i unironically support his efforts, and when they sue him and win it'll all work itself out

private hospitals can cut hours and close up wings if they dont have the gear to continue working safely

public hospitals don't have that option

it's not a good situation, but they already fucked it up so badly that whatever it takes to fix it is, in my humble opinion, up to the governor and not really anyone else

whatever it takes to fix it is

Full stop. No. Please read the bill of rights because clearly you need a refresher. These were not written with any form of asterisk saying "Unless there's a pandemic."

The answer to a fucked up problem is not to fuck it up worse. The answer to a fucked up problem is stop fucking lying to people and to focus on the facts. He's already screwed that up throughout this whole ordeal, so maybe he should stop panicking and start listening to the experts.

Right now, he admitted to having unused ventilators so this entire article is a giant fucking lie. If people start justifying his actions like you are unironically doing, then these people will never be held accountable for their actions which have already caused people to die and are continuing to cause more people to die.

What do you think about President Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus? Was that unconstitutional?

Yes. Is that even a question? Even the supreme court ruled that Lincoln didn't have the power to do it.

Was the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act of 1863 Constitutional? Taney's argument was that the President did not have the authority, only congress.

What do you think would have happened to the war effort if Lincoln hadn't suspended speedy trials?

He's taking them from my county and my city to save people from NYC while endangering us.
