A slight shift in this COVID compliance and resistance example. The California state regulatory authorities raid a beauty salon citing COVID compliance demands; however, the local authorities refuse to cooperate with the state intent.
Pomp Hair Salon in Stockton California was raided by state officials who cited the salon for continuing operations [media story here]. The subsequent misdemeanor citation comes from the state. However, local law enforcement and county prosecution say they will not participate in the enforcement mechanism.
This creates an unusual dynamic as the state has threatened to revoke licenses for the salon and the workers; but what “enforcement” action could the state undertake?
The issues highlighted here cover more than hair salons. Restaurants and bars are facing similar threats from regulatory agencies: Dept of Health, Bureau of Alcohol, etc. It is the regulatory issue that keeps many business owners in fear of defying COVID lock-downs.
If local officials break from state regulatory and compliance demands, there’s no precedent for what enforcement action a state might attempt to take unilaterally.
Would ideologically prone state governors attempt to send State Police to enforce their unilateral fiats and face a showdown with local law enforcement?
It is into this dynamic when everyone should remember the County Sheriff is the highest constitutional officer in the region. A county sheriff can nullify any outside law enforcement agency by simply not complying. This is a well known issue inside law enforcement.
This takes the blue state (totalitarianism) -vs- red state (freedom/liberty) issue into a more granular distinction. Within the Blue States there are likely to be contests of power between local and state officials. It is an interesting dynamic.
Meanwhile… Thanks to Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida is leading the way in allowing local jurisdictions and individual businesses to make up their own mind about what COVID mitigation efforts best suit their constituents and customers. This approach puts the accountability on the local officials who are closest to the voices of those who live there.
Until now we have noted blue state citizens fleeing the totalitarian states for red state places where freedom is more pronounced. However, with this internal regulatory issue highlighted, there may be regional moves within a state where citizens migrate in-state to areas where they are able to live with greater liberty.
The local -vs- state enforcement activity is an interesting dynamic to keep watching.
SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY, Calif. (KTXL) — A Stockton hair salon that was the focus of an enforcement visit for COVID-19 restrictions by the Department of Consumer Affairs will not be facing any charges from the county.
The San Joaquin County District Attorney said they, “as well as local law enforcement”, had no involvement in the incident.

Disabled child removed by police from AMC theater for failing to wear a mask
The toddler reportedly has a condition that prevents her from using a mask or face shield
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/coronavirus/disabled-child-removed-police-amc-theater-failing-wear-mask
AMC theaters are owned and controlled by the communist Chinese so that would explain that.
https://www.cnbc.com/2017/05/11/10-iconic-american-companies-owned-by-chinese-investors.html
This was back in 2017. I am certain they own much, MUCH more now.
I have the same condition. Bad case of Americanism.
A sad situation in CA and other blue states, but some red states are also imbibing in the tyranny trough. Push back at the point of conflict and rag on your representatives. Replace all tyrants by either recall or election.
Has the 2020 presidential election taught you nothing? There will not be any electing of anyone who is not in alignment with the New World Order globalists.
Yes, Dewine in Ohio has been tyrannical. There’s a lawsuit out there (Dr. Pam Popper involved) and apparently they are teaming up with people in New Mexico. https://www.ohiostandsup.org/
Gov DeSantis seems to be the only one onto the scam–seemed like he woke up when he saw the CDC survival rate data. He ignored Fauci and met with his own medical experts (epidemiologists with the Great Barrington Declaration), who recommended protect the vulnerable, and let the healthy get back to living. DeSantis has already said he won’t lock down again, and stated that restaurant and bar workers have a right to earn a living. Plus he seems onto the PCR scam because he’s demanding the labs release the data on numbers of cycles of amplification. If only others would follow his example!!!
Damn proud of my governor here in the Gunshine State. Easily a candidate for president.
It’s time. Keep it up, they can’t throw all of us in jail.
Reminds me of the old story of a bully who asks, “Who said/did that?” and everyone in the room steps forward to claim the offending behavior.
We are coming to a point where we all participate in the civil disobedience and humiliate the oppressors.
I am Spartacus.

Didn’t the owner donate to the Democrats this year? Just wondering. Why aren’t all those Democrat establishments (salons, restaurants, etc.) that the politicians go to being raided and fined?
My wife’s Vietnamese hairdresser in OC was shutdown for four months and hates Gavin Newsom but voted straight Democrat on election as always!
If anyone would recognize Communism you would think that a Vietnamese would.
Reaping and sowing
That’s surprising. The Vietnamese community is very pro Trump here.
Love to hear that. They get the government they deserve. And after decades of apathy- they now find themselves with that shtshow and their overlords.
Biden’s gonna save us- said nobody ever.
Yep, and “local non-enforcement” is true in many places. You might get some static from a Karen or an employee, but the vast majority leave you alone.
I carry one in my pocket. If the cashier is older, I put it on when I check out. (especially if they ask) We win more converts when we pick our spots. I try not to antagonize people making minimum wage.
I think it helps to understand how afraid people are of their government right now. Often, the intended message behind these news reports isn’t “people fighting back”, it’s “if you speak up, you’ll get raided by the police state.” They’re afraid for their jobs too. Important to be friendly about it.
Be sure to buy local too.
Recently, in Oklahoma City, bar owners got together to sue the city/state for requiring closure at 11 p.m. each evening.
Judge asked what law was used as the authority for this dictate.
Answer: 1960’s state legislation related to riots.
Judge: “nope!” (**all of this also happens alongside the 24 hour casinos that serve food, drink and booze –that are exempt from the order, BTW.)
So,…
Mayor David Holt (dude who cries during his press conferences) issues a warning to said bar owners:
Maybe the city has to allow you to open, but…
BEWARE of the evil State of Oklahoma that might revoke your license.
Maybe, the good people of California should go this same route.
Obama DemScum judge I bet
Business licensing is a scam anyway. It’s just a tax. It has no bearing on whether or not you run a safe business or make a good product. A business license is a tax stamp. If there was no business licensing, no business would miss a beat.
Paying the fines will just become a cost of doing business…extra taxes. Put a 5% “COVID Bureaucrat Fee” on the tab to cover your fines. Tell customers they’re helping you stay open, and the government is coding these new taxes on them.
I mentioned forming a class-action lawsuit to my local (Ohio) House rep. Got no response. I’m paying for 24 hr access to a gym, however, I’m not able to go whenever I want to (thanks DeWine), yet I’m still paying full price. Local bar/restaurant owners pay extra to be able to serve past 10 pm here, yet they have received no refund/compensation for their monies lost.
“The local -vs- state enforcement activity is an interesting dynamic to keep watching.”
This dynamic is the reason why they pre-planned defunding the police departments.
The point I have been trying to make to my compadres. Take away local police and replace them with State, or more likely Federal. Brown shirts and jack boots follow shortly.
There are more of us than them. Latest estimates show Trump supporters hold 300 million+ 2nd Amendment Sticks.
Melbourne COVID patient with sepsis makes ‘remarkable’ recovery following megadose of vitamin C

Good article, amazing actually.
But good luck finding an MD willing to give intravenous Vitamin C to Covid/Sepsis patients in the USA!
The legal-financial risks to a doctor bypassing Big Pharma and the FDA can be career threatening.
Dr Paul Marik ICU specialist does.
He is originally from South Africa, now at EVMS pioneered the HAT sepsis treatment some years ago-

I seem to recall back in the early days of the covid madness that the FBI raided, I want to say, a facility in MA, could be wrong on the state – for treating people with intravenous Vitamin C.
I use lipid lmao VC. It gets more VC into your cells than IV does. It also doesn’t upset the digestive system.
That should be “liposomal”. Spell check isn’t always correct.
Maybe somebody should start making their own, like the street pharmacists in East St Louis & North St Louis who kill people every day with their killer chinese fentanyl.
They are on the street all the time.
Who could cook up some black market vitamin C infusions? I know a lot of girls who can start IVs…
If you haven’t seen this yet, it’s worth the 2 minutes. (Young woman objects to mask because asymptomatic spread is not a thing.)

Glad to see the local sherifs stepping up in California. Elsewhere, it’s not all oranges and sunshine in the sunshine state. The city of Key West is seizing full control and locking everyone down for New Years. Whereas, whereas, whereas the CDC say this and the CDC say that…….. Desantis is doing the right thing, but the Blue in Key West just won’t stop. They are crushing the only real industry they have – tourism which is a bunch of small businesses.

Hey! Gavin!
My wife and I traveled from N.CA to S.CA over the Christmas Holiday to stay with my daughter, and our first grandson (11 mos. old and walking like a pro). We also spent time with my son and his SO. And! We spent Christmas Eve with my sister in law’s family and played a fun online game … ate a lovely dinner and have a ball.
Well, Gavin … there was one “legal” thing we did … we took our 11 mo. old boy to the Park! You made parks “legal” … right? Never mind that the Park was the MOST dangerous thing we did all trip … because the
Ark was PACKED with lots of children and their parents.
Gavin … I will NEVER “obey” your unconstitutional FARCE of shut-downs and shut-ins. Your overcrowded ICU claims are rubbish. Multiple working doctors have confirmed this. You and your “Health Officials” are LIARS. You will be ignored.
The Wuhan restrictions are the direct result of Politicians that have not performed their Constitutional duties since the FDR New Deal. They have seceded their responsibilities to the New Left and an ever growing Administrative State. Our western societies are now governed by “experts” in alphabet agencies and no longer by the common sense of We the People.
Gov. Newsom wants to make sure that California gets a big fat $100 billion bailout check from Biden just like New York so he’s got to get the economic destruction and death toll numbers up!

Resist and defy. Withdraw your consent to be governed. When millions of people find the same courage, the state will have to comply. They work for us- not the other way around.
This is what happens when a government loses the consent of the governed.

The tyrants must be stopped. All businesses should fling open their doors and defy Grabbin’ Gruesome and his un-legislated mandates. Its all illegal.
Over 4 years now and we are still hearing Russia-Russia, the latest lie was a hack (that didn’t happen) but Trump supposedly ignored. 4 years Treepers. Do you think these bastards are gonna quit with the Covid-19 bullshit ? They plan to carry this crap on for years and years until small businesses back’s are broken. Step up, defy, give them the finger. Open up, there’s so many more of us than them.
Anyone remember, you know, the thing called ‘The Spirit of America’ ?
1COR 1:10 I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree together, to end your divisions, and to be united by the same mind and purpose.
1COR 2:16 But the unspiritual man simply cannot accept the matters which the Spirit deals with—they just don’t make sense to him, for, after all, you must be spiritual to see spiritual things. The spiritual man, on the other hand, has an insight into the meaning of everything, though his insight may baffle the man of the world. This is because the former is sharing in God’s wisdom, and ‘Who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?’ Incredible as it may sound, we who are spiritual have the very thoughts [mind] of Christ!
If God is for us, who can be against us ?
God cannot lie. Trust God. Fear not.
Freedom is Ours.
I just saw an article on Complete Colorado dot com-page 2 where the Larimer County Public Department of Health-Environment sent a letter that threatened to fine an elementary school child 5,000 dollars and jail because the child was SUSPECTED of something like not isolating itself enough after a classmate, maybe, tested positive for the China Virus. I can’t read the actual PDF of the letter in the article and it happened in November but.
The Sheriff of Larimer County has said he will not enforce such an order but the fact the unelected bureaucrats felt arrogant enough to even send the thing is evidence of how imperial TPTB consider themselves.
Isn’t it funny how the new Covid-19 strain hits as even left leaning state citizens have had enough. Folks, we are living in the matrix. Politicians just want our hard earned money and since China owns so much of our country they are bowing to their masters wishes.
