Schwarzenegger advises Trump on weight loss: ‘Run around yourself three times’
Arnold Schwarzenegger has some exercise advice for former President Trump: Do some laps around a jail cell. “If he would ask me what should you do for fitness, I would just say, ‘Run around your ce…

The US Supreme Court let stand a ruling that said the Transportation Security Administration could require airline passengers to wear masks during the height of the pandemic, keeping in place a precedent issued by a key federal appeals court.
It was overruled by the Supreme Court.
Another regarding indiscriminate lockdowns and restrictions of religious gatherings.
This isn't saying the government doesn't have the authority to enact public health laws, it's simply saying those laws can't inhibit people from participating in religious gatherings.
Again, it's just public safety. It's amazing someone who is so nationalistic won't make a small sacrifice for his country, like temporarily wearing a mask in public.
temporarily
Temporary is two weeks. Not two years.
Ah. I see. I think what we have here is a failure of long-term memory and possible loss of object permanence and/or temporal perspective.
There are health care workers that contracted Covid before the vaccines came out that are suffering permanent complications from it as a consequence of the actions of people like you. Two years of wearing a mask for a couple hours a day is a small price to pay in comparison to a lifetime of pulmonary insufficiency, or neuropathy, or new autoimmune disorders that don't even have names yet. These are doctors, nurses, EMTs, paramedics, everyone from the Chief of Surgery to the hospital's housekeeping staff were put on the front lines of a once-in-a-century pandemic. If people had worn their masks, washed their hands, stayed home, or even just behaved sensibly or respectfully, there would be a lot of healthcare workers that would still be healthy, and others that would still be alive today.
It's people like you that are responsible for the havoc brought upon the least deserving of it.
Yeap, it'd be interesting to see how many medical providers had to retire early, burned out, or were taken out of commission from COVID. People don't understand how damage loosing an experienced provider can have to a clinic.
I work in orthopedics and rehabilitation and our clinic ended up loosing our oldest PA-C. He could have retired ages ago, but he loved teaching and he wasn't going to leave his hospital during a pandemic.
40 years of clinical experience, 40 years of educating young physicians at the same clinic, all snuffed out because some asshole couldn't be bothered to wear a mask.
I have conflicted feelings about COVID now a days, I'm glad that so many people were insulated from it. But I'm also outraged that these people insulated from harm now claim it wasn't real, or a big deal.
Any public figure who that attempted to minimize COVID should have been forced to help triage at their local hospital. They should have been forced to witness what a floors filled with vented patients looked like, sounded like, and felt like. People have no idea how close certain states were to a collapse of the healthcare system. Hell, my hospital was paying untrained office staff to provide medical care in the ICU under the guidance of a PA or higher.
I was lucky in that I worked in a specialty clinic, then a Peds ER during the pandemic and that I only caught it after getting the vaccination. I still got pyelonephritis as a bonus though. The roughest thing about the specialty clinic was that it was in oncology, so all of our patients were high risk and we still had asshats who whined about having to wear a mask in the clinic. During the worst of it, I was helping our plastic surgeon do in-office excisions of malignant melanomas as a temporizing procedure until the ORs opened up for the lymph node biopsies and radical excisions where needed.
Sounds pretty familiar, i am in a specialty clinic as well. Unfortunately we're the state's only trauma 1 hospital, and we had staffing issues before the pandemic. So when things started to get out of hand, pretty much any provider with a license had to do rotations in the ICU.
I have a couple friends who were providers at our cancer institute at the time, I know they lost a lot of patients when we briefly shut down non emergent facilities as well.
I think you may have a problem comprehending definitions?
Temporarily is not forever. There isn't a defined time on temporary. Two weeks is two weeks. Temporary is indefinite.
If it has a definite time period and ended at some point, that’s the definition of temporary. The opposite is permanent, and… two years isn’t permanent.
