I guess the air marshals and agencies maintaining the no fly list are too busy harassing protesters, right? Iā€™m sure the airlines have no problems enforcing their policies without help. :roll_eyes: Even if they required a form signed by a physician, folks like this would find one to do their bidding.

He also better have a damn compelling reason to be flying, too. Thatā€™s not covered under HIPPA. If itā€™s not essential travel, they should have kicked him off the flight.

The airports should have a non-flying plane to load up pre-flight, in order for anti-maskers to expose their true mission, and then just move everybody over to the REAL flight, leaving the anti-masker stuck behind.
A little more time needed for a plane dedicated to the task, but could save a lot of time and a lot of frustration for the compliant travelers.

I mean, not really, but thereā€™s gotta be a way to avoid time-consuming anti-mask shenanigans.

Sinclair only exists because Reagan and Clinton deregulated the radio and TV industries.

Broadcasters once had to offer time for opponents to refute blatant propaganda, and it was illegal for one person or company to own dozens of stations and transmitters. There is nothing stopping elected officials from putting the old rules back in place. They would just have to choose to do it.

Fun facts about the presidential rheas, called Emas in Brazil: These birds are kept in the palace gardens due to the presence of snakes. Rheas eat snakes.

Some veterinarians and biologists say that these animals generally do not attack humans. There are records of these creatures attacking the dogs of former presidents Dilma Roussef and Michel Temer. People say that the dogs liked to tease the poor rheas.

Iā€™ve never seen a rhea in my life, just another bird with a similar name, but not related to it.

I saw both, semi-tame (the rhea was a juvenile) hanging around a lodge I stayed at outside of Bonito. We killed a bunch of hand-sized spiders that had infiltrated my room after our guide said they were venomous, and the Seriema immediately recognized the sound of sandals striking concrete and raced over to be fed the dead spiders.

The other cool thing about them:
