Texas Gov. Abbott just announced all businesses are to open 100% capacity, and NO MORE MASK MANDATE!
This was just announced live. I'll post a link or video or something as soon as I can find it.

My best friend is in Wisonsin, and the legislation struck his mask mandate down and he just declared a new emergency and put a new one in place. It's some kind of loop hole in their laws. She is soooooo mad about it. She doesn't wear one at all, and just yesterday she got yelled at in Costco about it.
I'm still trying to figure out HOW the virus is different in Texas or Florida versus Wisconsin, or my state - Illinois! Oh, the ONE difference I do see - Texas and Florida have wonderful REPLUBLICAN governors - Illinois and Wisconsin have evil demonrat governors! ARGH!
It's especially interesting when you look at the numbers... seem to be pretty much the same whether you lock down and wear masks or if you don't. Almost as if masks and lockdowns don't do anything. lol
I have to say the curfew is my favorite part. The virus only comes out at night lol It's apparently a vampire virus.
I think the rationale is that at night people congregate and fill bars, get sloppy and close, talk loud, etc.
But that just means people will still do that, only earlier xD
Thats the lie. Congregating results in red pulling and collaborating.
Exactly mama!
North Dakota Vs South Dakota - can extrapolate too because similar demographics and population densities.
Yeah the curfews were real scientific /s
Bigoted slap against albinos out of nowhere
Floridians would have dropped dead all over the streets if this was ever a serious thing! My fam is in tx....i bet they still wear one ?
I'm in Texas and I see the mask wearers every day. Sat at a light yesterday and looked over and saw a woman alone in the car next to me, masked up and spraying sanitizer on her hands.
Texan here, too. Saw a lady in goggles, gloves and 2 masks at my last doctor’s appointment. SMH
I’m from San Antonio.....plenty of libs in my neighborhood driving alone with masks, running/walking our neighborhood with them on too! Unbelievable if I could get through HEB without wearing one I would. I am hoping they remove the mandate for the stores! Governor Abbott has done a decent job for the state with this.
You can get through HEB without wearing one. I do it all the time.
Because everyone knows what HEB is
How do you manage that? Do you think they will discontinue the masks with this change?
Our governor (IL) is absolutely horrendous. There's been no justification for lockdowns or masks since last April when we understood what this was, yet he persists in stupidity.
It's been sad to see so many restaurants near me (lib area) have to shut down.
These people, the lockdown/mask Nazis, disgust me.
And there is the real reason for lockdowns...break the backbone of the nation. Small businesses. The Global elites need us broken and begging for the great reset.
Brghing them to please LET us breathe, LET us do business, LET us get a fucking haircut
Third is nothing but medical hegemony to enforce compliance control.
They are programming us to accept that a central govt gets to force us to surrender our livelihoods, our freedom to worship or associate, even our very IDENTITY AND INDIVIDUAL PERSONHOOD, EVEN OUR ABILITY TO SMILE AT OR TOUCH OUR FELLOW HUMANS, to the dictates of the almighty State.
And it worked. They achieved 99% compliance with the muzzle mandate.
They can keep hoping that happens. I’m not begging for their dumb Great Reset. I want my tax money in my pocket so I can finally afford my ideal home rather than going all over the place to other countries
Gov. Jabba's emergency powers EXPIRED April 9, 2020 but the IL legislature is too lazy/corrupt yo take back their power.
Yep exactly, he was even rebuked in court but it seemed like they just ignored the verdict.
DeSwine from Ohio has entered the chat.
Tell her to carry an inhaler-- saw that here and thought it was genius
I bring my cane (no longer need) and my wrist braces (no longer need) for high potential situations when not w hubby. Cosplay I guess. But the inhaler is genius.
Please leave the inhaler excuse for those with breathing difficulties so the left doesn't make up some stupid rule against it.
That wont happen
In other countries they're regulating the dispensing of inhalers because of this exact situation.
Bullshit, an empty one works just S well and there are millions out there. I ha e two in my truck right now and I don't even use em.
Says who?
To each his own
She is going to be doing research on exactly what the rules on medical exemptions are in her state. She actually does have mild asthma, so I do believe she qualifies. She ONLY gets hassled at Costco. And even then, it wasn't until she was checking out.
Rules?! They're are no rules governing your medical exemption from wearing a mask! Your body, your choice! She does not have to QUALIFY to breathe free if she wants to!
As if some twat at a store gets to determine the validity of her stated medical exemption?
I think not.
The issue is the moron at the cash register refused to check her out if she didn't put one on. She has 4 young children, and they are on a tight budget. Milk is FAR cheaper for her at Costco than any of the surrounding grocery stores. She doesn't have the luxury of just not going there.
Knowledge is power, so she wanted to know what to say or how to combat that. I know some people are born confrontational people, but for a lot of us it's really hard. Especially as women who were raised in the church to be meek and submissive, etc. We aren't those brash feminist type women. It's just tough. We are doing our best.
So I think she just doesn't want to get in a situation where they refuse to check her out because she has to get milk for her babies, and she can't afford it elsewhere because grocery prices are through the roof right now.
NO NEED TO LIE OR FAKE
I just say "DOCTORS SAID NOT TO WEAR IT, THANKS"
They did. Fauci himself, in fact, plus thousands of MDs screaming against this globalist malpractice.
To each his own
Thank you for clarifying. I was only going by what my friend said and had not looked into exactly what was going on for myself. Thank you for the info. It's so criminal what these evil tyrannical governors are doing. I can't wait to watch them all be taken down kicking and screaming to the gallows or at least GITMO depending on the severity of their crimes.
And to be clear for any glowies hanging around, I mean legally arrested, tried, and executed/imprisoned.
Would also accept God just striking them down with lightening. That would be awesome.
Can't believe they still get away with this shit. Just hang em already. Tjey are nothing
Too many people still buying it.
By the way, vegas opening all the way up except...you guessed it...mask. stay away until the idiot governor lifts it.
Hello again! I remember us discussing this in another thread. You like your governor yet? Mine still sucks and you can tell your Wisconsin friend that someone you know in Indiana is having the same problem!
I like him a tiny bit more than yesterday, but I still think he is only doing this to save face. The legislators were about to do this for him. 2 bills have been proposed that would stop his unconstitutional mask mandate, and he was called out hard by a rep.
So I still want to primary him. He was weak against tyranny for the last year. He is done in my book. I want a DeSantis for Texas. I wish we could steal him lol
No amount of freedom lost should be acceptable to any of us.
I’m with you. Abbott is not getting my vote next go around. He needs to be primaried out of office. He is a fence sitter and that’s how we got the first mask mandate from him. He’s trying to save face now because he is getting hammered with emails and messages. Screw him, he has been exposed.
I bet had the power grid situation not occurred he wouldn't be doing this. He's just trying to score some good PR.
I agree with you. I’d love to have someone like DeSantis or the South Dakota governor for my state. Can’t recall if I’ve told you or it was someone else but I tried digging into any updates from my legislature or governor and have heard nothing about us still being in a “state of emergency”. Our news talks about cases still but I or many others I know haven’t gotten sick and my family knows a lot of people, so not sure where these “cases” are coming from.
I’d love to get rid of our governor because of how he’s handled the past year but this is his second term, and he’s still better than a full Democrat even though he’s behaved a little bit like them.
I’m with you on the tyranny. We need to oust all who have betrayed us and our constitutional rights. America is one country that welcomes diversity and it’s disgusting that the uniparty has pushed division all last year while trying to make us totalitarian.
How was the CPAC speech by Trump? I didn’t know when or where it was on so I didn’t get to see it. There was a discussion thread here that I skimmed through to get an idea of what he said and opinions seemed mixed.
TEXAS!!
Dont be jealous yet. Business are still aloud to enforce masks. If you dont comply they can ask you to leave. If you dont leave or mask up they can use trespassing to enforce and involve police. Schools are allowed to enforce makes because they will decide based of Texas Education Agency and local health officials.
A step in the right direction!.....but still not over.
Announced on Texas Independence day to boot.
Damn fine catch anon. Nice.
Okay is the mask part immediate or is all of it going into effect on Wednesday? I was a little confused on that point.
This makes me so happy! I'm still going to do my best to primary his ass, though.
The only reason he is doing this is because Texas legislators were putting pressure on him and bills to overturn this were about to be voted on.
That sort of crap in Illinois even had some of the lefties talking "wait if this is so critical why doesn't it go into effect for another 3 days?"
Well to institute it the first time, I'm guessing they needed to give people a few days to be able to go out and get masks before it was enforced. Totally disagree with the entire thing, but I do remember it was harder to find masks back then.
No I'm talking about like the second or third time Prickster tried to close restaurants and bars.
But you can make a mask, remember?
lol
EXACTLY!!!!
Agreed, the fact he even made a mandate in the first place warrants to boot his ass out of a job. He has shown he has no problem restricting our rights whenever he feels like it.
March 10th
Boooooo!!!!
His wording was weird, though, so I am betting a lot of people will start ditching the masks this week lol
Although I’m now homeschooling, I wonder if public schools will now get back to normal, too. No more temp checks at the door, sitting 4 to a table at lunch, etc? Also, will stores now remove all their plexiglass??
I’m excited, but also wondering how many businesses will still require you to wear a mask. Won’t be shopping at those places.
We turn on a dime when we're hassled at a business.
And no going back
This right here...
I wonder this as well. But even normal for public school includes common core and marxist indoctrination, so your kids are still much better off learning from you :)
I'm hoping that people will start ignoring the businesses that "require" it. It's going to be hard for them to stop everyone. I hope for so much confusion that it makes it so much of a hassle for them to enforce it that they just give up lol
Oh wait a minute, I think it ends tomorrow lol.
Oh good lol!!!
I agree. I'm still voting for a good primary challenger too but everything you've said is correct.
Probably too many Texans leaving the state for freedom in Florida.
Finally, everyone will catch up with me. I have been mask free since the 15 days to flatten the fake curve that started March 15, 2020. I remember, I got on a plane to fly home, someone sneezed on the plane, and people were about to lose their shit. The NBA had shut down the night before. The day the world changed.
Hey, speaking of 15 days to flatten the curve, congratulations on the 1 year anniversary of that!
Then you were right. I was wrong about it all, but I came to the realization by May that it was a scam. This is because after two weeks it turned months and months.
Same here. I believed it at first until the “flatten the curve” date kept getting pushed back more and more. Goalposts moved. Now I’m seeing ads on tv asking us to get a vaccine. No thanks, jerks ?
Leave it to Texas! Now may the rest of the states follow suit!
Florida and Texas leading the way. Very good news.
Good news yes. Leading the way no, South Dakota never placed mandates on their citizens.
Thank you for reminding me.
You’d think the fact there is no apocalyptic scenario in other states would have normies questioning the narrative. But they just go right back to CNN for their fear porn.
Just heard Mississippi is doing the same thing!!!!
Courage. What is needed. History will look back and judge those that stood against the oppression and tyranny of the lockdowns, and followed the science which says that NO mitigation measure had any impact whatsoever on the proliferation of the virus.
The shepherds abandoned the flock
Finally my dumbass Governor does something right.
Never forget he is only doing this because legislators were about to do it for him. Bills were being introduced to end the mandate.
I hear you.
Expecting massive court cases and splashback.
Wouldn’t be surprised if this is just PR after the cold fuckup
Mississippi is following suit as well
https://gab.com/disclosetv/posts/105822212884426512
Hell yes, this is good news too! I did not know this.
Thank God!! I’m beyond sick of this whole flipping thing! Now we’ll be able to breathe again! God bless Governor Abbott! ??????
Smh, and as predicted motherfuckers want to pull the "muh new cases" card and act like this is somehow a bad thing, people that oppose this need to be punished. You want to wear a mask still? Cool, wear it but don't come at the everyday working citizens who want to be FREE.
That means all of the schools can open 100%. No more excuses from the teacher's unions.
That also means all of the government offices can re-open now 100%. Every city and county office (most have been shut, mail-in or call-in service only) can now re-open.
What's interesting if you look at a graph of covid cases in the U.S. over the past year, there was the initial ramp up, then the lock downs, and then later in the year, another ramp up, even higher, despite the same lock downs, masking, etc.. So now, the daily case numbers EXCEED the levels reached during the first ramp up, yet even leftist states are dialing back their covid control measures. If this isn't proof that covid was used to kill the economy in an effort to defeat Trump, nothing is.
Mississippi too!
Florida first and now Texas! Which states will join the march to freedom?
FL hasn't had the mask mandates but nice to see other states finally putting a stop to it
Should have never let anything shutdown beyond the first two weeks. It was 'two weeks to stop the spread', and I gave Trump the benefit of the doubt on that to be better safe than sorry. Any state and that is just about all of them broke the law with these mandates and shutdowns. Only South Dakota didn't shut down. Gov. Noem alone is worthy of higher office in my opinion.
Well now the rest of the normies can experience what I’ve experienced from the beginning - freedom.
At least 20% will stil wear them. My son works at a school in DFW and parents are already sending emails that they don’t want that to end.
A bunch of Karen’s and petty tyrant are sad today
Then they can just let their kids wear them. Let mine breathe!
I wish our Gov had a set! But ours is a Rino and a Clintonite. He just extended ours to 3/31. He is AssHoe!
That is huge.
Time for the rest to follow.
God bless Texas!
Well sisolak. Here is your chance to do one useful thing while you are governor
Open us up and get rid.of the mask loser.
Finally... and for the sheeple make the no mask in public law front and center again
Imagine reading this news while stuck in New Jersey hahaha...haha...ha.....
Excuse me for a moment.
will liberal businesses who are ready to stick butt plugs up their employees ass going to listen to their governors and reopen tho? that's what will be interesting to see...
Let them go out of business
Nope, someone on Twitter made a list of Austin biz still enforcing the masks. Teo of them chimed in bragging about keeping the masks.
Mark my words Minnesota, with Governor Kim Jong Walz will be the last state... two weeks to flatten the curve, that was about 30 executive orders extending his emergency powers ago...
I'll see your Kim Jong Walz and raise you Michigan's Gretchen Whitmer.
I call both of you and raise you North Carolina’s Roy POOPER
And I’ll top it all with Emperor Cuomo ?
You WON!?
You WON!!?
Yes, but Dems seem to be turning on him with these lame, "He once touched my back" accusations. Is he not enough of a Communist for them? Are they trying to get him out before he's held accountable for the thousands he killed by forcing nursing homes to take COVID patients?
https://www.ksat.com/news/local/2021/03/02/texas-gov-greg-abbott-to-make-statewide-announcement-in-lubbock/ Here is the link - wish Ohio would do this too
I’m with you in Indiana. Idk what our legislature is even DOING. Nothing recent on our governor and legislature that I can find so far
The sheeple are hilarious. They'll mask up, sanitize, some wear gloves and face shields. They do this to protect themselves. To feel safe, right?
The thing is, they don't feel safe. If they did, they wouldn't get so crazy toward anyone who doesn't have that shit on.
good beautiful humans doing a kindness!
Kek!
Texas is like the America of America.
Washington state here. Pray for me.
March 2nd. 1846 - TEXAS INDEPENDENCE DAY.
Here's the full E.O.

A little slow but glad they are doing it!
It's happening! When all the other states fall in line and this nonsense is behind us... that's when we see our real President. It had to be this way.
Sure seems like it, Trump wants the entire pandemic done and over with before he comes back or they will never let it go.
