What's going on with the suspension of Habeas Corpus in NY State?

I'm hearing scattered things about NY State suspending Habeas Corpus (for example: https://lawandcrime.com/george-floyd-death/aoc-slams-nyc-judge-for-suspension-of-habeas-corpus-in-response-to-george-floyd-protests/), but nothing concrete or coherent is coming up on news searches.

So what's up with it? Is this accurate?

Suspension of Habeas Corpus should be a trigger point for violent resistance of state authority

It feels to me like we've been frogs in water being slowly heated to boiling. I know this moment has snuck up on me, but I feel like we're approaching the limit to what is acceptable government power.

Should habeas corpus be suspended, I will consider that a declaration of war by the state on its people. I will resist any armed state authority as if they were an actual enemy combatant.

This shit is actually real. It's why the 2a exists.

I'm wondering if any others feel similarly, or if some disagree and want to talk some sense into me.

A New York judge just ruled that police can detain any person for over 24 hours in light of the recent protests. Why is habeas corpus a right that can be given and taken away? What circumstances justify this right being revoked?

It seems like it would be a right protected by the constitution, but it’s not
