By the time this is all sorted Sleepy Joe will be in the "rest home" eating vanilla pudding and watching Winnie the Pooh.

Clearly no-one should be forced to take the vaccine.

I don't think anyone has suggested that.

...on the other hand I don't see any reason why an airline should allow an unvaccinated, maskless person onto a flight, and expose their proper customers to a virus that might make them sick. Clearly they could be sued, if they didn't take such measures.

This doesn't stop some clever Neo-Fascist from starting Proud Superspreader Airlines. Where you are allowed to go maskless, unvaccinated and wear a "Trump Won!" t-shirt.

I think there will have a new section in the passport for vaccination certs.

After the 1st January anyone from third countries ( incl. UK) will have to have a negative Covid cert to get into this country.

It's our system! It even saved us from Trump, who could not overturn 50 separate elections.

Why don't you find a way to suggest it then? How about banning the non-compliant from all social media?
And international travel...

Force takes several forms.

I get that you don't see a reason, but did you know that in some countries, health information is considered private? I mean, private enough that in the US, it is poor form to ask someone if they really need that service dog, wheelchair, or such?

Civil liberties are always suspended for stuff that threatens the world though. Like running out of trees, or acid rain, or global warming, or covid, or maybe racism.

On a more serious note, the funny thing is that the airplanes, with everyone crowded in together, isn't as big a problem as the airports themselves are.

For viral spread, I mean. The buildings are a bigger problem to solve.

Elsewhere:
To reject a state's vote requires a majority in both houses. If the House votes to reject the objection and the Senate votes in favor, the objection fails. It's telling that no senators signed onto the House Republicans' amicus brief in the Texas case and politico is reporting that the Republican leadership is quietly telling members to not support challenges in the Senate. At least most Republican senators appreciate the fact that there's no advantage in losing more than once on the 6th of January. Drawing out objections to each swing state, or each state the went for Biden would just be a day long spectacle of defeat after defeat for Republicans.

I don't think this was ever a news item before. If it was a slow news day, local papers covered it.

The go-to plot line in apocalyptic fiction these days is EMP. Everything shuts down and people go batshit. Eswatini wouldn't even know there'd been one till a few days later when nothing came back on. Eish.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Geez, what kind of conspiracy theory did THIS come from...?

"Based on the preliminary results, we conclude
that the errors are so significant that they call into question the integrity and legitimacy of the results in the Antrim County 2020 election to the point that the
results are not certifiable..."

The Epoch Times? Personally, I'd wait for more info from other sources.

Until SC agrees to review the evidence, there is only sketchy sources available. CNN is as left as ET is right, but few people are willing to acknowledge the heavy left-wing bias in news/hollywood/academia

It is instructive to see who attacks people/sources rather than reviewing the evidence though.

Glen Beck had an expert read the Dominion manual, and relay some of the information found in it. It was skeezy-sounding. Rather than look at the manual and examine the claims though, most would simply attack Beck.

Why should I review the "evidence" from known liars, posted without any point?

Did you have a point to make?
