What’s crazy is Biden got bailed out by a Trump judge who clerked for Thomas. He can now end an unpopular mask mandate without taking responsibility or alienating allies. If the WH was so irate about the ruling, it could’ve immediately said it’s asking CA11 for a stay. It didn’t

This is true and long has been. A decade ago I got death threats, threats to my kids etc on this medium. So you stop reading replies and remember the key rule: Don’t talk to crazy people.
You have valuable things to say. Don’t let them silence you. And find dialogue elsewhere.
Twitter can be great for information exchange and journalism. But it also allows harassment and bullying, especially targeted to women.
There needs be space for civil exchange of ideas, policy debates, and sharing of research without name-calling, threats or personal attacks.

Actually, Matt, polling shows the mask mandate is unpopular with a majority of the American people. Also unpopular with the major airlines and a flight attendants union, and with the US Senate, which recently passed a resolution to end it. But hey, you do you.
A CBS News correspondent is claiming the mask mandate was “unpopular” because she didn’t like it
CBS News is allowing and encouraging its reporters to express Republican views since hiring Trump official Mick Mulvaney and falsely identifying him as a journalist on the air

Imagine just one person being held hostage in the US by Hamas. It has 200. TWO HUNDRED babies, toddlers, teenagers, mothers, fathers and grandparents. ripped from their homes after they saw Hamas brutally murder the people they love.
Are the atrocities too much to process?
Hamas is holding 200 people hostage. They are holding babies as young as 5 months through to Holocaust survivors as old as 95.
Now is a moment for moral clarity. There is NO justification for these crimes.
Silence is complicity. Demand Hamas free the hostages.…
