Josh "Chevy" Chevalier is a third-generation shipbuilder who hasn't missed a day of work during the pandemic in his job as a welder constructing Navy warships on the Maine coast. But he's ready to walk away from his job because of an impending mandate from President Joe Biden that federal contractors and all U.S. businesses with 100 or more workers be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. "People are fighting for their constitutional rights — the way they think their life should be," said Chevalier, one of hundreds of employees at Bath Iron Works threatening to leave.

Comments:

This is going to shut down a lot of businesses, and many, many people will not bend on this mandate.
It is looking like "FJB" is helping stiffen a lot of backbones on this, and the mandate may have to be scrapped.

FTA: The defiant workers make up a small fraction of the overall workforce, with many cities, states and businesses reporting that more than 9 out of 10 of their workers are complying with mandates." They'll eventually starve the rest of us out, or restrict our liberties to the point where we concede. This is America, after all.

700.000 Americans have died for two major reasons. 1. Governors sticking covid cases into nursing homes, thereby killing off vulnerable old people. 2. Government REFUSING to use simple,.available, efficacious therapeutics to halt the disease in it's early stages. So basically, our government has murdered probably 500.000 of the claimed deaths. This doesn't mention the poisonous "vaccine" that doesn't actually work. The government itself has admitted that 46,000 people, between the ages of 65 to over 80, died within 3 days of getting the vaxx. These are medicare numbers because CDC has lied about EVERYTHING ever since. This insanity has to stop.

9 out of 10 is crap, #1. Like just about everything else reported, that figure is a total lie. Numbers are far closer to 50% than 90%, and there is a lot of buyer's remorse out there on having taken the clot shot, especially now that boosters are being mandated forever as well.

Hey, if Congress and their staff are exempt why can't everyone else? Or is Congress more equal?

Experimental drugs can't be mandated. All of the "vaccines" that are being given currently are under the EUA. The ones that have been approved are their brand names. Pfizer's is called Comirnaty. Pfizer says they do not plan to produce any Comirnaty while the EUA authorized product is still available and available for U.S. distribution. Pfizer has not made any Comirnaty.

The website is actually Fox News. Fox news is using AP propaganda. I left Fox a long time ago, but I know so many conservatives that still think they are on "our side".

I have been saying for months that the testing is flawed and the reported numbers of positives, hospitalization, deaths and recoveries don't .add up. IMO the reason is the government controls the accumulation of the data and their reporting accompanied by a financial incentive for labs, hospitals, clinics, etc to fudge the numbers. Like Stalin said - what is important is who counts the votes

Maryland U.S. Rep. Andy Harris, a doctor,

A Republican congressman from Maryland who is also a licensed physician said he prescribed the drug Ivermectin to patients for the treatment of the early stages of COVID-19. "I have prescribed ivermectin as treatment for early COVID," U.S. Rep. Andy Harris, who represents Maryland’s first congressional district, said in a statement to Fox 5 DC. "Data from India and elsewhere supports that off-label use. Off-label prescribing is commonly done for many medical illnesses." Harris, who was a physician at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, a medical officer in the Naval Reserve, and a state senator before coming to Congress, still practices part-time at Memorial Hospital in Easton, Maryland.

A report on NBC's "Today" Saturday fact-checked Dr. Anthony Fauci’s fear – made on its cable arm MSNBC – of a dramatic COVID-19 surge from crowded football stadiums, saying it "never happened." NBC reporter Shaquille Brewster reported packed stadiums for sporting events have not become "super-spreader events" for the coronavirus. "For weeks, crowds in the tens of thousands, mostly unmasked, have sat side-by-side now cheering on their teams at the halfway point of the season," Brewster reported. "All while doctors warned of games becoming potential super-spreader events. A frightening prospect at the time with hospitals already on the brink." Brewster cited Fauci’s theory that packed college games would lead to rising COVID cases

To paraphrase Jeff Foxworthy, if you feel a shiver of excitement when “school shooting” trends on Twitter, you just might be woke. Last Wednesday, Erica -- a nurse and “humanist” -- proved her wokeness in spades. “They’re already making excuses for the shooter ‘he got in a fight with someone,’” she tweeted. “Okay, but who chooses to shoot people? White males are a problem #TexasShooter #EnoughIsEnough.” Although reluctant to admit as much, many on the Left welcome a school shooting. Perhaps more than any other event, a shooting reinforces their empty mishmash of a worldview. It allows them to flaunt their hatred both of guns and of their lily-white selves.

Who else but Mark Twain could have said, "Whiskey is for drinkin'. Water is for fightin'"? A few years after the Civil War, a one-armed veteran of the conflict did exhaustive explorations of the arid West. John Wesley Powel is credited with nailing down the difference between the eastern U.S. and the drought-prone west. This leads us to a tale of two cities: Los Angeles and San Francisco. At the beginning of the 20th century, both relied on well water to sustain their populations. And both had ambitious plans to build aqueducts to import snow melt from the fairly distant Sierra Nevada mountains.

Rule 5 of Saul Alinksy’s Rules for Radicals provides that “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. . . .” Could there be more potent ridicule than the “Let’s Go, Brandon” meme being shouted at sporting events across the nation? Why, yes, there could. The meme could be turned into a song As a threshold matter, Joe Biden has done the heavy lifting by making his time as President a massive goat-screw. In just a few months in office, this utterly incompetent man has already managed to harm America very badly. He has opened the southern border to millions of immigrants, instituted “green” policies that have sent the price of gas skyrocketing

The Loudoun County prosecutor who sought jail time against a father who was arrested at a school board meeting after his daughter was allegedly sexually assaulted in a school bathroom has ties to progressive megadonor George Soros and Democratic Virginia gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe. Loudoun County Commonwealth's Attorney Buta Biberaj was described in the explosive report by The Daily Wire as the "progressive" elected county prosecutor who ran on a platform of ending "mass incarceration," but yet she sought jail time for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, both misdemeanor charges, against Scott Smith.

Legal opinions usually aren't terribly fun to read, but if you've been an ivermectin and/or hydroxychloroquine advocate for use against Wuhan Plague, this one definitely will bring you much joy. It's a rather lengthy and full spectrum opinion issued by Doug Peterson, Nebraska's Attorney General, in response to a query from the state's Department of Health and Human Services as to whether physicians can be persecuted and tormented for prescribing ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine to patients sick with the China Flu. What the AG's response amounts to is a full and complete takedown of the conspiracy to suppress cheap and effective early Covid-19 treatments.

Like other ranchers across the country, Rusty Kemp for years grumbled about rock-bottom prices paid for the cattle he raised in central Nebraska, even as the cost of beef at grocery stores kept climbing. He and his neighbors blamed it on consolidation in the beef industry stretching back to the 1970s that resulted in four companies slaughtering over 80% of the nation’s cattle, giving the processors more power to set prices while ranchers struggled to make a living. Federal data show that for every dollar spent on food, the share that went to ranchers and farmers dropped from 35 cents in the 1970s to 14 cents recently.

John Catanzara, president of the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police, said Friday Chicago Mayor Lightfoot’s vaccine mandate is "absolutely wrong" and instructed other officers not to comply. The mandate takes effect Friday and requires all police officers to be vaccinated or get tested for COVID-19 twice a week. Police are required to provide their vaccination status to the city by the end of the day. On "Fox & Friends," Catanzara estimated about half of his officers have been vaccinated, but he said even those who have received the vaccine agree that a mandate is wrong. He told Fox News’ Ainsley Earhardt that the mandate was Lightfoot’s decision

To great public fanfare, Joe Biden has anointed Rachel Levine a “four-star admiral” in the Public Health Service (PHS). The public relations campaign in support of Levine has emphasized his status as the first transgender four-star “admiral” in the “eight U.S. uniformed services.” That PR campaign is misleading, and it is part of a dangerous effort to undermine the military.(snip) This roll-out and publicity barrage leave little doubt that Levine’s primary qualification for his instant promotion is his transgender status.

Among those remarks were ones attacking the concerns that parents have had in Virginia about what is happening in the schools and what is being taught. “We don’t have time to be wasted on these phony trumped-up culture wars, this fake outrage, the right-wing media’s pedals to juice their ratings.” He accused Republican gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin of avoiding “serious problems that affect serious people,” and suggested that outrage over the actions of school boards is unjustified.

Alec Baldwin got to play his dream role last week, and unfortunately for an innocent woman, it was a method-acting version of Ted Kennedy. Now, you note that I am mocking a guy whose probable gross negligence killed a lady and maimed a man, and this raises an important question – do we really want to live in a world where our reaction to a tragedy caused by an enemy is not sorrow and compassion but mockery? It doesn’t matter what we want. We do live in such a world, in large part due to the likes of Alec Baldwin.
