Coincidence that this settlement occurred one day after Biden signed the $1.9 TRILLION Blue State Bailout bill? 

Minneapolis is self-insured, according to a colleague in Minneapolis.  Follow the money. 

Normally something on the order of 30 to 40 thousand people died flu yearly.  This year that number went way, way down.  Masks are actually a very good thing.  I'll probably be wearing them in public from now on.  Flu is no joke.

Or we did have that many flu deaths and they also happened to have the covid virus so were counted as covid deaths.

Because vaccinated people can still be infected and pass on the virus. It's already happened.

At least one person is known to have died from a meteorite strike.

You clearly don't understand how it works.  It's not a runaway convention with people just putting anything they want in and getting it passed.

 The people opposing the Article V Convention know full well it takes the power away from the establishment within the beltway, thus why they fear monger it.

 The founding fathers placed the article V convention of the states clause exactly for what we are facing now, a runaway federal government.   Article V puts it back in the hands of the states.

Exactly. Each state that elects to send delegates do so for specific amendments. It’s been a couple of years but if I recall in Wisconsin the legislature voted to support a balanced budget amendment, but did not support a term limits amendment.

This is the ONLY way to solve the hell we find ourselves in.

As the founders intended, Article V puts ALL the power in the hands of the states, and takes it 100% out of the hands of Congress and the Swamp, but I repeat myself.

In other words he's a conservative hack. Or has he actually done, well, journalism?  That is, reported actual news to some sort of actual news outlet?

There are links to the facts in the story.  You should be able to make your own decision on the validity of the story.

You think the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel would print a story like this that contradicts their far left stance?  Is naïveté a major at your university? 

Conservatives are on our own now. The print press and other media is no longer the fourth estate. They have become the fifth column. If you’re waiting for CNN or The NY Times to give you their imprimatur on stories like this, then you’re insulating yourself from other truths that are out there that may challenge your world view.

Who is "Wisconsin Spotlight", and why should I believe anything they say?  All I see is a website.

I have the same concern with regard to the New York Times.

They do link to a document containing the emails at the beginning of the article . Did you not see that? And if the claims or evidence are false or invented, don’t you think a rich man like Zuckerberg would sue for libel?

nah - the claim was no widespread fraud

It was highly concentrated only where it was needed.

Get everyone vaccinated and the disease is done.  Things go back to the way they were.  Almost.  I think masks are here to stay.  I plan on wearing one when I go shopping in the winter from now on.  Flu sucks pretty hard too.  I wouldn't have considered it pre COVID, but I am now.

I have only gotten influenza once in the past 30 years. I must have got immune to most of them when young. There is no way I would wear a mask every winter for those odds. The mask is matter of daily quality of life. I cannot see with it on (it fogs my glasses), I get shortness of breath, it gets tangled up in my hearing aids and I feel claustrophobic wearing it. It’s fucking miserable, every time. My one flu was a miserable 3 weeks but then it was done. I’ll take that any day.

In fact if I get the flu and it kills me, it will have been worth living happily mask free for however long or short I live.
