A driver for Uber and Lyft in Chicago is slapping the CDC with a lawsuit over their federally enforced mask mandate claiming it is unconstitutional and violates his freedom of speech and religion.
Justin Mahwikizi is contending that since he is a Christian it goes against his religious principles to turn down anyone in need of a driver, mask or not. “It’s against my Christian beliefs to refuse service to someone in need, referring to the Good Samaritan parable of Jesus Christ and the Bible,” he told Business Insider during a phone interview on Saturday. “And so I’m arguing that the CDC is infringing on my religious practice rights that’s forcing me to deny service to someone in need.”
The lawsuit follows a debate over whether those individuals that are already vaccinated or who test negative for COVID should be allowed to ride via Uber or Lyft rideshare programs. The CDC’s guidance from January 29 orders all passengers to wear a mask on public transit, including planes, buses, and rideshares. Drivers are mandated to wear masks as well and the order is currently in effect until mid-September.
Now that the pandemic is dying down, the debate on forcing the mask issue is heating up even more. Senator Ted Cruz and a number of other conservative senators are seeking to end the federal mask mandate altogether for those that are vaccinated. (Video Credit: Fox News )
Appearing on Fox News’ Night Court, Attorneys Brian Claypool and Robert Patillo debated the issue on Wednesday.
Patillo called Mahwikizi a “male Karen” and labeled the case as frivolous and stated it should be dismissed out of hand.
But Claypool took the Christian stance on the issue noting that he would always help someone in need. He also contended that we should be celebrating freedom, not mask mandates. He says there should be tangible evidence that there is a threat to the driver in order to force passengers to wear masks. Claypool added that if they show a vaccination card or a negative test, they should be able to ride in the Uber or Lyft ride.

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.
