The moratorium on evictions ended on Saturday July 31st. It cannot be legally extended. And on Wednesday Aug 4th, the President of the United States extended it anyway. We are going to talk about that today on Flipping America.

I thought the eviction moratorium was a brazen and illegal power grab when Mr. Trump was President. I continue to believe the same under Mr. Biden. The CDC has overstepped its authority. This is now an established fact - all the way to the Supreme Court. Mr. Biden acknowledged this in his statement regarding the continuation of the ban, noting that the Supreme Court would almost certainly overturn this. But he hoped that in the meantime more aid could get to those who need it to pay their rent. I can’t help but think about what the result would be if I held a press conference and said, “I know that what I’m about to do is illegal, but it’s ok. I mean well. And when the judge tells me to stop I will.” Yeah. Well, we already know that our elected officials are usually held to a different standard - meaning no standard at all.

So here’s what we are going to talk about today:
Why is the ban on evictions unconstitutional and likely illegal?
What are the implications of the President’s lawlessness?
Who are they really trying to help with the ban on evictions?
Who is being hurt by the ban?
Why has the government only 10% of the $46.5 billion in relief funds?
