    I can’t believe they dedicated time and energy to this. 
     

     

     

    I wonder what variations are they talking about? There must be several Canadians who are using the phrase or its variation in emails and such for them to issue that directive.

     

    Speaking of which, a song titled "Let's Go Brandon" was #1 on iTunes chart for a few days until Adele released her single. It's still #2 overall.

    It’s surreal that this is actually happening all across the country. Have you noticed there aren’t many elected Republicans speaking out on it, or trying to do something about it? 

     

    They're busy fundraising about these issues though. Too many fake Republicans or RINOs (especially the GOP leadership) who fought harder against Trump for 5 years (and the Tea party from 2010-2015), than actually standing up for the rights of We The People in the last 2 years. They went along with business closures, lockdowns, mask mandates and other unconstitutional restrictions. Only Senator Rand Paul and a few representatives are vocal against the lockdowns and mandates. 

     

    I don't want to see a lot of people suffering from the government overreach, but maybe it will wake up a lot of Americans (and people around the world). Compliance will not get us out of the ever increasing medical tyranny. And it will get much much worse before it gets better. 

     

    EDIT (late):

    Senator Ron Johnson is also speaking out against the mandate.

    Realized that I never asked to be added, considering I was off IDF during his season.

     

    It’s good to see Carter and Gwen interacting through DMs, and it’s crazy to think about how he’s 16 now.

     

    I added you anyway. FBrXh07.gif

    Right. Also…the handful of NBA basketball players standing their ground. 
     

    On the mandates on private business…I’m starting to believe that’s a non-starter. Biden is just hoping the large companies get in line. 
     

    It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Unfortunately, Abbott will probably lose this battle. 
     

     

     

    Or Biden just gave cover to large companies that want to impose the mandate. 

     

    As for the rest of companies with 100+ employees, once OSHA issues the guidelines, several State AGs are going to challenge it in court.

     

    SWA and AA can act tough but we shall see how tough they are when December comes and 1/3 or more of their flights are grounded from lack of pilots and other workers. For those who plan to travel this holiday season, you might want to have alternate travel plans. Air travel would be a nightmare if this game of chicken between airlines and their employees continues.

    Airlines updates --

     

     

    Southwest protest on Monday, 10/18/21

     

     

    Southwest CEO lies statement:

     

     

    Here's an insightful article about the Southwest situation.

    Excerpt:

    "This action by the Southwest pilots is not designed to attract attention. It is designed to use economic leverage to compel Southwest to change course. The pilots are not saying they want a conversation. They are saying that if Southwest does not change its policy, they will destroy the company."

     

     

     

    Meanwhile, at United Airlines:

    “Just wait two weeks” :haha:

     

     

    You probably noticed Minnesota is the worst state right now. You know what? Nobody here cares that much about it.  There are some news stories about it, but not the hysteria we’d see if we had a Republican Governor. There will probably be pressure going forward to bring back mask mandates, and such, but I don’t think our Democrat Governor is a big fan of it. 


     

    Isn't it about time for flu season up north?

     

    If your governor is up for reelection, he'll probably decide based on what's supported by the majority in your state (mask or no mask).

    Look at the outbreaks on those SEC states. /s

     

    Every weekend, packed stadiums, no masks, for college football. Low number of cases.

    Can we just talked about how risk taker of a vocalist Peedy is? He's NOT afraid at all to go for those notes (even if he missed one part, but still atleast it's good to know he's willing to try). Love that about him :wub:

     

    I also cannot stop watching this guy perform. He has a certain charisma and appeal that's just so positive and joyous to watch

     

    He's more than just the Elvis impersonation tbh. He is his own artist and he is good on his own lane

     

    He reminds me a bit of Scotty McCreery, Idol S10 winner. Blake said that he could win; I hope he does.

    I enjoyed The Joy Reunion's battle performance tonight. :thumbs:

     

     

     

    The Joy Reunion and Peedy delivered solid battle performances. It's unfortunate that The Joy Reunion was sent home. :( I'm especially sad that they didn't get a chance to showcase Gentry's warm voice in future rounds.
