    President Biden terminated the national emergency over the COVID-19 pandemic on Monday, three years after federal and state governments initially enacted a two-week order to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

    Biden signed the resolution ending the orders after U.S. House of Representatives lawmakers passed the bill despite almost 200 House Democrats voting against ending the national emergency declaration, which led to draconian social distancing rules, closures of small businesses and schools, and mask and vaccine mandates.

    "The President signed into law: H.J.Res. 7, which terminates the national emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic," the White House said in a short news release.

    Earlier this year, the Biden administration quietly admitted its plan to end the COVID-19 emergency declarations, which initially intended to file one last extension of the national and public health emergency declarations on April 11 until officially ending both on May 11.

    The policy was intended to criticize two bills in the House of Representatives that would end the emergency declarations by force, claiming the legislation would "create wide-ranging chaos and uncertainty throughout the health care system - for states, for hospitals and doctors' offices, and, most importantly, for tens of millions of Americans."

    According to The Hill, the new law ends federal health program waivers, including Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP, although health officials have eased back on many of the regulations surrounding COVID-19.

    The declaration also allowed the Trump administration to pause student loan repayments and enact Title 42, to block illegal immigrants from crossing the southern border out of caution for public health.

    Biden administration officials are still trying to end the policy that allows border agents to turn migrants away on an expedited basis, but the Supreme Court stopped it.

    Former President Donald Trump first declared a national emergency on March 13, 2020, which allowed federal officials to authorize funding for testing and vaccination centers in cities and states.

Considering the irrefutable fact that the Left /the Democratic Socialists, beginning in March of 2020, employed the repetitive use of the Covid Pandemic as a political cudgel to wrest a presidential election, where their candidate rarely left his basement, from a frightened and beaten down citizenry of this Representative Republic: What does your knowledge NOW, in hindsight, aid in your understanding of the motives of the Authoritarian Left?
  The "Left" cares about all Democratics, so it was imperative that we do whatever it took to elect a lifelong politician to become that Democratic Socialist to forever change US.
  Pandemics are serious business, where our leaders must use wisdom and practicable efforts of all that serve to protect the public from not only the pandemic, but these ignoble usurpers of the Left.
  I lost almost everything in the Covid Pandemic, and I want justice; a justice where only the truth prevails, and the rampant fraud that is now legend is remedied.
