Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is putting himself in a direct confrontation with the federal government in order to protect workers in his state.
Earlier today Florida Governor Ron DeSantis repeated his threat to fine any entity, business, county, city or federal offices with a $5,000 fine -per incident- if they attempt to discriminate against unvaccinated employees, or threaten the employment status of non-vaccinated workers.
Appearing together with Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, DeSantis stated: “If a government agency in the state of Florida forces a vaccine as a condition to employment, that violates Florida law and you will pay”…
.
Go RON GO!!!!
Take this as more good news. The Machine functions on its own time-table. We’re free-thinking independent particles of it with a deep conscience which drive us to seek some actions which are actually taking place through all the other particles around us.
We just go about our business cheerfully and happily as wily as serpents and when the Machine starts changing you’ll recognize it.
We all know Socialists are pussies. When the Men (represented in their particular set of particles) start moving against them, there will be nothing they can do. Except go crazy, go to jail, or accept whatever mercy they can find.
Just do what the Lord wants you to every day, and watch what happens.
No Quarter. Betas gonna cry when we start.
Amen good word!
Why not a million per violation? This needs to end ASAP!
Should have been the exact amount in Biden’s mandate. $14,000. It’s a good start tho.
Wait ten years and $10,000 will buy you a potato
Politicians will never be that cheap.
$5,000 fine -per incident is good with me.
I listened to the first part of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and was happy to see someone fighting for the American worker.
Do I hear $5M? Make it hurt.
How about Trillions, that should get their attention.
He totally needed to outbid Biden. This is good. It sets up a lawsuit to establish which of the conflicting provisions apply.
It’s my understanding that DeSantis is quoting a law passed in Florida and the demented one is quoting a new Dept. of Labor regulation. State law would trump that every time.
Because its tax money paying it.
No govt employed person pays any fines. You do.
A great American makes a great governor!
Man oh man we can use 57 Ron DeSantis clones right about now…
?
Yo, Obama bro’, you be changing sides?
Like Heinz ????
You win the Internet today. I see what you did there.
Love My Governor, Ron DeSantis
I live in the socialist state of Minnesota.
I love your Governor, too.
Leave
Although I’m from Minnesota I now live in an even more socialist state- CA!!
Yikes!
When did you leave and head out west?
Our closest neighbors moved to northern Minnesota from Sacramento two years ago. I think it’s going to take a while for them not to be fearful that everyone around them is going to turn them “in”for silly things they could not do in California.
Me too, he is the best!!!
Next up: DeSantis distributes ivermectin and HCQ to every resident of Florida.
This would be really nice. Texas doesn’t seem to have any for its residents.
except Democrats – let them die
Nah, just give them a double shot of what they want–a couple of booster vaccines.
Since this is essentially the largest Stage III drug trial ever using the developed world as the sample size…why don’t they let those who wish not to participate be the control group?
We are the control group which is why they are desperate to end it. Can’t have pesky things like facts turning up.
Maybe the don’t want any witnesses
choosing not to be jabbed IS THE CURE FOR COVID.
IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE!
Exactly B A. I’m happy to be part of the control group, but they don’t want one. A control group makes it too easy for the world to see that the vax is not only ineffective at preventing infection and transmission, but worse.
The longer this goes on, the more obvious it will be that it’s causing severe adverse events. Tens of thousands have been seriously affected in the short term. It could be scary how many are affected in the long term due to organ damage from the spike protein, micro-clots, etc.
AND… those that can drive to Florida can get those without a prescription!!!
Actually you can get from Florida on-line via FLCCC
No way!
You can get over the counter HCQ and/or Ivermectin in Florida?
I have no idea – I’m just “wishful thinking”!
Well, he did open free Regeneron monoclonal antibodies clinics all over the state.
…and now feds are putting a block in FL’s supply for those dispensaries
If I have the antibodies, I am going to approach the gov with the idea that UF med school take my plasma and that of others and create “Gatorclonalbodies” and distribute it free throughout Florida to one and all. Make our own. I may be a three time FSU grad, but UF has the means to do this.
What a governer! Ron is the man! Go Ron! fight this unlawful Biden government. Wish he was my Gov but sad I live in Delaware- Joey Xiden State
If you are conservative you should move to a state like Florida. I know that may not be easy for you. States that are conservative need all the conservatives we can get. It’s the only way we can eventually hold up. I am sorry to say if you are in a blue state you are essentially naked if things get really nasty. Even if you are capable of defending yourself you will most likely end up in front of a Marxist judiciary system. Look understand some cannot. I am merely offering you reasons to leave those places.
Thank God for men like Ron DeSantis. I can tell you I suspect the pressure on him from entities like the IC are tremendous. Go back to what SD wrote about Covid. They are using this as their ticket to gut everything. They have an unlimited amount of money and no guard rails when it comes to ethics. Hope RD holds up through this nightmare.
Agreed. There are several ways we hold power and one of them is how we distribute ourselves across the country. Living in a solid blue state is a waste. In my view, people need to seriously think about moving to red states and/or purple states to help pull them back to red.
Another powerful tool is having kids, and lots of them. Raise them well with strong values.
We need to leverage our economic power, as well.
I believe some of these so-called “blue states” really aren’t that blue. They’re just very corrupt with major election fraud.
I grew up in upstate NY. I now happily live in FL, but still follow NY news a little. The fact that the communist clown deblasio won re-election for NYC mayor a couple years ago despite being very unpopular, is a huge sign of fraud. As far as I could tell, even the socialists didn’t like him. Yet after a ridiculously incompetent first term, he won re-election? Right.
I think if the Newsom recall in CA was fair, Larry Elder would win, but we’ll see if he can overcome the steal.
Thank you Luke for your thoughts. Yes I Am conservative transplanted from high tax New Jersey to Delaware in 2009. Florida not so much in-laws lived there years ago Never liked the climate. So I guess I be here
Born in nj. My wifes side of family born in rural de. Still there. Low property taxes. We moved to sw.fl. 21 years ago. Fl is wonderful but heat is certainly an issue.
Luke: A big game changer (note: rose-colored glasses fully-engaged), would be if it conclusively turns out a number of the blue (or purple) states really aren’t. In which case, it may make sense for some folks to hold out for a bit more sunshine. I think the time is fairly nigh. It sure feels that way. But, I agree with your basic sentiment.
I hate what Ca has become political and really want to fight for if at all possible. It is a most beautiful state geographically; can’t beat the weather when we aren’t burning.
We’re debating subletting our house in California and moving to Florida for a few years.
Well guess you can hold out for the recall. I am pessimistic on that. There’s a lot of good stuff happening even New Yorkers marched chanting F*** Biden. Have no idea how large it was. I understand you want to stay in your home and fight for it. I get it. But if things get bad it will most likely not be a good place. You know your area better than I but my opinion is ultimately we want it to wind up to a conservative governor. That being said, at some point I can see the left/media/IC stirring stuff up in these red states. They will create some event to demand a Gov like RD to turn people over to the Feds for perhaps defending themselves from predators. That will be the test. That’s why the left wants everything federalized, its so no one can escape.
Totally true!
What about purple. NC has doofus Gov. Cooper and a Republican State Legislature. Our Lt. Governor Robinson is a wonderful patriot. Do we stay and fight and hope we aren’t defrauded in the next election? Cooper didn’t win the first time and I know he didn’t win the second time. This state is RED and I know it. We’ve got some urban blight areas that are cheating. The locals are getting very active in local elections and I have hope.
Where are the other Red State Governors?
Hiding under their beds, sucking on their thumbs. COWARDS>
True, my governor, DeWine, set this snowball in motion last year….
News of the mandates prompted Gov. Henry McMaster of South Carolina to say he would fight Mr. Biden and his party “to the gates of hell.”
Several Republican governors vowed to go to court to challenge the constitutionality of the rules that affect two-thirds of American workers, setting the stage for one of the nation’s most consequential legal battles over public health since Republicans sued to overturn the Affordable Care Act.
Can’t we retire Roberts under a republican POTUS? He has been a huge disappointment. I think he is being blackmailed or just a pansy.
My guess: Roberts is blackmailed AND a pansy.
No kidding. De Santis is doing all the heavy lifting. He’s showing how it’s done. The other govs wouldn’t even have to think very much, just follow his leadership, and they can’t even do that. Pathetic doesn’t even begin to describe the situation.
Some employers and business groups welcomed the sweeping new requirements, which affect most federal employees and contractors, health care workers, and companies with 100 or more employees.
Labor unions representing millions of workers expressed a mix of support and reservations.
And Republican leaders issued outright condemnations, calling the mandates a big-government attack on personal freedoms and private business.
Comment deleted by Admin…
Dear Lara ,
I think you misinterpreted my post.
I was trying to point out Republican leaders are pushing back against the commie dems,
And “Labor unions …expressed a mix of support and reservations”…(good).
San Diego;
“About 45 percent said they would rather be fired than comply with a mandate, according to the survey, which was conducted in the past week by the San Diego Police Officers Association. “(good)
Be kind and have a nice day…..
I think some employers welcomed it cause it got them off the hook. Now they can just point to the federal government and say, well, we didn’t want to do this but now we have to. (Heaven forbid they might stand up to this madness.)
Sucking on the cocktails made for them by the dominant apparatus. Most R’s out there (we call RINO’s) are cowards. Follow TPTB is the easy thing to do. Its probably less threatening too. Look at what the left/elite/IC have pulled the last several years. You can see it in the open now thanks to the last 4 years. Pray for DeSantis and people like him. This virus and its vaccines are about total control and perhaps depopulation. And I don’t mean of just the old and sick. There’s bread crumbs all around that lead one to believe something is not right. Hopefully we can win through men like this. Humor is a most effective weapon and those kids pics with Biden is a slam dunk. Use it to spread as much information as you can. We are all warriors in a war of information. Have been for a while just haven’t known it. It will not be pleasant if this war ever goes kinetic. In certain aspects it has but that’s only a microcosm of what’s to come if we cannot persuade the masses to wake up.
…and potentially diminishing the Spirit. I remember surveiling those who were looking to vax the muzzies to suppress the strong Spirit/belief dna/gene. How fascinating to find later it was my dna (RUS, ie, north.eu) that our beloved govt was collecting. The Line of Christ, defanged, subservient, passively viewing their own genocide. Ah, the hook-noses dream. Yet here we are today.
Thank you Luke! Darn nice and truthful post! (Tryin’ to be a bit polite here)
This going to get legally complicated. Dershowitz believes the Feds have the legal power to mandate vaccines, that’s been established long ago. What he’s very wary about is the Fed’s ability to police and punish. That apparently involves Congress, who can count to 80 million.
When Treasury Prohibition Agents tried to make arrests in Rhode Island, the local police routinely locked them up.
Pencil: Alas, Dershowitz is a member in good standing of the Geriatric Chapter of the Beltway Brotherhood.
Yeah, but like Coulter, dismissing him because you don’t like his politics might leave you with less smart conclusions
Go away OJ Lawyer. Back to Epstein island for “Legal Discussions” of course.
Amazing how sensitive to deviation from the narrative some Americans are . No facts, just ad hominem.
Epstein
This case will be distinguishable from the SCOTUS case decided during the Spanish Flu (I believe that’s the basis of Dershowitz’ opinion) because we have the very significant different fact that potentially 100 million workers who have natural immunity are not excepted from the mandate.
Wasn’t he Epstein’s personal attorney?
Dershowitz didn’t review the cases very carefully. They involved states, not the feds and the result was a token fine.
I believe there was one case from about 1905 (Massachusetts I believe) that gave the governor the ok to force vaccinations for diphtheria or maybe small pox. The ruling gave no blanket authorization to the feds.
Dershowitz has actually read the Constitution and is acting on the assumption that it will be followed. That quaint notion has caused us no end of grief as we keep falling back to the “But they can’t DO that!” argument…only to discover that not only CAN they do it, but no one is even batting an eyelash attempting to stop them! Our Founding Fathers (as well as most of my ancestors) are probably rolling in their graves but thus far, no one actually appears to be stopping “them”…or even slowing them down!
Rather, Dershowitz is saying SCOTUS is likely to support the Fed’s power to mandate vaccines but enforcement is much more slippery. Enforcement has a huge political price attached, I believe.
Pencil,
I do not disagree with the political price at all; however, I believe that will be the minimum.
I suspect they will. Obamacare tells us that. Saw a recent interview from Breyer. Good guy but, probably would allow it. Time of national emergency yada yada. There is a sizable amount of popular support for the mandates despite us naysayers and he is inclined to let the people get what they want hard and fast as long as it is limited in duration or whatever. The political price will be Huuuge.
Which they’ve proven they don’t care about any political fallout. They have everyone in their pockets and elections rigged so they don’t care. Theyvhsve no “political price” to pay.
he OBVIOUSLY hasn’t…he is as much a “constitutional scholar” as Mark Levin…Ozero WAS ineligible for the office of POTUS and CamelToe IS ineligible for VP or POTUS if they attempt to install her there
Many governors are saying they’re only waiting for the geriatric groper to make the mandate formal so they can sue. DeSantis upped the ante by making a conflicting state law. Hopefully that will fall under the original jurisdiction of SCOTUS so it doesn’t have to get through district and circuit courts.
Do you know on what grounds Dershowitz believes the feds can mandate the injection of an experimental drug in order to stay employed?
There is legal precedent with other vaccines back to FDR, I believe. It would depend on the weight SCOTUS gives to Emergency Usage approval, I suspect.
Only applied to states….
Even before FDR
Prior bad acts do not justify new bad acts.
In law, they certainly do. Precedent is everything.
Yes, I grant you that precedent is everything, however, so is fine-line distinguishing one case from another. I would suggest that a 1L can create a plausible distinction between this and the prior decision.
again a VACCINE is a different animal than what we have with Pfizer, J&J, and Moderna,,, this is a GENE-THERAPY and does NOT prevent contraction or transmission of the underlying disease
He is full of shit. Even someone as dumb as a Lawyer knows that this is unlawful. Come on man
Problem is that with all the politic$, not medicine, involved here, it only takes the swift stroke of a pen for the politicians to declare that the drug$ are now approved and authorized and safe for everyone. No exceptions. Science be damned, they will bypass all medical research on the road to making things official, and thus enFORCEable on everyone (except maybe themselves).
Dershowitz. He gave up any shred of credibility or influence in 1995.
A few thoughts. The “vaccine” is not a true vaccine, so that may certainly play into this battle. Also, there are plenty of documented adverse reactions to the jab, yet everyone involved with pushing them is given immunity from liability. If immunity was waived, this would end overnight. And last, with all the exemptions from the mandate given to preferred groups of people, it most certainly weakens the premise that this is anything but political.
Indeed, it will be interesting.
It is not a mandate because it does not apply to everyone residing or attempting to reside in the territory of the USA.
Therefore, I submit there is NO mandate at all. It either is mandated for all because of a clear and present public health emergency or it isn’t. A patchwork mandating a shot for some and not for others does not meet the definition of a mandate.
“Democrats do not even believe their own message.
It’s not really hypocrisy because they know the mask narrative is a fraud.
They know their mask narrative is a purposeful ruse.
Their actual behavior is a physical representation of the lie they know they are selling.”
People under 65 have a better chance of dying driving to work than from covid.
The mRNA jab is not a vaccine. It is a genetically-based treatment that is not FDA approved, except for experimental use, which requires informed consent.
Forcing it on individuals who do not want to participate in the experiment is abusive, illegal and, if pushed by a government under any threat, also a tyrannical imposition. Mr. Dershowitz is a lawyer, lacking in immunology, virology, pathology or clinical background.
Dershowitz is a pedo, right? He wanted the age of consent lowered.
Dershowitz is afraid of the virus. It was clear from his interview I saw today. Because of that, I don’t take his opinion s seriously as I otherwise would.
even under Alan’s logic, it would be FDA approved “vaccines”…these are neither vaccines under the traditional definition NOR are they officially FDA approved….THAT argument goes down in FLAMES
Just think the D’s are going to run loser, traitor, party changer Charlie “I love Barack” Crist against the best gov we’ve had.
Let’s see how that works out.
I’m worried. Elections aren’t real anymore.
For sure!!
It could work out just fne for the dems if mail in voting, drop boxes, and dominion voting machines are allowed.
That’s what we fear! We need voter reform to correct this issue. Why isn’t anyone Conservative pushing that?
Make your voice heard about it. Contact your governor, secretary of state, board of elections, state wide rep, etc.
DeSantis should have ALREADY conducted a full forensic audit in FL to show the depth of fraud in a state the GOP supposedly won…it would be a blueprint and impetus to other “red” states to get their elections in order
Or that shrill Soros clown b!tch attempting to run DACS into the ground…whatsername? Nikki Friedchicken?
Riverside County (CA) Sheriff Chad Bianco steps up again, huge!!
Won’t enforce vaccine mandate. They are a huge LE agency. They have a lot of the cities in Riverside County as the LE agency through contracts.
From the statement linked below:
“ I am certainly not anti-vaccine. I am anti-vaccine for me. That decision should be made in consultation
with your doctor after discussing the potential benefit and the potential negative side effects.
It is time our government and our politicians come to the realization that the only reason they exist is
because “we the people” formed our government to secure the blessings of individual liberty and freedom.”

Well this is all kinds of awesome. I wish OC would follow their lead. We’ll have Gov. Elder soon, good Lord willin’ and the creeks don’t rise, so there’s that.
I worked hand-in-hand with RSO for 20+ years with the County FD. There a lot of solid deputies in that agency, obviously it bred the likes of Sheriff Bianco. I’m very proud to have had my career in Riverside County, but glad I’m in AL now.
Elder wins with the legal vote. Elder loses with the fraudulent vote
Perhaps Fang, but let’s wait and see. All the folks who’ve been adamantly opposed to Californians evacuating to their Red states better be praying nonstop that Newscum is OUT and Elder is IN. If not, there will be a yuge mass exodus, like nothing ever seen before. It costs the same to be optimistic on this election eve, plus it’s a whole lot less stressful. ?
Is that a future headline?
I truly fear another fraud election in this recall.
Here’s the link to the podcast he referenced in the statement. It’s called the “RSO Roundup” if searching other podcast apps and the episode is from this last Thursday.

IF an employer gives an employee an ultimatum of “you either get the Covid-19 vaccine regimen or we’re going to have to let you go”
Has that employer not threatened the employee’s livelihood thus coercing said into accepting the vaccination? IF (hopefully not) said employee were to become one of the many injured or killed by the vaccine would the company be liable?
Maybe not. If they are investigating an accident and OSHA say that all safety rules were followed, the company will not be liable. They did everything exactly as OSHA said. It may be the same here. OSHA will have to issue a set of rules. If the rules are followed precisely, both the company and OSHA are protected. Only the employee will suffer.
they are COERCING employees to take an EXPERIMENTAL drug without INFORMED CONSENT….ignorance of the law is no excuse and they are violating international and national law since the US is a signatory
Deductive reasoning may lead as you say, but ignorance is not a legal defense. The employer’s lawyer would surely know that these vacs (not Corminaty 2026) are EUA still and “ just following orders” wasn’t good enough in Nuremberg.
We haven’t seen the rules yet but OSHA will almost certainly shuck any responsibilities for injury onto the employer.
make them fire you…there will be class actions all over the country if they try to implement this rule
One hopes so. I’d like to see any company mandating any medical treatment bankrupted.
Governor DeSantis, kicking ass and taking names.
Bravo Governor DeSantis. 🙂 Now how about these CS governors?
Asa Hutchinson – Arkansas
Kristi Noem – South Dakota
Brian Kemp – Georgia
Kevin Stitt – Oklahoma
Greg Abbott – Texas
Key Ivey – Alabama
Mark Gordon – Wyoming
Bill Lee – Tennessee
Henry McMaster – South Carolina
Pete Ricketts – Nebraska
Brad Little – Idaho
Kim Reynolds – Iowa
Mike Parson – Missouri
Doug Ducey – Arizona
Tate Reeves – Mississippi
Greg Gianforte – Montana
Unfortunately there is not a spine anywhere on that list.
Every single one is a follower. Not a leader in the bunch.
They dont wipe without a focus group poll.
The governor of Missouri is calling for a special for the legislature to write laws protecting citizens from forced vaccinations.
If only they were followers. Leadership has been there in Florida for a full year now. What are you all waiting for?
DeSantis is/can be the leader. All they have to do is follow, and they won’t even do that. It’s disgusting.
McMaster has been doing pretty well, actually. Not as sparkling as DeSantis, but far from the worst.
What a difference having balls to take on the D-MSM makes, Americas Governor if only the sheep could see.
That right there is MY Governor! Keep at ’em, Ron!!!

Who’s the underwriter…
Well, JoeBama states they will hit companies with a $14,000 per employee/incident fine. DeSantis says $5,000 to those companies that bow down to JoeBama. $5,000 vs $14,000?? He needs to fine more than the $14,000 to make it “worth their while”.
Sounds like a corporate tax to me, whichever way they go.
It is so good to see pushback. People have had enough. I just watched a video of protestors marching across the Brooklyn Bridge, chanting “FJB”.
I think that chant is here to stay. Think of all the inconvenient places it could break out. We definitely need more chants! Trolling is FUN!
This coming weekend the “FJB” chant will be heard at college football games across America.

Will this have any bearing if our company headquarters is located in Florida but we work in a different state??
Easy, just identify as a Floridian.
Or a refugee, postal worker, illegal or Congress critter.
?
Attack on the employed… Why no vaccine mandate for those collecting govt. checks?
Good for Gov DeSantis. Florida might be the only sane state left in the former US of A.
So they can still fire people ? You really want to put an end to this madness, any business guilty of discriminating against someone over any health related issue gets their business license immediately revoked. Problem solved
I do not believe the 22 states that are suing JoeBama and his regime are going to be firing anyone in reality.
This is going to the courts and the governors in the red states suing the installed regime are NOT enforcing anything coming from the plagiarist’s mouth or his handlers mouths.
They are starting a Distraction War to keep our eyes off the Target of an inept, dysfunctional, unconstitutional installed fraud as our president…have patience.
They will lose this Bigly.
People are still losing their jobs.
There’s no place for patience. People are losing their jobs, their children, their homes, and many are caving and taking a probably deadly inoculation because they are afraid of starving to death or being homeless.
Patience my rear.
While Governors fight the ‘good’ fight and go to the courts people will either be quitting, getting fired or submitting to the jab. If this wasn’t all Kabuki then these Governors would have said months ago these ‘vaccines’ don’t work and are dangerous… perhaps if they had we would not have had mandates. . All of them support the ‘vaccines’ but take a stand on them being mandated. Even now when saying ‘vaccines’ are ineffective and dangerous would undoubtedly help their cases they won’t say the words.
And wouldn’t it be wonderful if just one prominent Republican spoke another truth, that Covid is a scamdemic. Bridge too far but it’s the truth.
discrimination based on health is an ADA issue and enforceable under the act
To my way of thinking, Gov. DeSantis is right now doing what every US State Governor ought to be doing: asserting the fundamental [Constitutional …] principle of [extreme …] Federalism.
In other words – “we consist of United States.” And this means that the state level of government … yes, “all fifty of them, all different(!)” … matters more than the federal level, which at all times should be subordinate to each and every one of “the fifty.”
“Vivé la difference!”
Instead of a system of governance that is “in the hands of less than six hundred people who live in a repurposed [literal …] swamp,” we rely upon fifty(!) such systems, every one beautifully different.
Yeah. I’m quite sure that we can handle it … exactly as our Founders originally intended, even at a time when they really didn’t know what lay west of the Appalachian mountain chain.
Because their “Federalist” vision is far stronger, more resilient, and therefore more robust than anything which we have going right now.
It would be nice if civics was still being taught in school. People just don’t understand this and its a shame.
DeSantis is also shining a light on the hypocrisy of the mandate:
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/09/13/desantis-blasts-bidens-hypocrisy-exempting-congress-from-vaccine-mandate-can-someone-explain-the-science-to-me/
And check out this awesome video (about 3 min long) embedded in this piece of a firefighter and paramedic speaking about the mandate deadline approaching at the end of this month. Truth. It is powerful.
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/09/13/watch-fl-firefighter-slams-vaccine-mandate-why-is-our-freedom-to-choose-what-we-do-with-our-body-no-longer-a-human-right/
Guys, I’m thining the only way out is succession, I have heard many mention before, but we are here. I was trying to build for the “Dark Winter” and all it entails, however the only solution to an out of control Federal Government is before us. I just wish I didn’t let repairs slide so long to get out.
The greatest governor in America in the last 50 years.
Make it a $500,000 fine to be paid directly to EACH employee being discriminated against and terminated.
NOT legal to enforce a financial penalty as a money transfer to a private party… the government cannot just award civil penalties to even specific citzens
This man would fit right in with the patriots of 1776.
Tony all in for vaccine mandate for travel. House arrest all the way, folks!!!!!!!!!!!

We’re being distracted! Biden is trying to get rid of the filibuster.

We’re not being distracted. We’re being overwhelmed.
Kamala Harris calls for the unvaccinated to get vaccinated in order to protect those who are already vaccinated. It’s almost like a public service announcement not to get the vax!
https://www.theblaze.com/news/kamala-harris-tweet-calling-for-protecting-the-vaccinated-raises-eyebrows-isn-t-that-what-the-vaccine-is-supposed-to-do
except when she was in TX she stated government does not have the authority to make health decisions on an individual’s body
Yeah, I know. That was then. This is now. And tomorrow will be another day for the perpetually grinning idiot.
Jam this up their caboose, sideways! Go Gov. Desantis! May we see you in 2024 or 2028!
Sorry for the mis-spell, DeSantis!
I sleep better at night knowing that Ron DeSAntis is governor of Florida.
Horse pucky! Don’t piss down my leg and tell me it’s raining. The vast majority are employed by private business and the legislation that DeSantis signed, sb2006, is greatly flawed because it exempts private business employers, they are allowed to force employees to be vaccinated or be “voluntarily terminated.”
Floridians are forced to take the vaccine or lose their job every single day. Disney World has given it’s workers until Oct 22nd to get the rape shot or be fired.
It is the employer mandates that are doing the most harm to people and families and yet it is not even mentioned by the Governor. If a store won’t let me shop, that’s their loss, but if I lose my job then that’s my loss. Huge difference.
Gov DeSantis, who I greatly admire, needs to do like the state of Montana. Montana is the first and ONLY state to ban the requirement of a vaccine as a condition of employment as it is deemed “discrimination”and a violation of the state’s human rights laws.
Walk the walk Ron and sign legislation that has real teeth!
That’s interesting. Basically, someone may not get hired, or they may get fired based on their pre-existing medical condition, which is non of the employer’s business to begin with. That seems to set up quite the conundrum.
It’s big business who is actually enforcing the mandate and our elected leaders are fully aware of that.
Thank you. FL is no better than the other states because no GOP politician will touch their sacred corporate masters. We are screwed. Frankly, our only hope is a mass die off sooner rather than later as it might protect the under 12s.
This is a planned genocide and 50 to 60 percent of the American public happily got in line for the death jab and now want to force the rest of us.
The people that work at hotels, restaurants, theme parks, hospitals, realtors, insurance agents, gas stations and all other businesses are being forced to vaccinate or lose their job. The law DeSantis is touting ONLY protects government workers who are mostly unionized and have more protection than private business employees already. This attack on employees is an attack by big business. To pretend that DeSantis is fighting for the workers is disingenuous at best.
The reality is that Ron Desantis is doing what every single governor, regardless of party, should be doing, protecting their states from Federal overreach. Hopefully people are finally waking up to the fact that government is seriously broken.
The Federal government, yes, but this is proof that Federalism, established the founders, was the back stop before full on Tyranny.
He’s not doing squat. All the private sector employees in FL are being told to vaccinate or lose their jobs.
And yet FL still uses vote flipping machines?
What a mensch!
I’m in Texas, yet I think I need to move
This was not a press conference. It was the State of Florida Homecoming and family re-UNION. I knew Florida was a close knit state but gosh, they treat EVERYBODY like family! This is beyond southern hospitality. Love Thy Neighbor – He will pull you out of the rubble pile of your hurricane demolished house and she will stitch your wounds and set your broken bones. Their uncle will boss the crew that rebuilds your broken home while their son drives a truck that supplies grocery stores with the foods of life. Their daughter serves those foods in the restaurant down the street…
Don’t break up this family because of your (Buck Fiden) power trip!
Hey, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, watch every second of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis presentation and implement the same anti-mandate legislation (word-for-word) for your Ohio family BEFORE axe falls on them. Hello. I’m your neighbor.
I’m a Florida resident and RN facing the mandate. Until this applies to hospitals, it has no teeth.
Exactly! It’s a bunch of mostly empty hype.
Did you call the Attorney General or DeSantis? If people don’t call either of those 2 how are they to know who is being forced and who is not. People have to let them know. Each and every one of you guys. Don’t assume, let them know personally.
All the checks will bounce.
Where the hell are Rubio and Scott…???..
????
I’m personally hoping the Missouri state government enacts a similar policy.
about the legal aspect of mandates.
have not fully read the legal precedents. apparently there are some cases to review.
however..besides enforcement (thinking the 1992 “auto” weapon ban….for instance when I say enforcement..that ONLY LAW ABIDING CITIZENS PARTICIPATED IN!!!!!!)
there is going to be a severe pushback politically….and also legally.
the COST of such a mandate has to be on the mind of every flaming liberal in congress..and the uniparty dotards on the right too.
the reality is that there are quite a large number of left voting citizens who are not getting the jab..and will not get the jab.
the venn diagram is amazing….the ONE THING we all seem to have in common is a general gut feeling that this jab is not a very good idea. And for the washed (informed rational set), there is plenty of evidence it isn’t something that you want to be putting into your body. I mean, why has there been so little effort at all funding therapeutics that actually work and promoting them. But I digress.
so what other challenges will such mandates face?
God Bless America
Wow! And Wow double time!!
After reading two sentence globs of text, I knew this was an interesting informative post, but that is as far as I got,
Being a sipper and cogitator, the gluttony required for chug-a-lugging texts chunks of 10 or 20 lines is not possible,
So missed what ever was contained in your brilliant post.
Maybe you should check the guidelines for posting about text breaks to benefit communication, just saying.
Have a good day.
Best 50 minutes I spent today.
I call / email my utah mormon senators mike lee and magic pants mittens daily as a reminder that their YES vote to certify a blatantly fraudulent, stolen stolen created this mess. And their feckless statements to win votes that “vaccines are good” is grossly hypocritical given that both r PRO LIFE. Their silence abt the fact that the vaccines were tested, developed and produced with fetal cell ines from aborted babies is disgusting. God bless this governor’s courage…
It’s also an attack on individual rights, the constitution and hippa laws.
Ashley Moody is worthless. She has never uttered a single word in defense of Floridians serving in our Armed Forces from being subjected to the jab.
I despise her and her office.
This may be tough for some to take but I’ll say it out loud. I hope this is the place where the tape is played all the way to the closing credits, so folks can see just what is meant by overreach. That means that, at some point, there will have been sufficient instances of “No” issued that Leviathan is forced to do what all tyrannical regimes must ultimately do – pull their gun & show it to you. Is the regime in Mordor willing to send troops in over a recalcitrant, arrogant state that dares to defy their authority?
I pray it doesn’t happen but will not cry if America gets to be educated in their recliner as the football game gets pre-empted with all the drama their sound bar & sub-woofers can provide.
