The civil rights division of the Justice Department is threatening to sue five Republican states – Iowa, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Utah — for voting to ban mask mandates.
The Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department is investigating the states even though the states have a right to vote and pass public health laws. The states don’t want the children to be forced to wear masks.
The states want children’s civil rights protected and the civil rights division is trying to claim that it’s a violation of their civil rights by not forcing them to wear masks.
It’s bizarre.
If a parent wants your child to wear a mask in school, that child can. There’s no ban on mask-wearing. There’s a ban on mandates.
The whole thing is bogus.
Florida has a large number of people with COV so Governor DeSantis signed an executive order on July 30th saying schools cannot mandate students wear masks. That’s allegedly illegal, but you can wear a mask if you want to wear one.
A month later, a Florida judge, John Cooper, said the executive order by DeSantis is illegal. The judge claimed it’s not within his authority and it’s unconstitutional according to the Florida Constitution.
The Florida education commissioner of Florida, Richard Corcoran, says he’s not going to obey the judge.
Richard Corcoran is withholding money from two districts — Alachua and Broward — for refusing to comply and stop mandating the wearing of masks.
Now, Richard Corcoran is going to be criminally charged, not the governor, because he is the one who is defying the judge’s order.
That’s it for now.

The Federal government is REALLY bad and corrupt. The DOJ is one of the worst organizations in the government. It’s very name has become Newspeak. Might at well start calling it the Ministry of Love.
The DOJ can do as it wants, because it will, however, just to be clear, the Federal Government cannot create a law against this, and this is a State authority, so, DOJ is basically wasting taxpayer money for a frivolous lawsuit, seeing as the only thing the State is doing is preventing coercion by masking, however, individual choices are not… Read more »
COVID has become total political. There is no science when Democrats are in Charge. European Studies and a hundred years of Military research clearly show that Masks are useless against a virus. Then there is the issue of the Vaccines themselves. All indications are that we have “leaky” vaccines, but any real scientist is shut up when he brings up… Read more »
The DOJ needs a new name because the “Justice” doesn’t apply any more. And judging by their actions to force children to wear masks, their civil rights division should not even exist because they obviously don’t know what civil rights are.
I call them the ‘Department of Just Us’.
It looks like China Joe’s wingman is also becoming his enforcer.
Something is up in the Biden Administration. When career people leave, you know something is wrong.

Democrats disobey judges orders everyday and get away with it. Tell the kangaroo court judge to pound sand. And woe be to any prosecutor who takes the case.
