New York's Governor Just Declared a New Public Health Emergency, But It's Not COVID-Related
Townhall ^ | 01/01/2022 | Matt Vespa

She’s a Democrat. It’s not like we were expecting her to be any better than Andrew Cuomo, but Kathy Hochul, who stepped in after the former resigned over sexual misconduct allegations, has truly gone off the reservation with this public health emergency. It’s not even COVID-related. The college faculty seemed to have overtaken this part of her staff because this isn’t a real health emergency. Well, it may be if you’re ‘woke.’

She declared racism a public health crisis, but these are the serious people who are the adults in the room, right? New York is once again the Mecca of a COVID outbreak due to Omicron, but let’s focus on…racism.

So, it’s not a big deal then—COVID? Right? 

I mean, we’ve seen the figures. We know the 90-plus percent survivability rate for…anyone who is healthy. I was told by this very party that Trump was to blame and that it’s a massive threat. I guess not if we can mess around with the far left and the items on their wish list, huh (via ABC News):

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has declared racism a "public health crisis," signing an entire package of legislation Dec. 23 aimed at addressing discrimination and racial injustice in the state.

"For far too long, communities of color in New York have been held back by systemic racism and inequitable treatment," Hochul said in a statement last week. "I am proud to sign legislation that addresses this crisis head-on, addressing racism, expanding equity, and improving access for all."

The new slate of laws address the need for comprehensive data collection on victims of violence and specifically Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders communities that have been ravaged by hate crimes throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

Oh, lord not the ‘Stop Asian Hate’ campaign again. This died quickly and the reasons were quite simple. Most of the perpetrators were black. The whole narrative that these attacks were sparked by Trump and his bashing of China for leaking the coronavirus just didn’t work. The white supremacists in this tall tale were black. And so, the media narrative died faster than Pete Davidson’s character in The Suicide Squad. 

If we’re going to waste time on the woke Left’s insanity, then nix the mask mandates and the COVID passports, governor. It’s obvious you also want to move on to other stuff.

Yep… decades of affirmative action and preferential hiring/promotion can sure “hold you back”. When will the insanity and DELUSIONS end?

Of course racism is a public health crisis in New York. New York is controlled by Democrats, the most racist, misogynist and hateful people in the U.S.

If New York wants to really fix itself, it should look to Texas and Florida for solutions.

There’s a black female prosecutor that I suspect wants to be Governor of New York.

I suspect the current Governor got to be where she is due to anatomical reasons.

Ask the Vice President about the value of anatomy.

The crises in New York for black human life are abortion and urban/gang violence, these kill the greatest number of black lives. How many black babies are aborted by white abortionists?

Yep and like Javert in Les Miserables, Letitia James is obsessed with prosecuting Donald Trump and trying to ruin the Trump Business with her endless investigations ( it’s been nearly 4 years and she’s come up with nothing, but she’s still trying ).

She just dropped out of the governors race to run for STATE Attorney General so that she can get more money than the city provides to pursue her vendetta.

The crisis, the catastrophe, in New York is that it is New York.

There is no cure for the cancer routing the state from within

Has it metastasized?

I was saying last year, WHY replace Cuomo when he will just be replaced with someone just as moronic if not more so? And here we are, another wacko living in fantasy land.

There was a bill in NY that was revoked recently after someone noticed it there that described concentration quarantine camps.

If that bill had gone through, I wonder if the Gov would be able to identify “racist” people and groups for quarantine in this facility.

A perfect demonstration of how emergency powers can be abused, and the Democrats willingness to do so.

How long until there’s a gun violence health crisis, or climate change health crisis, or a civil disobedience health crisis?

So she's not an improvement on Cuomo. Even though that is an extremely low bar. But with all the problems facing NYS this is a ridiculous waste of time and resources. What else to expect from government?
