And when Tucker asked them what comes next, they noted they intended to open for business as usual tomorrow. These guys are going to take this to the very end of this road. I wish them all the best in their efforts, and that Governor Murphy falls down a hole that has no bottom.

There are 2 problems:
1) they have the rest of the state's gym owners against them as they feel THEY are being punished because of these 2 owners.
2) The awards will come from the taxpayers, not the governor personally, so they may win the war but there will be a lot of animosities felt towards them.

Personally I side with them for standing up to this tyrant. I do however miss my gym.

The same type of situation is currently going on in Az. The gym owners here are contesting the Govs mandate.

Maybe the other gym owners in NJ should stand up for themselves like these two guys rather than lay down for this clown governor. I really believe if enough people would fight back and oppose these idiots, changes would come.

We agree, but it's hard to blame people for not wanting to go against Tammany Hall.

Bingo. The cowardice of the rest of the gym owners is not these guys issue. It would make it a whole lot harder for Murphy if he had to wage war against all of the gym owners instead of just two.

"You can't slit the throat of everyone whose character it would improve." - Al Swearengen



I hate offended people. They come in two flavours - huffy and whiny - and it's hard to know which is worst. The huffy ones are self-important, narcissistic authoritarians in love with the sound of their own booming disapproval, while the whiny, sparrowlike ones are so annoying and sickly and ill-equipped for life on Earth you just want to smack them round the head until they stop crying and grow up.

Embattled Atilis Gym owners Ian Smith and Frank Trumbetti partnered with a local political candidate running for the U.S. Senate in an effort to keep the state of New Jersey from closing their gym.

Atilis Gym is now a designated campaign rally and volunteer location for “Rik Mehta for Senate” in New Jersey, Smith and Trumbetti revealed early Friday night. "All members are invited to join us in exercising their rights by coming to the facility to volunteer their time, donate, and participate in activities," they said.

Two days after the Bellmawr, New Jersey, gym was fined nearly $130,000 for repeatedly defying Gov. Phil Murphy's executive order to stay closed during the COVID-19 pandemic, Rik Mehta, a GOP senate candidate challenging Sen. Cory Booker, joined forces with the gym owners.

Smith told the Washington Examiner that the state of New Jersey has been notified of this designation. "Any fines levied or attempt to barricade our doors would now be a political interference with an active Senate Campaign," he said in a statement. "Rik Mehta has been one of the only political figures in NJ to show his support for the rights of small businesses. Where others have 'spoken' support Rik has shown action."

Mehta, a biotech entrepreneur, lauded their union, saying in a press release, "Our campaign will begin holding daily political rallies by those members who volunteer on our campaign at the Atilis Gym location in Bellmawr. My campaign is rooted in supporting the hardworking people of New Jersey and saving the small businesses that are the backbone of our economy both here in New Jersey and across our great country."

Me too. Big Grin And I think I heard Murphy cussing all the way down here in Florida when he was told what has happened.

This appears to be a plunger handle shoved up Murphy's Ass!
Hope it's well splintered.

I think I might have to cruise over and Show some political support and maybe get a workout in as well Cool

Ever since Dan Bongino was there, things started happening. Even the go fund me for the legal fees went up 300k+!

I think they’re were getting fined something like 10k-15k each day.
