K. Says an appeal from the court will have to go through the appellate court and not directly to the Texas Supreme Court. The Dallas and San Antonio cases also went through the appellate court first.

That is good news. Hopefully, it helps slow it down some.

most of abbots bans against masks in schools are now moot. his ban applied to vaccines operating under emergency use. now that the vax is approved his ban is meaningless

the lawsuit texas files against san antonio for its mask mandate was withdrank today…

There is nothing more stupid than calling mask wearing mandates in the middle of a pandemic “tyranny”.

I cannot believe we are 18 months in and still people are standing on the idea that mask orders are the Worst Threat To Personal Freedoms Ever.

Link to a single post that claims “mask orders are the Worst Threat To Personal Freedoms Ever.”

You should really stop trolling.

Since I am running for local office, I see the antimaskers’ tactics up close.

They are definitely using language and tactics to send the message that this is a Huge Massive Threat to Our Freedoms.

And you yourself used the word “Tyranny” to describe it.

So did you run for office and did you run as a Republican?

Yep…libs have done so much for the good of Texas. Just consider what they’ve done for Austin?

Dems sure love mandates or actually Tyranny even though we all know masks don’t do anything. They don’t make kids wear masks in Europe.

So I take it you not one didn’t run as a Republican like you claim to be, you didn’t run at all.

I ran for office and I am a Republican.

But I ran as someone who is interested in making sure our kids can get the best education they can.

Which is neither a Democratic nor a Republican thing.

No…I listened to people call masks tyranny on the level of Nazi Germany or Britain against the colonies.

I saw and heard Majorie Taylor Green compare these mandates to the Holocaust.

Sorry you feel the need to rationalize away their ridiculous overreaction because you are politically aligned with them.

Of course. Why are you fixated on the recall of Texas’ Governor Abbott?

I doubt anyone has called masks tyranny. Rather they are calling mask-mandates tyranny.

The holocausts began with the imposition of lesser infringements to freedoms before more serious sanctions were imposed. Therefore the comparison of mask mandates and the demonization of mask-rebels to the MO of the holocaust and the warnings of a slippery slope are appropriate.

There is no recall for a Governor in Texas nor is Abbott as unpopular in Texas as he may be in Australia.

The Texas Tribune – 5 Nov 21

Greg Abbott leads Beto O’Rourke by 9 percentage points in hypothetical...

The poll also found that potential candidate Matthew McConaughey is not universally beloved by Texans. About a quarter of respondents had an unfavorable opinion of the movie star who has flirted with running for governor.
