Summary
Democrats And Leftists Are EXPLOITING The Crisis For Political Power, Many Call For No Free Speech. Democratic mayor of new York City Bill De Blasio recently targeted a minority religious community over their constitutional religious and free speech gathering.
It was a funeral and he targeted thems specifically.
The reason this is so shocking besides the obvious is that several times now New Yorkers have defied lockdown orders and gathered en masse but De Blasio just targets on vulnerable community.
Across the country Republican governors are resisting authoritarian moves while Democrats are embracing them.
While Trump and Bill Barr call for constitutional protections or "liberation" Democrats and leftist tribalists demand more lockdowns amid growing unemployment and pending economic collapse.

| 0:00.0 | In what may be the most shocking and egregious violation of civil liberties, the mayor of New York City |
| 0:07.2 | Bill de Blasio targeted a Jewish funeral and threatened these people with arrests. I'm sorry. |
| 0:13.6 | The Constitution is not suspended. You have a right to peaceably assemble, you have a right to |
| 0:19.1 | practice your religion, and the government doesn't have the ability to threaten you with arrest because of this. |
| 0:25.0 | But I understand we are facing very serious and desperate times, but throughout the whole |
| 0:30.0 | coronavirus pandemic there have been a series of dramatic oversteps and violations of our civil rights. |
| 0:35.8 | Now I certainly understand the importance of social distancing, and I would prefer it. |
| 0:39.6 | You're not going to see me out at one of these protests. But we're seeing a very strange tribal |
| 0:44.4 | distinction between who wants things to be locked down in ways that we aren't legally allowed to |
| 0:50.0 | lock down. I mean, we have a constitution and people who demand the economy be reopened. It's very |
| 0:54.4 | tribal. Right now, media personalities and Democrats are calling for a suspension of civil rights |
| 1:01.9 | in a manner of speaking. Several outlets have said, maybe we do need to curtail free speech. |
| 1:07.6 | Maybe we do need to lock down certain areas so people can't assemble. It's an emergency, of course. |
| 1:13.0 | It's for your safety. People such as Bill Gates have come out praising China. Now it's not just the |
| 1:18.9 | media. It's not every single person in media. It's not every single Democrat. There is some crossover. |
| 1:24.6 | We've seen some pretty ridiculous statements from some Republicans as well, but there is a tendency. |
| 1:29.6 | Many of the states that never locked down had Republican governors in South Dakota. People actually |
| 1:35.2 | organized a parade for the governor because she refused to lock down and guaranteed civil rights. |
| 1:41.1 | There's a serious challenge here. We have a pandemic. We don't want to get sick. People should |
| 1:45.2 | social distance. I don't think it's actually quite wrong of these protesters going out |
| 1:50.4 | demanding the economy be reopened to not wear masks and not social distance. But you know what? |
