You've probably heard the news: A naive and inexperienced Trump-appointed judicial activist with no medical qualifications has openly defied The Science and struck down the CDC's mask mandates -- prompting wild howls of sacrilege and blasphemy from the Covidian Cult.
U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle said the CDC improperly failed to justify its continued decision to force the use of masks on planes, trains, and public transit, declaring the mandates to be unlawful, “Because our system does not permit agencies to act unlawfully even in pursuit of desirable ends."
Noting that mask mandates violate the Administrative Procedure Act and are outside the scope of the CDC's authority, with a brazen and bold stroke of the pen, Judge Mizelle has forced the CDC to walk-back its April 13th decision to extend mask mandates. This in turn means that the Transportation Security Administration can no longer cite The Science as a valid reason for violating bodily autonomy and trampling individual liberties.
Instead, they they will be focusing on implementing gender-neutral screening, investing some $18.6 million to replace their current "gender-based" Advanced Imaging Technology.
The White House has said the court ruling means that the mask order “is not in effect at this time” -- at least not for now. And, while many Americans are cheering the decision, ripping off their masks as the announcement was made mid-flight, Jen Psaki was quick to make clear:
“This is obviously a disappointing decision.”
Psaki also points out that the CDC still recommends wearing a mask on public transit, they just can't force a mask on your face. All this exciting news comes even as Dr. Fauci is making the media rounds claiming that herd immunity might not apply to COVID-19 and reassuring the American public that new deadly variants will be coming soon.
