Federal judge rules Gov. Wolfs shutdown orders were unconstitutional
A federal judge in Pittsburgh on Monday found that orders issued by Gov. Tom Wolf restricting the size of gatherings and closing non-essential businesses to protect against the spread of covid-19 were unconstitutional.

The PA Health Department now has a press conference scheduled for 3:30 which I’m sure will be a revolting fear fest.
“This judge is TRYING TO KILL YOU!!!!!....”
I think he means the movie Casino, which is all about being compromised by mobbed-up thugs. Harry Reid is a central character.
Great news.
Now what??
Too late
What will our glorious He-bitch overlord have to say?...
I know the Federal Reserve bank buys government bonds, and creates money in that manner for the federal government to spend. Government bonds are sold to investors, many of whom are overseas.
We taxpayers pay our taxes, but we don’t pay enough to pay all of the ongoing expenditures of the federal government. Thus, deficits happen.
I don’t know if we have a national debt ceiling anymore. I think it was obliterated by the trillions we have spent on Covid 19 relief.
We’ll find out at 3:30
Can’t read that display of the ruling.
The reasoning presented in the article is pretty lame. I assume the ruling was more legally based.
Businesses should be lining up with lawsuits with all the restrictions placed on them. Government essentially took over their businesses, so let gov't be on the hook for it.
Okay, just what I thought :- /
At least suits were filed and a GOOD ruling was made.
Ill hope for more good news, from this.
Where are all of the lawsuits, against OTHER shutdown Govs????
ZzzzzzzZzzzzZzzzz.
Id like to see bar owners join with churches, hair salons, citizens deprived of being with loved ones during sickness, marriages, funerals, etc, Biz owners, etc, filing suits across the fruited plains.
I can deram, cant I?
There may be other suits pending. I don’t really know. Apparently this suit was filed on May 7 and we finally get a ruling on Sept. 14. Wolf will appeal which will achieve his goal of pushing this all past the election.
The flu is coming, “hunker down” until May 1st 2021...
We're long past due for codifying the limitations of government, especially state governor diktats. In addition to codifying the limitations, the penalties, including prison sentencing in addition to fines needs to be codified.
Law or code enforcement who obey such an unconstitutional diktat need to be stripped of their authority in addition to jail time and fines. It didn't hold up at Nuremburg and cannot hold up here.
One could ask "who do they think they are?" but the answer is whoever WE let them be.
It would be wishful thinking that this could be applied nationwide.
hoping, as in the immortal words of Budd Dwyer,
Please leave the room if this will affect you.
Since this is a Federal Court and NJ is in the same Federal district does this mean the dictates from Das Fuhrer Trenton should fall too?

That’s why it’s sure to be overturned. Judges are modern day tyrants.
