Biden and the CDC Just Proved Masking Is About Control, Not Public Health

The CDC, drunk on its own power, has asked the Department of Justice to appeal U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle’s ruling that the mask mandate for public transportation is unconstitutional.

“To protect CDC’s public health authority beyond the ongoing assessment announced last week, CDC has asked DOJ to proceed with an appeal in Health Freedom Defense Fund, Inc., et al., v. Biden, et al.,” the agency said in a statement. “It is CDC’s continuing assessment that at this time an order requiring masking in the indoor transportation corridor remains necessary for the public health.”

Did you catch that? They’re appealing the decision in order to protect the CDC’s authority. They’re furious that they’re losing their power over the lives of 331 million Americans and they’re not going to take it.

“CDC will continue to monitor public health conditions to determine whether such an order remains necessary,” the statement continued. “CDC believes this is a lawful order, well within CDC’s legal authority to protect public health.”

Translation: The mandate ends when WE say it ends. The rules are for the peasants.

Judge Mizelle wrote in her ruling that the CDC masking order “exceeded the CDC’s statutory authority, improperly invoked the good cause exception to notice and comment rulemaking, and failed to adequately explain its decisions.” Therefore, “the Court declares unlawful and vacates the Mask Mandate.”

When the decision came down on Monday, the Biden administration quickly announced that the TSA would no longer enforce the mandate.

But then the crazies started screeching about it on Twitter and the Biden had to do something—which is always the response of bureaucrats on the public dole. It doesn’t matter whether what they do is right or in the public’s best interest, as long as they can be seen as doing something.

Katie Pavlich from our sister site Townhall didn’t mince words about how this will turn out:

A TV doctor at MSNBC is actually encouraging confrontations on planes.

Never forget: This has always been about power rather than public health.

Who could have possibly guessed that the person who has been chosen to run Joe Biden’s new “Ministry of Truth” would turn out to be a raving, dictatorial lunatic?

That’s the story this morning after others have begun to dig through Nina Jankowicz’s past social media posts. As RedState reported previously, Jankowicz is set to be the new director of the administration’s new “Disinformation Governance Board,” an Orwellian entity if I’ve ever seen one.

So who is she? Apparently, Jankowicz is a far-left, pro-censorship Karen who believes the government should have absolute power. No, I’m not exaggerating. Read her posts for yourself.

She's a complete lunatic. pic.twitter.com/kU2mIGo7gM

Jankowicz is (because it’s a requirement on the left these days) a big-time Russia hysteric, spreading false conspiracy theories that the Hunter Biden laptop was a “Russian disinformation campaign.” She was also a huge fan of the Mueller investigation before she turned into a pro-lockdown fanatic. Does that sound like someone who should be put in charge of dictating — from a governmental perch — what is and isn’t true for the Department of Homeland Security?

Think about that. It’d be bad enough if she were part of the FEC as some kind of government finger-wagging experiment. That alone would be insane, but she’s going to be making judgments on disinformation in regards to government targeting of “extremists”? That’s scary stuff, and it should not be understated how dictatorial it is. America is not supposed to have a “Ministry of Truth.” That’s supposed to be reserved for autocracies. America having one now is also flatly unconstitutional, and hopefully, lawsuits are already being prepared as I type this. Such an overreach cannot be allowed to stand unchallenged.

Of course, while Jankowicz is a tyrannical figure who looks at the American populace as serfs, she happens to be flat-out crazy as well.

So to recap, the top authority in the nation on what is “disinformation” is a Harry-Potter-obsessed, Soviet-cosplaying Karen who took one too many theater classes. What could possibly go...
