(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, has come under fire from Democrat operatives for reposting an InfoWars message instructing Americans not to comply with rumored COVID lockdowns that the Biden regime reportedly plans to impose this September, InfoWars reported.

In response to leftist fearmongering about the new COVID strain, InfoWars ran an initial article describing the impending lockdowns, beginning with government agencies such as the Transportation Security Administration and Border Patrol.
The report from the Alex Jones-fronted media site relied on information from whistleblowers within the two agencies, who suggested that masking policies will almost certainly return “when” COVID numbers continue to spike into October.
Other reports indicate that the Biden administration is already purchasing COVID equipment, citing “safety protocol” as its reasoning.
For example, the Pentagon has contracted with Hologic Sales and Service LLC, agreeing to a $1.5 million contract running from October through May of 2024 to supply federal “covid testing services.”
The Department of Veterans Affairs also awarded a $2 million contract to COVID test manufacturer Abbott Molecular Inc. beginning in late September and running through the following year.
Lee reposted the InfoWars article to his Twitter account, saying that Americans would only be forced to mask, get more vaccines and stay home “over my lifeless body.”
However, he immediately came under attack for his audacious suggestion that the federal government would impose draconian lockdowns for the latest version of COVID.
Utah state Rep. Brian King, a Democrat, scolded Lee for daring to associate with Jones, who last year was handed a nearly $1 billion fine by a leftist judge in the defamation trial over his allegations that the 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre was a false-flag operation relying on crisis actors.
“Infowars is your source for such garbage?,” he wrote. “Please. Even you are better than this. Stop peddling misinformation.”

Ed Krassenstein, a far-left operative, also took to Twitter to complain about Lee’s “dangerous” association with “conspiracy theories” from the likes of Jones.
If you are pushing conspiracy theories by Infowars’ Alex Jones, saying that Biden is planning to bring back COVID restrictions in September, then you simply did not learn your lesson or you have been living under a rock.

“Why does this man still have a following?” Krassenstein asked of Jones.
Since last week, the mainstream media has made the rounds to stir up COVID hysteria.
NBC, for example, ran a story on the uptick in hospitalizations.

“COVID is making a comeback this summer,” NBC’s Lester Holt said.
“When will the new booster shots roll out?” he asked.
The new variant is called the EG.5 variant. According to a hysterical CNN report, “human behavior is the engine for this uptick.”
“Human behavior,” can, and has been, controlled by the federal government in the past, and it appears that the Biden regime is ramping up efforts to do so again by way of vaccinations, masking, and potentially lockdowns.
