Today Ted Cruz shredded mask mandates on airplanes, calling it nothing but ‘performative theater’ and not remotely science: Sen. Ted Cruz on mask mandates on planes: “This is performative theater. This is not science. This is not keeping anyone safe. … One way to encourage people to be vaccinated is for there actually to be a difference in what you can do after you’ve been vaccinated.” pic.twitter.com/R3YsjqRFFT — Steve Guest (@SteveGuest) June 16, 2021 Cruz is arguing to repeal the mask requirement and allow those vaccinated to choose whether they wear a mask or not, saying the mandate is not keeping anyone safe because it’s just performative theater: “This is performative theater. This is not science. This is not keeping anyone safe. And if our objective is to encourage people to be vaccinated…then one way to encourage people to be vaccinated is for there actually to be a difference in what you can do after you’ve been vaccinated.” To bolster his point, Cruz told a story of how when he tried to sleep on a flight recently for an hour or so, he noticed that if someone’s mask came down even slightly below their nose, the airplane staff would wake them up and tell them to pull the mask back up. This is when he said it’s nothing more than performative theater.
Cruz looked at everyone in the hearing room and noted that none of the vaccinated Senators, neither Republican nor Democrat, some of whom are sitting as close as you would on an airplane, were wearing masks: Indeed not a single Senator in this hearing room is wearing a mask. Not a single Democrat, not a single Republican is wearing a mask. Because shock of all shocks, science actually means something and vaccines work. This mandate right now is hurting the aviation industry because it is depressing demand for commercial aviation. Watch the video for more…

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
