Cuomo: Travel Restrictions On New York Are ‘Federal Act Of War’
Daily Caller News Foundation ^ | March 28, 2020 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 03/28/2020 4:35:59 PM PDT by kevcol

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday that government-mandated travel restrictions on his state would be a “federal act of war.”

He also said he is willing to sue Rhode Island for implementing a policy requiring visitors from New York to self-quarantine for 14 days in order to slow the spread of coronavirus.

Don’t worry Andy. It will just be another reason for you to claim that “America was never great.”

President Trump said “parts of the Northeast” not the whole Northeast. I doubt the whole State would be quarantined...just the New York City area, and it’s outlying counties that have the highest number of cases. But Andy Pandy’s too stupid to realize that.

Well now Trump will definitely do it....

Nope.

"On the recommendation of the White House CoronaVirus Task Force, and upon consultation with the Governor’s of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, I have asked the @CDCgov to issue a strong Travel Advisory, to be administered by the Governors, in consultation with the Federal Government. A quarantine will not be necessary. Full details will be released by CDC tonight. Thank you!"

What’s the problem? Who would want to leave their liberal paradise anyway?

Scream about how bad the Coronavirus is, then scream about protective measures. He is insane.

He really is all over the place, isn't he? I can't tell what side he'll come down on next.

You'd be surprised at the number of legislators who don't understand the EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT and want to resurrect it.

Cuomo will be toast quickly threatening to sue neighboring states. He must think he has all the power already.

“...so I’m trying to figure out why he said it.”

He certainly got a response from Cuomo that will not inure Cuomo to many people outside his state.

Gone forever the exalted, wise leader image he has carefully crafted.

The $10k cap on state income tax deductions helped drive people out of high tax states like NY and CA, thereby watering down their Electoral College count. Perhaps the Prez thought causing an added exodus due to Coronavirus could hasten their decline.

Or not...but we can dream, can't we?

Give New York back to the American Indians who were swindled out of it to begin with!

All current citizens living in NY would lose American citizenship and become part of a new independent American Indian nation... The Stock Exchange and any supporting financial institutions would be moved to north-central Louisiana...

The American Indian reservations would become partners and all current and former members of the criminal organization known as the Bureau of Indian Affairs would be handed over to the new nation as indentured servants, or hung... Their choice...

A temporary travel ban, lasting for 10-years, would be enforced... No visa would be issued for 10-years as well...

Isn’t this the same guy that summoned a fleet of refrigerator trucks for use as temporary morgues and said someone is dying every 17 minutes because of coronavirus

I think that was our commie mayor.

Coumo Q&A from the “press” is like a walk in the park compared to Trump.
