The TRACE Act and the Rule of Law

On May 1, 2020, Democratic congressman Bobby Rush introduced bill H.R. 6666, otherwise known as the “Testing, Reaching, And Contacting Everyone Act” (“TRACE Act”).

Ostensibly, the TRACE Act will limit the spread of COVID-19 by creating “mobile health units” that will “conduct diagnostic testing… trace and monitor the contacts of infected individuals” and then “support the quarantine of such contacts.” The TRACE Act allocates $100 billion in federal funds to facilitate this project.

Rush says "increased testing and contact tracing is the only way we will get back normal and safely reopen our economy." Basically, Rush’s position is that America should remained locked down until everyone is tested.

The TRACE Act will not keep Americans healthy or safe. Instead, it will erode what remains of our constitutional freedoms -- freedoms which have been all but washed away during the pandemic’s hysteria.

Although the TRACE ACT has been sponsored by over 50 congressmen it received very little media coverage. Briefly: how does bill H.R. 6666 work?

Section 2(a) of the TRACE Act provides that the government may award grants to “eligible entities” to conduct “diagnostic testing for COVID-19”, to “trace and monitor the contacts” of any infected people, and to “support the quarantine of such contacts.” This will be administered by (1) “mobile health units,” which will provide services relating to “testing and quarantine” at people’s residences. The TRACE Act appropriates $100 billion in 2020 to carry out the above mission.

Exactly who are the “eligible entities” that will be administering these COVID-19 tests and “support[ing] the quarantine”?

So...did they throw in an extra six to disguise the real intent of this bill, and think we wouldn’t NOTICE?

The Karens of America will become the contact tracer Nazis!

“Oh yeah, the last time I saw him he was being led into one of those Mobile Health Unit trucks. We haven’t seen him for about three weeks now...”

Nice shoe-in for Agenda 21.
Maybe we’ll get lucky and all of the rioters will croak from
Covid19 before this gets pushed on us. It’s hard to protest if you are in a coma.

This pile of crap had better be dead on arrival, at both the Senate, and the President’s desk, if it goes that far. Don’t think the courts will protect us from this garbage, either. The four communist grubs will be all for it, and closeted faggot Roberts will declare it a “tax”.

What happens when the contact tracers learn Patient X went to Wal Mart? Do they quarantine every single person on the clock that day? Maybe they just pick on the small family businesses that cannot afford to defend themselves against having the entire staff quarantined? The word of a few contact tracers can shut down large parts of the economy.

I think this is part of the plan. Make EVERYTHING 666 in order to ridicule us when the real final 666 comes. By the way...are you social distancing by 6 ft?
