Dem Governors Face Dozens of Lockdown Lawsuits
All have used the pandemic as a pretext for curtailing constitutional rights.
The lockdown order issued by Gov. Walz isn’t limited to violations of the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of the plaintiffs — it’s utterly incoherent.
Worshipers across Minnesota have been prohibited from assembling to celebrate Easter and the Passover, while liquor stores have remained open. Target, Walmart, Walgreens, and CVS are open, while local Hallmark stores are closed. Golf courses and bait shops are open, but indoor amusement facilities are shut. Nobody can legally get a haircut, but dogs may now be groomed. Businesses in Minnesota have been forced to carry rent obligations … without income.
As the above excerpt from the lawsuit renders obvious, the lockdown order issued by Gov. Walz isn’t limited to violations of the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of the plaintiffs — it’s utterly incoherent. What were these people on when they made the decision to forbid haircuts yet permit pet grooming?
All of these defendants have four things in common: They are Democratic governors, they have used the COVID-19 pandemic as a pretext to arrogate illegitimate authority, none will voluntarily relinquish their newfound power, and all have committed multiple violations of the Constitution. By the standards of the above-quoted aphorism, all have been found sorely wanting in the kind of character intrinsic to genuine leaders. All deserve the utter contempt of the voters who elected them to office.
