U.S. citizens: Demand Congress investigate soaring excess death rates
(LifeSiteNews) — The Biden administration announced that next month it will resume offering to mail free COVID-19 tests to every American, ostensibly in response to a rise in virus cases over the summer.
The free tests, on which the federal government has spent more than $1.8 billion since 2021, will be able to be requested at COVIDTests.gov, at up to four per household, with the government insisting the tests will be able to recognize the latest variants.
The government says the decision follows spiking cases over the summer and “high” or “very high” levels of COVID being found in the wastewater of most states. It is timed to align with an expected seasonal increase in traveling and indoor gatherings as summer turns to fall.
“These tests will help keep families and their loved ones safe this fall and winter season,” said Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) assistant secretary for preparedness and response Dawn O’Connell, CNBC reports. “This is the seventh time over the last three years that the Biden-Harris administration has given families the opportunity to order the over-the-counter Covid-19 tests for free.”

It remains to be seen whether a new round of COVID testing or the results thereof will lead to any broader return of more controversial COVID policies, but the timing has sparked speculation, given the presidential election is less than three months away and COVID was the justification for 2020’s radical transformation of vote-by-mail rules.
I guess monkey pox wasn’t catching on, now the Biden administration has announced the restart of the free at-home COVID-19 test program. Why do they want people testing like crazy again? Couldn’t be the upcoming election, right?

A large body of evidence has found that restrictions on personal and economic activity undertaken in 2020 and part of 2021 caused far more harm than good, in terms of personal freedom and economics as well as public health, and that lives could have been saved through far less burdensome methods, such as the promotion of established therapeutic drugs, narrower protections focused on those most at risk (such as the elderly and infirm), and increasing vitamin D intake.
In Florida, a grand jury impaneled by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is currently investigating the manufacture and rollout of the COVID shots. In February, it released its first interim report on the underlying justification for Operation Warp Speed, which determined that lockdowns did more harm than good, that masks were ineffective at stopping COVID transmission, that COVID was “statistically almost harmless” to children and most adults, and that it is “highly likely” that COVID hospitalization numbers were inflated. The grand jury’s report on the shots themselves is highly anticipated.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has called America’s COVID response one of “the greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the peacetime history of this country,” against which Congress, state legislatures, and courts alike were largely negligent to protect constitutional rights, personal liberty, and the rule of law.
