told me, but ventilators aren’t going to be enough.

We need a treatment. Yesterday. FDA needs to approve extraordinary measures, or there will be many needless deaths, and terrible injuries to survivors.

Hmm. Wonder why Cuomo chooses to single out Rhode Island?

The Governor of Florida was the first to mandate a 14-day quarantine from all visitors from New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. He has since added Louisiana to the list.

Florida has Police at the airports, and state troopers near the border all monitoring persons and traffic from those states.

But, Cuomo chooses to target the tiny state of Rhode Island?

The numbers are scary. The NYC metro has become the epicenter of this thing.

So many people so densely packed. It's a large petri dish.

“The governor does not understand the power the Constitution and the American people give to the President of the United States.”

He also doesn’t understand that he has zero authority over RI.

Pres. Trump has the legal authority, under current law, to order the CDC to impose travel restrictions anywhere in the US the CDC deems necessary.

From what I have heard, I am afraid you are right.

Two weeks. It will be much worse before it gets any better. So we need to lock NYC and other places down before this gets spread faster than it is.

Iowa just shut off water to campgrounds, and is getting ready to lock down hotels. To many Chicago people fleeing

I sure wouldn’t mind seeing the national “news” TV go dark. And that includes FOX.

I'll leave it to the cyber experts to accomplish that denial of service when the time comes.
