Supreme Court to Arizona (and America): It's go time for restrictive voting laws
You contend that, while it might be tempting for Democrats, who hold the Senate by a single vote, to dump a procedure that gives veto power to the minority, it’s prudent to remember that one day the tables will turn, and Republicans will be in charge. Joe Manchin offer for refusing to end - or even modify - the filibuster sounds principled enough. If not getting it were an Olympics event, you’d be in gold-medal contention. Instead, you’ve chosen to defend the filibuster, a parliamentary parlor trick by which Republicans have blocked two bills - one of them named for your "dear friend" - designed to protect those rights from renewed assault by right-wing lawmakers. … Rest in power, my dear friend."Īs many observers - this one included - were quick to point out, the best way to honor Lewis would be by defending the cause that made him iconic: voting rights.

Obviously, that’s technically irrelevant to whether players are lying about their vaccination status. It isn’t, and that apparently is the end of it. Instead, the league has asked the team whether the percentage of positive tests from players vaccinated at the facility is any different thank the percentage of positive tests from players vaccinated elsewhere. This means that the league has not yet vetted the cards submitted by the 20 percent of all players who received vaccinations away from the team facility. According to McCarthy, the NFL “checked with clubs this week to see if there was a differential between the number of positive cases among players vaccinated off site versus those on site.” He said there was “no difference.” Of course, that leaves the other 20 percent.
The league has.Īccording to NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy, 80 percent of all players were vaccinated at the club facilities. We posed that question earlier today to both the league and the union. So what, if anything, has the NFL or the NFL Players Association done to explore the possibility that Antonio Brown et al.
