It seemed clear several weeks ago this was going to happen. East coast blue state governors and West coast blue state governors are uniting to begin the economic civil war planning to block any White House effort to re-open the U.S. economy.
The three step plan seems predictable: (1) Get out ahead of President Trump. (2) Defy the all clear and shape economic benefit to their political allies. (3) Then use Faucis upcoming dossier to hit the administration for heartlessly opening the economy too early.
♦ On the East Coast the governors of New York (Cuomo), New Jersey (Murphy), Connecticut (Lamont), Pennsylvania (Wolfe), Delaware (Carney) and Rhode Island (Raimondo) have started assembling their economic war council with the intent to keep the northeast region shut down. Controlling critical ports and infrastructure is a key part of their strategy.
EAST COAST Six Northeast governors will form a working group to come up with a plan to restart [control] the regional economy, they announced on Monday.
♦ On the West Coast the governors of California (Newsom), Oregon (Brown) and Washington State (Inslee) are also assembling their economic war council for similar intents and purposes. Combined with their political northeastern allies, controlling two-thirds of U.S. ports will give them a strategic advantage to keep choking the economy until after they can install their commanding general in the White House.
WEST COAST The governors of Washington, California and Oregon on Monday announced they were working on a joint plan for reopening [controlling] their states respective economies once it is safe to lift coronavirus-related restrictions.
It appears the Governors did not want to assemble their plans openly; however, they rushed to publicity to avoid their enemy, U.S. President Donald Trump, striking strategically against their schemes. During this economic war residents within the Blue occupied territories will be held captive to the political whims of their regional generals.
The economic freedom and liberty zone will encompass the Red region. The center of the country, mid west, southern region (surrounding the Gulf of Mexico) and south eastern Atlantic region. These areas will be open to commerce and economic freedom.
However, the urban dense populations (Blue pockets within Red zones) will push-back against the efforts of the Red generals in an attempt to retain alignment with their Blue team generals. Depending on the strength of the urban forces there may be roadblocks, sabotage, skirmishes and political violence against the freedom & liberty Red team.
Red captives within the Blue zones will have to be smart and strategic. Big Blue tech will be assisting the totalitarian Blue generals. Direct confrontation against the Blue forces should be avoided, and it will likely be a better strategy to fight stealthily as insurgents.
Any Red team member of the economic freedom alliance, trapped within a Blue region, is warned to evaluate their connection to their electronic devices. Your cell phones could be used as portable transponders expose your movement and your political views.
This is going to be one hell of a battle. A Spring and Summer conflict like weve never seen in the history of U.S. politics outside of actual, physical, civil war. Fortunately for team freedom and liberty, this time the Red zones control most of the citizen armory.
Thanks Robert A Cook PE.
Since when do they care about the Constitution.
P-O-W-E-R and control is all that matters to them.

If the Dem states want to stay closed when middle America opens up, only they will suffer, big time. They can’t be that stupid can they?
On the map, the states in question are blue states that have in effect seceded from the union.
They are sanctuaries that have ceased acceptance of federal law.
California especially should be declared a non state and declared to be under federal law as a territory. It would no longer have any states rights
“Peer pressure” resulting from watching people in neighboring states that open up who will soon go about their former lives — living, working, playing — on peoplw (actually, “subjects”) in states whose faux-king governors maintain their iron-fisted authority will become a significant factor ... as will the pressure of revenues generated from businesses reopening and people going back to working and shopping weigh heavy on the faux-king governors’ minds in any state that remains shut down by their fiats.
“Sorry if pointing that out offends you.”
Paranoid much? Why would it offend me? That never entered my mind. I was just pointing out a truth. It seems weird that you think that FReepers shouldn’t post titles with words you don’t like. Whatever.
“It seems weird that you think that FReepers shouldnt post titles with words you dont like. “
Are you somewhat not able to follow the flow of posts?
I said : “It is eye-rolling how many times its used by people here.”
Which is a reply to the compilation post of ALL THE TIMES IT IS USED. Those links were not to post titles, but to reply posts.
That apparently was interpreted by you for some reason as: “If the people here are posting an article with that title”.
the people will see thru this....the pub governors better get their act together....
see what these freaking fearpers have wrought...they bought it hook, line and sinker....
Wait a minute, I thought those of us who live in the blue states were just a bunch of useless dope-smoking layabouts (according to some red staters anyway). Now the US economy will collapse without our participation? It’s almost like some of us are productive citizens or something regardless of where we live.
As for the citizens’ armory what good is that going to do? Are we really at the point of forcing our neighbors to go shopping at gunpoint? Or is the coronavirus warded off by proximity to lead? I’m as pro-2nd Amendment as they come but we can’t shoot our way out of this one.
