In another exhibition of COVID madness, the governor of New York has banned indoor eating in New York City to stem the spread of the virus. However, the state’s own data shows a mere 1.4 percent of COVID-19 cases can be traced to restaurants.
It seems absolutely ridiculous when you think about proximity endeavors. Consider that airplanes, buses and trains have no social distancing at all – while restaurants were only allowed to operate at 25 percent capacity. Now restaurants can have no indoor service.
[New York Post] … In Manhattan, the capital of America’s restaurant business with more places, seats and customers than anywhere else, the new-infection rate is a mere 2.5 percent, compared with 5 percent in the state overall.
Yet absurdly, indoor dining is still allowed in most of the state including in areas with much higher infection rates.
The indoor ban’s the most painful to restaurant workers and to owners who went beyond the last mile to comply with the ever-changing rules for indoor and outdoor dining. (more)
Meanwhile…. Governor Cuomo plans to have a birthday bash:
A big problem is that the government “leaders” don’t fear the people. “When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
You are 100% correct.
That’s because Democrat’s do exactly what they are told to do/think. The rest of us just need a plan or two that will guide us in the direction needed to achieve liberty.
When laws no longer apply to you, there is little to fear.
The Democommunists have used the covid for maximum effect to damage the economy, criticize POTUS handling of it, and “take” the election. I think it’s clear that the long term goal of these continued closings after the election is to get as many people as possible to leave these blue cities so that they take their destructive politics and votes to red areas where they then become purple to blue.
For another example just this week, adding more blue to Texas.

No matter what these devils do, no matter how bad they screw up, they always win or gain advantage. Nanzi and Chuckles will also be bailing them out financially. Rewards for covid fear mongering, economy damage, BLM and Antifa rioting, etc. leading up to the election.
It’s amazing to me when Texans says Texas will never be blue. It’s not just the blue dot if Austin. Every major city in Texas is solid blue and chock full of far left leaning Soros funded mayors and DAs. Chakrabati, the rains behind AOC also hails from Texas (Fort Worth).
The same was said about Georgia. I’ve been watching liberals move into the state for years. We are now blue. The Republicans unfortunately will not win the runoff. Georgia is gone with the wind. Sadly the same is happening all over the south, so yes Texas will fall.
More and more liberals are coming to Texas each time one of these companies move in. The liberals do not leave their politics in California or New York.
That’s what “Build Back Better” means.
So, are these “tickets” for services Cuomo has aready rendered, or for future influence?
You all should read this, it’s frustrating.

Mossyrock WA is open for business.
Wonderful Mayor, Police and people !!!
The entire town of Mossyrock, WA, will be defying Governor Inslee’s lockdown orders (noqreport.com)
It’s worse in Illinois. Indoor dining has been shut down (for a second time) for over a month now. But it gets even crazier…
A few restaurants in the state capital of Springfield were able to put tents outdoors. Of course, dining al fresco in winter is ridiculous. (It’s 36 degrees at 7:30pm.) So they put out propane heaters in their tents.
Now, the fire inspectors are trying to get them shut down for fire code violations! The aldermen are having fits, and trying to reach a compromise with the mayor and fire chief.
Yep, same here. It’s absolute insanity!
Funny how being forced to eat outside in 36 degree temps with no heaters is “for our health”.
No reason NY should enjoy restaurant meals when we here on the left coast can’t. LOL
Many of us don’t live in those hellwholes so we can still enjoy a small amount of social eating, for now (impeachDeWineimpeach).
When all this is over China is going to go on a spending spree buying up all the empty stores and buildings in NYC and turn it into one big Chinatown.
Yes, China and Silicon Valley bigwigs. I read 20% of all current sales are to Silicon Valley businesses.
In 2016, 62% of homebuyers in the six counties which comprise SoCal were Chinese nationals. In 2019, that percentage dropped to just over 40%.
America has been for sale to foreign nationals for decades. In the past, they were usually confined to commercial enterprises. If you were to ask me how to solve this problem of national security, I would say to drag 100 random politicians from those halls into the streets. From there, it is easy to imagine what comes next. The horror is what people wish to ignore. By that very lack of fidelity to the nation, that which they sought to avoid has arrived.
More people need to see comments like this because it’s exactly what China is well-known for doing around the world. It isn’t speculation or conspiracy theory to say that the communists work this way. It’s simply a matter of fact. But the communists in the US cheer for a Chinese takeover. They don’t want to just pack-up and move to China; they want the communists to destroy this country, instead. Typical parasite behavior.
New Yorkers can change it…..or live with it…..their choice…..
It’s not my up to me…..at this time…..but I feel it coming……
I wish everyone……Good luck and Stay safe.
I wonder how many people who either own or work in the resturant business either don’t vote or vote for demonrats? Would be interesting to find out.
I am happy to say that on day one of Herr Wolf’s latest shutdown here in PA, my gym remained open! They just told us to have a mask hanging on our chins just in case someone is snooping around on us.
NYC will be bailed out by our tax dollars – wait and see. That being said these businesses are screwed.
Along with Chicago, LA, SF, Detroit etc etc.
A question regarding Cuomo’s handling of the nursing homes. If it was really as bad as portrayed then why don’t we hear anything about big lawsuits against Cuomo and New York State ?
I think that Killer Cuomo gave everyone including himself and his corrupt government some kind of immunity.
That is correct as far as Nursing home liability. Sorry, no link(s) handy
I think cuomo seized and sealed all the records.
https://khn.org/morning-breakout/in-march-cuomo-quietly-slipped-in-liability-protections-to-shield-hard-hit-nursing-homes-from-lawsuits/
Cuomo said he would give that data after the November election. Yeah, right…
You mean like the MSM…aka fake media report on a real event, something is actually happening?
Shirley you jest!
Pharaohs can shut down anything they want. And around 40-45 Governors, depending on where one draws the line, have declared themselves Pharaoh and abolished such things as the Bill of Rights.
But … but … but … it’s a HEALTH Emergency!!! You know like the planetary HEALTH emergency of Global Warming … Right? Just wait till the CDC shuts down your local petrol station(s). You will all go running to the nearest … essential … Tesla dealership
“Now restaurants can have no indoor service.”
So people will sit outside and freeze to death. We have too many people in this country anyway.
Excellent Point! Reminding us of the CRITICAL HEALTH EMERGENCY of overpopulation! Just WAIT till your local Block Captain/comrade is selecting which citizens are “essential” … and which are “expendable”.
Ohhhhh … you think I speak in hyperbole … and this won’t happen? You know … like Cuomo’s Nursing Home Order that eliminated thousands of “expendable” old people. He saved Obamakkare $ millions !!!
Exactly.
What most people fail to realize is these marxist are so depraved they are looking forward to the day that the population is decimated by more death and destruction…for the planet.
God save us all!
This POS is auditioning for a role in the Chinese mafia
I’m guess like Newsome he is already beholden today them.
When the Biden laptop from hell story broke there was some chatter about Shenanigans in the Finger Lakes area. I haven’t seen much since then but I wonder what Cuomo may have going on there in those businesses he has been luring there with tax breaks.
Can you say Chinese Money Laundering? Sure you can.
Wolverines!!!!!
Life is rapidly imitating art
Breitbart wrote that 10,000 other restaurants in NYC have closed for good. Wouldnt it be just dessert if the caterers for cuomos party were a no show at the last second? What would the fonz say?
Give him hell, NYC!!!
Just like you did with the snitch line, light this tin pot up!
Someone on twitter needs to leave this guy a link to the CTH story on Mossybrook MA. Maybe Sundance can tweet him directly. I’m twitter banned
My wife and I just got back from having dinner at a restaurant here in SoCal that is defying Gruesome Newsom’s lockdown orders. It was kinda fun, reminds me of drinking alcoholic beverages before turning 21.
Ooo??? Where?
Yeah … when eating out has become a “dangerous” “subversive” act … you know we are no longer living in America.
PS … I’ll be in LA for Christmas (driving from China’s N. CA) to visit my grandson and family in defiance of Generalissimo Gavin’s Orders to shelter in place and CANCEL Christmas. Sorry you fascist twit ! Our FANILY will carry on with LIFE as normal and ignore your dystopian nightmare.
Curious as to how many large restaurant chain CEOs will be celebrating ($$) with Cuomo?
Watch as the assets of the independents are scooped-up for pennies on the dollar, allowing the chains to expand on the cheap.
Joining in
Here in the land of JB the Hutt, I actually managed to eat lunch today at the only local place open for dine-in (just on the weekends because the health department is closed) and guess who shows up? The health department. The irony? They sent two inspectors in the same car.
Apparently it’s too dangerous for me to eat in a socially distanced restaurant but not for two inspectors from different households to share a ride to shutdown a socially distanced restaurant… or something. SMH
Our friend in Madison County had tried to stay open during the last shut down. But, he was guilted into staying shut this time. I hope he will defy the governor again. The critical numbers are trending down again and they can have no reason to persecute these businesses if they have no fear tactics.
Even the grinch has a heart, Cuomo does not . Cuomo is an Evil man.
Shame on Henry Winkler
Where worlds collide. Communist/Globalist elites are here and have been for decades as foreign policy clearly shows. Wrapped up in a collective ribbon, sprinkled with stardust and sold off to the greedy and an unsuspecting distracted public as the gift of replacing God with bondage. You’ll own nothing, and be happy.
Diabolical.
I can’t see it happening now. In their lust for power they have openly picked a fight with the Almighty. In this currently unfolding judgment upon them, they arrogantly defy correction and expose themselves to further harsher punishment. Repentance does not appear to be an option offered them, and rightly so. As in times past, they are set as examples to take heed – God decides. Not man.
In the meantime Cuomo and fools like him eat, drink and make merry …
Found your comment in the bin…. 🙁
The bigger economic damage done by Democrat Governors to their state economy the bigger the bailout $$$ check from Biden and Schumer! That’s the plan!
The same people who are forcing us to shut down
and lose our businesses work for the Government
and have never missed a paycheck.
Imagine how different it would be if
every one of these scumbags lost their jobs due to Lockdown.
Teachers especially are demanding that schools be closed
While collecting big paychecks.
This whole thing would end if the rule was if schools were shut down for no in-person schooling, teachers would not get paid.
I don’t understand why you need more than one teacher in the country for each grade level if the learning is on line.
Same goes for college professors. Pick the best one and lay off the rest. Tenure doesn’t count if the position is eliminated.
Dems in power know they can safely control dem run cities with a majority of dem citizens. Too bad for NY and the few conservatives still there. Look at the other poster children–Seattle and Portland. Truth speaks for itself. Would like to see Cuomo try this same edict in a smaller conservative city run city with a majority of conservative citizens. Would be interesting to see what happened–
That’s one way for comrade Commo’s political benefactors to snap up some pricey Manhattan real estate, huh? UN- believable he would do this to the restaurants, after all they’ve been through..
And NOW we have the 95% effective vaccine available in NY state, so what gives? We don’t need to fear that bogeyman virus anymore Commo, get with the times already! We’re done with that sheet.. DONE.
Those that fear COVID can line up for the vaccine and STOP harassing everyone else!
NY should do protest that SOB birthday
It may that it’s these Governors themselves who are the super spreaders! The timeline here doesn’t lie, Gavin.
Andrew cuomo=the worst governor of all time!
Gretchen Whitmer: “Hold my beer.”
Big Gretch has my vote.
Huh? It almost appears as if the NY State Govt. plans to get into the Restaurant, Bar, Personal Care, and Health Club business … and want to crush the competition before they begin Govt. operations … ?
I found that most of the people working in restaurants are either flaming Liberals or Left leaning. So, the Left is eating their own.
Hard for me to feel sorry for Democrats suffering now who voted for Democrats. Then again, the same Democrats who are supposedly suffering don’t have to pay rent. So, they are collecting unemployment while stiffing their landlords.
Not sure who is actually getting the short end of the stick when it comes to NYC right now.
You nailed it!

WE WILL NOT COMPLY
It says this is a “virtual” reception at the top of the announcement/invite.
Still, it’s weird.
And still, it shows the peasants they’re not worthy.
Special guests?? Thought for a minute they were names harvested from dead people voter roles. That’s quite the lineup!! Very old, crusty, boring, past their expiration date group of hollywood oldies.
Never mind that…they’re traitors.
When all these business fail and residents flee I hope some attention is paid to who buys up all the prime real estate at rock bottom prices – will Bezos own NY and CA soon?
Michigan restaurants have been shut down for weeks by our socialist thug governor.
Many will never reopen.
All the subways, sidewalks, hallways and spaces in NYC are virus depositories. There are stairwells in apartment buildings which have never been cleaned. The physics of social distancing is a joke. If I am 2 steps from a person and walk into where he was 2 steps ago, the distancing is negated. Sweeping a floor if mud and dirt was tracked in is not cleaning. Sweeping sidewalks and streets stirs up pathogens.
Let me be the first to mention dogs. They are the Fedex crew to deliver pathogens. Pet hair and fur. Having a mutt shed a virus in an apartment is more efficient than a virus carried on your clothing and shopping bags. They are effective carriers and it has nothing to do with their lungs and not being infected. Pigeons move pathogens. Bird-N-tird Keep sidewalk contamination freshened. So people can do a swell job of tracking into apartments with contaminated shoes.
“sea” gulls, pets, birds will keep spreading and do a great job.
Average female NYC takes a bath three, four, or five times weekly. Rare 7
Almost none wash their hair that often. If your hands touch contamination and you touch your face or hair, you are contaminated. Mask protection for you is gone. Do you want Skippy at Subway to wear a mask and bath with clean underwear (sometimes) but not clean uniform handling your “carry out” ?
I have worn mask in surgery over 15,000 hours. I have always changed from street clothes to clean scrubs outside of surgery and worn surgery shoes we keep in our lockers. Surgery shoes are not washed daily but the floors have fresh disinfectant between every case. Even washed patient hair is not sterile so the site of incision is shaved, before scrubbing and rest of patient covered with sterile drapes.
Sorry i offended rats. They move bugs as do insects.
Now we still have indoor dining and everybody will be dining indoors at their desk and office trash and cleaning crews will be responsible for contamination.
I was born in Manhattan and grew up there. What you say has always been obvious to me. So much of it seems old and dirty. Having said that, I used to work for a hospital and I’ve seen those videos of how contamination spreads through an entire hospital including the surgery theaters. Nothing is really clean. As the kids used to say, “There is fungus, among us.” We just have to do the best we can and move on with life.
Those color coded threat level charts are nothing new. They date back to the Bush years.
Yes, they do. The people scoffed, back then, many of us. Many of the same people are now fooled by the COVID threat.
Another interesting bit of history: masks and those threat charts went hand in hand. The Washington Post told us maybe we should carry one when we left the house.
Remember now? Remember how we were supposed to seal off a room in our house, with duct tape and plastic sheeting?
Does that kind of remind anyone of “PPE” today, and how we can stop a threat by suffocating ourselves and hiding behind plexiglass?
