The United States Postal Service (USPS) workers will be exempt from the mandatory vaccine requirements of all federal workers. The most logical reason for the Biden carve-out is the blackmail and leverage carried by the USPS for their role in the 2020 mail-in ballot fraud. Quid pro Joe.
WASHINGTON POST – U.S. Postal Service workers were not included in Biden’s executive order requiring all federal employees to get vaccinated against the coronavirus, according to a White House official speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss not-yet-public portions of the president’s plan. The postal workers would be strongly encouraged to comply with the mandate, the official said.
The move exempts a massive chunk of the federal workforce — 644,000 employees and growing as the agency ramps up seasonal hiring — that interacts daily with an equally large swath of the public. One of the Postal Service’s powerful unions, the American Postal Workers Union, in July criticized the administration’s efforts to require federal workers to be vaccinated and demanded that postal leadership collectively bargain on the issue.

On a positive note, this unilateral exemption provides massive support for any lawsuit against the Biden administration over the forced vaccination order. The DOJ cannot claim ‘public health’ as a reason for the mandate and simultaneously claim the USPS carve-out is unrelated.
Funny the one group that actually touches that which every American then is exposed to. Memory reminds me of the scares that Covid could pass on objects. It’s why we couldn’t find Clorox wipes for months.
If we want to play devil’s advocate to this nonsense one could argue postal workers are the most important group to get the jab.
The legal argument for postal worker exemption will be pure comedy.
It’s like the insider trading laws that would put you in prison that are not applicable to Congressmen….
I don’t think Parasite Biden has any choice anyway. Pretty sure the Postal Workers have an iron-clad contract. I mean, the Constitution is optional but their contract isn’t.
I wonder how many other unions got exemptions for their members?
SEIU?
Remember how unions got exemptions from Obamacare mandates?
NO, those weren’t mandates. Those were Laws of the Land.
Or taxes, or not, or maybe they are.
Does Hunter own Pfizer stock?
They all do, I’m guessing
A: Pfizer owns Hunter stock.
can we get antibodies from the Post People?
they seem like they are the cure for Covid.
This is absolutely hilarious, what a bunch of jokers.
Just when you think the world can not get any crazier, the current illegal Oval Office occupant opens his mouth…………
Heh…I’ve already had a friend call me up, all upset about now being forced to take the jab, but the postal workers don’t have to. No, this isn’t going to work for the Covid Nazis.
As SD said “leave the pizzas on the sidewalk”………………
So much room for creativity. 😉 We will win this.
This is the first, large-scale, Dem error that I have observed in over ten years. It’s not the kind that will disappear.
It will likely be revisited in a public way very soon. If left hanging, it will undo Biden’s Marxist Republic.
Sundance’s point re DOJ and ramifications on litigation is also a major, major point that will also metastasize to other dimensions in this lowest of low points in American history since the Civil War.
They can steal elections, they don’t care about optics anymore.
Election integrity is where we need to focus.
Glad you recovered from the August coma.
You must be lost or something.
The Post Office is also being rewarded for this:
Rest in the Vine: The New Stamp Act: Spying For Democrats at the Post Office,
You Know–The Way the Framers Intended!(tm):
Did Ben Franklin and the Framers really create the Postal Service as a free-floating domestic spy agency? And a partisan one, at that?
If you recall, the Post Office was delivering semi-trailers full of phony Mail-In ballots in Pennsylvania–or purposely delivering trucks full of real blank ballots to known vote-fraudsters. And then tried to strong-arm the whistle-blower.
They also back-dated Biden ballots after the election was over. And again strong-armed the whistle-blowers. Also, they threw Trump campaign mail in the trash.
And now, they are spying on the People whose election they just helped steal. On the taxpayer’s dime. Perfect, really.
Every institution of American life that we created to guard our liberties has now turned inward and is attacking those very liberties. This cannot go on.
Rest in the Vine: iCOP, or Internet Covert Operations Program:
The Post Office is Out of Control:
“The Internet Covert Operations Program is a function within the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, which assesses threats to Postal Service employees and its infrastructure by monitoring publicly available open source information,” the statement said. “Additionally, the Inspection Service collaborates with federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to proactively identify and assess potential threats to the Postal Service, its employees and customers, and its overall mail processing and transportation network. In order to preserve operational effectiveness, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service does not discuss its protocols, investigative methods, or tools.”…….
The Post Office needs to spy on the political opinions and political donations of 100 million Trump supporters out of self-defense, you see. It’s you. You are dangerous. You are a threat to the Post Office.
Really? Cos’ we bake Christmas cookies for ours.
They fear the People. This super-sized surveillance program, using all facets of government and corporate power, too, is the digital equivalent of the Berlin Wall erected around our Concertina Capitol by the Occupation Government. In a representative democracy, the only reason for that fear is because they know they have betrayed the People–and they plan to keep betraying us.
That’s their bullshit justification for surveilling half the country. Actually, more than half, since Actual President Trump won in an overwhelming landslide.
But one excuse is just as good as another when you want to build a One-Party Police State.
We don’t need an 55-cent American Gestapo, run by crooked election-stealers.

“We deliver emails, too, Mr. Kramer. After we read them. I’ll bet you didn’t know that.”
I agree with Sundance the carve out for postal workers (who not only deal with fellow workers but members of the public as a matter of course) cannot be squared with penalties on private employers for not forcing every employee to get vaccinated and the booster and the next booster and the next booster…..ad nauseam. It was already on shaky ground now its toast. Typical stupid Biden being played by his handlers. But this nauseating dessicated husk ..this wretched classless clown..this vicious buffoon has actually just tried to get millions of Americans to hate each other FOR AN EFFING lie. He is vulgar in the extreme. The contempt I have for him is palpable.
Not just one lie. Like a layered cake…lie upon lie upon lie. And the trouble with lying to the extremes that they have lied is that they have to remember ALL the lies so they aren’t exposed for the lying liars we and everybody else know them to be. Fortunately for us but not for them, there are tweets, emails, press conferences, testimonies in front of congressional hearings (under oath), video recordings, interviews. A veritable recorded history of half truths, twisted facts, and their unadulterated lying. A very nice and accurate comment, Marcus.
We let it slide one time before, with the 2008 bank bail out.
Dems hate covid , but think it’s just something they have to deal with.
Once they know clearly what it is, their anger will shift from internal to where it came from
Remember when the most important thing in the world was to have a president who acted “presidential”?
Oh… the gravitas thing. Long time I heard that word…
You are so right MarcusCrassus:
“ this wretched classless clown..this vicious buffoon has actually just tried to get millions of Americans to hate each other FOR AN EFFING lie. He is vulgar in the extreme. The contempt I have for him is palpable.”
Who wants to bet the teachers’ unions are next?
I think Sundance is right with the legal challenges based on this exemption, man Eric I feel for you every time I see you post knowing you’re in the heart of the stupidity.
Side note, I went the the post office in downtown Huntsville, AL a few weeks. Not a single Covid poster, CDC poster or mask notice in the entire building. No employees wearing masks. It was like stepping back into time to 2019.
The USPS seem to be a solid bunch, minus the whole mail in vote fraud thing ?????
The teachers’ unions have been using the lack of mandates as an excuse not to have to go back to work.
Are you kidding? The teachers are some of the staunchest defendants of the masks and vaccines.
. . . And CA teacher here (and NOT vaxxed).
Good for you. ??
I’m in CA Ann parents since last year were upset that not all teachers are vaccinated. Then when I say “its a personal choice tho” the parent immediately agree. Can’t make it make sense. Lol
for OTHERS, NOT for them
They’d be hard pressed to ask for an exemption after spending the last year whining about how dangerous school was because everyone wasn’t vaccinated and masked.
What about the Sercet Sevice? They have to protect him will they take the jab or say your on your own Joe. Bet they won’t comply.
Everyone around Joe wears a mask, even if they’ve been vaccinated. I expect they’re worried about some breakthrough infection that could take off an old man in frail health.
I would hope they wouldn’t comply, but they probably will. Not a whole lot of difference between them and the FBI, et al.
bet they will, the SS could have taken ‘care’ of the Biden problem for this country already if they had the guts
The way this trap works is nornally as follows
A) OfficiallyLeak x policy to see how it is received
B) Any ‘friends’ who complain, after the heads up, are accommodated
So far so good, political ‘friends’ are happy. But then!
C) Unofficial, off the record leak that highlights this ‘accommodation’ before it can be obfuscated, friendly press briefed etc
D) Deny it, this is a completely untrue, message was confused by underling etc, etc.
E)Second unofficial leak, usually to the same source as the first, proves that the original leak was true and the government are lying.
F) Policy usually implodes, government damaged.
I’ll watch to see if this pattern repeats itself with this fiasco.
Yes , they measured in 2 hour intervals throughout their announcements today
Well, we’re already at D, so you appear to be on target!
The Bidan Regime can’t even get Totalitarianism squared away.
There is NO WAY that White House staff, NIH or Pfizer employees will be forced to take their own medicine.
What about US FEDERAL Marshals do you think they will cower to his demands. NOT
I wonder how long it will take us to realize that LEO are not the sacred “hero” cow we have been told to believe all our lives.
They will ABSOLUTELY comply.
Today, Adolph Biden declared himself dictator of the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America, by giving orders for the people & repeatedly stating he has the power to do it.
He has thumbed his nose at Supreme Court decisions & openly defies & plots ways to bring the decisions down.
Tonight, he made the Napoleonic error proclaiming himself sole dictator of we, the people, telling us we must take jabot be in a non-vaxed “camp,” & that “another” worse illness looms.
Prophetic, like Fauci in 2018 stating President Donald Trump would face a disastrous flu in this country in 2020.
King Vichy
Joe Biden’s “vaccine” is going to destroy the “Bad Guys” reset agenda. People see the hypocrisy and see they whole Covid thing as a bioweapon political tool. It is starting to unravel on them. They are losing control and getting desperate.
Dhims know that they are going to loose bigly if there is an election in 22. The objective is to create more grief, aggravation and consternation so as to create cover for a false flag event that will barely justify marshall law so elections can be cancelled. Couple this with election audits picking up steam & the dhims aren’t taking any chances. They’ve put their agenda on steroids to achieve their goal of the dissolution of the U S of A. Pelosi was meeting with soros & son this past weekend. I doubt the college football season was the hot topic???
I hope you’re right. Like you, I am optimistic, but admit I am baffled by the number of city folks and millennials who have irrational views.
Has the line in the sand been crossed?

This is so ludicrous. Postal workers are probably the most germ exposed federal workers.
They deal with mail and packages from all over the world, travel to all citizens homes and work places.
Postal workers are the most likely candidate for super spreaders and they get an exemption.
The lunatics are truly running the asylum.
I guess the PO employees are now involved. They must have asked for a carve out. Are these employees culpable in this? I’m just trying to figure out how the lines get drawn. You know with uniforms and such.
Biden … thy name is hypocrisy.
Bang the Covid drum right back at them.
What other government agency is as “customer facing” as the postal workers, who literally operate retail establishments on behalf of the federal government to move parcels and interact with citizens, up to and including pickup and delivery to their individual homes. If grocery store workers, librarians, nurses etc are being vaccinated, it is only RIGHT and JUST that postal workers do as well. It is for their own safety that their workers are protected from this nasty icky virus.
When encountering a vax nazi ask them, Why must I be vaxed and not a postal worker?
If you lived in the 1800s your only contact with the Federal Govt was the Post Office. Yes, there was a draft during the Civil War, and the few importers/shippers/vessel owners had to deal with US Customs, which employed about 8000 officers in Lincoln’s presidency, and of course the early census was taken by US Marshals. But for almost everyone, there was just the Post Office.
No income tax (Civil War small exception). Really, few laws and even fewer people to enforce them. Even in JFKs time there were only 300 Marshals and deputies. Want opium? Perfectly legal to import, possess, use, and sell.
Sounds…refreshing.
I had a great-great aunt who was chronically ill in the early 1900s. I never knew her, but Dad remembered her vaguely from his childhood in the 1930s. She was a laudanum addict. They bought it over the counter at the drug store.
The best thing at the moment that we the people can do for the “public health” is to do whatever we can collectively to rid the White House of slow joe and his minions ASAP.
Timing is everything. It is hard to disrupt their self-destruction with any destruction of your own. I say let them eradicate themselves for awhile.
People are really starting to notice the runaway inflation. Every trip to the grocery store and every stop at the gas station a reminder.
From page one comments, they’re already walking it back….
UPDATED 20 minutes ago — at 9:00 PM EST. NOW they are saying that there is “confusion” over mandatory vaccination of postal employees and they WILL have to be vaccinated…..https://www.nationalreview.com/news/postal-workers-exempt-from-new-vaccine-requirements-report/
That will REALLY piss off the postal workers. You get a reprieve and then it’s taken away? ?Wow. The Biden cluster F matches on!?
“U.S. Postal Service workers are subject to a rule to be developed by the Labor Department mandating coronavirus vaccinations for workers and weekly testing for non-vaccinated employees at companies with over 100 workers, a senior Biden administration official told CNN and the Washington Post”
That doesn’t sound like forcing anyone to do anything.
These people didn’t walk anything back.
They just put more of the fine print in there hoping no one will see
The White House wants a fight now. It takes the attention off Afghanistan right before the 20th anniversary of 9/11. It give the Left a new enemy, anti-vaccers.
The Left loves to portray conservatives as knuckle-dragging, Bible-thumpers in MAGA hats who suspect anyone with one of them there Pee-aitch-dees. Watch them start to blame inflation, or any other economic or social problem, on the MAGA anti-vaccers.
It’s not that we shouldn’t fight back, but the timing and motives are obvious.
It means they got a plan for Sept 19 to make us all get round up
As long as whatever the distraction, it beats what puts them in jail……election audits. That is the big Kahuna for “Bad Guys”.
Same old playbook as Rush used to say!
I’ll believe it when I see it, but this is HUGE!

Hogan is a PO S Commie Dem! He doesn’t have a Conservative Bone in his Obese Body.. I despise everything about him.
….and soon to be California Governor Larry Elder.
Asa’s statement wasn’t exactly a strong denouncement of presidential tyranny. Sounded like he was playing it both ways. He is a very weak, and possibly corrupt man.
Creepy Joe will just move them out of the way if they interfere. ? What a fascist.

Expect a lot of drooling by the MSM tomorrow about how forceful and presidential Biden was.
Can I get an exemption from all that 3rd class junk mail they deliver?
So does this mean that every piece of mail you get may be infected with ChinaFlu from a non shot up postal worker? Will people start wearing latex gloves to open their mail?
USPS employees are exempt from the mandatory vaccine, because they helped in the voter fraud, but the illegitimate president knows, what every Patriot knows. Trump won.
The irony is rich,no vaccines for postal workers when they are contagious disease vectors. They carry packages to your door and touch every house in the neighborhood. In a highly contagious pandemic do you really want people going door to door? That’s one way you could tell it was always a scamdemic.
Can you inherit this special treatment?
If you are in the military, but your father is/was a postman, like with Kashish, do you still have to get shot up, looks like every 6 months now?
thru the cracks.
this article (snippets) suggest all us rednecks would avoid our local grocer pharmacy to not get the 2nd dose.
a) its because they got hurt/harmed by it.
b) its more than 14 million, way more considering JJ.
c) it really really has them angry.
d) that is enough highly motivated people to change election outcomes.
“Missed their second dose”? How about “refused it”?
exactly.
by June you could walk in anywhere and get it.
MessNBC will report tomorrow that they all skipped their second dose because they took horse dewormer.
Instapundit had a shrewd comment tonight. The Delta variant may be fizzling out, so if Biden institutes this mandate now, he will try to make it look like the mandate squelched Delta, and not that it simply lived out its natural lifespan.
This would give Biden a “win” after his failures with the economy, the border, Afghanistan..
Just to add to this the new testing methodology will go into effect in January per cdc.
Is this “new” testing mandate using the “old” and discredited PCR testing that is to be sunset December 31, 2021?
Yup. These commies are shrewd.

The Don completely misunderstands the 1918 SARs ‘Spanish’ Flu. It killed everyone regardless of age and the young were often more at risk.
Cv is nothing remotely like 1918. Cv vaccinations have not saved hundreds of millions of lives. The young have near zero risk of death by Cv. If you aren’t 70+ or with serious co-morbidities, Cv is a non event.
The Spanish flu virus is also STILL around as will be COVID virus if we last another 100 years until the Second Coming
That’s true. The NIH (Dr. Death), Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation along with the DOD, funded the reconstruction of the 1918 Spanish Flu in 2005 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. It was given gain-of-function for use as a bio-weapon. It is called H1N1. On the CDC website under 2020 flu it shows up as the orange marker, and is indeed, currently circulating.
Clean up on aisle 3!
Maybe Emerald can ask Raggedy Ann about this tomorrow. Of course RA will not answer but the sound bite will be glorious lol
The “CIC” is a treasonous See You Next Tuesday.
That is all.
Maybe you could get John Roberts to call it a tax.

USPS is and has been treated somewhat separately since early 1970s with Postal reg act. It has a Board of Governors and a Postmaster General. For example, if the govt shuts down the USPS has not. Or an executive order for a day off for all governmental employees, wouldn’t include postal workers.
I’m not in agreement with what Biden is threatening but there is and has been a problem with Covid spread from the beginning within the USPS ranks.
Let’s just say Covid is treated like the flu was handled pre Covid. Mgmt basically would insist a worker come in, even if your dead . . . and even then you need to bring in a death certificate.

I think this comment sums it up nicely:
https://www.gettr.com/post/pam3iy1b0b
While I’m glad #RNC#GOP @GOPChairwoman & others finally woke up, where was this amount of resolve for 4 years while they sat sidelines while Pres Trump was drilled every day. Where’s Ronna been for 7 months? @JennaEllisEsq @Brigitte @SteveBannon @WarRoom
RNC will do nothing significant because the current RNC supports their candidate in the white house and crushing MAGA is their primary motivation. Sadly, some will still believe them out of desperation instead of seeking out their America First replacements challengers.
You know who this guy is right. Its all talk….
as he and Rottenberg were INSTRUMENTAL in the steal on GA on 3 Nov 2020…I think those 2019 payoffs from Dominion came in handy for them
They will find an Obama judge to say the post office exemption is rational.
