Forced masking of kids is ineffective but the evidence of psychological harm is mounting.
DHSS COVID-19 data in Missouri’s school districts in the new year show that non-masked districts fared the same or better than masked districts. #NoMaskMandates
For example, Ritenour (unmasked) had 2.4% of its student body test positive for COVID, while St. Charles (masked) had 3.12% of its student body test positive.
Parkway (masked) had 4% of its student body test positive for COVID, while Wentzville (unmasked) had 2.6% of its student body test positive.
Lindbergh (masked) had 3.37% of its student body test positive for COVID, while Northwest R-1 (unmasked) had 3.05% of its student body test positive.
Not to mention 90% of school districts DON’T have mask mandates.

The effort to indoctrinate our kids through the divisive lens of #CriticalRaceTheory is happening in the heartland. Springfield Public Schools has been caught red handed & now are refusing to provide documents we’ve requested.
According to our lawsuit, in one training, Springfield Public Schools' teachers were instructed to consult an "oppression matrix" and determine where they fall on that matrix. #CRT
See for yourself:
Additionally, at other trainings, Springfield Public Schools' teachers were presented with two images that classify “education funding from property tax" as "covert white supremacy," among other examples. #CRT
Leftists in the US are increasingly weaponizing investigations to persecute & prosecute their opponents for politics and policy differences. It’s conduct found in a banana republic where the authoritarian state punishes its political enemies with prosecutions in search of crimes.
It’s antithetical to America’s founding which rejected the idea and practice of those in power punishing political opponents for vague and ambiguous “crimes against the state.” Instead, the Founders chose to create a country of laws, not of men.
Rather than using the slimmest majority in modern history to enact bills that would fix problems in our election system, Democrats seem maniacally focused on making sure they maintain power.
Many solutions that until recently had bipartisan support as set forth by the Carter-Baker Commission have been set aflame by the Democrats drunk with power and beholden to the radical left.
#HR1 would codify many of the very problems America experienced in 2020 & leaves the door wide open to election fraud. Instead of bringing America together, this bill would pull us further apart as elections would become more politicized, as Dems use #SB1 to secure lasting power.
From requiring a mask outdoors, to subjecting citizens to gov’t pre-approval for a BBQ, to restricting the free exercise of religion — enough is enough
The unending control over people’s lives must end — that’s why I filed suit against St. Louis Co today
3 weeks ago I sent a letter to St Louis Co expressing deep concern about the ongoing Stay-At-Hone-Order & asked for evidence for their extreme restrictions. Not only did they ignore our request for justification, they pulled a bait and switch & issued a new amended order
After review of the amended order it become clear, given the number of typos & blatant inconsistencies that this was rushed out the door in an attempt to appease our office and avoid litigation.
The PA Sup Ct decision-allowing ballots after the election without even postmark overstepped its constitutional authority, encroached on PA leg authority & violated the Election Clauses. Therefore, we are seeking #SCOTUS review & reversal of the PA Sup Ct. wsj.com/livecoverage/t…
The PA leg decided to allow mail in voting ONLY if ballots were received by Election Day. The PA Ct rewrote the law to allow ballots to be counted days AFTER the election & not even postmarked. We’re asking #SCOTUS to take the case & reverse. Legislatures set rules for elections
Further, the PA Supreme Court supercharged concern of mail in ballot fraud by allowing mail in ballots to be received several days after Election Day without a postmark. Americans deserve to have faith in their elections. Big important principals are at stake here.
St. Louis prosecutor Kim Gardner is engaged in a political prosecution.
I entered the case seeking a dismissal.
As AG I have a duty to protect the fundamental rights of all Missourians including the right to keep & bear arms in self-defense of one's person & home.
A THREAD
The right to defend one’s person, family, home and property has deep roots in Missouri law. Self-defense is the central component of the right to keep & bear arms, which receives the highest protection from the MO Constitution. #2A
MO statutes specifically authorize citizens to use firearms to deter assailants & protect themselves, their families & homes from threatening or violent intruders. #2A
