According to the CDC website, Congress granted authority to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which then “delegated” this power to the CDC, to establish quarantine and isolation protocols [i.e. internment camps]. The CDC also claims it has the right to use state and local police to “enforce” these protocols. The CDC makes no bones about the nature of its assumed powers when it states, rather bluntly:“In addition to serving as medical functions, isolation and quarantine also are ‘police power’ functions, derived from the right of the state to take action affecting individuals for the benefit of society.”“The federal government derives its authority for isolation and quarantine from the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.“Under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S. Code § 264), the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services is authorized to take measures to prevent the entry and spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States and between states.“The authority for carrying out these functions on a daily basis has been delegated to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).”The above quote is bureaucratic lingo for a boot on your face.
Ironically, the CDC is taking no such measures to prevent the entry and spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the United States like Mexico.
The frightening thing, IMO, is it is so clear the government is acting in bad faith on this and still so much of the nation has swallowed their line - I mean the whole enchilada. I've lost several old friends over this vaccine issue.
To avoid that, I lie. I don't see my old pre-retirement friends face to face anymore, anyway. I moved away from Phoenix to a rural AZ County.
When you don't have any friends a guy doesn't have those issues.
If you have to lie to a friend to maintain a friendship, then that person isn't a friend.
Would this be the same CDC whose eviction moratorium has been slapped down by courts for lack of authority?
