CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, to whom a virus has granted powers outstripping the Constitution, has signed a new 60-day eviction moratorium that many legal scholars told President Biden is unconstitutional. Biden has decided to go ahead with it anyway until the courts slap it down.
In the eyes of a progressive, the landlord is evil because he’s rich and the tenant is good because they’re poor. So they’ll probably be glad to hear that landlords who break the “law” face a potential $100,000 fine and one year in jail, or, if the eviction results in death, a fine of $250,000.
Joseph Zeballos-Roig ~ The new 60-day CDC eviction moratorium carries steep criminal penalties for individual landlords who break the law:
- Potential $100k fine and 1 year in jail if eviction doesn't result in death
- Up to $250k fine and 1 year in jail if evicted person dies

Stephen L. Miller ~ What law are they breaking?
Great question - since the CDC absolutely does NOT have the authority to promulgate law in this country!
That was our question.
jimtreacher.substack.com ~ Law? Which law?
Uncle Ray’s Pinky ~ Not a law. Not constitutional.
Jonathan Hewitt ~ "Law." How quaint.
WitCoHE ~ It’s not a law. The CDC has never been authorized to do this. The Federal Government has no power to do this under the Constitution. Also, SCOTUS has already ruled this illegal.
J. A. Kozinski ~ The unelected clowns at a public health agency are rewriting property law again? On whose authority? Guess they missed the Supreme Court ruling.
Geriatric Joe just wants the CDC to buy him some more time to piss away more money that we don't have on Democrat voters.
