The CDC is a component of the Executive Branch. How could it be independent of the Biden administration? I'd argue we shouldn't want it to be an independent entity unanswerable to the public in any form.
Also, this announcement doesn't change anything from yesterday. Yesterday, we were told the DOJ would appeal if the CDC determined the mask mandate is necessary. Today, we're told the same exact thing. The big question is what will the CDC do?
CTA in Chicago still requires face diapers. Funny thing is SEPTA in Philly does not, but Philly has an indoor mask mandate.
WOW, all good points. It demonstrates the ineptitude of government. “trust us” really isn’t good enough.
Exactly. Look at this from the perspective of Chinese/Russian/Iranian handlers.
Is a certain decision more or less likely to destabilize/hurt the United States of America?
If it does, go with it.
That’s like here in Utah, with the Frontrunner train! They had a mask ruling, but I saw several people without masks, and none of the train hosts stopped to tell them to put one on! They have extra ones, at the door with bottles of hand sanitizer. But people were riding without masks on, and no one was scolding them for leaving them off; and that was even before the judge made that ruling!
You are so correct because in the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave the people who vote will be so grateful to the Nanny State for deciding for them whether or not they must wear Masks on their faces with this big centralized bureaucracy making this decision for them in a one-size-fits-all manner instead of considering individual medical/health circumstances because the Central Democratic Control (CDC) knows best and we all must be obedient sheep.
Naw, if the Valley Metro security saw us with a mask off down they would tell us to pull it up. They weren’t on every ride though. Once in awhile even a bus driver would be, I guess looking in the rear view mirror or camera and saying to pull your mask up like we were little kids on the school bus misbehaving. How sad and pathetic. I’m guessing the majority of bus drivers didn’t want to get in trouble since there were cameras. Plus, I’m sure there would be Karens complaining if the drivers let us be free.
