They’ve Got Us Right Where They Want Us (with thanks to a Ricochet friend for the idea)

The best argument I have ever heard against Executive Orders on Covid Response

From a judge in an Illinois court: “Before I rule, I’m advising everybody in this room, no public outbursts or displays. The court is still in session until you are told otherwise.
