Gov. Jim Justice announced a flurry of executive orders on Friday aimed at holding the coronavirus pandemic at bay — ramping up a mask mandate, declaring an extra few days of Thanksgiving break for students and delaying winter sports for schools.
“Today, we’re moving to get more restrictive and do stuff,” he said.
Adjutant General James Hoyer of the West Virginia National Guard called on residents to fulfill their duty by helping.
“The governor is doing this to prevent the wave we’re seeing at other places in the United States of America,” Hoyer said. “We’re looking out for your best interests.”
The most significant move calls on West Virginia residents to wear a mask any time they’re in an indoor business. West Virginia already had a mask mandate, but this would raise the stakes.
“We are making this as an ultra-mandatory requirement for all of our businesses,” Justice said.
Businesses, he said, would need to enforce compliance or risk their licenses. If patrons refuse, the governor said, then businesses should call the police, who could bring obstruction of justice charges.
“To our business owners, I am telling you straight up, the next thing that follows this is you know what and that is the shutting down of businesses,” Justice said.
For schools, Justice suggested breaks would need to be a little bit longer to account for the likelihood of the virus being spread as families get together. So, he said, there will be no classroom instruction from Thanksgiving until the following Thursday.

He talks just like 0bummer. Stupidly.
Guess this isn’t surprising for a politician who switched from R to D five years ago and then switched back three years ago to get elected.
And all the dipsh*ts who thought this unconstitutional nightmare was going to end with the election... Obviously had no idea how stupid people are, and how much they’ve screwed everyone by letting these a**holes think they have the RIGHT or the authority to do this. EIGHT MONTHS, and they’re getting more insane by the minute. Welcome to the rest of your life... with a mask.
Ronald Reagan nailed it regarding the nine scariest words...
“I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.”
I’ve got something that they can stuff!
Beware of the person who tells you that he or she has your best interests in mind. You are about to be SCREWED!
Two weeks to slow the spread has turned into 8 months to the day here in West Virginia. I voice my opinion and people stare me down. My students want to come back to school full time. They’re the only ones in their right minds.
You can’t hold a virus at bay. That is not how it works. That is not how any of this works. Hiding from the virus only reduces the number of available hosts temporarily.
WV has something he can stuff.
Lots of coal that he can pound where the sun don’t shine.
Or so his constituents should tell him.
MY MIDDLE FINGER IS GETTING TIRED
Wiki:”With a net worth of around $1.9 billion, he is the wealthiest person in West Virginia He inherited a coal mining business from his father and built a business empire with over 94 companies, including the Greenbrier, a luxury resort”
Republican other than a Dem (2015-17).
The last U.S. president to stay at The Greenbrier during a presidency was Dwight D. Eisenhower. A total of 26 presidents have stayed at the hotel.
The Greenbrier is also the site of a massive underground bunker that was meant to serve as an emergency shelter for the United States Congress during the Cold War
“”and do stuff,””
You know! Stuff!
To a teenager on their way out the door:
Where are you going? Out.
What are you going to do? Stuff
It’s like when people say, “see what I’m saying?” or “see what I mean?”
They know they’re not making any sense themselves and they hope you’re going to say “yeah, I get it” when you are wishing they would just shut up!
It’s what teenagers and politicians say when they don’t want to tell you what stuff they’re doing.
