Crenshaw Rails at Biden Vaccine Mandate: ‘Are You People Trying to Start A Full On Revolt?’
“Are you people trying to start a full on revolt? Honestly what the hell is wrong with Democrats? Leave people the hell alone. This is insanity,” Crenshaw noted on Twitter. “Mandates are cheap governance. The right path is built upon explaining, educating, and *building* trust, including explaining the risks/benefits/pros/cons in an honest way so a person can make their own decision. The Biden Administration has completely failed in that regard,” he continued.

Talk about creepy big government sleepy Joe style.  Joe is going all in with dystopian big brother on this and other issues like Jim’s bank account seed. Big government progressive democrats are trying to seize power away from we the people and concentrate it in a few secular progressive elites hands.  That’s what the mandate fight is all about.  Big blue national state and city political leaders trying to play god over the common citizen.  Well, we are sovereign here.  They are our public servants.  We are not their subjects and we will use every legal means to assure that it stays that way.

Crenshaw Rails at Biden Vaccine Mandate: ‘Are You People Trying to Start A Full On Revolt?’



by Jonathan Davis about 5 hours agoupdated about 2 hours ago


Rep. Dan Crenshaw tore into Joe Biden and his administration following the president’s Thursday address in which he announced he was implementing a mandate for most companies to require their employees to get a COVID-19 vaccine or face thousands of dollars in fines per employee.

The Texas Republican’s comments came after Biden made his announcement Thursday afternoon in an address from the White House in which he appeared to blame new rises in COVID cases on unvaccinated Americans.

“Many of us are frustrated with the nearly 80 million Americans who are still not vaccinated, even though the vaccine is safe, effective, and free,” Biden said .

“This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Biden went on to claim.

“And it’s caused by the fact that despite America having an unprecedented and successful vaccination program, despite the fact that for almost five months free vaccines have been available in 80,000 different locations, we still have nearly 80 million Americans who have failed to get the shot,” he said.

“My job as president is to protect all Americans. So tonight, I’m announcing that the Department of Labor is developing an emergency rule to require all employers with 100 or more employees that together employ over 80 million workers to ensure their workforces are fully vaccinated or show a negative test at least once a week,” Biden added.

The president’s mandate did not sit well with Crenshaw, a former U.S. Navy SEAL officer and combat veteran.

“Are you people trying to start a full on revolt? Honestly what the hell is wrong with Democrats? Leave people the hell alone. This is insanity,” Crenshaw noted on Twitter .

“Mandates are cheap governance. The right path is built upon explaining, educating, and *building* trust, including explaining the risks/benefits/pros/cons in an honest way so a person can make their own decision. The Biden Administration has completely failed in that regard,” he continued.

“Our founders designed a system that treated citizens as more than just children. Our grand experiment is designed for a free people,” he added.

“Yes, that entails risk. Yes, I’ll take risk and freedom over a paternalistic government any day,” he wrote .

“And it should be noted, a huge portion of the unvaccinated are younger minorities. So this impacts a broad range of people, not just ‘anti-vaxxer Trump supporters,’ as Dems believe,” the Texas Republican said.

“Democrats are declaring war on everyone, not just conservatives.”

It’s not clear if Biden’s order will withstand legal scrutiny, but it’s likely to be tested, as several Republican governors have expressed opposition and have vowed to fight it.

“Biden’s vaccine mandate is an assault on private businesses. I issued an Executive Order protecting Texans’ right to choose whether they get the COVID vaccine & added it to the special session agenda. Texas is already working to halt this power grab,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said on Twitter.

“How could we get to the point in this country where you would not let them earn a living because of their choice on the vaccine?” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis added. “I just think that’s fundamentally wrong. I do not believe that people should lose their jobs over this issue, and we will fight that.”

“I will pursue every legal option available to the state of Georgia to stop this blatantly unlawful overreach by the Biden administration,” Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp said.

“South Dakota will stand up to defend freedom,” South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem noted. “Joe Biden see you in court.”

The lunatic minority who refuse to get vaccinated are restricting the freedom of everyone else from living our normal lives.

They're also prolonging this pandemic, putting other people at risk, and are to blame for why there are variants arising and for the enduring pandemic. Mandates may not be popular. But opposing them when it can help end the pandemic and potentially save lives is stupid and irresponsible.

Good grief man, the mutation is a product of evolution.   You know, that pseudoscience / worldwide conspiracy that you claim.    It is not controlled, it is (from our perspective) random and unpredictable.

Further, where do you get this utter nonsense that it is possible today for human beings to engineer a virus with preprogrammed waves of mutations that magically are emitted based on information about the the degree of infection in the population?   You cannot possibly believe that nonsense.   Or do you?

Your comments express a fundamental misunderstanding of evolution and of the capabilities of biological engineering.   You need to find a different source for your 'truth' because what you are expressing is beyond naive.

Ponder this, how could an engineered virus acquire information so that it knows its current variant is waning and thus must now 'magically' produce a new variant?

All one need do is think just a tiny bit and one would see that what you propose is impossible.

The variants are arising due to the nature of the engineered virus released from the wuhan lab in China.

Come on now. All viruses mutate. Do you not know that?

Even if what you claim is true (and you have no evidence for it, but let’s assume for fun that it’s true), shouldn’t we still try to fight the virus by vaccinating everybody? It’s like anything - viruses, global warming, pollution, crime. We can argue about where it came from, but we still need to do something about it.

Wow, that's some grade A conspiracy theory BS right there! Do you even understand anything about virology or how viruses function? Viruses naturally mutate into different variants from infected individuals. The more people that are infected, the greater the chance for mutations. That's why there are so many different strains of Flu. It's a natural process.

There is no reasoning. Just sheer delusion. That's the problem.

Do some real research.

I'll bet the  only "research" will be from conservative, conspiracy and/or religious sources.

Even worse, a virus is not a life form and certainly does not have cognitive abilities as he described.   It is as if he thinks China created a nanobot virus that can sense the environment, calculate when infections are waning in society, and then engineer a new variant to re-infect the population.

It is beyond ridiculous.   Where do such crazy notions come from?

Right.

The vaccinated can spread Covid just as easily as the unvaccinated.

Data from COVID-19 tests in the United States, the United Kingdom and Singapore are showing that vaccinated people who become infected with Delta SARS-CoV-2 can carry as much virus in their nose as do unvaccinated people. This means that despite the protection offered by vaccines, a proportion of vaccinated people can pass on Delta, possibly aiding its rise.

“People who have a Delta virus and happen to have ‘breakthrough’ infections can carry these really high levels of virus, and can unwittingly spread the virus to others,” says David O’Connor, a virologist at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

The findings underscore the importance of protective measures such as wearing masks indoors to reduce transmission. Researchers stress that COVID-19 vaccines are protective against serious illness and death, but the data on Delta transmission show that “people who are vaccinated still need to take precautions”, O’Connor says.

So you still need to wear a mask and practice social distancing even if you are fully vaccinated.

If Democrats really cared about stopping the spread of Covid then they would end the single biggest ongoing super spreader event on the southern border. Seems the left can't comprehend the spike in Covid 19 infection rates started at the same time the surge in illegal border crossings did. Of course to prove it Biden would have to allow testing on all illegals apprehended at the border; not just if they are showing symptoms. He would not dump responsibility of testing those departing detention centers on the states- who only bother testing the largest centers. Of course getting real data would bring a lot more unwanted attention to both the border crisis and what is really causing the spike in Covid cases. 

More than 18 percent of migrant families and 20 percent of unaccompanied minors who recently crossed the U.S. border tested positive for Covid on leaving Border Patrol custody over the past two to three weeks, according to a document prepared this week for a Thursday briefing with President Joe Biden .

Some flights scheduled to deport migrants had more than 25 percent of passengers test positive before departure, leading Immigration and Customs Enforcement to remove those migrants from the flights for quarantine in the U.S., according to the document.

The Department of Homeland Security document does not give precise dates or say how many migrants were tested.

Migrants are not tested for Covid in Border Patrol custody unless they show symptoms, but all are tested when they leave Border Patrol custody, according to DHS officials. Immigrants who are allowed to stay in the U.S. to claim asylum are given tests when they are transferred to ICE, Health and Human Services or non-governmental organizations. Deportees who are scheduled to be put on planes out of the U.S. are tested for Covid and other infectious diseases by ICE.

The cases in the Rio Grande Valley sector detention facilities now account for 60% of all detainees confirmed to have COVID-19 and are under CBP’s care, Fox News reported Tuesday. The striking figure regarding the RGV sector, one of the busiest sections of the border through which thousands of people cross daily, comes as the Biden administration contends with a worsening crisis at the southern border.

The number of noncitizens encountered by law enforcement in June, nearly 190,000 people, is the highest counted in more than 21 years. Of that total, roughly 105,000 people were sent back to Mexico and denied asylum. Border Patrol counted 113,000 adults, 15,000 unaccompanied children, and 50,000 people traveling as part of a family group last month.

The number of illegal migrant apprehensions has been ticking up monthly since March 2020 and ballooned this spring as President Joe Biden loosened a pandemic-era policy stipulating that no one who came across is detained but instead be turned back to Mexico. The monthly tally of new border crossings swelled as Biden began rolling back some Trump-era border restrictions put in place last year that aimed to prevent further spread of COVID-19 in the United States.

Border officials do not typically test detainees at the southern border. Rather, detainees are tested after they are transferred to other locations, such as other government-run facilities. Unaccompanied migrant children, for instance, are placed in the care of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, part of the Department of Health of Human Services, where they can be tested.

Vaccination rates in Central American countries where most migrants come from are significantly lower than those in the U.S., prompting fears that an influx of unvaccinated people at the southern border could exacerbate the spread of the highly transmissible delta variant now responsible for about 83% of active cases in the U.S.

Of course immigrants are slow to get vaccinated as well.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently announced that, starting October 1, 2021, green card applicants will be required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Meanwhile, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis demanded the Biden administration provide personal information on undocumented migrants being relocated to Florida, including names, addresses and the number of people who tested positive for Covid-19 or refused the vaccine. These two developments pinpoint one of the main challenges of immigrants in the United States and the rate at which they are getting vaccinated. That challenge is that there is a substantial disparity in vaccination rates between undocumented immigrants on the one hand, and U.S. citizens and lawful residents on the other. Based on a recent Kaiser Family Foundation survey only about 25 % of "potentially undocumented" immigrants in the United States received their vaccine. This proportion of vaccinated individuals is half of the average vaccine rate of U.S. adults. The discrepancy is primarily due to the fear of deportation and lack of accessibility of undocumented immigrants to government programs.

Blame your fellow countrymen by all means; instead of where it really belongs, with Joe Biden and his asinine policies that are putting everyone at risk.

Never let reality get in the way of a Democrat self made crisis.

“This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Biden went on to claim.

”Claim?” Is that mean to imply that this in dispute?

“Are you people trying to start a full on revolt?

Are you trying to see how many Americans we can allow to die from Covid? “The greatest country on Earth” has by far the most Covid deaths. Are you proud of that? I’m not.

Honestly what the hell is wrong with Democrats?

What the hell is wrong with you ? Do you enjoy seeing children in Intensive Care?

Pediatric Covid hospitalizations surge to highest on record in U.S. as doctors brace for more

Leave people the hell alone.

Gladly. Stay your vaccine-hating, pandemic-death-loving ass at home until those of us who actually give a shit about the health of our fellow human beings get this problem solved. Or better yet just move to some enemy country where they hate American lives as much as you do.

Yes, I’ll take risk

You don’t get to decide that for other people.

“How could we get to the point in this country where you would not let them earn a living because of their choice on the vaccine?”

We don’t let drug dealers earn a living either. Where are the cries of “FREEDOM!” for people who just want to mind their own business and make a nice living selling Meth, Heroine, and Fentanyl? Where are the cries of “FREEDOM!” for prostitutes? For migrants? For the homeless?

How come you’ll fight a war on drugs and sex for 50 fuckin years , but you won’t stand up and fight a virus? You’ll like people up for decades for those things, but you can’t find the stones to get stabbed with a little needle? Coward!

We have had mandatory vaccines for all sorts of things for decades. For going to school, getting certain jobs, etc. Join the military and they will jam half a dozen needles into your arm the very first week. But suddenly in 2021, this veteran thinks vaccines are controversial?

Bullshit! I have never in my life seen such an irresponsible politicized abuse of Freedom.
