JUST IN - California imposes statewide mask mandate because of the #Omicron variant starting Wednesday.
They never did this for any other variety of influenza, not for the swine flu, not the Asian flu, but they'll impose a mandate for what amounts to a cold.  **nononono*

IMO, these military people refusing the vaccines are betting they will be fully reimbursed on back pay and benefits.

If, like most eligible retires, they are able to "Double Dip"...to work a full-time career in the public sector while getting annual benefits. Thus, they're able to 'Get By...'. 

The pandemic and purposefully crashed economy taught us all how to expect less...'exist' less.

Because they love power, and exercising it in a way that makes them feel virtuous.

SCOTUS really is devolving into a 3-3-3, at best.

Cavanaugh and Barret are just more horrible personnel picks by Trump.

Both judges were vetted and approved by conservative groups @Killer Clouds   In fact, Barrett, his former USSC clerk, is a protege of Antonin Scalia.   :shrug:

IMHO Barrett, Kavanaugh and perhaps even Gorsuch are no better than Roberts.

Ironically, I thought Gorsuch would be the weakest link, but he's proving to be the strongest .... standing often with Alito and Thomas.

You just don't know what's going to influence a judge once he or she gets to the SC bench.  Clearly, the strongest influence for Barrett and Kavanaugh, to our justifiable grief, is Roberts.

The East Germans (Ossies) should know, much better than the Wessies, what happens to you when you let government dictate your very existence.

@Kamaji

I have NEVER understood how Merkel got elected to head the newly united Germany. Makes no sense at all to me.

Gorsuch is solid.   I think Barrett will turn out solid, too.  Kavanaugh is too political to champion the Constitution.  And Roberts is being blackmailed.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

IN other words, denying reality in order to promote the political narrative.
Yes. In response to twitter's directive to ban those who claim vaccinated people can still get the virus, someone tweeted a video of Dr. Fraudci being interviewed, where he said that vaccinated people can still get the virus. If we thought twitter was bad under Jack Dorsey ...
