Good!!!!!!

davidschaperNPR FLOUT! They flaunt their noncompliance by flouting the rules.

🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾Law and Order in the GREATEST NATION on Earth at last! ThankGod For a Real President WeThePeople lovesYou BidenHarris2021 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾👊🏾

Sooo I’ll just be driving wherever I need to go. Not about this nonsense.

Nobody cares about his Hitler like demands. He better have a mask on 24/7 because he live in a Government owned property. He better be sleeping with one one.

I finally figured out what president select Biden was doing in the basement for all those months. He was in re-education camp and turned into the woke Biden.

He's woefully out of date on everything he's doing.

profgalloway Yeah bro this is not new - have you been on public transport in the last six months plus?

Yelp

davidschaperNPR We are not governed by “dictator decree” or “mandates”. I need to know when the legislative body of our government voted on this. Did you fail Civics 101 in Grade 8? You don’t seem very bright. Just look at you.

It’s already be done JoeBiden

Ban. All. Travel.

Now the airlines have the backing of the federal government on mask requirements. This is something that should have happened many months ago. I applaud President Biden!

Yeah, we were already doing that, so....

I’ve flown several times over the last couple months. The airlines were already handling their business well before this authoritarian stunt. Amtrak too.

Joe Biden gropes kids

Tell CovidKim in Iowa. KimReynoldsIA thinks Iowa doesn’t need any protection. The Iowa state Republicans celebrated going back to work in January by NOT wearing. She needs help deprograming from “the trump cult” POTUS KamalaHarris

Good.

Thank you President Biden!!!

WhiteHouse POTUS should have added ride-share for mask mandate, too.

So, he did an executive order requiring something that is already extensively required? Golf clap...

And now they can easily say: it is the law... finally!

A big fat...DUH!!! Why was this not mandatory in the first place! So stupid. Really.

Had we done this from the start some may still be alive. Hard to be against something that may save you or others life. I dont mind a mask, I dont mind social distance but I do mind others being selfish. Besides it is winter and the mask helps with cold I found.

More freedoms taken away that the Democrats won’t follow.

Next we are all going to start having to wear shirts AND shoes into gas stations. SAD!

Hahaha, how about never fly and let the airlines go out of business? Sounds good to me!!

signs mask mandate **later that day** doesn't wear mask to Lincoln memorial 🤣😂 Oh yeah, and where are all the troops right now? Oh yeah, you moved them to the parking garage... nice! I see the difference between presidents that's for sure

Where is he going to wear his mask in federal buildings ?

Thanks Joe! They are ALREADY MANDATED by the airlines. We are doomed. 😔 SleepyJoe

I'm surprised this wasn't already a thing

He broke his own rules on day one

I thought this was already mandatory?

Excellent

I can just envision the Trumpers scratching their head on how to argue this common sense plan.

I was under the impression that we were already doing this.

This should always be in place. I used to cringe when getting stuck next to someone with an obvious cold/cough...that didn't cover mouth or nose when expelling. Gross.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Finally!

Airlines already on this. Way to swoop and poop big dog.

Thank you Sir, this is much needed executive order.

profgalloway Does this apply to US Senators?

This should have been done day one last year and could have averted hundreds of deaths from Covid. Somebody used to be up there needed to be held accountable.

This is a common sense approach that makes everyone safer. Thank you POTUS for making the hard decisions to save lives.

profgalloway ... and how about those that “wear a mask”, but leave their nose sticking out as a defiant move. Idiots to start with.

Karen didnt approve this news

Dude ur title post is so weak at least type some English phrases with ya white ass

Chinese puppet Joseph Biden himself didn't wear a mask. So typical for a mister Xi's comrade.

THIS IS ALREADY A RULE ON ALL FLIGHTS THEY WILL NOT LET YOU ON THE DAMN PLANE WHAT IS THIS MANS DOING

After 4 years of incompetence and pathological policies, I’m not used to this sudden flurry of common sense decision making.

Those that don't like it, go fly a kite.

don't just be president for nothing bcz this world is going to spruce you for many things

Looks like we don't have to worry about anymore MAGA attacks now that none of them will be able to travel without compromising the liberties they value so dearly.

A bunch of the deplorables. If you committed a crime, you should stay in prison.

About time! Thankyou JoeBiden

Yes, this will save lives. But, no, it's not enough. The majority of states have mask mandates, but it's largely a killing joke, because not every city or town or village, and business, large and small, are enforcing the mandate. If only we had a proper lock down from the start.

Imagine if a National mask mandate had been implemented in March of last year..... ToTheLost

👏👏👏👏👏👏
