My god the Irony and Hypocrisy of this new Biden administration.
Lets see, we have a press conference, on federal land, in a federal building, discussing how important Bidens new mask mandate is that makes it illegal not to wear a mask on federal land or in federal buildings...
and yet, the speaker isnt wearing a mask, literally as she explains why we the public will get arrested for doing the very thing she is doing as she announces it, and the very same thing Biden did just the day before.
Biden is and always has been above the law and this is just more of the same, take away everyone else's rights, but of course it never applies to Biden.

@freemo Biden and the speaker aren’t the same person
@louiscouture ummm, obviously.. nor did I suggest they were. This is why I pointed out how **both** of them (as seperate people and all) violated the very law they just enforced.
@freemo but I think Biden was alone in the capitol at the point where he didn’t wear a mask
1) He was not alone, in fact the speaker even pointed out in her response that he wasnt alone mentioning some of the people that surrounded him.
2) the law he passed does **not** make exemptions for being alone or for when you have distance between yourself and others. So even if he was alone or sufficiently distances this is no excuse if we are to judge him by the same standard the order he passed judges us.
@freemo maybe it’s just a mistake or forgot to put them on. Sure he should have put on that mask but he still did it 99% or the time, is that really worth cancelling him over this? Also, Joe Biden didn’t wore a mask before the law took place, he isn’t breaking his own laws, because the law wasn’t in effect.
@louiscouture That is some weak excuse man... I never said he broke the law for starters, I said he was a hypocrite.
Second if he feels it so strongly that it should be illegal then he should be walking around doing it, the fact taht he did it less than 24 hours before signing a law doesnt get him off the hook.
Third if its so easy to "just forget", and if that is entierly excusable then.. and ill say this slowly... dont... make... it... a... law.
Fourth and more important.. no I wouldnt cancel Joe biden **just** for this, the laundry list of horrifically immoral things that man has done wouldn't have this small infraction anywhere near the top of it. He was canceled long long ago before this particular misstep. But it does show my judgement of his character as a horrible person is consistent and correct.
Executive orders can and do apply to people who aren't federal employees, but only when on federal land (which is the point). The federal government basically only has jurisdiction on federal land. For many things that means they cant touch you with an EO 99% of the time, but if its a federal matter then you are entierly beholden to it.
Take, for example, the EOs Trump passed that insisted illegal immigrants trying to cross the border be detained and tried, and his EOs around deportation. Obviously those people effected were not federal employees, but he was able to effect them because crossing borders is federal jurisdiction.
If it only applies to federal employees then why is the first of his two EO specific to civilians on planes? Your argument makes no sense, EOs 100% can effect anyone in a place with federal jurisdiction.
His first order literally doesnt allow people to enter the USA on a plane if they refuse to wear a mask, how arwe foreigners on planes federal employees now?
A quote on it for you:
The order covers interstate travel, the White House says. It applies to commercial aircraft, trains, public maritime vessels, including ferries, and intercity buses. The order also covers “public transportation,” defined broadly under a U.S. code section as “continuing shared-ride surface transportation services that are open to the general public or open to a segment of the general public defined by age, disability or low income.”
a foreigner may be denied entry (entry discretion for foreigners is already executive purveiw), a federal employee can be fired, a private citizen.. could be made to leave a building?
biden can't sign an EO saying everyone must cram dildos down their mouth and jail them if they don't. there's nothing to charge you with for failure to gargle the dildo.
they have to charge you with a crime under a law.
which violating an EO is not.
