Why don't you read me the part of the First Amendment that you say gives Trump the authority?

Amendment I Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Thank you, loosegoose. Good post, though I think Trump's using the JD to fight for churches may itself be a violation of the First Amendment. I expect the Supreme Court might just toss this one to the states.
Of course, the courts won't have the matter settled until after the election. Canny politics, actually. Cynical, though.

What if I see fit to yell "fire!" in a crowded theatre? Or slander somebody?
The First Amendment is not a guarantee of freedom of however you want to worship, no matter how dangerous it is to others.
The amendments to the Constitution aren't absolutes. What about the churches that want to ingest peyote? Jim Jones's church?

Every state is different. The virus has impacted states differently. The impact is not uniform across the country.
That being the case, why shouldn't the question of whether to open churches and other places with crowds be a state issue?
What happened to states' rights, you Southerners?

The amendments to the Constitution aren't absolutes. What about the churches that want to ingest peyote? Jim Jones's church? Jim Native American tribes can ingest peyote for religious purposes. cite ONE instance where the supreme court has upheld a prohibition of peaceable assembly, or the free exercise of mainstream religious freedom? Jim Jones is a poor example (and you should know better)….the crime was committed at the end of the situation, and was NOT a part of the everyday "services".

Someone show me what gives Trump the authority.
Jim He doesn’t really have the authority to tell governors what to do, but he does have the authority to turn the Justice department loose on the States for 1st amendments infringement. Also he’s not pandering for votes. Trump has the uncanny ability to read the pulse of America. Love him or hate him it’s undeniable. I think it’s manly do to the fact that he’s not a politician.
Everything the left touches it destroys
