Biden Airplane Mask Mandate Ruled Illegal; Liberals Aren’t Doing Well Since Biden’s Mandate Got Struck Down

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden’s “Mask Mandate” on federal airplanes is illegal, a federal judge ruled on Monday in a setback to Biden’s COVID-19 agenda.

One day after taking office, Biden issued Executive Order (EO) 13998, ordering the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to develop the Mask Mandate, and for various other federal agencies like the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to implement the CDC’s decisions. EO 13998 also covered airports and other public transportation, such as buses.

CDC issued its initial order on January 29, 2021, pursuant to Biden’s EO. Among other things, it requires almost everyone ages two and up to wear masks in airports and on airplanes, with certain narrow exceptions such as between bites when they are eating.

Various legal challenges have been filed against the mandate. (Full disclosure: The author of this article is also one of the lawyers on one such lawsuit, FRC Action v. Biden, which Breitbart News reporter Katherine Hamilton has covered.) Most recently, almost two dozen states filed a lawsuit raising several statutory and constitutional objections to the Mask Mandate.

Monday’s ruling was on one of the earliest cases, filed in July 2021. The lawsuit alleged that the Mask Mandate violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) on three separate grounds: First, that issuing the order is beyond CDC’s statutory authority granted by Congress in 42 U.S.C. § 264a. Second, that the CDC’s action was really a rule (i.e., a regulation) rather than an order, and therefore had to go through a process of public notice and opportunity for public comment before taking effect. And third, that it violates the APA because it is “arbitrary and capricious,” meaning that it was not the result of reasoned decision making.

Liberals Aren’t Doing Well Since Biden’s Mask Mandate Got Struck Down

By Townhall. After a federal judge in Florida struck down the Biden administration’s mask mandate for most forms of travel including planes, trains, and public transit, liberal media figures did not take the news well.

While the decision was celebrated by many sane Americans and Republican leaders, Katie pointed out on Twitter that the double-standard employed by many liberals in the mainstream media.

Their outrage is especially confusing given the mandate was set to expire on May 3 after a 15-day extension by the Biden administration was announced last week. But that didn’t stop the Twitter storm from raging as the often-hypocritical members of the liberal media apparently ignore the fact that anyone is still free to wear a mask wherever and whenever they like, however silly they may look.

Report: Two Major Airlines Announce They Will Ignore Court Ruling Ending Mask Mandate

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Two major U.S. airlines have announced that they will continue to enforce Democrat President Joe Biden’s mask mandate on public transportation despite a federal judge ruling on Monday that the mandate was “unlawful” and that it must be “terminate[d].” . . .

The announcement from the two airlines comes after U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle for the Middle District of Florida ruled earlier in the day that the mandate was unlawful because the mandate “exceeded the CDC’s statutory authority, improperly invoked the good cause exception to notice and comment rulemaking, and failed to adequately explain its decisions.”

The ruling said that Court declared the mandate to be unlawful because “our system does not permit agencies to act unlawfully even in pursuit of desirable ends.” (Read more from “Report: Two Major Airlines Announce They Will Ignore Court Ruling Ending Mask Mandate” HERE)

Worried About 2022? Senate Democrat Now Pushing to Build Border Wall (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH) recently toured two sectors along the U.S.-Mexico border and called for more security as the crisis that started under President Joe Biden appears set to become worse once Title 42 is no longer enforced after May 23.

Hassan visited and spoke with Border Patrol in the Rio Grande Valley Sector, which leads the nation in arrests for illegal immigrants, and the Tucson Sector. Hassan called for a border wall, along with more personnel and technology to confront the ongoing border crisis.

“On my third trip down to the border as a senior member of the Homeland Security Committee, I heard from border agents about the urgent need for additional resources – including personnel, technology, and physical barriers – to help ensure that we have safe, secure, and humane borders,” Hassan said in a statement.

“In particular, I appreciated hearing from border agents about their efforts to stop unlawful border crossings, and the technology that they use to secure the border and intercept illegal drug trafficking,” she continued. “I will continue working across the aisle to help ensure that our border agents have the support that they need to carry out their critical mission and will keep pressing the administration for a comprehensive plan to strengthen border security and deliver additional resources to the border, which is especially important given its recent announcement to end Title 42.”

WATCH: Sleepy Joe Shakes Hands With Thin Air After Bizarre Speech

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. President Biden was left empty-handed following an address at a North Carolina university Thursday.

Biden, 79, had just finished delivering a nearly 40-minute speech at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in Greensboro when he turned toward stage right with his paw outstretched in a handshake position.

There was no one else on stage and no one from the applauding crowd approached the president to exchange the pleasantry, according to footage of the event.

Moment a Confused Looking Biden Sticks Out His Hand and Appears to Shake Thin Air After Falsely Claiming in Speech That He Had Also Been a ‘Full Professor’ at UPenn for Four Years

By Daily Mail. President Joe Biden looked lost again Thursday after finishing a speech on the nation’s ongoing supply chain crisis when he turned around and stuck his hand out as if to shake hands – but there was no one else on stage.

The 79-year-old president claimed before the handshake fiasco that he had served as a ‘full professor’ at the University of Pennsylvania despite never teaching a class at the school, in yet another gaffe that has Republicans questioning Biden’s cognitive abilities. . .

The speech also saw Biden bizarrely claim that he used to be a ‘full professor’ at the University of Pennsylvania.

‘I’ve been at a lot of university campuses, matter of fact for four years, I was a full professor at the University of Pennsylvania.’

Biden, from nearby Delaware, was named Benjamin Franklin Presidential Practice Professor, the first person to hold the role, in 2017. He did not teach regular classes but made about a dozen public appearances on the campus, mostly at big-ticketed events, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. He collected a pay check in 2017, 2018 and early 2019.

‘I Don’t Need Your Business’: Restaurant Owner Tells ‘Ignorant’ Biden Supporters to Dine Elsewhere

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Georgia restaurant owner posted a notice on the establishment’s window slamming President Joe Biden and his “ignorant” supporters and attributed the rise in supply costs and shortage of workers for his restaurant to the policies implemented by the Biden administration.

The sign, posted outside of an Appalachian Grill restaurant in Cartersville, Georgia, was initially shared Sunday in a Reddit forum before going viral on several social media platforms.

The notice instructed Biden voters who have no regrets about their vote in the 2020 election to take their business somewhere else.

“If you voted for Brandon’s Build Back BS and don’t have remorse or regrets I wish you would leave, I don’t need your business,” the notice read. Your ignorant, naive decision has more than doubled our costs of goods and depleted our labor force by more than triple.”

The mention of the name, “Brandon” was in reference to the phrase, “Let’s go, Brandon,” which became popular among Biden’s critics following a NASCAR race in early October, when an NBC Sports reporter interviewing winning driver Brandon Brown claimed the crowd was shouting “Let’s go, Brandon” when they were actually saying “F–k Joe Biden.” (Read more from “‘I Don’t Need Your Business’: Restaurant Owner Tells ‘Ignorant’ Biden Supporters to Dine Elsewhere” HERE)

WATCH: Almost 100 People Developed Brain Tumors After Links To School

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Ninety-four former staff members and students from Colonia High School in Woodbridge, New Jersey, have developed an “extremely” rare form of malignant brain tumor, leading local officials to approve an emergency probe of the school Tuesday.

Radiological assessments will be conducted throughout the school’s 28-acre campus, as well as indoor radon testing, this coming Easter weekend, the New York Post reported.

“There could be a real problem here, and our residents deserve to know if there are any dangers,” Woodbridge Mayor John McCormac said, according to the outlet. “We’re all concerned, and we all want to get to the bottom of this. This is definitely not normal.”

One former student, Al Lupiano, 50, was diagnosed with brain tumors in the 1990s but subsequently recovered, according to NJ.com. Lupiano also lost his younger sister to the disease in February at the age of 44, the outlet continued. Lupiano’s wife was also diagnosed with a brain tumor, the NY Post reported.

All three family members attended Colonia High, the NY Post noted. Lupiano has spearheaded a public push for answers after he started a Facebook group focused on former Colonia students and the rare brain cancer, the outlet noted.

Letter From Jan. 6 Prisoner to Americans ‘Don’t Do Nothing!’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a letter obtained exclusively by The Epoch Times, a Jan. 6 prisoner asks, “are you ready to light brushfires of Liberty in the souls of men? Then don’t do nothing!” The letter, dated December 30, 2021, is revealed here in its entirety for the first time.

“My name is Jeremy Brown,” the letter begins. “I am a 20-year retired U.S. Army Special Forces Combat Veteran. On January 5th and 6th, 2021 I was in our Nation’s capital as part of an all-volunteer protective detail tasked with providing security for organizers and speakers at a legally permitted political rally. On September 30th, 2021 I was arrested at home in Tampa, Florida by approximately 30 to 40 heavily armed Federal Agents and local law enforcement. They came in full force to serve a misdemeanor arrest warrant for being in an ‘unauthorized area.’ These were no ordinary agents. They were agents working as part of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF). Oddly, in the nine months prior to that day, I had never been contacted or questioned by any investigators about this case. Stranger still, the arrest warrant and search warrant had only been granted one day prior. This, despite numerous members of my Protective Detail having been arrested many months prior. While this may sound unusual to you, I know exactly why it happened.”

According to Brown, the same JTTF agents who arrested him on Sept. 30, 2021, had tried to recruit him as a Confidential Informant (CI) on Dec. 9, 2020. Their “pitch,” he said, was intended to gauge his “willingness to infiltrate law-abiding citizen groups that had no criminal history and certainly were not designated “terrorist groups.”

Brown declined their offer. But, having what he calls “a healthy mistrust of Federal law enforcement,” Brown made an audio recording of the exchange, which—after many efforts to delete it from the internet—has been shared and reposted by numerous others, keeping it alive. The most current iteration was shared by The Gateway Pundit. (Read more from “Letter From Jan. 6 Prisoner to Americans ‘Don’t Do Nothing!’” HERE)

WATCH: Transgender Rugby Player Slams Female Athletes, Coach Says Three Injured

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A high school rugby league is under fire after a transgender female athlete allegedly injured three biological female players during a Saturday match.

A biological male identifying and playing as a female on Guam High School’s rugby team injured three biological female players from Tiyan High School during Saturday’s season-opening match, according to Tiyan High School head coach Conrad Kerber.

The transgender athlete’s “body size, body strength … completely dominate any girl that I have on my team,” Kerber said, according to a report.

“The aggressive nature that was witnessed clearly showed that it’s a definite issue that we have to deal with,” he added. “I have three players that were injured in that first game against Guam High directly by that particular player.” (Read more from “WATCH: Transgender Rugby Player Slams Female Athletes, Coach Says Three Injured” HERE)

WATCH: What Fauci Said – and Didn’t Say – About China’s Handling of the Wuhan Coronavirus Is Chilling

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. Dr. Anthony Fauci made a Wednesday appearance on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” during which he was asked about how China is handling its “Zero COVID” policy involving lockdowns of the most frightening sort. As Katie covered earlier this week, people can be heard screaming from their windows while a drone flies by telling them to quiet down. Both Mitchell and Fauci went about their discussion in just about the most dispassionate way possible.

Fauci referenced how “China has a number of problems,” but he did also claim that “their approach” of “a strictest lockdown that you’d never be able to implement in the United States… prevents the spread of infection,” and went on to say about China, “Remember, early on, they were saying, and I think accurately, that they were doing better than almost anybody else.” . . .

Fauci also didn’t expand upon why “you’d never be able to implement [such lockdowns] in the United States.” Perhaps it’s because the Chinese people are under the rule of the Chinese Communist Party, and thus do not have the freedom to speak out.

Biden Extends Mask Mandates for Americans Traveling; Ends Coronavirus Restrictions for Border Crossers

By Breitbart. President Joe Biden’s administration is extending the federal mask mandate for Americans traveling on commercial buses and flights while carrying out plans to end Chinese coronavirus restrictions for border crossers and illegal aliens.

On Wednesday, Biden’s Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that the federal transportation mask mandate — which has been in place since 2020 — will remain in effect for at least two more weeks.

“CDC continues to monitor the spread of the Omicron variant, especially the BA.2 subvariant that now makes up more than 85 percent of United States cases,” the agency wrote in a statement:

Since early April, there have been increases in the seven-day moving average of cases in the U.S. The CDC Mask Order remains in effect while CDC assesses the potential impact of the rise of cases on severe disease, including hospitalizations and deaths, and healthcare system capacity. TSA will extend the security directive and emergency amendment for 15 days, through May 3, 2022. [Emphasis added]

At the same time, Biden’s CDC is officially ending the Title 42 public health authority on May 23. The authority, first imposed by former President Donald Trump, allows federal immigration officials to quickly return illegal aliens to their native countries to protect Americans from illnesses, diseases, and viruses like coronavirus.

‘Now I’m Pissed’ Secret Service Agents Outraged by White House Spin Over First Dog Bites

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Secret Service agents were outraged last year by the White House’s attempt to downplay bite injuries caused by then-first dog Major — even trying to get President Biden to personally pay for a damaged coat, newly released documents show.

Secret Service leaders also sought to keep attack details out of official paperwork — at one point rejecting an agent’s “excessively detailed” account to avoid upsetting the first family — after Major bit agents on eight consecutive days.

The records, released in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Judicial Watch, show that attacks occurred both earlier and later than previously known. . .

The March 8 bite actually was the final attack in an eight-day streak and the wounded agent — whose injuries were categorized as “severe” by a colleague — fumed about Psaki’s spin.

“NO I didn’t surprise the dog doing my job by being at [redacted] as the press secretary just said! Now I’m pissed,” the agent wrote to a coworker. (Read more from “‘Now I’m Pissed’ Secret Service Agents Outraged by White House Spin Over First Dog Bites” HERE)
