Forbidding gatherings without a valid state of emergency.

Trump declared a state of emergency in March.

Arresting people for not wearing masks.

What are they charged with?

This isn’t hard. A gov is not allowed to violate the US constitution.

Agreed. But are they violating it? That would be a matter for the courts.

So far, courts (except PA) are supporting the people.

Trump’s state of emergency is questionable in terms of its application to states.

They are arresting people for violating the governor’s orders, I guess. It’s happening a lot. Check out the stories.

I think the whole social distance crap is a violation of 5th amendment rights.
