SCOTUS TELLS GOVERNOR CUOMO TO SHOVE HIS EDICT UP HIS ASS

by Bob Walsh

SCOTUS voted 5-4 yesterday to invalidate Governor Cuomo's edict telling churches that they have to limit attendance due to the plague.  As one might expect  new justice Amy Comey Barret voted on the side of the angels.  

I wonder how psychotic Cuomo will get over it?  Should be fun to watch.  Maybe he will foam at the mouth, or at least blow turkey gravy out his nose.

Governor Cuomo on Thursday brushed off the Supreme Court's ruling against him to side with Christian and Jewish groups, and said the decision was 'moot' because they're no longer under COVID-19 restrictions.

On a call with reporters on Thursday, Cuomo brushed off the ruling. He said it was 'practically ineffective' because the churches and synagogues it applies to are no longer subject to restrictions anyway because their COVID cases have gone down. 

'The ruling doesn't have any practical effect,' he said, because they still have to stick to the city-wide rule of limiting religious services to just 50 percent.

'The lawsuit was about the Brooklyn zone, it no longer exists as a red zone. That's mooted- that restriction is not in effect. 

'That's why the whole case was moot - that's what was irregular about the Supreme Court taking it up since the situation presented no longer exists,' he said.
