I’m sorry, but how in the hell is it legal for the CDC to have this kind of power over all of the United States? They aren’t the government, they aren’t elected, they are unaccountable. How can they force a blanket mask mandate order while also empowering the police to enforce it, even going so far as to add a criminal penalty for non-compliance?
From the Reason article:
“Americans are now required to wear masks in planes, trains, buses, subways, taxis, car services, boats, and transportation hubs, per a new order from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) that took effect today. Masks must be of a style approved by the federal government and must fit properly. Failure to comply will result in being prohibited from traveling, booted from the transit in question, and potential criminal penalties.”
We have serious problems in the nation if a health bureaucracy can wield this level of power. And the CDC is working in tandem with the TSA to enforce the order. That’s right, the TSA’s mission has predictably crept away from detecting “terrorism”, and is now a weapon aimed at American citizens, and not just at airports.
