Covid has provided a pretext both for unprecedented tyranny and for the vast amounts of wasteful government spending that ignited the growing inflation crisis. Even with Covid fading, Democrats keep the pretext alive:

On January 14, the Biden administration issued a 90-day extension to the SOE, allowing for the continuation of various executive actions and federal spending pertaining to the pandemic. A month later, Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) introduced a resolution to end it, arguing that “with COVID cases and hospitalizations on the decline, 94 percent of Americans having immunity to COVID, mask mandates falling by the wayside, and 70 percent of Americans agreeing ‘it’s time we accept that COVID is here to stay’ and that ‘we just need to get on with our lives,’ it’s clear we need new approach to COVID as we learn to live with it.”

Politico reports that the Senate voted 48-47 to approve the resolution along party lines Thursday, with Republicans invoking a provision of the National Emergencies Act to pass it via simple majority.

Unfortunately, it is not likely to pass the Democrat-controlled House, and even if it does, Biden croaks that he will veto it.

Many of the policies championed by Democrats to curb COVID have proven to be either ineffective or counterproductive, including lockdowns, masking, and promotion of COVID vaccines. Meanwhile, approximately $740 billion in previously approved COVID emergency spending remains unused.

Some Democrats have begun to back away from heavy-handed Covid policies that would be unnecessary now even if they were effective. However, Biden continues his jihad to force people who don’t want it to take an increasingly pointless vaccine.

“We will never give up on vaccinating more Americans,” Biden declared during his State of the Union address this week.

“Covid forever” would make a great campaign slogan for the Democrats this November.
