Justice Sotomayor Working Remotely After Gorsuch Refuses To Wear Face Mask In Court

Omicron is a highly-transmissible COVID variant which even some who have taken all the COVID jabs, are catching it anyway.

The top 5 symptoms of Omicron are much milder than Aplaha and Delta

1. Runny Nose
2. Headache
3. Fatigue (mild or severe)
4. Sneezing
5. Sore Throat

CDC quietly admitted on Friday that the thin cloth masks the agency and its corporate media allies spent the last two years cheering actually “provide the least protection” against COVID-19. It was “the first time the C.D.C. has explicitly addressed” the relative ineffectiveness of cloth masks, according to The New York Times.

With all of this being said, US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor is choosing to work remotely because fellow justice Neil Gorsuch refuses to wear a face mask.

NPR reported:

It was pretty jarring earlier this month when the justices of the U.S. Supreme Court took the bench for the first time since the omicron surge over the holidays. All were now wearing masks. All, that is, except Justice Neil Gorsuch. What’s more, Justice Sonia Sotomayor was not there at all, choosing instead to participate through a microphone setup in her chambers.

Sotomayor has diabetes, a condition that puts her at high risk for serious illness, or even death, from COVID-19. She has been the only justice to wear a mask on the bench since last fall when, amid a marked decline in COVID-19 cases, the justices resumed in-person arguments for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.

Now, though, the situation had changed with the omicron surge, and according to court sources, Sotomayor did not feel safe in close proximity to people who were unmasked. Chief Justice John Roberts, understanding that in some form asked the other justices to mask up.

Far-left MSNBC host Rachel Maddow lashed out at Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, accusing him of preventing his colleague, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, from “being able to come to work.”

Maddow was responding to Sotomayor’s refusal to attend the high court’s oral arguments in person because Gorsuch refuses to wear a mask.  She suggested that he might “revel” in the knowledge that everyone now knew that he was the reason she felt unable to come to work.

“It’s folly to try to get inside anyone else’s head, I know, but I just can’t shake this,” Maddow tweeted Tuesday, adding, “Does Justice Gorsuch revel in everyone now knowing that he’s keeping her from being able to come to work? Or is he embarrassed? I mean, how do you live with yourself?”

The Daily Caller’s editor-in-chief Geoffrey Ingersoll offered a different perspective, noting that all of the Justices were vaccinated and were constantly being tested.

“Maddow [quoting] npr’s garbage story is like a multilevel marketing scheme for political hacks,” he said. “They’re all vaxxed and tested every day. Nothing is stopping her from going to work but herself. The shrieking from cultish covid enthusiasts puts westboro baptist to shame, my god.”
