When music’s biggest stars descend on New York for the Video Music Awards this week, NYPD cops will show up to check out the shows.
But they won’t be judging the talent. Officers in the NYPD’s TV/Movie unit will see if the performers and their entourages are wearing masks and staying socially distant,
...
unlike other travelers, the VMA musicians, singers and dancers won’t have to follow a state rule to quarantine for 14 days if they come to New York from any of 34 states
...
Under an executive order by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, anyone who violates the quarantine order is subject to a fine up to $10,000 or up to 15 days in jail.
But the state Department of Health has granted the VMAs a semi-exemption to the quarantine rule.

Some celebs are finding other ways to skirt the COVID-19 rules.
Kanye West flew into Teterboro Airport, N.J., on Thursday, then headed into Manhattan, where he pulled over on the West Side Highway to switch vehicles, and
...
Later that day, he headed back through the Lincoln Tunnel to catch another flight.
The quarantine rules do not apply to someone from a restricted state who is “passing through” New York for less than 24 hours, but that’s meant for those stopping at rest stops or on travel layovers.
...
The checkpoints and required forms have raised some hackles. Staten Island City Councilman Joseph Borelli called the rules “insane.”
“This is an unconstitutional breach of authority. States are added and taken off the (restricted) list a week later. No reasonable person can plan their life around Cuomo’s whims and de Blasio’s desperation,” he griped.

Exceptions for all the powerful or popular folks. The rest of us? “Wear a mask!”, “NO church for you!”, and “Quarantine or else!” How long will even compliant blue state voters take this?

Well, then at least they’ll have an audience.
We’ve had a whole f**king group (Until Freedom) MOVE to nearby Louisville KY to protest. Dem city mayor and Dem state gov, far as I know, haven’t said a peep about it. Until Freedom is planning on marching from a local park to LMPD training academy on Tues and the mayor actually had the balls to say ‘Public safety is #1’ I wanted to reach through the computer monitor and smack the shit out of him.
Leftists love their chosen “elite” that don’t have to play by the rules.
“Some pigs are more equal..”
The heart of socialism- it couldn’t work anywhere without this.
more proof of covid hype and fraud
SELECTED supporters of the LOCKDOWN STATE are like used, soiled smelly jockstraps.
The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism. The book contains the truth of the Party as well as a model for how to overthrow them, as is quoted at length in Book Two: Chapter IX of 1984. These sections go into detail about how the Party uses endless war, the manipulation of history, and the threat of the Thought Police to control the population. The book also lays out a hopeful plan of rebellion whereby the tiny resistances made by disobedient Party members eventually accumulate to become powerful enough to tear down the Party. Winston gets a copy of Goldstein’s book from O’Brien and is hugely affected by what he reads in this book. Although the content of the book seems to be largely accurate to the way the Party really works, we later learn that the book was not written by Goldstein, but by O’Brien and a committee of Party loyalists as another prop and trap for drawing in thought-criminals.
Simple solution to the pandemic,,,,Make HCQ and Azithromycin OTC drugs so anyone who develops a cough and/or fever can go the nearest drug store and self medicate with the drugs along with Zinc Sulfate with correct dosage within 48 hours of symptoms and pandemic over.,,,,,instead of waiting a few days to get tested and 5 days for the results,,,,if over 60 years of age,,,,you’re dead.
Cuomo us refusing to provide info on quarantine enforcement, how many people ticketed/charged/fined.
Gee, I wonder why....
I believe DC has a 14 day quarantine yet the House called everyone back for a Saturday vote. How did they bypass the system?
How often are the contact tracers tested/quarantined?
A battalion of Typhoid Marys, on the move.
This is hilarious. I’m shocked there’s hypocrisy on the left.
