What the Pandemic Taught Us About Government Overreach

After three years, the World Health Organization has declared that COVID-19 no longer qualifies as a global emergency.

In the wake of the pandemic, what lessons have we learned from the experience including the shutdowns, mask requirements, and vaccine mandates?

On this week's episode of The Global Lane, we spoke with Leslie Manookian, the head of the Health Freedom Defense Fund which successfully challenged Centers for Disease Control mask mandates in federal court.

What we are all overlooking is the fact that we have been too compliant. It’s our fear that gives them power. The principalities that possess these leaders. Fear not. Put on the armor and be vigilant. God bless.

It's been crimes against humanity

[dianechilds]

I’m so grateful that you’re talking about this. I was disappointed when in the beginning and middle of the pandemic, you didn’t mention such things as you are now.

[vassiliosca]

They must be held accountable, punished and jailed for crimes against humanity!

[darrenharriott]

It taught us that these agencies will inflict policies that are untrue and harmful on society with no consequences

Thank you for talking about this. Over-reach is an understatement to say the least. Never again.

-Rember when CBN's "health expert" was pushing COV propaganda?
I'll never forget!

The overreach started with exaggerated statistics, countless falsehoods and continued medical tyranny today.

The elite think they fooled the world, , but little do they know God has a better plan, and with little or no effort he will always succeed 🙏👍💪👌👈🙏

[jonathanstern]

Yes!, to everything you said in this report. We must stand firm against any governmental over reach in the future as long as we have breath to do so.

[mikelee]

The supreme court has ruled and said multiple times, that emergencies do not suspend the bill of rights

[ggductor]

They don’t care about people but power and their ideology only

[itsgettingold]

The compliance of churches was very telling about how church leadership views the importance of the Christian community meeting for worship and Sacraments. Their compliance with closings of churches while Target was deemed "essential, " told their congregations that churches staying open was NOT essential. Yeah, well, I got the message loud and clear. I have not given one red cent to my church since 2021. I tithe, but to faithful Christian organizations - which does not include my diocese.

I learned through this pandemic I learned don't trust your government trusts God that's what I learned

[vibrantbiztoday]

Public Health Services Act should have nailed the CDC and their overreach too!

[THEMARK]

Deleting comments... so much for free speech. 😂

[dellchica]

That Govts CANNOT be trusted. Its time to put our trust in GOD

[jyju]

This over reach will be worse in the next 5 years.

What the pandemic taught us about the toothpaste in most Christians. When it boils down to it most people claiming to be Christian do not practice James but instead reveal their hate and intolerance and lack of faith in Jesus. As you watch CBN you see this revealed in every story.

How many people developed mental health issues being isolated and literally locked up alone for 1 1/2 years?
