Cuomo on possible New York quarantine: 'I don't think it's legal' and it would be a 'federal declaration of war'
CNN ^ | 3/28/20 | Kelly Mena

More than 52,000 of the nation's over 113,000 coronavirus cases have been reported in New York state alone. And officials are forecasting that the apex of the pandemic there is still 14 to 21 days away.

"This would be a federal declaration of war on states," Cuomo said, adding that he doesn't think the President is looking to start a war with states.

President Trump should send the engineers in to blow the bridges, and crater the runways.

From an emergency declaration. The remedy is that 2/3 of Congress can override it. The courts have no say. At least under the old Constitution American used to be under.

There’s a clause allowing the President to protect the republican form of state governments.

It’s really Florida’s problem. Let Florida stop the New Yorkers at the border and turn them back.

It’s just fine for governors to force business shutdowns and enforce stay at home orders...but Trump mentions quarantine and governors lose their minds.

Blow the bridges, shoot down all attempted helicopter escapes.

These people don’t know the meaning of the phrase social distancing or sel-quarantine. Instead they’re taking off to other states, the Hamptons and upstate.

They voted for it, they embraced the sanctuary, they called travel bans racist, they told everyone to go to Chinatown and to that health warnings were also racist; they should own it. Their bed, they pooped in it.

I’m in a county with 200,000+ people and 6 cases. The total hasn’t moved in days.

“Where would Trump get the authority anyways?’

If Trump doesn’t have the authority, do individual states? It has been reported that Rhode Island is not allowing New Yorkers in RI, and Florida will be blocking visitors from Louisiana.

Where does it give the President the power to quarantine a city?


See Ft. Sumter

Trump said he’s not going to do it according to Fox News.

I know that this isn’t the same, but liberal politicians had no problem restricting their own state employees from traveling to other states because of social justice concerns. And there was no health emergency. So now, that there are genuine concerns for the public health, politicians are concerned about travel restrictions.

“...the right to spread their infection to the entire U.S. “

It’s coming to you until there is a vaccine. It’s only a question of how fast, though slower progression will allow some herd immunity to develop.

It’s totally a crap-shoot.

You can watch it here:

You lose your bet. President Trump is already backed off the possibility of a quarantine. Now going with “travel advisories”.

Cuomo is an absolute idiot. Good, let them die if that is what they want. We don’t have to let them into our states if they are from NY or NJ. All those stinking liberals. They think they have all the answers. They don’t. They will kill themselves. Fine by me, I don’t give a dang about them. They don’t like people from my part of the country and I surely don’t give a good stinking dang about them. To heck with them. Stinking communists. I spent the entirety of my military career in defense of this Republic from the stinking communists. Now we have them right here in our back yards. Seems like time to lock and load and be prepared to defend yours and your family from these a-holes. Because they want everything we own, our guns, our money in taxes, our rights, everything under their control. The Good Book says this was what was going to happen and it is now happening. He has already dropped the strong derision upon their heads. They are yelling peace and safety, and the sudden destruction He said would be soon falling on this unrepentant world’s head is near!!! Be prepared folks. Be prepared.

FUAC Yet the U.S.S.A. - United Socialist States of America can quarantine their own slaves in an effort to bring about the toppling of the republic without regard to the rest of the citizens?

The DESTRUCTION of the republic continues, unabated.
