Sen. Rand Paul: Mask Mandates And Lockdowns From Petty Tyrants? No, Not Again. Choose Freedom
Fox News ^ | 08/05/21 | Senator Rand Paul

Posted on 08/05/2021 10:33:04 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Resist. 

They can’t arrest us all. They can’t keep all your kids home from school. They can’t keep every government building closed – although I’ve got a long list of ones they should.

We don’t have to accept the mandates, lockdowns, and harmful policies of the petty tyrants and feckless bureaucrats. We can simply say no, not again. 

Speaker Nancy Pelosi — you will not arrest or stop me or anyone on my staff from doing our jobs. We have all either had COVID, had the vaccine, or been offered the vaccine. We will make our own health choices. We will not show you a passport, we will not wear a mask, we will not be forced into random screening and testing so you can continue your drunk with power rein over the Capitol. 

President Biden — we will not accept your agencies’ mandates or your reported moves toward a lockdown. No one should follow the CDC’s anti-science mask mandates. And if you want to shutdown federal agencies again — some of which aren’t even back to work fully — I will stop every bill coming through the Senate with an amendment to cut their funding if they don’t come to work. 

No more.

Just as Biden has refused to accept the Supreme Court's ruling on the suspension of evictions.

Mitch ain’t happy about this. Word is, he’s fuming. It undermines his own messaging that everyone submits to becoming a human Guinea Pig for the Deep State and Big Pharma.

True story: Last Monday I went to our local Sams’s Club to pick up essentials (Jack Posobiac in Twitter recommended stocking up against another lockdown, so I got some TP for my cornholio...,) and there was a big sign saying that all Members and Associates must wear masks indoors due to new CDC guidelines. There was an Associate asking the unmasked to please put one on.

Roughly half of the Members walking into the store firmly but politely told the Associate to shove their mask where it don’t shine, and half the shoppers inside were unmasked.

I think the public in general are not going to take another mask mandate or lockdown order lying down.

While I don’t blame the customers you gotta feel sorry for the associates...just doing what they’re told.

Kinda like spitting on money before handing it to the toll taker....not really their fault.

That’s a key take away.

Not that we needed it, but this is more proof we have one political party in this country which is why it’s going downhill very very quickly now.

“which is why it’s going downhill very very quickly now”

IMO the end game is have everyone completely dependant on government....total power and control...so many things I see point in that direction.

Crash everything and rebuild as a communist country....because its worked so well everywhere else.

And if it doesn’t...well its Trumps fault of course.

What, they don’t know how to say NO?

I don’t feel sorry for them. In fact, the ones “just doing what they’re told” are part of the problem, if not all of it. Biden is just doing what he is told to do, too, and so tyrants take over and pass the buck back and forth.

Where does it stop? Does anyone have responsibility for what they do or don’t do anymore?

“Does anyone have responsibility for what they do or don’t do anymore?”

Personal responsibility is all but extinct my friend.

Everything is someone else’s fault now a days.

Just another indication of the breakdown of society my friend.

I’m glad I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ....best decision I ever made in my life.

If you don’t understand, where you live makes the difference if you are under Marshall law or not. Where there is ML it’ll be interesting to see the sheep’s (who reside there) breaking point. Or if they will totally SUBMIT (nice muslim word) and or OBEY (nice commie word).

“Obey”

Ever see the movie “They Live”?

Once again reality has caught up to a Hollywood fairytale....but instead of aliens the enemy are liberal democrats.

See, an employer can require employees to mask up.

But, according to Scotus, an employer cannot require male employees to dress like men and not like drag queens. They say it is in the Constitution.
