THREAD: CDC is ensuring vaccine-hesitant or vaccine-opposed will remain that way w/ this nonsense (as reported by @nytimes. Purported reason for reversal is "reports of rising breakfthrough infections w/ the Delta variant." But "reports" is not science. 1/
2/ What is science is this study showing Pfizer 88% effective against Delta variant. Times' article referenced only May study on effectiveness of vaccine. foxbusiness.com/markets/pfizer…
3/ So reversing course based on "not science" while ignoring "science" is going to make Americans less likely to believe anything CDCs says, especially since Fauci already told us he tells Americans what he thinks we can handle, i.e., % need for herd immunity.
4/4 Add to people claiming everyone should mask since you don't know who hasn't been vaccinated and school unions continuing to push for masks at school (if kids are even at school). A gov't that lies, shades, spins, manipulates will never be trusted.
Post-Twitt: If gov't (and Americans--and I'm one of them) wants folks to get vaccinated, transparency, honesty, and respect for contrary views is needed!

🔥Pending before SCOTUS right now is petition for cert in what is one of most consequential constitutional cases related to liberty in the form of a free-market. And yet, few have taken notice of the case. In short, EPA decided who to give market share to based on "equity." 1/
@NCLAlegal 3/3 Here is the docket for those interested. It is truly appalling unelected bureaucrats are deciding whose business to kill--including taking their market share to give to so-called disadvantaged folks who never built business w/ sweat equity.
THREADETTE: SCOTUS's decision yesterday in Callais case striking down Louisiana's unconstitutional race-based districts prompted voters who brought challenge to immediately file an application asking Court to rush case back to district court so the districts could be redrawn. 1/
2/ The losers who want to continue to discriminate based on race in district mapping oppose sending case back to district court on expedited basis. And Alito ordered them to respond by 4 p.m. Fact that pro-discrimination side wants to delay case with midterms around corner makes
3/ me wonder, given @MZHemingway reporting in Alito, that Leftist justices dragged feet in Dobbs, holding up opinion by delaying dissent and THEN unnecessarily citing another SCOTUS decision that had not yet been released, whether the Leftist justices did the same here BUT
2/ Trump Admin. prior comments indicated they would secure Strait of Hormuz & possibly take over Kharg Island to get oil moving. Last night, Trump indicated we will lead efforts to open Strait but those impacted need to join fight. Now, this may be misdirection to attack Kharg,
3/ Or Trump decided, we're not going to risk Americans' lives to do either if those in need of that oil won't step up. But we will continue the much safer bombing which will eventually (which he suggested may be about 3 weeks), lead to Strait opening b/c Iran is on last legs
4/ of weapons & leaders. Trump may well have thought Iran would be Venezuela & he'd be done within days or a few weeks, but he's making clear we will continue bombing until morale improves. He's betting on short-term pain being greatly overset by Iran's full destruction.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: @realDailyWire and @FDRLST scored a victory in their lawsuit against the State Department, filing today a Joint Motion for Entry of a Consent Decree. I was thrilled to lead this litigation with the @NCLAlegal team! 1/
