TEXT ON SCREEN: RULES FOR THEE NOT FOR ME

MALE TV REPORTER: Tonight while Governor [of California] Newsom is telling all of us to have Thanksgiving dinner outside, he's facing some new fallout for that fancy birthday dinner party he went to at the French Laundry.[1]

[cut]

GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM: It was in Napa which is the orange status, relatively loose compared to some other counties. Ah, it was to be an outdoor ah, ah, restaurant.

[cut]

ANOTHER MALE TV REPORTER: Raising some new questions about the governor's claims that the dinner was outdoors, as he has repeatedly claimed.

[cut]

GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM: And I let my guard down, and I apologize for it.

FEMALE TV REPORTER: Mayor [of Chicago] Lori Lightfoot has been adamant that people stay home and socially distance for weeks.

[cut]

MAYOR LORI LIGHTFOOT: I can't make this any clearer. You absolutely must stay at home. We will cite you. And of we need to we will arrest you and we will take you to jail. Period. There should be nothing unambiguous about that.

[cut]

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: I guess you would all imagine that a lot of people were surprised when she made a trip to the hair salon.

[cut]

MAYOR LORI LIGHTFOOT: I take my personal hygiene very seriously. As I said, I felt like I needed to um, have a haircut.

[cut]

VOICE OF FEMALE TV REPORTER: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi under fire tonight after security footage showed her inside a San Francisco hair salon that's closed to the general public.

[cut]

SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE NANCY PELOSI: It was a set up. So I take responsibility for falling for a setup. And that's all I'm going to say on that. [cut] I think that they owe, that the salon owes me an apology.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Almost immediately after telling the rest of New York City to stay inside for example, Mayor Bill De Blasio loaded up his SUV with government bodyguards and headed for the gym across town in Brooklyn.

[cut]

MAYOR BILL DE BLASIO: I need exercise. And again, I have to stay healthy so I can make the decisions for the people of this city.

[cut]

VOICE OF FEMALE TV REPORTER: The leader is embroiled in controversy for attending a party at 10 Downing Street in May of 2020. At the time, the country was under a strict government-imposed lockdown.

[cut]

UK PRIME MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON: That I myself fell short when it came to observing the very rules which the government I lead had introduced to protect the public—

[cut]

CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN TRUDEAU: Let's put into practice what it truly means to love our neighbors as ourselves by making sacrifices to protect their health. Let's stay home for them.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Not long after recording the video you just saw, Trudeau left the capital and traveled all the way to Quebec to visit his family at their lake house. Just like you'd want to do on Easter, if you were allowed to do that. But you're not allowed. So stop complaining.

[cut]

VOICE OF MALE TV REPORTER: Former president tweeted: "It might be Labor Day weekend, but let's all remember that we're still in the middle of a pandemic. Wear a mask, practice social distancing, and follow the experts. It'll save lives."

Former President can be seen in pictures hitting the dance floor without a mask or
told that he danced all night and had a great time.

MALE TV REPORTER: San Francisco mayor London Breed was defiant today when asked about video of her without a mask at a nightclub earlier this week.

FEMALE TV REPORTER: Governor [of Michigan] Whitmer is facing some backlash after a picture surfaced of her dining at a restaurant with at least 12 other people at a table, a violation of the state Health Department's epidemic order.

[cut]

GOVERNOR GRETCHEN WHITMER: It's, you know, it was an honest mistake and I, I have apologized for it.

[cut]

ROD MELONI: Well, you know, the governor spent a lot of time asking Michiganers not to go on spring break, particularly in Florida. It took the governor's office a couple of months to confirm it, but she indeed flew from Lansing to West Palm Beach in a private jet on March 12th, spent the weekend with her father, and headed back to Lansing on March 15th.

[cut]

TUCKER CARLSON: Again and again they do the very things they punish us for doing. When they're caught, they acknowledge no shame. They are entirely lacking in self-awareness. They have no idea how absurd they are.

On November 20, 2022, 85% of Stanford University’s Faculty Senate voted to condemn Dr. Scott Atlas, a former chief of radiology at the Stanford University Medical Center who was serving on President Trump’s White House Coronavirus Task Force. The Stanford faculty pilloried Atlas for questioning the efficacy of state-enforced lockdowns, face masks, and social distancing protocols, even arguing that his claims were “anathema to our community, our values and our belief that we should use knowledge for good.” A few weeks after the Faculty Senate rendered its verdict, the Academic Advisory Board of the University of California’s National Center for Free Speech and Civic Engagement held a meeting in which its members questioned whether Atlas’ COVID-19 pronouncements were protected by academic freedom.

....

Why did the Stanford Faculty Senate and the National Center for Free Speech and Civic Engagement feel the need to castigate Atlas? In the years since the pandemic, experts have acknowledged both the negligible effects of the lockdowns on mortality rates and the deleterious effects of COVID-19 policy on childhood development. Given everything we know now, was Atlas’ perspective really deserving of institutional rebuke?

I saw Dr. Atlas speak in person a year ago. He was very clear and impressive.

Let's recap, what was the Devil?

Sunshine / Vitamin D
Exercise
Ivermectin
Hydroxychloroquine
Social contact
Going to Church
Taking your kids to school
Walking anyway which you wanted at stores.

So much of what I took as truth has turned out to be lies. I was a pretty good skeptic before, but now I believe NOTHING. I'm, like fucking Missouri - the "Show Me State." Tell me why or GTFOOMF (cue up Isely Brothers for the ref).
