My brother told me a back in the early 90s I need to learn the back roads in case the Feds lock down the Interstate Highways.

Here's all the answer CNN and Biden need.

@TXAG
Biden’s new nat’l vaxx mandate on private biz may be the most unconstitutional, illegal thing I’ve ever seen out of any Admin in modern American history.

This is an egregious, tyrannical power grab that stands no chance in court.

I’ll be suing this disastrous Admin very soon.

This CNN Contributor needs to read some Supreme Court cases.

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the right to travel between states in the case of Saenz v. Roe, 526 U.S. 489 (1999). That case held that the United States Constitution protected three separate aspects of the right to travel among the states:

(1) the right to enter one state and leave another (an inherent right with historical support from the Articles of Confederation),

(2) the right to be treated as a welcome visitor rather than a hostile stranger (protected by the “Privileges and Immunities” clause in Article IV, § 2), and

(3) (for those who become permanent residents of a state) the right to be treated equally to native-born citizens (this is protected by the 14th Amendment’s Privileges or Immunities Clause; citing the majority opinion in the Slaughter-House Cases, Justice Stevens said, “the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment . . . has always been common ground that this Clause protects the third component of the right to travel.”).

You're absolutely right. It is an unfortunately widespread misconception that the Constitution (and government in general) grants rights. They do not. Let me repeat that for the slow lib lurkers out there. Neither the Constitution nor the federal government grants rights. Our rights are our own, innate.

The Constitution, in particular the first 10 Amendments (aka the "Bill of Rights") is primarily concerned with limiting what government can do. That is, in the case of the BOR, explicitly protecting our rights and preventing the government from infringing on them in any way.

Consider, our government is a representative government. It exists at the consent of the governed. Our government has no rights, no powers, nothing that we do not grant it. Ergo, in order to grant some power to the government, we ourselves must have that right, that power. Want to allow the government to own tanks? Ok. Want to own your own tank? Ok. (yes you can, I know people that do own tanks)

It is a hard concept for some fascist wanna-bees to wrap their little heads around. They think the government should be all powerful over us, when it truth it is (or should be anyway) exactly the opposite.

It has been obvious for several years that the communists, who are now our masters, have targeted travel within the country as a strategically important control target...

It was one of their 11-steps towards absolute control that were discussed here on FR post election-theft night...

Many of the new links in our chains, like travel control, are being added under the cover of both the pandemic and the botched (maybe intentionally botch??) disaster in Afghanistan...

IAC, the indolent and subservient Aamerican sheeple will just go along with anything their beloved communist masters demand...

One of the things that is obvious is that our masters are just getting started and far more draconian things are in the country's future...

There are no indications that Ronald Reagan over-exaggerated the darkness and length of our now certain tyrannical future...
