But last week, Texas dropped its ban amid legal challenges.

So who's running against Abbott?

“ Forcing masks is the exact opposite of civil rights.”

Yes. I was actually surprised to read the first line

They always conflate blocking a mask mandate with stopping people from wearing masks.

No one is stopping anyone from wearing a mask if they choose to do so.

Banning mask mandates does not ban the use of masks.

Afghanistan is part of the distraction campaign too.

Election decertification is an existential threat to them and they are willing to destroy the entire world to stop it.

They have a lot of nerve talking about right. What sort of alternative universe are they living in?

Do they make the same complaint for places requiring mask wearing?

Wow - The Secretary of Education. He probably has a dozen SWAT Teams at his command, ready to storm a grade school and round up those pesky kids at gunpoint.

Too bad they couldn’t put them to use in Afghanistan, but that would be hazardous. They’d much rather bully Americans.

Secretary of Education! That’s a laugh.

There is NOTHING in our Constitution that gives anyone in the federal government any power of education. It is a local issue!!!

Think Afghanistan situation is distracting attention from about everything right now.

Hey what about that time the Secretary of Education became the President of the Colonies back when we were escaping the Cylon attacks on the battlestar Galatica?

Oh wait that's fiction...never mind.

By design.

Election decertification is going to threaten everything the Democrats worked so hard to steal.

They would be willing to burn the entire world to the ground to prevent it from happening.

How can the prohibition of a mandate be a civil rights violation. If you want to wear a mask for yourself or have your kid wear a mask, fine. If you don’t, fine. Giving people control and choice is a civil rights violation?

Lawfare is a weapon. Doesn’t matter how absurd. You still have to fight it and run up legal bills.

What we need is loser-pays.

We are in a de-facto civil war now with this Administration and they are the enemy of all Americans; even Obiden voters and they don’t even know it.

“He cast mask wearing as part of students’ rights,...”

If it’s a right to wear a mask...it’s a right to NOT wear a mask.

Even though there is no mask mandate the teachers and students are free to wear masks.

More lawfare executed by the democrat taliban party against their enemies.

This is how CWII is fought, folks. If lawfare ever stops working for the criminal democrat taliban, they will resort to physical violence perpetrated by government.
