Power-hungry officials, take note: There's a word that Dan Bongino and Dr. Nicole Saphier can't seem to find in the Bill of Rights

In reading through the Bill of Rights, Dan Bongino can’t seem to find the exception for a pandemic.

I’m still looking for that asterisk for a pathogen in the Bill of Rights and I just can’t seem to find it.

Dr. Nicole Saphier points out that when the Bill of Rights was written, many potentially fatal forms of disease were prevalent.

In a time when smallpox and untreated strep infections reigned supreme, you think they would have mentioned one of them in the document if they believed them relevant.

I read it this morning and it was not present.
Maybe it’s at home in quarantine. https://t.co/ByOZ0qvT6u

Government guidelines about social distancing, mask-wearing and other precautions are helpful in promoting a safe and responsible nation as we battle the effects of the coronavirus.

Nevertheless, freedom is still freedom. And the Bill of Rights is still the Bill of Rights.
