The hospitals there have had more than a year to prepare for any surge.
They did, didn’t they?
What the hell are Quarteens?
The children of Octroons?
Just another brick in the wall
CDC publishes ‘green zone’ plan for mass imprisonment

Quick, double the number of Capitol Police!
Vaccine resisters re-education camps?
His order will be applied only to white people.
Rule number one. Don’t get on the bus. Never go to government food or supply distribution centers.
There are some diseases for which this could be warranted, but Covid isn’t one of them. Which makes me wonder if there is currently a “threat assessment” of an outbreak of one of these other diseases on the horizon?
One that comes to mind is a very antibiotics-resistant strain of Tuberculosis. There have long been secure quarantine facilities all over the US for this—and they mean it. You can only leave when you are cured or dead. No Habeus Corpus.
Another disease would be Smallpox, theoretically eradicated.
Tennessee - 7 day average deaths - 10
The National Guard and State Guard should throw out Bum Bill instead
The governor of Tennessee cannot be recalled. I am sure Soros looked over the list before he chose which governor to buy. He assumes it will be a dam-breaking event. Which governor is next?
The vague and ill defined language of this EO enables the governor and the left to simply use the NG for anything they like, since COVID, Climate Change, Gun ownership, and even White Supremacy have been politically labeled “Public Health Emergencies”.
Violence is brewing in Europe as a result of this kind of totalitarian rationalization of destruction of human rights and imposition of tyranny, and the left has no other recourse, if they wish to remain in power, which is existential for them.
Unless the elections of 2022 are suspended or canceled, the Democratic Totalitarians will suffer an epic loss of power. So, we are being pushed nearer and nearer to the abyss.
Did anyone actually read the part pertaining to the National Guard? I thought not.
“Namely, Personnel may: (1) perform authorized diagnostic testing for COVID-19 in health care settings, including but not to limited to hospitals, emergency departments, and alternate care sites (collectively, “Facilities”); (2) perform authorized nursing and other functions in Facilities; and (3) operate public or privately owned, permitted ambulance service vehicles with a licensed service. Accordingly, the following provisions are hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8: Tennessee Code Annotated, Titles 63 and Title 68, and related rules, with respect to licensure, continuing education, and other requirements for Personnel or Facilities utilizing Personnel; Title 68, Chapter 140, Part 3, with respect to Personnel and licensed ambulance services utilizing Personnel; and any other state or local law, order, rule, or regulation that would limit the application of this Paragraph 8 is hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8...”
Before I say what I am going to say, I want to make it clear that I am not going to ever voluntarily take a vaccination. I had COVID, sailed through it, and have perfect confidence in my own antibodies. There is no question that this is a manufactured crisis, and that the Federal government needs to be resisted on this issue until such time as the “crisis” winds down.
That said, the reaction I am seeing here in this thread to Lee’s order is laughably overblown, and makes us look like idiots. Read the order carefully, instead of taking at face value what some of the hysterics are telling you it says. It is a preventative order to prepare for the worst, and to avoid the complications of dealing with State regulations that would retard an immediate and helpful response. Lee (who I did not vote for in the primary, incidentally) is just doing exactly what a governor should be doing: preparing for the worst. Read the reference to quarantine facilities carefully, and tell me where you see any totalitarian implications to it.
Things are bad enough with what is happening to our country without having to “help truth along” with a reflexive, conspiratorial interpretation of every development that comes along. We have to be more discerning, or we will be the fools who cry “wolf” so often that people will ignore the real one when it comes.
Meanwhile, Tennessee recently achieved Constitutional Carry.
“Telephone assessments for involuntary commitment cases are permitted,” the executive order also states”
Literacy is a skill sorely lacking. That statement applies only to the following,
“for the emergency involuntary commitment of a person with a mental illness or serious emotional disturbance based upon a telephone assessment of such person by a mandatory pre-screening agent designated pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, Sections 33-6-104 and 33-6-427, if the following conditions are met:”
That is the only application. This is not about rounding up suspected COVID carriers or any other physical ailment.
I hate this Twatter trash.
Here is paragraph 8 verbatim:
“Discretion to utilize National Guard and State Guard members in connection with certain health care and m rgency services operations.
This Paragraph 8 is issued for the limited purpose of authorizing personnel recognized under Tennessee Code Annotated, Sections 58-1-203, 58-1-204, and 58-1-402 (collectively, “Personnel”), to serve in certain health care and emergency services roles to reduce system capacity strain resulting from COVID-19. Namely, Personnel may:
(1) perform authorized diagnostic testing for COVID-19 in health care settings, including but not to limited to hospitals, emergency departments, and alternate care sites (collectively, “Facilities”);
(2) perform authorized nursing and other functions in Facilities; and
(3) operate public or privately owned, permitted ambulance service vehicles with a licensed service.
Accordingly, the following provisions are hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8: Tennessee Code Annotated, Titles 63 and Title 68, and related rules, with respect to licensure, continuing education, and other requirements for Personnel or Facilities utilizing Personnel; Title 68, Chapter 140, Part 3, with respect to Personnel and licensed ambulance services utilizing Personnel; and any other state or local law, order, rule, or regulation that would limit the application of this Paragraph 8 is hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8. This Paragraph 8 is subject to the following conditions:
a. No Personnel shall operate under this Paragraph 8 unless designated by the Adjutant General upon request or order of the Governor;

e. A list of Personnel designated to operate under this Paragraph 8 and the Facility or setting in which such Personnel will be operating shall be updated from time to time as necessary;
f. Any authority, duties, or scope of practice suspensions extended to Personnel pursuant to this Paragraph 8 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the expiration or termination of Paragraph 8 or other order o f the Governor to that effect; and
g. This Paragraph 8 shall not affect the requirements and provisions of the suspended statutory and rule provisions with respect to any other person or facility.”
—————
That’s it. No camps. No forced vaccines. Just allowing NG to do three things: Covid diagnostics, nursing and driving ambulances.
Read the order, not the headline.
‘Regulatory Flexibilities’.
Got that?
The communists are on the march...
The chicom sneak attack has brought many of the fellow travelers out of the woodwork...
This draconian measure by Bill Lee is a classic example...
It would be interesting to know how much Soros paid him for this...
