Baack to work on April 30th, if you still have work. But they might still push that back, so you might not have to go back to work at all!

But it is also how things should be. I am annoyed by the idea the governor has such power, but if he does, it should be for short terms, and then the legislature should be called to ratify or deny the orders.

In Virginia, our entire existence apparently is at the whim of our governor, who only has to declare an “emergency”.

ANd we know what that means, because in January, he declared an “emergency” which was “people are coming to protest our legislation”, and with that declaration, he was then able to take away people’s right to assemble, and people’s right to bear arms, and courts backed him up.

Right she wanted 70 days, she will not let that go and if she gets another month every resteraunt will be bankrupt. I caught some of her remarks she has no sympathy for the dying businesses, none. She is more worried about it being unfair to her base in Detroit if she loosens it up at all for the rest of the State. It is absolutely ridiculous that the UP is locked down. Thank you morons for giving the rats the Governor , the AG and the SOS.

In Louisiana, our governor is legally bound by an exclusion clause in the emergency powers law. So far, the courts have remained supine, but the legislature is organizing to fight back, I think. The main pushback has been that Pentecostal preacher in Baton Rouge.

http://legis.la.gov/legis/Law.aspx?d=85685
LA R.S. 29:736(D):

“D. Nothing in this Chapter shall be interpreted to diminish the rights guaranteed to all persons under the Declaration of Rights of the Louisiana Constitution or the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution. This Chapter shall not violate Article II (Distribution of Powers), Article III (Legislative Branch), or Article V (Judicial Branch) of the Louisiana Constitution. The courts shall be open, and every person shall have an adequate remedy by due process of law and justice, administered without denial, partiality, or unreasonable delay, for injury to him in his person, property, reputation, or other rights. The orders of all courts shall have their full force and effect. The legislature may call itself into session at any time and shall exercise its powers and duties. Its ability to enact law, appropriate funds, and confirm appointees shall be in full force. The privileges and immunities of legislators shall be respected.”
Acts 1993, No. 800, §1, eff. June 22, 1993.

Occasionally (not always) the camera captures EVIL...the psychopath’s coldness...the no compassion face. When that slips by go to the WORDS (lies or antagonisms..”bitter clingers”...now that face didn’t slip by you I hope). When both slip by go to the DEEDS. Sometimes they all slip by and YOU’RE raped or dead. The face is sometimes more revealing than other times...Manson, Khomeini, etc., etc.

Barack & Michelle, Hillary & Bill, Soros, Cuomo, Strzok, Brennan, Pelosi, Jarrett, Feinstein, Omar, Haley Stevens, Schumer, Yates, Gretchen Whitmer, Barr, Durham, Ted Bundy, (an old acquaintance Rick, a current acquaintance Ron), Stalin, Hitler, Greta, etc., etc.

The most EVIL administration in the history of this great republic BY FAR.

Barack & Michelle Obama, Biden, Clinton, Holder, Lerner, Lynch, Brennan, Comey, Strzok, Paige, Jarrett, Yates, etc., etc. downstream including Jon Gruber, Zeke Emanuel, John Holdren, etc., etc.

ALL said ARROGANTLY...(Without a peep from “representation”)

” WE are 5 days away from fundamentally TRANSFORMING the United States of America”, “bitter clingers”, “you didn’t build that”, “CHARTER OF NEGATIVE LIBERTIES”, “deplorables” “we came, we saw, he died,” “IF THE PROSECUTOR’S NOT FIRED, YOU’RE NOT GETTING THE BILLION DOLLARS”, “she’ll cut off your head and you won’t even know you are bleeding” etc., etc., etc., etc.

WE THE PEOPLE are still reeling from the effects of these CRIMINALS. OUR children are, too. Witness current events.

https://usdebtclock.org Examine the debt before and after that administration.

NONE ARE BEHIND BARS. No justice, no republic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcsvE1zv1ek

ZERO...adios republic. Nobody can recover from such CRIMINALITY with a PROPAGANDA MACHINE unparalleled in human history.

Not to mention the...Declaration of MORE Debt Slvavery that proud CONgre$$ was too afraid to affix their signatures to.

A state legislator in Michigan was going downhill really fast from CV19 she had been to her doctor several times he prescribed several different medications nothing was working, she heard Trump during his presser called her doctor he prescribed it immediately THEN because her stupid damn governor put a ban on anyone using it Pharmacy would not fill the prescription. Her husband drove out of state to fill the script brought it home and within hours she was better!! She was very close to being hospitalized couldn’t breath at all and she has stated Trump saved her life, her STUPID governor damn near killed her!!! This legislator is a Dem and has thanked Trump for saving her life!!!

Opening of session with hymn rather than invocation.

The hymn, "It Is Well With My Soul" (Horatio Spafford, Phillip Paul Bliss, 1876) was inspired by the sinking of the French ocean liner Ville du Havre in 1873. Bliss, who wrote the music, was killed in a train wreck shortly afterwards. Spafford, a businessman who lost his family in the sinking, later moved to Jerusalem to become a missionary.

Then there is the feckless GOP who let the Rats put FOUR high Dem turnout ballot proposals on the November ballot when they could have put them in the August primary election.
