According to CDC rules, cruise ships that don’t meet certain vaccination thresholds for passengers and crew must first do a successful test cruise before they can restart revenue cruises. “Our intention is to comply with all federal, state and local laws,” RCI said via email. This is far from settled. The naysayers will be thrilled by an outbreak on a ship. CDC and Coast Guard haven’t cleared but two ships for “revenue” cruises. Don’t think the Biden administration wouldn’t love to shove this up De Santa’s’ nose?

Re #2, can you please provide a link to that CDC rule about vaccination. Although I can find that they recommend vaccination, there does not seem to be any requirement. https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/notices/covid-4/coronavirus-cruise-ship

I hope this does turn out badly for DeSantis. I applaud most everything he’s doing but as #2 points out the left would love to use this to destroy him. Not sure he should make this the hill to die on.

Los Angeles residents are signing petitions for the recall of city council member Mike Bonin, as public outrage against his efforts to house the city’s homeless at the beach continues to grow. The Los Angeles Times reported this weekend on the deteriorating conditions near Venice Beach, which has always attracted eccentric people but has become so unlivable that residents are afraid to walk there or even to look at what is happening in tent cities on their doorstep: A little over a decade ago, things began to change.

The number of COVID-19 deaths in Alameda County, California, fell by about 25 percent after health officials changed their methodology for total mortality count, removing deaths that weren’t a “direct result” of the disease or “in whom death caused by COVID-19 could not be ruled out.” (Snip)“Alameda County previously included any person who died while infected with the virus in the total COVID-19 deaths for the County,” the county’s public health department said in a statement (pdf).

Thanks to President Biden, the evil reign of that right-wing militarist “holiday” has finally ended, supplanted by a new “memorial day” weekend commemorating the Tulsa Race Massacre, which occurred on May 31 and June 1, 1921 (initially, Memorial Day was going to be replaced by “Enjoy the Long Weekend Day,” in which Americans would be forced to gawk at photos of the cackling harpy who serves as vice president.

The United States gave over $800,000 to the top-level laboratory in China from which some believe the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus escaped, according to newly released documents. Internal emails from officials with the National Institutes of Health and an office inside the agency, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), show they discussed in 2020 a question from Republican members of Congress regarding how much the agencies sent to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The total amount sent between Fiscal Years 2014 and 2019 was $826,777,(Snip) went to EcoHealth Alliance, which channeled money to the lab for the purpose of “understanding the risk of bat coronavirus emergence.”

Joe Biden on Friday said he was “very confident” in Dr. Anthony Fauci when asked about his embattled medical advisor during a press conference in Delaware. Fauci has been under fire from Republicans after explosive emails released earlier this week showed that he was aware of evidence supporting the Wuhan lab-leak theory, and quietly worked with self-interested scientists to cover it up. The White House, meanwhile has defended the longtime National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director. “Do you have confidence in Dr. Fauci?” a reporter shouted as Biden was leaving (Snip) Biden poked his head out from behind the door to answer the question. “Yes, I’m very confident in

Red China turned the world upside down last year by unleashing a virus that was just deadly enough to create a panic. Politicians knew not what to do. They shut down the economy, creating an even larger mess. But we were saved by a wise, wily, septuagenarian federal official who knew exactly what to do. Oh, it was not Tony Fauci, the man the media heralded. A year later, the world has read his emails and realizes that Fauci worked with Red China in creating this monster. No, the hero was the man the media scorned, President Donald John Trump. Under his leadership, Operation Warp Speed delivered not just one, not just

Former President Obama criticized voting laws being passed by Republicans across the country, saying that such changes to the voting system is "rigging the game." He said during an Economic Club of Chicago event Friday about the new election integrity law in Georgia: That's the kind of dangerous behavior that we're going to have to push back on. Obama suggested that urban areas will face more barriers in order to vote, alleging that the law made a "different set of rules for how votes are counted in Atlanta versus how they're counted in the rest of Georgia."

Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton weighed in on Republican state legislatures pursuing basic election integrity measures in their respective states, contending that it “shouldn’t be a partisan issue” to reject such efforts. In a Monday social media post, Clinton likened the left’s radical attempt to overhaul U.S. election — stripping states of basic election safeguards such as voter ID — to “preserving America’s democracy.” “Preserving America’s democracy shouldn’t be a partisan issue. But the fact is that Republican-led legislatures have enacted at least 22 news laws this year restricting access to voting,” she claimed alongside a map from the Brennan Center for Justice.
