Democrats and RINOs never let a crisis go to waste because a crisis allows them to expand their powers. 9/11 is just one example. Bush and company used it to add a Cabinet-level department, make the unpatriotic PATRIOT Act law, and start two wars they later would abandon.

Washington does not wait for a crisis to come along. The deep state turned President Trump’s actually peaceful protest on the National Mall on January 6 into what they called an insurrection. DC now has the power to jail dissidents. They also beta-tested their facial recognition apparatus.

The border crisis allows Democrats to flood Republican states with illegal aliens by sending them to Wyoming and other states instead of sending them home.

I don’t know where to begin in enumerating the extensions of power under covid.
