In my years I have also removed carpet and padding, and have found that it is one of the most dusty jobs there is. Even without a pandemic I, personally, would never do it without a mask. Even in apparently clean carpet the shampoo cleaning acts to force dirt deeper into the carpet/pad. There was drywall removed also. That is also a job that stirs up considerable dust.
The video shows almost everyone masked, except for FLTTT, and a young girl, as fat as I could tell.

It just seemed wrong on several levels, he may have super lungs that reject gypsum, talc, mica, silica, and calcite – ingredients known to cause health issues when inhaled.

Aside from possible mold in carpet padding.

This is without even considering the pandemic reasons for wearing a mask.

He was only there long enough to take the photo

Cruz received a special ‘welcome back’ message in Senate gym
Sen. Ted Cruz’s colleagues had a little fun at the Texas Republican’s expense when he returned to Washington this week following his infamous trip to Cancun.

When senators arrived at the Senate gym on Wednesday morning, they found that one of them had taped memes on the lockers welcoming Cruz home and showing him in the short-sleeve polo shirt, jeans and Texas-flag mask that he had at the airport, according to two people familiar with the prank. “Bienvenido de Nuevo, Ted!” was the “welcome back” message typed at the top of the color printouts, one of which was viewed by NBC News.

The rendering featured a manipulated photo of Cruz from his well-documented trip to Mexico, dragging his luggage across an arctic landscape while holding a tropical cocktail garnished with a slice of fruit in his other hand. He is shown walking toward an image of a masked Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. with his arms crossed and wearing striped, knitted gloves — a pose famously captured during January’s inauguration.
I hope hope hope that Randy Rainbow targets Ted with his next video. Please.

If you don't want to sit through a four minute video, it consists of Cruz complaining that Garland wouldn't answer questions, and that he refused to take in-person meetings with Senators. At the conclusion of Cruz's rant, Durbin points out that 850 questions were submitted to Garland, including 127 from Cruz, and that Garland answered them all, despite Cruz apparently not liking the answers. Also, Durbin pointed out that Garland was not taking in-person meetings due to the FREAKING PANDEMIC, but that he offered to take Zoom meetings from any Senator.

Cruz just can't even open his mouth without lying. I wish it mattered.

Biden Invites Ted Cruz To White House To Pet His Dogs
WASHINGTON - Just hours after Champ and Major returned to the White House, President Biden extended an invitation to Senator Ted Cruz to come to the Oval Office and pet his dogs. Biden said that he was hoping Cruz would pet both his dogs, “but especially Major, who’s been through some rough times lately.” “I think Senator Cruz would really get a kick out of Major,” he added. “I know he’s a dog lover, even if he didn’t take his poodle with him to Cancun.”

Question: Would you mind putting on a mask for us?
Ted Cruz: Yeah when I’m talking to the TV camera, I’m not going to wear a mask

Biden is awesome



hey media, if smarmy cruz won't wear a mask because he is talking-don't ask him to talk.

cut him off. That would hurt him the most because everything he does is for "media attention"

You’re in a Border Patrol boat armed with machine guns.

The only threat you face is unarmed children and families who are seeking asylum (as well as the occasional heckler).

If you’re looking for a crisis to cosplay Senator for, I’m happy to point you in the right direction.
Interesting conversation just now on Deadline Whitehouse about Senators trotting around in a gunboat meant for chasing drug smugglers and how the poor kids trying to cross the river to safety in innertubes might react to that sight. :crazy: :brickwallsmall:

Not advocating violence here but I think one of Ted Cruz's problems is that nobody ever punched him in the face when he was growing up. If you considered him grown up.
