Quarantining during a public health threat is not a punishment.
It’s not a violation of your freedoms.
It’s part of being in a society.
You do not have the right to spread a dangerous and deadly disease to others.
Robust public health measures save lives.
@jeffreytucker I think that a threshold question should be whether and to what extent is the growth in autism cases a result of an ever-expanding definition of the term?
Watch this space. My client, @theHFDF, filed a petition for certiorari in the SCOTUS in its challenge to the Los Angeles Unified School District's mandate for employees to be vaccinated against COVID. The Court ordered LAUSD to respond to the petition and HFDF filed a reply. The petition and briefs have been distributed for conference on May 14, 2026, so a decision on whether the Court has granted the petition should come out on Monday, May 18.
The Holy Grail of COVID litigation was to abrogate, or at least limit, the Court's 1905 decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts. During the course of the pandemic, courts across the country genuflected before Jacobson, almost as if it granted the States a license to impose whatever restraint on liberty they wanted in the name of public health. But Jacobson long pre-dated the Court's opinions on bodily autonomy and the right to refuse unwanted medical treatment.
Granting cert in this case would give the Court an opportunity to reconsider Jacobson or at least clarify its scope. It would also, as HFDF pointed out in its reply brief, give the Court an opportunity to explain that Dobbs was not the death-knell for the right to bodily autonomy.

@jeffreytucker It was bad enough that this crew caused the pandemic. Worse still was their insistence that we all had to upend our lives for it. I'll never not be angry about what happened but we won't have justice until every one of them sits in prison.
On Sat I attended the Neuroscience of Vitality and Aging conference at Harvard. There were ~700 people in attendance, and I was the only person masking (with an N-95 rated, easy-to-breath-through @flo_mask). This is madness! Viruses cause brain aging! #CovidisAirborne#COVID19
SPLC was one of the most powerful censorship forces in the country for decades. Lavishly supported by many big American companies for many years. This is astonishing, and deeply concerning.
Brilliant text by @DanielHadas2 with a title that says it all: "Remember to forget the lockdowns: a legacy of defeat"
❤️❤️❤️
"Covid haunts our politics because it was a failure to which no one will own up, a crime for which no will take responsibility. Its political and social architects will not admit what they did was wrong, probably in most cases not even to themselves. Its opponents will not admit that their opposition failed, and failed because of faults that they have done nothing to purge. Politics has offered no good channels into which the anguish, distrust and resentment which lockdowns caused could flow. Nor has it offered much by way of remedies to the damage they did, or reforms that could impede their repetition. Lockdowns were a monster that politics created, but which it has no idea how to slay."

Trump should take this opportunity to announce that, in honor of the deceased pilots of Air Canada Flight 8646, he has directed his administration to explore privatizing our nation's air traffic control system, as did Canada in 1996.
Because it would be supported by user fees instead of taxpayer dollars, privatization would free our nation's air traffic control system from the vagaries of Congressional funding and bureaucratic red tape.
🚨HOLY CRAP!!!
The Atlanta TSA line has now stretched to a stunning 153 minute-wait-time... AT 6AM IN THE MORNING!!!!
The line is WRAPPING AROUND BAGGAGE CLAIM!!!
THIS IS PURE INSANITY!!!!!!
Barack Obama and his Chicago crew taught the Dems that they could treat government as a protection racket. Trump appears to be the only Republican who understands this.
So not only did ICE fix the wait lines at Atlanta's airport, now leftists are coming to protest them!!
This is an important microcosm of modern America. Democrats screw things up. We try to fix it. Leftists protest you trying to fix the problem they created.
They hate you and want you to suffer.
I don't know if the rest of the world is aware that in France during Covid, people had to write down or print an authorization that allowed them to go out, no further than one kilometer and no longer than one hour, an authorization that was granted to them by... themselves.
You read that right: prople signed themselves the papers allowing them to go out. It was a dream come true of the communist dictatorship I spent decades exposing: transforming people into their own police, their own surveillance.
You would think people would rebel against such absurdity. But you would be wrong - the media, intellectual elite, and political class unanimously approved these measures and immediately portrayed anyone daring to express any doubt as a far right supporter intent on killing others. It was the death of critical mind. And if it was not unanimous in the population, censorship made sure that this never became visible.
Side note: the only political force that greatly benefited from this feat was of course the extreme right.
Never forget 😡
Every account and certainly every institution that believes in civil liberties, religious freedom, and commercial rights ought to be promoting this. It's the one means we have of being heard. https://t.co/VaO6kH0WoH
