U.S. Postal Service employees are exempt from the Biden administration’s new coronavirus-vaccine requirements for federal workers and large companies, White House officials told the Washington Post on Thursday evening.

President Biden announced that the Labor Department would develop rules to require all companies with more than 100 employees to mandate coronavirus vaccinations or weekly testing for workers. Additionally, Biden signed an executive order requiring all “federal executive branch workers” to be vaccinated, along with all federal contractors, according to the White House outline of the plan.

However, those requirements do not extend to the USPS, a federal agency that employs over 644,000 people.

“We strongly encourage them to comply with these standards,” White House officials told the Post. It was not immediately clear why the administration’s vaccination requirements do not extend to the Postal Service.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

Republicans nationwide are tearing into President Joe Biden on Thursday after he announced he'd use an emergency order to force businesses with 100 or more employees to mandate vaccines or weekly COVID testing.

'Forcing this and coercing people, I don't think is the right decision. I'd imagine that you're gonna see a lot of activity in the courts if they try to do that through an executive action,' Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said during a press conference Thursday.

Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs revealed he would try to block the measure in Congress.

'I will be introducing legislation to block this egregious assault on Americans' freedom and liberty,' he wrote on Twitter.

'We must fight against these attempts to force vaccine mandates on the American people.' 

Biden on Thursday announced an aggressive new plan to get 100 million employees across the federal government and private sector vaccinated against COVID as the case rate continues to rise due to the Delta variant.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Oh Noes, Don’t Throw Me in The Briar Patch Mr. Biden

Perhaps it’s because we have been discussing this moment for over a decade; or perhaps it’s because we’ve already chosen our tribe amid this league of crazy; or perhaps it’s just because we don’t like ‘them’ in the first place; but whatever it is, this announcement today by the White House to cleave society into vaxxed -vs- non-vaxxed status is actually a little funny. Good luck with it.


{--large snip of beginning of article---}


It is likely the elitist goal behind Biden have an objective to cleave society thereby destroying it; however, if there’s something I know about this crew it’s how their hubris is their blindspot. They can never think clearly through the details of their dictates because they have never operated/lived in the place where the outcomes of those dictates surface. They make rules that are never implemented within their own tribe; this makes them extremely vulnerable.

Cleaving society ain’t necessarily a bad thing, when my tribe wants nothing to do with you in the first place.

When SHTF (sh!t hits the fan), these ruling elite types, and those who look down their noses at the unwashed WalMart shoppers, are the first culled by natural selection because they cannot function in a world where their basic needs are not serviced by others.

Stuff yourself into a box filled with like-minded vaccinated intellectuals filled with artificial airs-and-graces; meanwhile me and my tribe, who can clean up well and hold discussion in the snob-set but choose not to, will be having a grand time laughing and enjoying fellowship on the tailgate of a pickup truck. The laughter and fun is always on our side of the aisle. The totalitarian mind that needs to control people is a life of misery and an endless quest to fill a void that we simply don’t have.

Block my tribe out of your social or economic system because we refuse to put untested secret chemicals in my veins, and it ain’t us that’s losing – just sayin’. We know how to adapt, survive and create another parallel economy that will work just fine.

Do what is in the best interest of your faith, your family and your community. Losing your peace of mind is not part of that equation.

Chin up folks, this announcement by Joe Biden is a hail-mary reflecting just how desperate they are.

You are, in this moment, exactly who you were yesterday. Don’t take any ownership of anything put upon you. Additionally, look around and do not do anything to support COVID compliance operators in any area of your local society.

Live bigly and organize your personal life for maximum freedom. Keep the mindset of an insurgent and do not allow them to steal your peace of mind.

It’s their change. To the extent you can avoid it, don’t accept it.

'See You In Court': Kristi Noem, Others Blast Biden's Workplace Vaccine Mandate

President Joe Biden's workplace vaccine and testing requirement was met with plenty of criticism on Twitter from conservatives and Republican politicians promising to push back on what they view as blatantly unconstitutional overreach.

The administration's six-pronged "Path Out of the Pandemic" includes a controversial provision that would require private companies with over 100 employees to require them to submit to either a Covid-19 vaccine or weekly testing. The edict would be enforced by OSHA, the federal agency responsible for worker safety.

"We are going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers," Biden said Thursday. "This is not about freedom or personal choice. It's about protecting those around you."

The Republican National Committee quickly promised a lawsuit "to fight Biden’s unconstitutional actions and authoritarian decrees."-- excerpt, rest at link above --
