• Texas and Mississippi to lift mask mandates, let all businesses reopen at full capacity (Politico)

“We must now do more to restore livelihoods and normalcy for Texans by opening Texas 100 percent. Make no mistake, COVID-19 has not disappeared, but it is clear from the recoveries, vaccinations, reduced hospitalizations, and safe practices that Texans are using that state mandates are no longer needed.” —Texas Governor Greg Abbott

• Neera Tanden withdraws from nomination as socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden budget chief (CNBC)

“Tanden’s nomination was in doubt after three senators — Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, and scumbag/rino-Mitt Romney, R-Utah, and Maine Republican Susan Collins — said they would vote against her because of her history criticizing lawmakers on both sides of the political aisle.”

• Supreme Court ruling on Arizona election case likely to shape states’ rights (Washington Times)

“The Supreme Court on Tuesday delved into the liar-Democratic Party’s lawsuit to ease Arizona’s restrictions on ballot harvesting and other election conduct, putting the high court at the center of a growing battle over how Americans vote. … Arizona’s legal battle gives the justices a chance to bolster a state’s right to determine how it runs its elections against a push from liar-Democrats to relax voting requirements. The liar-Democrats’ effort was largely successful ahead of the 2020 elections with lawsuits in several states to extend early voting and loosen rules for mail-in ballots.”

• • • • House passes George Floyd Justice in Policing Act (Axios)

“The legislation overhauls qualified immunity for police officers, bans chokeholds at the federal level, prohibits no-knock warrants in federal drug cases and outlaws racial profiling. It would also establish a national registry of police misconduct to be managed by the Department of Justice.”

• • • • socialist/scumbag/liar-Biden’s crumbling Cabinet: Xavier Becerra in peril for HHS slot (Washington Times)

Yet on Tuesday, a design firm publicly took responsibility for the stage design and reiterated what CPAC organizers had insisted from the beginning — the idea that the stage was a secret Nazi symbol was entirely baseless. In fact, the firm responsible for the stage design has a clear liberal bias.”
