Mask Mandates Madness

Submitted by ub on

Federal judge vacates the #CDC mask mandate in USA airports, as well as other American transport hubs without any hearing.

The US government says passengers traveling on public transportation won't be required to wear a face mask for now after a judge in Florida ruled the federal mask mandate exceeded the authority of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Now the Justice Department announced that it would appeal the ruling “subject to CDC’s conclusion that the order remains necessary for public health.

The jurist reportedly took this action without even an oral argument! This is the same judge that got a rare #ABA rating of “unqualified” to be a federal judge.

Her opinion is reportedly filled with unsupported medical claims as though she were an expert in fields about which she knows even less than about law.

Above is Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, who overturned the mask mandate, along with her mentor, #SCOTUS Justice Thomas.
