Freshman Congressman Luke Letlow Dead of Covid.

April wasn't "initially". I already proved you wrong.

No, you didn't.

The recommendation was initial to the state mandates. IOW, the states didn't do mandates before the recommendations.

Still waiting for the so-called power grab explanation.

Tldr; Experts said all wear masks in March. First state mandate to wear masks in April.

@Buy1Sell2

So I'll continue to wait for @CaptainObvious or his representative to explain exactly what is this "power" that Dems are grabbing, and how the Dems politicized masks.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_...owards_using_masks_to_reduce_spread_by_wearer

"In late-March 2020, some government officials began to focus on the wearing of masks to help prevent transmission of COVID-19 as opposed to protecting the wearer; Commissioner of Food and Drugs Scott Gottlieb stated in a report that face masks would be "most effective" at slowing its spread if widely used (citing Hong Kong and South Korea as examples), as "they may help prevent people who are asymptomatically infected from transmitting the disease unknowingly".[23]

On March 30, Director of the CDC Robert R. Redfield stated that the organization was evaluating data regarding use of masks by the general public. The next day, President Donald Trump suggested in a White House Coronavirus Task Force briefing that scarves or "something else" could be worn as face coverings. COVID-19 response coordinator Deborah Birx stated that the task force was discussing the addition of face masks to its guidance.[23]

On April 3, 2020, the CDC issued guidance recommending that non-medical face coverings be worn in public when social distancing is difficult to maintain, such as at grocery stores and pharmacies, and especially in areas with significant amounts of community transmission.[28][29] The CDC published tutorials on making non-medical face masks, including a design only requiring a t-shirt and rubber bands, and no sewing.[1][23]"

"In response to a spiking number of coronavirus cases, many states have begun mandating face masks in public spaces. But while face masks are now required in 16 states, some states were ahead of the curve, putting laws on the books as early as the beginning of April. We're checking in on the five states who were quick to mandate face coverings to see where their coronavirus numbers currently stand."

Even here well after"initially", Fauci says not to wear masks.

Wow, Health Jesus is caught with his pants down

Do you have any evidence to support the claim that the left politicized masks as alleged by @CaptainObvious , and defended by you?

I've shown that the first state to mandate masks, did so only after the CDC recommended masks be worn by all where distancing wasn't possible.

Correct but that wasn't initially. At the outset, we were told no masks. As far as evidence of Left's politicization of WuFlu, the mass implementation of mail-in ballots is prima facie evidence of that.

Please explain to us how mail-in ballots are evidence that mask mandates are a Left power grab.

Mail-in ballots are evidence of Left's politicization and power grab, not necessarily of masks. The Left used the WuFlu in order to set up a scheme that could be easily manipulated in order to steal the election with fraud.

Masks and Lockdowns are a Leftist power-grab in that they are initiated by Leftists who are seeking to impose their unlawful will on the people and consolidate their power. By dictating and getting away with it, they make it easier for themselves to initiate other freedom-grabbing measures without worrying about consequence.

Republicans have won the popular vote once in the last 30 years, it's just a matter of time before enough people migrate and start turning more states in the electoral. Not sure it's a great thing, but it's happening. Not to mention old people are generally conservative, and sadly we may have half a million less of those before this is over. No manipulation needed.

Ok, you've moved to a new topic. My post was specific to masks, re: @CaptainObvious 's post.

Haven't we had mail-in ballots for many years?
Weren't the lockdowns a result of the recommendation of experts?
Didn't other countries lockdown?
China already has all the power over its people, why did they lockdown?

The Left used the WuFlu in order to set up a scheme that could be easily manipulated in order to steal the election with fraud

What scheme did they set up as a result of covid, that wasn't present in prior elections before covid?

Masks and Lockdowns are a Leftist power-grab in that they are initiated by Leftists who are seeking to impose their unlawful will on the people and consolidate their power.

The law allows for lockdowns, as you've seen.
What power is being grabbed by a governor who uses their already obtained power of their office to initiate lockdowns?
How are governors more powerful after locking down citizens?
Aren't the states' revenue hurt by lockdowns?
Won't the governor lose votes after locking people and businesses down?
Wouldn't those two points alone make them less powerful?

By dictating and getting away with it,

Presidents issue lawful orders.
Governors issue lawful orders.
Mayors issue lawful orders.
LEO's issue lawful orders.

On what basis do you assert that governors are dictators when they issue lawful lockdowns that are the recommendation of normal expert channels.

Haven't courts upheld limited lockdowns ... even repeating lockdowns?
Are courts in on the Left conspiracy?
Are Right courts in on it too?
