You know I'm just about as happy as an illegal at our southern border right now.

We pushed back against the mandatory vaccine mandates.

We pushed back against the stupid mask mandate for airlines.

The unvaccinated will look like an All-Star team

Smart bunch

Americans, flight attendants and pilots are thrilled after a federal judge in Florida struck down the Biden administration's mask mandate for travel.


The ruling came out Monday afternoon and within hours, the Transportation Security Administration announced the mandate was no longer in place. Just last week the TSA extended the mandate into May after it was scheduled to expire in March.

"Due to today’s court ruling, effective immediately, TSA will no longer enforce its Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and transportation hubs. TSA will also rescind the new Security Directives that were scheduled to take effect tomorrow. CDC continues to recommend that people wear masks in indoor public transportation settings at this time," TSA released in a statement.

I too am jubilant that every flight I go on can be a superspreader event.

Is there a point to this? Why wouldn't people be happy? Do you think people like wearing masks?

Flying with a mask was miserable.

If it was a superspreader without a mask.

It WAS a superspreader with a mask.
How does wearing a mask on a plane make it a superspreader event? Do you understand how a face mask works to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases?

Who told you that masks aren't effective to stop the transmission of diseases? Why do Drs and nurses wear them if they arent effective in that job?
