Federal Judge Strikes Down Biden Admin's Travel Mask Mandate
« on: April 18, 2022, 02:21:33 PM »
Well, lookie here! A Trump appointee flat-out tells the CDC they overstepped their author-i-tay. Go stand in the corner, CDC, until you can play nice.

I haven't flown anywhere in about 3 years and it's gonna stay that way until the adults are back in charge and this dumbassery is a black stain on our history.

While this judge is practicing a modicum of common sense, Congress should get its ass in gear and get rid of TSA, again when the adults are in charge. There is scant evidence that TSA has done anything to thwart terrorism. They've been excellent at screaming at travelers, groping people, and pissing people off. But unearthing shoe bombs and underwear bombs? Not so much.

A United States District Court judge in Florida vacated the nationwide travel mask mandate on Monday in a ruling that found the mask requirement for travel via mass transit, planes, and trains violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The lengthy ruling explains how the Biden administration "improperly invoked the order and interpretive rule exceptions to notice and comment," "improperly invoked the good cause exception" to such rulemaking in a manner that "was not harmless error" and how the mandate "is arbitrary and capricious because the CDC failed to adequately explain its reasoning."

The rest is at the link.

Most, if not all of the U.S. major airlines, were quick to announce this even on board aircraft that were flying.

Insanity Wrap, a pseudonym of Steven Green who writes for PJ Media, described it. Sorry, no link.

Little Red Lying Hood was quick to denounce this decision, but nobody cares what she thinks.  :yawn:

She was crying in some radio/podcast interview either today or yesterday because FL is treating kids so bad by not letting them learn about butt sex in kindergarten.

Not surprisingly, this:

DOJ Will Appeal Ruling Nixing Federal Mask Mandates

The Department of Justice announced Tuesday evening the Biden administration will appeal Monday’s ruling by a federal judge in Florida that struck down mask mandates for air and Amtrak travel.

“The Department of Justice and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) disagree with the district court’s decision and will appeal, subject to CDC’s conclusion that the order remains necessary for public health. The Department continues to believe that the order requiring masking in the transportation corridor is a valid exercise of the authority Congress has given CDC to protect the public health. That is an important authority the Department will continue to work to preserve,” DOJ released in a statement. “On April 13, 2022, before the district court’s decision, CDC explained that the order would remain in effect while it assessed current public health conditions, and that the Transportation Security Administration would extend its directive implementing the order until May 3 to facilitate CDC’s assessment.”

“If CDC concludes that a mandatory order remains necessary for the public’s health after that assessment, the Department of Justice will appeal the district court’s decision,” the statement concludes.

Earlier today President Joe Biden was asked about the mandate and said the decision about whether to wear a mask while traveling is a personal choice. His new Wuhan coronavirus advisor pushed for the reinstatement of the mandate.

Gaffe-o-matic Sharter Joe failed to get his instructions from his handlers/Barry before stepping in the scheisse once again.  :whatever:
