1. SCOOP: Biden Admin is not done putting members of U.S. armed services at risk, mandating U.S. Marines receive first dose vaccinations before WTI (Weapons Tactics Instructions) in a week, ignoring apps for exemptions that include religious and history of Myocarditis.
Further..
2. Further, the second dose will be administered during WTI, in a remote location with only field medic attention available to them.
Again, this is ordered for those who have known medical conditions that were considered viable causes for exemptions only a week ago.
These are all people who had no problem getting vaccinated for scores of other diseases.
They were told they would have the ability to obtain waivers and are now facing the choice between risk to personal harm and/or violation of conscience, or professional ruination.
Reading the documents provided to us (of course it's documented), service members who refuse to take the vaccination will be "dealt with via administrative or disciplinary measures, i.e., AdSep, NJP or court-martial."
There is not enough time for waivers to be issued.
Again, the main issue here, which is expected given how these things play out in real life, is that the Biden Admin is claiming there is an accommodation for religious exemption and exemption for certain medical conditions, but in reality is not afforded to them.
. @USMC leadership is instructing those who object to vaccination to receive "professional medical advice" that regardless will preach "safety and effectiveness".
If they object, they will be court-martialed.
The exemption paperwork is purely CYA. There's no time for processing
It's a Catch 22. If you have a religious exemption, then DoD tells them to apply for it, claims they were allowed.
Except, they won't actually have time for the "Chaplain Interview Checklist" (sound familiar @DeptofDefense?) because they just got orders and the deadline is here.
And honestly, this is what many of them are concerned about. Not for themselves, but for their Battles who they know are seeking waivers for legitimate conditions linked to Pfizer.
For those seeking religious exemptions, there is no time for them to get a "Chaplain Interview Checklist" before the "Religious Accommodation Review Board".
This thread reports on the DeSantis/Haley Feud over who sucks less. I'm going to quote repost a few with data showing why they are both making arguments that are incorrect and irrelevant.
In 2018, @JohnKerry met in London w/ Hussein Agha, a close associate of Mahmoud Abbas, and told him NOT to talk peace with Trump B/C he would be removed from office w/in a year and after Abbas would get a better deal.
2. @JohnKerry asked Agha to tell Abbas that Palestinians should “play for time” until Trump was removed, after which, it would be the "time for Palestinians to define their peace principles" instead of accepting Trump's two-state proposal.
Now all these people are dead.
3. Realizing the Palestinians were never going to come to the table, especially not with members of the opposition party engaging in actual sedition and undermining his peace plan, Trump moved to united the Arab countries with Israel and isolate the Palestinians with the accords.
Republican leadership and the vast majority of the elected conference in both chambers lie to get elected, then cave in the face of opposition from media and Democrats, while selling out their voters to donors and rent-seekers.
It's not a sustainable political environment.
All these years polling party leadership, it has always been the case that Democrats like their leaders and have favorable opinions of them, while Republicans HATE their leaders.
Why, irrationality?
No, it's rational to loathe someone who constantly lies to and betrays you.
A few things people who misread the electorate never understood, and why things they thought would hurt Trump have actually made him stronger.
1. Regime Credibility
This isn't the 1980s. GE voters do not trust his enemies. FBI, DOJ, etc. are deeply corrupt and voters know it.
Once upon a time, federal prosecutors had credibility and their accusations in indictments were trusted. But nobody trusts them anymore, with good reason.
It's been bad for years, but bad actors like @Comey, @petestrzok, Weismann, etc, totally killed all faith in the feds.
@Comey @petestrzok Now on to the primary.
2. GOP Voters Were Not "Ready to Move on from Trump"
Even at DeSantis' high water mark, the data never suggested a big enough lane existed to derail Trump. Nobody ever dominated the wine track (educated) enough to counter Trump dominating the beer track.
Post Script: The scumbag who did that owes us thousands of dollars and is the reason we @BIGDATAPOLL now have a pay first policy.
He's basically a former cop pretending to be a political strategist who folds up shop with each billing cycle, because the law makes it hard to chase… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Laura, when they first pulled that libel, attempted to publish his deadbeat account for all to see, but @elonmusk and his fake crusade against speech suppression kept suppressing it.
In fact, she tried again tonight and it refused to publish, again.
The DeSantis strategy 'he's the anti-lockdown champion' isn't working for a few reasons, the biggest being 1) voters aren't stupid and 2) it's not true.
Point being, politics are politics, and that's the nature of the game. But why are these angles not working for DeSantis AND, moreover, why are they dug in like ticks pretending nothing is wrong?
They attack everyone, and conduct ZERO introspection. It's rather pathetic.
