While urging Californians to stay united and promising “we will get back to the life that we have lived,” Newsom also acknowledged much is unknown and so the state is preparing for frightening worst-case scenarios. He put the California National Guard on alert for duties that include humanitarian missions like ensuring proper food distribution and public safety as some grocery stores resorted to rationing to control panic buying.

In readying the National Guard for action, Newsom’s office emphasized that it’s for duties routinely performed during natural disasters and other emergencies. But Newsom grimly added that “we have the ability to do martial law ... if we feel the necessity.”

Imposing martial law would take the extraordinary step of replacing the usual laws with military authority, with the possible suspension of civil liberties like freedom of association and movement.

It is good to know that states rights are being observed. Thank you, President Trump, for announcing the ball in motion. “National Emergency”.

Pretty sure the 25K homeless in San Fran will still be wandering around crapping in the streets .

I hope many disobey.
This is California we are talking about. Almost everybody that lives there are pretty submissive to the government.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. military said Friday it is preparing plans to take over hotels and other buildings if necessary to add to the nation’s supply of hospital rooms, part of its response to the coronavirus emergency.

Pentagon officials detailed the plans as they opened up the range of military capabilities and forces this week, with preparations for deploying thousands of National Guard troops, providing hospital ships and ferrying medical equipment.

The head of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers outlined plans for taking over as many as 10,000 hotel rooms, college dormitories and other spaces in New York to provide medical services to accommodate the exponential increase of virus-related hospitalizations.

Based on a request from state officials and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, which is coordinating the crisis response for the White House, the Corps would forge contracts with hotels, colleges and possibly sports arenas—all of which are largely empty anyway—to begin to transform them into medical facilities, Lt. Gen. Todd Semonite said.

IMO-National Guard should be on the ready in the bigger cities in Cali. We are one PG&E mishap causing a long power outage to cause the shit to absolutely hit the fan in SF and Oakland. My street's power went out because of an underground cable issue last week for 12 hours during Alameda county's lockdown. I had my coolers filled w/ ice and generator on the ready but my neighbors' stress level was noticeably increased...

Think about this. Californians and their elected representatives have stupidly allowed the cities to pander to illegal immigration, along with it taxes too high, homeless populations for decades, peaking due to taxes/extremely high prices....this was in the making , same with NYC. Cities to big to fail now failing, in every way possible.....their governing bodies are desparate right now to prove why they are important and "needed". Governor is trying to prove that hes needed, and that his exercise of power is necessary. THE BEST THING WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW , is to prove that the governors actions are OVERBOARD. We can prove that society can fight a virus, without governors dictating them. In arizona right now we are doing fine, so far we wont escalate lockdowns....or curfew hasnt been used....we will stay open and our numbers are low, and will remain low because arizonans are more spread out, and more able to stay indoors, while they research this and think for themselves. Most people including myself have thought this out , processed the info, and I now conclude it was a chinese bioweapon, and liberals are taking advantage....it was made to remove Hong Kong protestors. the problem now, is China sees how vulnerable we really are now, because liberal cities are crumbling
