Well, Gov. "Malevolent Michelle" Lujan Grisham must be reveling in her recent New Mexico Supreme Court ruling on fines for businesses who defy her health orders.
She is celebrating by extending her health order another 30 days.
El Defensor Chieftain reported:
August presents more of the same for New Mexicans. Last week Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and state health officials extended the state’s emergency public health order for another month and keep intact existing public health restrictions and guidelines while the state continues to combat the spread of COVID-19.
The emergency public health order signed on July 30 will be in effect for 30 days, ending August 28. This means the prohibition on mass gatherings remains in effect, as well as the temporary indoor occupancy restrictions for certain businesses, particularly indoor “close-contact” businesses such as restaurants and gyms.
The extended public health order streamlines the categories of business operations. Wineries and distilleries will now be classified alongside other food and drink establishments such as restaurants, meaning outdoor and patio seating is permitted while indoor seating and service are not, and outdoor tables must be separated by six feet of distance.
Also unchanged is the statewide requirement that all individuals wear face coverings in public and that business operators require customers to wear face coverings upon entrance.To read more, go here.

I remember when someone stated that they wanted to do something, a common response was, "It's a free country." I guess that saying won't be used anymore. Sad, and also scary!
