and three deaths

Victoria has extended vaccination mandates to more than one million workers on the authorised worker list after another day of more than 1,000 locally-acquired Covid cases. On Friday the state recorded 1,143 new local cases and three coronavirus deaths in the past 24 hours. The premier, Daniel Andrews, said the case numbers presented a “challenge” for the state as he announced that all authorised workers would be subject to compulsory vaccination in order to work on site. The mandate will cover everyone who is currently allowed to work outside the home, including cleaners, allied health professionals and even pool maintenance operators, affecting about 1.2m Victorians.

Comments:

Victoria, a state in SE Australia, goes full Nazi on their workforce over THREE deaths.
I hope that people just stop showing up for work and shut the whole thing down. The adjacent Australian state to the north, New South Wales, had their premier resign a few hours ago. Not sure whether this is related to the unpopularity of the totalitarian police state that they have put in place against the ordinary Australians.

No doubt many more than that died each year from the annual flu going around. Somehow that was never a national emergency, despite the government urging us all to get our annual flu shot. Which would be useless as the flu always mutated before the vaccines came out. The only thing that has changed is that our governments are desperate to control us no doubt before we find out what they have been doing with all our money.

Three deaths? Would guess that more than three Aussies have been eaten by sharks this year.

The problem is that vaccines do not work. Young vaccinated people are filling up the hospitals presently. FJB

2, it's ok as long as the sharks don't have covid. If the shark or their lunch has covid then that's a covid death not a shark attack death.

Sadly, I live in Minnesota where they are mandating that "health care" workers get vaccinated. I listened to a town hall yesterday, apparently we have one good state rep, that was incredible. One nurse asked why nobody is interested in asking them why they won't get the jab. The reason, of course, is that they see what it's doing to patients. She also pointed out that, before Covid, she would have been fired for not giving patients "informed consent" info. It was kind of encouraging, they KNOW what is happening--and in MN no less.

Threaten one million workers over three people who were probably going to die anyway. That level of stupidity is already here so we can't be too harsh on others.

Texas authorities say an armed customer intervened during the attempted robbery of a fried chicken fast food restaurant, fatally wounding one gunman and sending a second suspect struck by gunfire to the hospital. Port Arthur police responded around 8:45 p.m. Friday to an aggravated robbery happening at the Church’s Chicken location at 1849 Jefferson Drive. Detectives learned that two suspects armed with handguns were robbing the restaurant, but an armed citizen intervened and a shootout ensued. "Several shots were fired and both suspects were struck," the Port Arthur Police Department said in a press release. "The suspects fled the scene and were later located by police officers."

Chants of "F*** Joe Biden" rained down from the crowd at Alabama’s Talladega Superspeedway after Brandon Brown captured his first NASCAR Xfinity Series race victory. The anti-Biden chants came during Brown’s post-race interview. After Brown told a reporter his victory was a "dream come true," the crowd began to loudly shout in unison their displeasure with the president. The reporter acknowledged the chants and claimed the fans were shouting "Let’s go Brandon!" NASCAR initially posted video of the interview with the chant but later deleted the tweet. Fox News reached out to NASCAR to ask why the post was taken down but did not immediately receive a response.

Homeschooling numbers have increased over 300% in the last two years, according to federal government Census data. This spike does not include Americans engaged in virtual learning through a public or private school program due to COVID protocols. These are full-time homeschoolers. The United States Census Bureau has been tasked with collecting data through nationwide surveys for over 80 years. The data are intended for use by other government agencies and elected officials for policy decisions. This is the first time the Census Bureau has sought to identify the total number of homeschoolers in America. Previous surveys only marked children who were un-enrolled

What they did is they extended the emergency use authorization for the Pfizer drug vaccine that’s available in the U.S.  CORRECTION*
Austin City Council member sounds alarm

The Austin Police Department announced it will no longer respond to calls for "non-emergencies" after a cut to the police budget in 2020 led to staffing shortages. Mackenzie Kelly, an Austin City Council member, said the decision to defund the police has led to "disastrous consequences" in the city. The Austin City Council voted in August 2020 to cut up to $150 million – roughly 34% – from the police budget. By the end of July, Austin reported that the number of homicides in 2021 had already matched the total homicides in all of 2020. "A lot of what we’re seeing happening starting today is coming home to roost from that decision,"

I don't understand the commotion over oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico from drilling operations after Hurricane Ida. Oil has always oozed out of the ground to foul land, lakes, and oceans. That's how people first discovered the stuff. In nature, some oil on the surface evaporates off as naphtha (probably the basis of the ancient Greek fire). Other oil is digested by bacteria, converting it into simple organic compounds that other organisms feast on, leading to localized exuberant biodiversity. The heavier components of oil remain as lumps called bitumen or asphalt. The Dead Sea was called Lake Asphaltites because of the gooey pebbles that floated

A recent story out of Kansas City, the town in which I live, suggests just how eager the Left is to control our lives, right down to the food we eat. The story involves a friendly hole-in-the-wall café whose brave proprietor had had enough. A little background is in order. In 2008, I somehow emerged as the public face of the opposition to a ballot measure that called for a ban on smoking in bars and restaurants in Kansas City. What made this unusual, and what made me an effective spokesman, was that I never smoked. Well, not that effective—my side lost the election, narrowly.

The best way to do that: Vaccination and booster shots, he said. "We've just got to concentrate on continuing to get those numbers down and not try to jump ahead by weeks or months and say what we're going to do at a particular time," Fauci said.

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Yasmin Vossoughian Reports,” Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) argued that the $3.5 trillion price tag for the Build Back Better Act reconciliation package “is a modest investment” for an economy the size of America’s. Torres said, “[T]here’s misconception about the price tag of the Build Back Better Act. The Build Back Better Act, the original draft, it is not 3.5 trillion over the course of a year. It’s over the course of ten years. So, it’s $350 billion. Which, for a $20 trillion economy like ours, is a modest investment. So, I think it’s shortsighted to focus on the price tag.”

Benedict Cumberbatch is reflecting on playing a closeted cattle rancher who falls in love with a young man in 1920s Montana in his new movie “The Power of the Dog.” The Oscar-nominated actor plays Phil Burbank, a hypermasculine rancher who inspires fear in awe in those around him—a reign of terror that comes from a deeply closeted sexuality. His made-up persona runs into some trouble after his brother (Jesse Plemons) brings home a new wife (Kirsten Dunst) and her queer son (Kodi Smit-McPhee). Phil torments them until he finds himself exposed to the possibility of love.

There’s always press coverage about Republican mismanagement or Republicans getting into trouble governing as ideologues, but you don’t hear much about the reverse. There’s a lot to critique about Republicans, but for mismanagement and for blindly putting ideology above all else, President Joe Biden may be the all-time champ.Biden campaigned as a pragmatist who could bring stability and national unification. His inaugural address was all about these themes. America needs some level of national healing more than anything else. Americans can’t go on at each other’s throats. The country is falling apart.
