A U.S. appeals court on Friday upheld its decision to put on hold an order by President Joe Biden for companies with 100 workers or more to require COVID-19 vaccines, rejecting a challenge by his administration. A three-member panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans affirmed its ruling despite the Biden administration's position that halting implementation of the vaccine mandate could lead to dozens or even hundreds of deaths. read more "The mandate is staggeringly overbroad," the opinion said. "The mandate is a one-size-fits-all sledgehammer that makes hardly any attempt to account for differences in workplaces (and workers),"

The article didn't say what the vote was, but this is wonderful news. These lefty whack jobs have to learn not to mess with individual liberty. Especially in this case, because this stupid administration would not ever mandate these vaccines for the thousands of illegal invaders coming into the country. Only working people were getting shafted. BTW, Trump won in 2020 and FJB!!

Halting implementation of the vaccine mandate could lead to dozens or even hundreds of deaths, and yet 18,461 people, at a bare minimum, have died because of the shot, and many more have suffered severe side effects. The manufacturers laugh; immune from lawsuits and raking in tens of billions of dollars (nearly $40 billion for Pfizer alone, accounting for half of their business). These shots should not only be banned from federal mandate, but banned by "independent" employer mandate as well. https://www.openvaers.com/covid-data

Big pharma wants to make money, Dems want to be vaccinated. Simple solution, every Dem gets vaccinated once a week. Win-Win.

Just finished reading the ruling. This stay is nationwide and permanent until such time that a higher court (SCOTUS) reviews. In order for that to happen, an appeal would have to be filed with Judge Alito, who oversees the 5th, and then SCOTUS would have to agree to take the case if the possibility of reversible error is found. Given the details of the ruling, it seems very unlikely that SCOTUS would even intervene by reinstating the mandate. The argument against it is very compelling. I would guess that Xiden's mandate is doomed, based strictly upon the arguments for and against brought up.

#11, that probably means that this ends right here. Alito will know that by just doing nothing, the right outcome will happen. Doing nothing is really easy.

The government has no right to order companies to mandate the shot, nor does it have a right to order companies not to mandate it. So while the appeals court ruling was a small victory for employees threatened with termination for not getting the shot, it's a hollow victory, since it doesn't protect them (especially those who work for woke corporations, whose leaders could hardly wait to do whatever Brandon asks of them, whether he orders it or not).

Separately from that, wasn't it the 5th DISTRICT Court of Appeals who issued the stay last week? Which is it, then, Reuters -- District or Circuit? (And what difference does that make?)

The standard premium for Medicare’s outpatient care coverage will jump by 14.5% for 2022, far outpacing an earlier estimate of 6.7%, according to the government. The standard premium for Part B, which covers outpatient care and durable equipment, will be $170.10 next year, up $21.60 from $148.50 this year, said a senior official for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services on Friday. The program’s trustees had estimated this summer that the premium would rise to $158.50. The deductible for Part B will be $233, up $30 (14.8%) from this year. The bigger-than-anticipated increase is partly attributed to rising prices and utilization

Wisconsin Gov.

Rittenhouse was among several men and women who answered the call to secure a business called Car Source on the third night of riots that largely destroyed two other company locations. Police kettled the rioters, who were marauding in the streets, setting fires, beating people, and attacking a kid who came to help—17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse.

A federal jury has indicted Steve Bannon, the one-time White House adviser to former President Trump, after he failed to comply with a subpoena from the committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Bannon faces two charges of contempt of Congress after he failed to appear for an Oct. 14 deposition before the panel. “Since my first day in office, I have promised Justice Department employees that together we would show the American people by word and deed that the department adheres to the rule of law, follows the facts and the law and pursues equal justice under the law,” Attorney General Merrick Garland

Over the last six months or so, it has become more and more common to read stories about school boards that have essentially gone to war with the parents of the children in the school system they oversee. Ground zero of the war zone was Loudoun County, Virginia. Loudoun County is one of those Virginia counties that used to be reliably Republican but now has been overrun by leftist scum working for federal contractors and the federal government and has turned hard left. I hope Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott keep this in mind when trying to entice Silicon Valley and Wall Street companies to relocate to their states. The flashpoint

Newly released internal emails reveal that the National School Boards Association coordinated with the White House and the Department of Justice before sending President Biden the notorious letter that compared concerned parents to domestic terrorists. Emails provided to Fox News show that NSBA had coordinated with the White House for weeks beforehand. Viola Garcia, the NSBA president whom the Department of Education later named to a federal board, sent a memo to NSBA members on Oct. 11 (but dated Oct. 12), providing a timeline of the NSBA's interaction with the White House ahead of the letter to Biden, which the NSBA sent on Sept. 29.

As RedState reported, Project Veritas has found itself in the crosshairs of the FBI recently. That began with a raid on the homes of several of its journalists under the guise of looking for Ashley Biden’s diary. Apparently, a stolen diary is now in the purview of federal authorities. Will they be investigating bike thefts next? But what was so disturbing, besides the raids happening in the first place, was how quickly The New York Times knew about them. While O’Keefe was asked by the FBI to keep quiet, the Times knew within hours, pointing to a leaker within the bureau. But while the Department of Justice requested us to not disclose

The deadline for federal employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 is November 22. Federal employees who are not vaccinated, or obtain an exemption, by that date are subject to termination. It’s hard to imagine a worse time to lose a substantial amount of border patrol agents than during the Biden Border Crisis. Former chief operating officer of CBP from 2019 to 2021, Mark Morgan, obtained a document from a source inside CBP. The leaked document shows nearly half of CBP agents have not registered their COVID vaccination status and 10% of those who have registered have not received a shot. The federal mandate issued by Biden may result in the loss

It’s been quite a spectacle watching people who credit Democrats with every job created and every percentage point gained in economic growth suddenly arguing that the White House is completely powerless in the face of our current economic predicament. Presidents generally get far too much credit and/or blame for our fortunes, but they can certainly exacerbate existing problems. And our political class has certainly aggravated them with unbridled spending and support for policies that disincentivize work and inhibit energy production. Wholesale prices rose 8.6% from a year ago in October, another record annual gain and the biggest spike in more than a decade. Inflation hit 6.2%, the highest

Matthew McConaughey is speaking out on mandating vaccines for his children. The issue has become a hot-button topic since a vaccination against coronavirus was made widely available early this year for adults. In recent weeks, developers have been working toward making the vaccine available to children, prompting questions about whether such a vaccine should be mandated for kids. Speaking at The New York Times' DealBook summit, the 52-year-old actor expressed hesitancy to require his children to get the vaccine. "I couldn't mandate having to vaccinate the younger kids," he said. "I still want to find out more information.

Reps Liz Cheney (RINO-WY) and Bennie Thompson (D-MS) are seeking criminal charges on Trump’s former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows after he failed to appear before their sham January 6 Committee. The Marxists on the January 6 Committee issued Meadows a subpoena because he was with Trump on January 6. Meadows, like Bannon, defied the subpoena and was instructed by Trump to “respect long-standing principles of executive privilege.” “Mr. Meadows’s actions today—choosing to defy the law—will force the Select Committee to consider pursuing contempt or other proceedings to enforce the subpoena,” Thompson and Cheney, vice chair of the sham panel, said in a statement Friday.

From the moment Donald Trump announced his presidential aspirations in June 2015, he has dominated the political landscape. Trump's turn in the spotlight has persisted for so long that it seems impossible to get away from him. Both his critics and fans are many. Though Democrats control the White House and Congress, they are eager to remind others of the Trumpian loyalty still alive within the Republican Party. But when it comes to elections, there is no placing Trump on a ballot if he is not running. This truth played itself out on the Nov. 2 election night.

At the bottom of the chart, newly-admitted freshmen are separated into two categories: “Students of Color, minus Asian,” and “White or Asian students.” Across all four years, the latter category notably made up roughly 80 percent of all admissions in every Fall semester.
