The kind of teacher who begs to keep schools closed while being in vacation somewhere I presume like the one in Porto Rico? I got the feeling then homeschool will become more popular.
Fuck, they're already at home. Might as well take advantage of it.

The usual bullshit from the county I live in.
BREAKING NEWS FROM THE CARMEL PINE CONE
January 23, 2021, 5:28 p.m.
ICU, CASE NUMBERS LOOKING BETTER, BUT VACCINE SITUATION WORSENS
There was a healthy dose of good news for Monterey County today, at least as far as the numbers of new coronavirus cases and the state’s scorecard for ICU availability are concerned. But prospects for expanded vaccine availability have gotten murkier, even as media reports say California has sunk to dead last among the 50 states for usage of vaccine supplies.
This afternoon’s Monterey County health department update of coronavirus infections among county residents shows a total of 1,867 new cases over the last seven days — more than one-third fewer than the 3,024 cases the week before, and fewer than half as many as the 4,043 cases for the week ending Jan. 9. In fact, this week’s total was the lowest for any seven-day period in Monterey County since mid-December. It also lowered the county’s 7-day average of new cases per 100,000 residents to 58.3, which is the lowest it’s been since Dec. 17.
This week’s 1,867 cases were distributed as follows: 1,230 in Salinas and the Salinas Valley and 389 in the Monterey Peninsula, including 177 in Seaside, 88 in Marina, 55 in Monterey, 39 in Pacific Grove, 11 in Big Sur, nine in Carmel area (92923), 4 in Carmel Valley and three in Carmel-by-the-Sea. The total in Pebble Beach declined by one during the week, and 4 cases were from an unspecified area.
Even that good news was surpassed by the announcement this morning from the California Department of Public Health that ICU availability in the Greater Bay Area Region, of which Monterey County is a part, had jumped to 23.4 percent — well above the 15 percent threshold for the region to be freed from the shutdown order that went into effect here Dec. 13. When (or if) that means the order will be lifted remains to be seen, though the Greater Sacramento Region had the order lifted last week for its 11 counties, based on improving projections for ICU capacity even though its ICU availability has not reached the 15 percent threshold.
The latest numbers for hospitalizations at Community Hospital are in line with the CDPH’s optimistic regional assessment. CHOMP said today it has 31 coronavirus-positive inpatients, including six in the hospital’s ICU — a significant improvement after weeks of the hospital being at or above capacity.
But all that is tempered by a report this morning that California now ranks last in the United States when it comes to usage of the state’s allocation of coronavirus vaccine doses. Just 37.3 percent of the state’s vaccines have actually been injected into someone’s arm, a story at sfgate.com says — worse than any other state.
What percent of Monterey County’s vaccines have been administered? We have no idea, because the county health department has never reported any such figure. We also have no idea how many doses have been allocated here.
The latest number we have for the county is 31,525 doses — and that’s a number given last Wednesday during a media briefing by health officer Dr. Ed Moreno, even as he provided no update on the prospects for the county to increase that number to a point where it would achieve parity based on population, much less get large numbers of county residents vaccinated.
But the situation is far worse than that. On the county health department’s official web page where the public is supposed to get information about the county’s vaccination program, the total number of doses in the county is said to be 24,150 — a number which hasn’t changed in two weeks and evidently has nothing to do with reality. While the public waits anxiously for news about when and where the various demographic groups in Monterey County can expect to get their inoculations, the utter failure to keep this web page current is the worst example yet — and there have been many — of the health department’s indifference to the needs of the public is it supposed to serve.

We haven't yet seen a national lockdown or mask mandate EO from Joe. I'd assume his puppetmasters are consulting with each other and their lawyers to see how to write one that would survive the inevitable constitutional challenge since no way are they not going to try this.
Maybe they're just dialing down the tension before firing the Joepedoes at the sinking ship that is the US economy? Still, I wouldn't want to be the federal judge that overturns this since that guy's name will be everywhere in the national news and have all the MSM talking heads and lunatics on Twitter calling him an alt-right Nazi insurrectionist murderer.
It's pretty sad that for every hardworking teacher out there you end up with plenty of people like this out to do nothing but collect a salary from their unionized job they basically can't be fired from. They're glorified daycare workers with no skills but keeping kids busy. Kids are suffering being locked in their homes with distractions and subpar education, losing precious time for everything in their childhood including educational development. Anyone who cares about child welfare should simply weep at what's happening when schools remain closed despite the Chinese virus being less lethal to under-20s than the seasonal flu. But I guess that's the wrong sort of emotional argument, let's think of grandma and Mrs. Lardass the sleepy school teacher who just has her class watch movies all day.

The Supreme Court didn't give a single shit about protecting election integrity, nor have they said a word about the state governors blatantly misusing their emergency powers outside of "helping" places of worship reopen. If the zombie's puppet masters decree the 100(+) day mask mandate and more lockdown bullshit, SCOTUS will likely just look the other way again.

Apparently, we don't need masks on federal property if we take a quick family photo, including with those not within our own household.
Another possibility:
Let's say the person is wealthy and retired. The person challenges the law and files an appeal with the circuit court and the government drops the charges. The appeals court decides the matter is moot and dismisses the case.
Here is what is going to happen. Someone will violate the mask mandate, probably a private citizen at a National Park or on federal grounds. The person will be fined for a few hundred dollars. The person will challenge the fee in court. The initial court will uphold the ruling and the news media / ass pat chasers will attack the person. The person will pay the fine and court costs.

It doesn't go to the Supreme Court at first, it goes to literally any federal court of which there are dozens. Any single federal judge anywhere can approve an injunction and suspend the EO based on it not being constitutional, just like Trump's Muslim ban did. Once it gets suspended, the government has to spend months appealing it to the courts of appeals and then finally to the SCOTUS. There's all sorts of federal judges out there so this is guaranteed to happen, what I'm less optimistic about is how long it will be suspended for if some circuit court or SCOTUS decides to remove the injunction.
I believe Biden's federal mask mandate is more likely to survive a constitutional challenge. Far less likely is one that overrides a state's own mandate because of state's rights issues. States set have always set their own public health policy.
So it'll probably be some asshole cop fining someone not on federal property under the federal one and not the state/local one that will be challenged.

Public school teachers have been fully exposed as political tools in many states. Anyone who sends their kid to a public school in the future is a retard.
In NJ, there are waiting lists for private (Catholic) schools where enrollment deposits are required just to be considered in case there's space. That's how many people are ditching the public school system—one of the most lauded public school systems, at that. Teachers unions are one of the worst institutions in America, only edged out by Congress and the intelligence agencies.

I know some of you don't believe me and think that I'm being optimistic, but I really don't think the U.S. is doing another national lockdown. We're way past that even being feasible economically or really just psychologically for the average American. Joe and his admin know they'd have to cough up biiig government bux to get even half of the states in compliance, and they sure as hell won't. Governors like DeSantis would fight it tooth and nail, and many police officers would refuse to enforce it as they've been doing.
What I do think will happen is that the masks will continue to be pushed, as will distancing, but as the year wears on and the vaccine campaign ramps up, people will start to seriously give up, especially as the weather grows warmer around the country.
Essentially, I think this is the last Year of the WuFlu. Yes, some autistic "protective" policy measures will stay in place, national panic will continue to ebb and flow, the media will milk it to death, and the CDC will change its mind about 100 times a day.
But ultimately, with the exception of the exceptional who refuse to leave their homes even after they're vaccinated, people are over this. The dissent will only grow. Give it time.

I know someone who at one point was a teacher and his building's Union rep that proudly parroted all the expected buzzwords and talking points. We lost touch at some point and reconnected recently. Now, he's a principal that posts about how much the state's lockdown rules and their impact on education and extracurricular activities hurts students both in terms of their academic performance and overall well-being. It's interesting to see just how based he's become now that he's not being influenced by union membership.

The Britbong propaganda department has been BTFO by the advertising standards people for going a bit too far this time. They still aired the ads in question for a week or two though, so the damage to the psyche of megadoomers has likely already been done regardless.

About time for a regional government in China to have a brain. Shanghai quarantine
FYI, a small area in Beijing (Da Xing) asked people to abandon their pets and many were righteously and justifiably angry.
And if you run out of food, you can always eat your dog or cat... alright that's a bit cruel, it's a step in the right direction and I'll be less mean.

WTF is wrong with the Britbong propaganda department? Did they want folks to get fat and unhealthy?
Eat your dog or cat. That remind me of some old jokes and old news about Chinese restaurants serving dog or cat meat.

No one wants a depression on their watch. The numbers will be fudged so victory can be claimed. The media will ignore it if they’re told to and life will go back to normal.

I suppose this thread works well enough to show you a snap of our city's Sunday morning program called "Our Issues Milwaukee." They talk about, ofc, 'black people problems' and Covid is a hot topic now because it's caused by racism, obv.
The liberals LOVE their haloed nogs. You cannot tell me that this is not on purpose.

I don't watch TV anymore so I didn't see it lmao. Gotta love when the UK openly recognises that most spreaders, i.e. people my age, don't watch TV much anymore and put an advert for those people up where, even if they did watch it, they couldn't put there in the first place.
