Hitler uses Reichstag fire to strengthen his dictatorial powers. Even though the origins of the fire were unclear Hitler blamed the communists and stripped individual rights and freedoms based on this “emergency”.

Nero also used a fire of vague origins to scapegoat Christians and to pass laws justifying the persecution of Christians.
There is a long history of tyrants using emergencies to justify the long term removal of people’s rights. Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel said that one should never let an emergency go to waste. Inspired by the actions of past dictators and the words of Rahm Emmanuel, politicians around the world have stripped people of their rights and freedoms based on the Coronavirus. The Coronavirus is the Reichstag fire and the Roman fire wrapped together. I have no reason to suspect that the removal of people’s rights due to the Coronavirus will be short term and I have every reason to suspect that people will wind up deprived of their freedoms for many years to come.

Even the last minute changes made to the election procedures in some states, per,it ting the Dems to cheat to their hearts’ content, were done invoking the “Covid emergency.”
I wish that before Harris/Obama pack the Supreme Court, the Court would rule on the issue of authorities (often just health officials) suspending the Constitution for “health reasons.” I don’t recall seeing that exception in the document.
It's not influenza, it's a communist Chinese biovirus that has altered our political and economic landscape.
Thank you for the PING.

All Donald Trump has to do is formally rescind his national emergency federal state disaster declaration order and all this goes away for the most part.
