Theaters followed. Hospitals were allowed to perform all needednd surgeries. They could stop pretending that the coronavirus was the only medical problem that patients faced. Its not. There is something especially radical about what georgia dated, but you would not know that if you were watching television that week. The decision was described as the most reckless Public Health decisions since 9 out of 10 Family Doctors endorsed camel cigarettes. Saying that people would die because georgia was reopening. Flattened by a tidal wave of corpses. It was that dangerous. Even stacy abrams took a break from campaigning for Vice President to offer an assessment. We honestly dont understand, the mayors of our largest cities who all expressed deep concern as our scientists. This makes no sense, and it puts more georgians at risk. T tucker yeah, she seems to know what she is talking about. You should know that stacy abrams is delusional, at one point she announced that she was the governor of georgia, which from a Mental Health standpoint is one step from claiming napoleon. Now she imagines she is a Public Health expert. Best to humor her on that. Just nod and look interested. Chris hayes is not a scientist either. He is the art into male feminist. But he is still a strong view on epidemiology. He was so upset by the view that people in georgia might go outside of that permission though that he suddenly found himself arguing that everybody must obey the Trump Administration. If that sounds insane to you, you are not alone. And for the record, georgia does not meet the white house guidelines. It does not have a 14 day trajectory of declining cases. It is tested less than 19,000 people in a population of more than 10 million. Mayors in georgia are describing the governors decision as reckless, dangerous, and illogical. Tucker there voice of overpriced brooklyn. We must do what the white house tells us he screams. On msnbc. Thats how dangerous it was. Mark this day rode one longtime washington reporter, because two and three weeks from now,te thoh georgia death toll is blood on governor brian kemps hands. As it happens, we did in fact mark that day. It was april 25th, 2020 when the reopenings began. A that day georgia had 615 new cases of coronavirus. Yesterday, 18 days later, georgia had a total of 555 cases of coronavirus. Infections and death in georgia have been declining since early april. Thats why they began to reopen. There still sick people in the state. There will be for a while. Some will die. But as of tonight, georges numbers, the actual numbers are no worse than the national average. S that tells us a lot. We should be thrilled by this news, because it suggests that america can begin to return to normal, restoring rights stolen from the population, may be treat citizens like adults once again and not court medical disaster. He would think our leaders would be racing to the podium to share this great news. But of course going for the virus, life will never go back to normal. Never. It is likely that there never will be a cure for the coronavirus. Not asking questions about it, she endorsed the whole thing. Because there are a lot of people in Los Angeles County that are saying, whoa, three more months, i cant survive this. I have a small business, i cant survive this as someone who is out of work. Of course i agree with the decisions of the people on the ground in that particular venue and location. So yes, it is inconvenient, but it is even more inconvenient if youre going to be infected or worse. Tucker yeah, it is in communion. Yeah, it is inconvenient. But not as inconvenient as getting infected with a deadly disease says pelosi. Its a good talking point, hat tip to the 16yearold staffer who rode it. But as a factual matter, it is wrong. For the overwhelming majority of americans, the lockdowns are far worse than getting sick with the wuhan coronavirus. If you are under 60, the odds of dying from the virus are fewer t than one end of 1,000. Probably less than one in one in 10,000. The government lockdowns are making them poor and destroying your life, those chances are far higher than that. Ask yourself how many healthy middleaged people do you know who have died from the virus. Maybe you know someone. How many people do you know that are now unemployed and terrified of the future . Probably a lot. Washington governor jay inslee, not a math guy. He is not calculating the probability is like this, but he apparently believes that everyone in Washington State faces the real likelihood of dying from the virus. L thats why he has ordered officials in the state to track who goes to restaurants and who they eat with. Because that is not a Chinese Police state tactic or anything. Contact tracing, obviously if you have somebody who become sick and they wereou sitting rit next to a person at a restaurant to be able to identify that person could be very valuable for their health to try to save their life. And so, we put that in place. Tucker it is kind of weird that the authorities are taking notes on who you are having dinner with, but it is for the Public Health, so submit. Its not like politicians would ever misuse that information or anything. So sleep well, and dont forget to send in a blood sample so that the government can see your dna for health reasons. No one in america is enjoying this more than Gretchen Whitmer. Always the most mediocre people who love fascism the most. It gives them power they never thought they would have and do not deserve. She wants this moment to last forever. She is enraged that anyone would dare to complain about it. She went on abc yesterday and dismissed any citizen who disagrees with her, needless to say, as a racist. And then she promised the disobedient citizens in michigan will be punished with even more severe lockdowns. These have been really political rallies where people come with confederate flags, and not see symbolism, calling for violence, this is racist and misogynistic. And i ask that everyone who has a platform uses it to call on people to observe the best practices promulgated by the cdc and stop encouraging the behavior, because it only makes it that much more precarious for us to try to reengage the economy, which is what everybody says they want us to be able to usdo. Tucker yeah, not only is it racist, but it is dangerous to the Public Health and racist. She was later asked if she had evidence, proof that protesters were actually spreading the virus, and he will be surprised to learn, she didnt. And by the way, that question is misogynistic, so shut up. Some people in michigan are finally growing tired of this performance. Carl menke owning a barbershop would like to continue cutting hair. But authorities will not let him do that. They want to send in welfare checks instead. Thats not the country he wants to live in though. I am 77, i have always worked. I have never lived for a handout spread i dont even know what they are. I have some of the call me and say, why did you not get on food stamps . Well, i dont want food stamps. I want to work. When our governor said, you know, we will have another 28 days, that took me to my knees. I cannot take another 20 days. All of us as americans need to take responsibility forsp ourselves. The government is not my mother, never has been. As a matter of fact, this administration for the most part, i have been in business longer than they have been alive. Tucker Gretchen Whitmer was not amused by that. The governor is not my mom. Misogyny. And by the way, cutting here is racist. So her administration tried to shut him down with a court order, because there is nothing going on in michigan right now. But the judge resisted that it is too far. So the lack he certainly redacted his barbers license. Now he is shut down for good and will be even when the lockdown is finally ended. That will show him her to stop whining take your will lf welfare check, big it. This is insanity. And we will look back and shame. Politicians will see the maximum amount of power they can. Thats why they went into politics and the first place. The question is for the rest of us. Why are we allowing this to happen . We are joined by judge andrew napolitano. Thank you so much for coming on. I mean, there does seem to be a point where the power they are exercising is so illegitimate, people should Say Something about it, no . Yes, profoundly people should Say Something about it. Yesterday the Supreme Court of wisconsin did. What it said to the governors people, you do not have the authority for the lockdown, only the legislature does. And it has told us that they do not want u it. You cannot write your own laws and enforce them to the constitution. By the way, the american constitution for the lockdown is ending. Dont expect the same thing that happened in michigan with tucker. The definition of a free state is one where the laws are written toar uphold personal liberties. The definition of a police state is one where the laws are written legitimately or not to uphold what the government ones. We are not gradually, all of a sudden in a period of six weeks going from a free state where this is happening in all 50 states to a police state. The example you just cited in michigan is a violative not only of michigan law in michigan i constitution, but the american constitution as well. She cant take it away from him, because he spoke out against h her. Thats what the fascists did that we fought against in world war ii. Tucker and governed by the rest of us, they expect the population to obey as if it was law, which it is not. But at the same time, continuing to pay taxes and abide by the licensing schemes, et cetera. At what point are people justified in saying, you know, if you are not going to governn legitimately, maybe i dont need a license to run my barbershop . Well, civil disobedience is probably the next step if these governors do not come to a sense of reason, tucker. Because the authority that they are enacting is absolutely illegitimate. So you talk about jay inslee in washington, as we speak, he is beginning to open up restauran restaurants. But his Health Inspectors will tell the owners of those restaurants, we need the name and address of everybody in here if you dont give it to us, we will take away your Liquor License or we will take away your license to own the restaurant. What do you do when they ask you for your name and address . You have no obligation to give that to them whatsoever. You have no obligation to give them any Credit Information or personal information about you. And the government has no right to collect that. They will try to do it. And they will not do it by enacting legislation that was written by the representatives that we sent they are, but will do it by unaccountable, unelected Health Inspectors. Tucker they will use the regulatory state to bolster their power. At the least democratic means of doing it. D that is the sub feat in. Thank you for reminding us of that. Insanity finally does return to the country, and we are hoping it comes soon. And using it rationally, yesterday will likely be seen as a turning point for the better. Last night a short video appeared on the internet, not produced by epidemiologist, but shot on an iphone and a kitchen by a guy who runs a sport site. But in 3 minutes and 37 seconds, of barstools sports showed the lockdown strategy. Here is part of it. What the [bleep] is going on . When was this flatten the curve, flatten the curve, till we have to find a cure, or everyone isat going to die. Find a cure . Who says we are going to find a cure . People have mentally prepared, we are doing what you asked. We are doing what you said. Now youre changing the rules. Tucker and barely 24 hours, that clip, which you should look up before it is pulled down has been viewed close to 5 million times. We are happy to have him join us tonight. What inspired you to do this . To make this video . If we are being honest, tucker, i have been in the stock market, it tanked. Im basically on fauci going before the senate and talking about the future and to the ela mayor saying he was going to lock the city down until they found the cure. So i am in new york city in the heart of it. Ive been inside. Y ive not gone outside in months. And to me, new york city is kind of had corona fatigue. The rest of the country, but everybody is trying to do their best, staying inside. Social distance, flatten the curve, flatten the curve. Thats kind of the culmination of the hearings or the senate, and the l. A. Mayor, that to me came out of left field. I had not been hearing that. We were all i felt like there mawas a collective pause and vie in the country. Especially new york. We are getting close. We are getting close. We are getting closer every update seemed more positive. There were open beds, people were you are not hearing though Horror Stories anymore. And then this comes out of left field, like we are no closer than we were two months ago it seems. And at this point, you know, i started barstool 17 years ago, and just at rand, and it really was political, and should not be left or right. If you gave me the choice, it took me ten years, a decade of working almost 24hour days. No saturation to turn the corner and become successful, if corona hits at that moment, i wouldve been out of business. And everything that i worked, the ten years gone. Flushed down the toilet. At the very least, and barstool is going to make it. Thank god. We are in good shape. But a lot of people arent. And at the very least, they should have the option, i dont know what to believe. But you hit different things. Wear a mask, dont wear a mask. I think most doctors, fauci is even like, its a new disease. We dont know what we are dealing with, fine, give me the choice then. Let me go outside and risk potentially getting sick, or do i want to ruin my business . Because if it was me, i would rather die from corona then have to start over working 9 to 5, how are you going to get a job . How do you put money on your familys table when the economy will be gone . That was the reason for the rant, at the very least i feel bad for people who arent given the choice, what is worst . Losing my business, my livelihood, or the chance of getting the disease . Which we honestly know so little about, i feel like. We are nowh closer. Thats what i think the problem is. Tucker you have been attacked as some kind of science denier for putting this on the internet. Pretty bitterly. Whole piece about how you are wrong. But you have taken it seriously from the beginning. You have been indoors for months. Its not like you denied the reality of the disease. Tucker, a week ago i said everybody, i did the same exact rant except it was about masks. And a lot of people on the right would describe, hey, everybody wear masks,he you know why, because if there is a. 0001 chance that somehow helps and gets people back to work, then throw it on. Theres nothing to lose. So ive been on both sides. Im not trying to make and by the way, the forbes guy, i have not seen the article, he sent me an email 5 minutes before it came on and said, basically everything you said was garbage. U th you want to defend yoursel . But apparently it already went to print. Tucker it went to print hours ago, thats kind of the way it works. Sorry about that. Nascar apparently is going back online on sunday, at darlington, i think. I know you are a nascar fan, do you think other professional sports will soon come back . Should they . It sounds like they are. The hold up in baseball sounds more about the money side of it, but the nfl, i think they will. And i havee had my differences with roger goodell, i dont know if you have heard, but i am going to spend monday night football in his basement with him. Tucker he is submitting. Roger goodell, he does not care about anything. Hehe need be may be the guy that gets back in the street. Tucker thats probably good news. Plan now that you have been held up and express to your frustration that you think the policies are stupid, which they are. How are you going to live Going Forward . The crazy thing is this is not about me personally. I feel bad Walking Around and seeing all of these restaurants, youre starting to see signsar saying we are not coming back. And the crazy thing is if you go for a walk on the hudson river, like today when it is 75, there are tons of people outside. So the policies arent necessary keeping people inside, its keeping businesses closed. And by the way, if lord is open in new yorkse is closed, guess what, im going to florida and then i am coming back to new york and lots of people will do that. So the whole thing is not going to work. The policies are flawed regardless of how you look at it. If you want everybody workingan together. Tucker a lot of people are not coming back to new york. I dont know if they get that yet. Thank you so much for this. You look great for a man who has been in quarantine. Thank you, i still have the purplele sweatpants on. Tucker they must be pretty rank at this point. Good to see you. Yesterday we learned that the Obama Administration was running an effective domestic spying operation and Michael Flynn was one of their targets. The media receive this news today in anger, not because it was such an obvious abuse of power, but because you now know about it. And you are not supposed to. Well tell you what they said next.
