Joe Biden has signed his first slate of executive actions as president, erasing core aspects of Donald Trump’s legacy on the coronavirus pandemic, immigration, climate change, and more with the simple stroke of a pen.
Following an afternoon of ceremonies that included a virtual parade through Washington, DC, and the laying of a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, the new administration immediately got to work around 5:15pm on the East Coast, rolling out 15 executive orders and two other action items.
“There's no time to start like today,” the president said from the Oval Office’s Resolute Desk.

So, if you cross a state border for whatever reason you MUST wear a mask ? Clearly no one has thought out this insanity.

So Quid Pro Joe is coming to my house and force me to put on my mask while I sleeping, taking a shower, or eating. Next will be mandatory web cams so they can check out what I'm doing 24/7. The only useful thing he has done is get a COVID shot. If he can stand so can I. If, I could find one. Not only can I not find end of the line I can't even find the line. Get that 25th Amendment warmed up.

Let’s make government more efficient having them wear masks, let people who don’t even live here have rights and agree to bypass the Constitution on treaties. Nothing new here, just what they were doing before. TRUMP was right all along of course. That’s why we voted for him and will again if he decides to run. However I think he serves a better purpose attacking the Biden administration and liberals by rallying the opposition on a platform similar to Rush, perhaps taking over for him as his illness progresses.

While most informed and intelligent people in the world, other than the “Mask producers”, have concluded that masks are absolutely worthless regarding “Covid” but helpful in causing depression and acne among other things, Sleepy Joe decides to further enforce the “mask mandate”. Fun times in store for us.

What mask mandate? I don't know about any mandate, because I don't read or watch the lying news media.

As one who posts articles, I hate to be critical of posts, but I found this article almost impossible to read because of the Independent’s awrul site. And it is so Liberal that all articles slant left.

I would bet my next to last dollar that within 72 hours the definition of COVID-19 will somehow change to make the case rate plummet.
In the 1970's, in response to the 'energy crisis', highway speeds were reduced and immediately 'highway deaths' decreased. Well, it makes sense that SOME deaths would be avoided, but at the same time they reduced speed limits they also changed the definition of a 'highway accident death' requiring that the actual mortality happen within a shorter time-frame from the date of the accident. Ie., there were fewer lingering deaths because after a certain period of time... it was no longer 'accident related'.
You watch. This will happen.

Why am I playing the songs from Evita right now? Somehow it seems appropriate. We're in for sad and bad times. Right off the top, women's sports are now a thing of the past with transgenders being able to play in the women's sports.

I think I heard a groan and a rumble as the Unknown Soldier rolled over.

My new mask is green and has "Front Toward Enemy" printed on it. I have two. Very cool.
Biden can KMA, however.

When I go to Tractor Supply, I wear a mask because they are a private business and they ask kindly for you to comply and provide masks at their stores' entrances. I choose to shop there, so I comply. I don't feel the same about a Biden mask "mandate." Perhaps if he would mandate English as the official language of the US...Of the states bordering Texas, only New Mexico might be expected to post state police to help enforce a thoroughly progressive unwritten law, which is what Biden's mandate is. I don't see Ok, Ar, La, or Tx being keen on enforcement of said mandate. This is but another camel nose poking inside the tent; worse will be coming down the pike.

He is so optimistic with his prediction that we are all going to cook from the heat if we don't pay extra taxes.

Anything basement signs or does is illegal. He is not legitimate president of anything.

I have not gotten past my position from the start, which is that no one has the authority to tell anyone else what to wear. You can wear what you like, but when it comes to my dressing, I prefer making my own choices. The same for doctors. I prefer the one I have to the Democrats, governors, mayors, CDC, all that crowd who incredibly are delivering prescriptions without a medical license, without any lab tests, and without ever having met me. That is really a phenomenal claim to knowledge which I question.
