Left Ignores Substance in Mask Ruling

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · April 21, 2022 10:46 AM

It comes as no surprise that the Left was unhappy with Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle's decision to strike down the Biden Administration's federal transportation mask mandate earlier this week. But instead of focussing their criticism on the substance of the ruling, the Left has spent the last few days obsessing over Judge Mizelle's age and the fact that she is a Trump appointee. Slate writer Mark Joseph Stern exemplified the countless articles and tweets on this topic. As Jacob Sullum explained for the New York Post:

Mizelle backed up all three of [her] conclusions with extensive discussion and cogent reasons. But instead of explaining why she was wrong, Stern complained that “a single unelected, life-tenured, 35-year-old judge just abolished the air travel mask mandate for the entire country.”

Democrat Mask Hypocrisy Hits a Peak in Virginia

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · February 09, 2022 7:23 PM

On Monday, Democrat candidate for Georgia Governor Stacey Abrams nearly broke the internet when pictures of her sans mask in a room full of masked students went viral. Despite her trying to claim that she briefly took her mask off for a single picture, the evidence proves otherwise.

Six hours after @OutKick posted photos showing that Stacey Abrams spent the entire day maskless with masked-up students, she went on CNN to say she took off her mask only to read to the kids.

She's lying:https://t.co/0m461rF25S

Conservatives Push Back Against Biden Vaccine Mandate

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · September 13, 2021 6:01 PM

Posted on Blog by Republican National Lawyers Association (RNLA) · July 28, 2021 8:54 PM

The CDC issued new guidance yesterday recommending that everyone in K-12 schools wear a mask indoors – including teachers, staff, students and visitors – regardless of vaccination status. As schools consider the new guidance and whether to require students to wear masks, Republican governors across the country lined up to fight for parents' choice on the matter as their children return to school this fall.

House Admin Republicans: H.R. 1 is a Partisan and Massive Congressional Overreach

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · February 19, 2021 5:00 PM

With H.R. 1 scheduled to come to the House floor the first week of March, it is important to revisit just how destructive this legislation, first introduced during the 116th Congress, would be for the U.S. election system. The Committee on House Administration Republicans have exposed H.R. 1 for what it is — "a partisan and massive congressional overreach designed to keep their Democrat majority by nationalizing our elections."

NY AG Report Shows What We Already Knew: Gov Cuomo Misled the Public on COVID Nursing Home Deaths

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · January 28, 2021 6:02 PM

On Thursday, New York Attorney General Letitia James released a bombshell report that shows what was already suspected about Governor Andrew Cuomo's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. Governor Cuomo severely misled the public about the number of COVID-19 deaths from the state's nursing home residents. The report is the latest chapter in the controversy surrounding a Health Department directive from last March which required nursing homes to accept residents who had tested positive for the virus:

The count of deaths in the state’s nursing homes has been a source of controversy for Mr. Cuomo and state Health Department officials, who have been sensitive to any suggestion that decisions made at the outset of the pandemic may have caused some of those deaths, which the state puts at more than 8,700.

Posted on Blog by Elizabeth Bradford El-Rassy · November 02, 2020 5:50 PM

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent changes in state election laws, the 2020 election cycle has been highly litigious, to say the least. Over 325 lawsuits have been filed since the primary election season alone. As the Heritage Foundation's Hans von Spakovsky told the Daily Caller: "Almost all of them have been filed by the progressive left and their allies in the Democratic Party."
