massively increase fines against employers
violating vaccine mandate
Posted By: Come And Take It, 11/5/2021 4:11:59 PM
The Democrats’ $1.75 trillion social spending bill would massively increase fines imposed on employers for occupational hazards. President Biden’s vaccine mandate will be enforced through such penalties. Businesses with over 100 employees must ensure by Jan. 4 that their workers are either fully vaccinated or undergo weekly COVID-19 testing, according to the mandate, which was finalized Thursday. Fines, enforced through the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), could be as high as $14,000 per violation.

America’s employers accelerated their hiring last month, adding a solid 531,000 jobs, the most since July and a sign that the recovery from the pandemic recession is overcoming a virus-induced slowdown. Friday’s report from the Labor Department also showed that the unemployment rate fell to 4.6% last month from 4.8% in September. That is a comparatively low level though still well above the pre-pandemic jobless rate of 3.5%. And the job gains in August and September weren’t as weak as initially reported: The government increased its estimate of hiring for those two months by a hefty combined 235,000 jobs. CORRECTION*

of boosting US oil production: 'That is hilarious' 25 replies
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm laughed off the notion of encouraging more domestic oil production to blunt high gasoline prices and said matters are exclusively in OPEC's hands.
"That is hilarious," Granholm responded while laughing to Bloomberg Surveillance host Tom Keene's question about the "Granholm plan" to increase oil production in America.
"Would that I had the magic wand on this," Granholm said. "As you know, of course, oil is a global market. It is controlled by a cartel. That cartel is called OPEC."

With the Biden administration facing a growing wave of lawsuits to stop the president’s vaccine mandate on companies, an Indiana businessman-turned-senator believes he has the quickest way to kill it.
Sen. Mike Braun, backed by most GOP senators, including Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, is hopeful of nixing the mandate through the arcane but effective Congressional Review Act. It would force a vote in both Houses just before Christmas and when 93,000 firms could be firing unvaccinated workers.
Radical climate protesters blockaded Sen. Joe Manchin’s car on Thursday and then claimed he tried to run them over in the parking garage.
"Pass climate change bills!" screamed one of the activists.
"This is Joe Manchin's car slowly pressing into our people protesters," said another.
Several then began shouting "we want to live!" While others could be heard chanting "F*** Joe Manchin."
A throng of climate protesters swarmed Sen. Joe Manchin's car Thursday morning in an effort to confront him about his opposition to President Joe Biden's multi-trillion dollar social spending plan.
The environmental activists followed Manchin from his $700,000 houseboat on the Potomac River in Washington DC to a parking garage where he keeps his $80,000 Maserati Levante as they chanted 'pass climate change bills,' 'we want to live!' and 'fight for us!'
Video shared on social media shows the group in the garage surrounding the Maserati as Manchin honks his horn.
Sen. Joe Manchin has presented a new challenge to President Joe Biden’s $1.75 trillion social spending package moving through Congress, objecting to a massive $100 billion immigration agenda that grants amnesty without major border controls.
The centrist Democrat has begun warning that while he supports aiding so-called “Dreamers” and other immigrants, the bill is a no-go if it doesn’t also include some type of border security spending.

After Inspection Shows ‘Mistreatment
Of Detainees’ 39 replies
Following an impromptu inspection of the D.C. jail, a federal judge has ordered the release of January 6 defendant, Christopher Worrell, over the mistreatment of detainees.
The surprise inspection of the jail by U.S. Marshals took place last month, but the report from the inspection was not made public until Wednesday.
Due to the findings, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said he has “‘zero confidence that the D.C. jail’ will provide the treatment correctly and not retaliate against Worrell,” who has cancer, CNN reported Wednesday.
Angry Democrats Slam Joe Biden After Catastrophic

Election, ‘Nobody Elected Him to Be FDR’ 26 replies
Imperiled and “mad” Democrats slammed President Joe Biden on Wednesday after the catastrophic election that left the Democrat Party disoriented over the defeats in Virginia, New York State, New Jersey, and Texas.
“Nobody elected him to be F.D.R., they elected him to be normal and stop the chaos,” said vulnerable Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA), suggesting Biden’s radical agenda will have a “bruising” impact on the 2022 midterms, the New York Times reported.
The armorer on the set of "Rust" offered a chilling theory through her attorneys about what led to the accidental shooting death of Halyna Hutchins.
Armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed was one of four people who handled the weapon prior to Alec Baldwin firing it while rehearsing a scene for the indie-western. As a result, Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza said that the investigation is largely focused on her as well as how a live round made its way to the set of the film at all.
Progressive Democrats led by Ilhan Omar suggested the party needs to go even further to the left and didn't do enough to combat the Republican's 'race-baiting bulls***' as warring factions played the blame game for Terry McAuliffe's crushing defeat in Virginia and a close race in New Jersey on Tuesday night.
Senator Tim Kaine (D-Ohio) said he hoped his colleagues would treat the dismal showing like the 'Ghost of Christmas Future' and moderates called for an end to in-fighting with Biden's agenda still stalled and his approval ratings plummeting.
Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia blamed congressional Democrats' "purist demands" on Wednesday for contributing to former Gov. Terry McAuliffe's loss to GOP nominee Glenn Youngkin in Virginia.
"Democrats in Congress hurt Terry McAuliffe," Kaine told a group of reporters at the Capitol. Kaine previously served as Governor of Virginia from 2006 to 2010 and was the party's vice presidential nominee in 2016.

Procter & Gamble (“P&G”) is one of America’s largest corporations, with over 100,000 employees worldwide. It is putting a vaccine mandate into place for its more than 26,000 America-based employees, which will require them to get vaccinated, meet a “company-approved” exemption, or take weekly COVID tests. Those employees opposed to the vaccine mandate are pushing back. To that end, they released a powerful video warning, not P&G, but all Americans, what will happen if these employees lose their jobs.
It’s unlikely that you’ve navigated through life without ever purchasing a product from P&G.
The House passed the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill with a vote of 228 to 206, sending one of two key pieces of President Joe Biden's agenda to his desk just before midnight Friday.

More than 70 flights transporting migrants from the southern border to Jacksonville have landed in the dark of night in recent months as the Biden administration struggles to empty overflowing border facilities, the office of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said. It is the first time the state of Florida has disclosed the number of confirmed flights arriving in the state since the summer.

Following a series of contradictory statements around $450,000 taxpayer payoffs to illegals separated at the border, Joe Biden came out in a finger-pointing rage to let a reporter know that these lawbreakers "deserve compensation." According to the RealClearPolitics transcription:
"Let's get it straight. You said everybody coming across the border gets $450,000. The number I was referring to."
"Now here’s the thing," Biden said. "If, in fact, because of the outrageous behavior of the last administration, you were coming across the border, whether it was legal or illegal, and you lost your child. You lost your child, [your child] is gone, you deserve some kind of compensation! No matter what the circumstances."
According to Axios, Germany is reporting the highest daily number of COVID-19 infections since the pandemic began. New cases across Europe have risen 55% in the past four weeks, according to WHO director Hans Kluge, who says “We are at another critical point of pandemic resurgence.”

A study about the growing influence of Millennials has revealed a majority of them have a positive opinion about Jesus Christ. However, they apparently don't understand or haven't read what the Bible has to say about sexuality because a whopping 30% of that entire generation now identify as LGBTQ.(Snip)...they are the most populous generation in American society today, comprising more than 70 million adults in the U.S.(Snip)...attributed the unusually high number of Millennials being LGBTQ was due to social and news media coverage that makes it "safe and cool" for young Americans to identify that way--whether or not it represents their actual sexual orientation.
