"Freedom To Breathe Agency"

A fictitious agency primarily found in America created by people who did/do not want to wear medical/face masks during the Corona pandemic.

This was mainly done on a card or by verbalizing the acronym while citing the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) to get into businesses who required wearing masks during the 2020 Corona Virus Pandemic.
Karen - "let me in!!!"

Mortal - "I can not let you in, you need a mask due to company policy"

Karen - "The FTBA says that under the ADA I do not have to wear a mask as I have a disability and do not have to disclose what disability that may be."

Mortal - "Go home Karen, no one likes you."

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
