Coronavirus COVID-19

Death rate, Z, not the same thing as total number of deaths.

Doesn't change the fact that way more (purported) Biden voters are dying, given that the vast majority of deaths are coming from urban (and liberal) areas.

Doesn't matter.

Democrats don't stop voting just because they're dead.

This is houndy's hockey stick graph. You'll hear all about it, but never get to see the data.

It was required for my grandson's kindergarten. They wore mask more properly than the adults. They didn't fuss about it either. No kids caught covid in class that year, but 1 kid caught it outside of the classroom. Masks are a choice, not to made fun off. Do you make fun of people on Oxygen, or one's that lost their hair from cancer treatment? Live and let live, no one is better than the person next to them.

Oh, you can see the data. Www.WorldoMeter.com. There’s plenty of data there. you can sort by county and see who’s dying. And here’s a hint: It ain’t Trump voters.

If you're not familiar with TechnoFog, they tend to follow court cases and whoever it is, breaks some very interesting information.

I just opened the link saw numerous attributions and highlighting of text without links to an actual source. This stuff is easy to find on Twitter. If you’d like to be taken seriously I recommend real original sources or legit news outlets who link to actual sources.

How many Peabody’s has @foghat won! As many as O’reilly I bet!

TechnoFog typically links to court docs and such directly.

Masks are not the same as oxygen. Get serious Gil.

Good job Klein.

Unreal. The US govt shouldn’t be distributing mask to protest against the China virus that were made in China.

I received a couple of free masks with some of my orders I have made in the last month.

All were made in China.

A virus that was researched in China and paid for by the U.S. Government (aka Faci), and that same department pushes masks, which just so happend to be made in the country that was paid to do the research. Some story lines you just can't make up.

According to the Mayo Clinc, they can be used to help prevent the spread of a disease. They are a health aide.

Even Tucker, who has politicians bend to his will, was calling him a Lib.

[GannonFan]

Eh, Kavanaugh and Sotomayor are the same type of judge, both have a really hard time leaving politics at the door and both are, intellectually, lightweights on the current Court. The one I was disappointed with yesterday was Kagan and her dissent with the large private company vaccine mandate. It almost seemed like she lost a bet with Sotomayor and had to sign on with her. I don't think there's been a more sure thing judicially in the past few years other than the idea that the poorly crafted OSHA mandate was incredibly executive department overreach (why the 100 person limit? No COVID risk if you're under 100 people? Why wait a whole year into the pandemic and post vaccines to institute this? Given that vaccines apparently don't stop the newer variants, what is the vital protection being afforded that needs a mandate? What about other protections that apparently do work - social distancing, masks, etc. If those are being followed why the mandate? ).

He is like al dente pasta. Somewhat stiff but still bends to pressure.

I figured he would be less strict in his interpretations of the law, but I didn't think he would go as far as being another Roberts. At least he found his spine for the employer mandate portion. That one was black & white, unless you had a political axe to grind (aka the 3 that voted for it) as there was zero precedent and OSHA's authority is pretty well spelled out in what it can and cannot do.

Why? Why? I’ll tell you why!!! Because there are over 100,000 kids on ventilators as we speak, motherfucker!!!! Just ask Sotomayor!!!

I posted it because the guy is disinfecting a chair that is already getting plenty of UV and they closed beaches. It's over the top craziness!

Already am on record in this thread as not being bothered by masks, nor wearing them if someone is uncomfortable around me with them off.

I won’t make fun of most people in masks, but there are certain situations where I’ll mock the fuck out of them. Driving in your car alone and wearing a mask? Mock. Outside, around no one else, wearing a mask? Mock. Running or exercising by yourself outside yet still wearing a mask? Mock.

I mean honestly, if you’re wearing a mask in situations like those, just go ahead and eat a fucking bullet. You’re too far gone to bring back to sanity anyway.

I laughed when I saw the guy in the picture but then I wondered - is he wearing a mask to protect from COVID or chemicals in the disinfectant?

I know I wouldn't be wearing a mask out on the beach all by myself.

Have you seen the meltdown the blue check brigade is having over striking down the OSHA mandate? Batshit crazy like those 6 judges are going to be responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of people, amd now we have to pack the court. FAR worse than any angst from the right over the 5-4 on the health care workers..

I think the funnier thing is the stink the Libs put up when he was nominated. Proved all of them VERY wrong. I knew he was a standup guy, and he's showing it.

I'd agree with this. The outrage I see in places where the Blue folks hang out is silly about this - makes me wonder about their sanity when one of the more obvious examples of government overreach in the past few years wasn't really all that obvious to them. I mean, even the poor schmuck who works for Biden who tweeted about it being pretty sketchy (and was even quoted by Gorsuch in this case) knew it wasn't likely to be legit the moment they thought of it.

I have. It's all ridiculous, partisan nonsense. I agree with you.

And it's about equal to that of Republicans that Brett and Roberts sided with the Libs.
