'(Reuters) - A U.S. federal judge has dismissed a worker advocacy group’s lawsuit accusing Smithfield Foods Inc, the world’s largest pork processor, of failing to adequately protect employees from the novel coronavirus at a plant in Missouri. '
'In the lawsuit filed last month, the RCWA accused Smithfield of creating a “public nuisance” by failing to protect workers at the Milan, Missouri plant and endangering the surrounding community. '
'Smithfield has closed other pork-processing plants in Missouri, Wisconsin and South Dakota after outbreaks of coronavirus cases among workers. '
'Smithfield responded that it had implemented protections recommended by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and other agencies. '
'Virginia-based Smithfield, which is owned by China’s WH Group Ltd, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. '

Fuck the seditious judiciary - the Constitution is clear that the Executive is fully within his power. The judicial branch needs to be returned to its original intent, which isn't even as a co-equal branch of government.

How can you hold anybody responsible for someone getting sick? It is impossible to prove without a shadow of doubt. Evidence, apparently, no longer needs to be objective.
