The COVID-19 stupid continues, as the world’s #1 tennis player is denied entry to the United States over his vaccination status.
(Via Fox News) – Novak Djokovic will not participate in the BNP Paribas Open this month after the Biden administration denied his entry to the United States, due to him being unvaccinated against COVID-19.
Djokovic, 35, requested a vaccine waiver, which would have allowed him to enter the U.S. unvaccinated, but it was rejected by the Homeland Security Department.
The 22-time Grand Slam champion subsequently withdrew from the combined ATP-WTA event, which begins Wednesday at Indian Wells Tennis Garden in Indian Wells, California. (read more)
At this point in the COVID-19 era, the decision is more about politics and maintaining a false premise than any effort to mitigate a risk posed by a virus. Ridiculous doesn’t begin to adequately convey the level of frustration seeing this maintained nonsense.

Wide open borders, With an on going invasion by millions of un-vaxxed illegals.
Diseases once considered all but eradicated in the United States have re-emerged in the past several years. The resurgence of diseases like pertussis, tuberculosis, measles and mumps is a direct result of our open southern border.
He could therefore simply come on in, declare for asylum and play tennis to his heart’s desire.
Keep in mind, Ugly Cuss, that the people sneaking across the border are third world migrants and Chinese spies, Democrats’ core constituency. Novak Djokovic is an Eastern European who speaks 5 languages and is a man of character wbo stands his ground…the antithesis of a Democrat. It is political.
Don’t forget the blood sucking biting insects invasion that came with them..
I really like Trump’s Agenda 47 idea to simply round all of these people up, and deport them by the millions.
“Ridiculous doesn’t begin to adequately convey the level of frustration seeing this maintained nonsense.”
I couldnt have said it any better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Above the fold today on the WSJ front page – 58th anniversary, Selma –
but during those same 58 years, a Holocaust of black babies, denied their lives.
Kanye West attacked for mentioning the Holocaust of black babies but yes, we must celebrate at Selma the advance in civil rights.
Now this story of basketball players – Raptors – for daring to say only a woman can give birth – they got into hot water for saying that and have now issued their apologies. This is such malarkey. Will we let these crazy people run the asylum, who tell us that men can give birth? You guys making fantastic salaries as athletes, you could afford to have beautiful families with as many kids as you can be blessed to have, you know that is not only a lie but an affront to our Creator to agree that men can give birth.
It is like the Civil War was never fought, no one died in that, nobody ever left the plantation, nothing ever of note happened in Selma and the NIH is still conducting their syphillis study at Tuskegee.
I hope and pray this day that the Raptors players who apologized will take THAT back – and many, many others will join them in throwing down that gauntlet.
I agree with your well stated facts.
Sadly, it seem all the men have been neutered.
When a nation takes it’s eyes off God, He takes His eyes of them
This is what that looks like.
Eyes are on fiat currency…fools.
Amen!
Seriously. This will only stop when each of us, individually, refuses to take part in the charade. As long as a paycheck, a career, a specific university, whatever, will make us repeat a ridiculous lie — that hurts us, our fellow citizens, and our nation — this will go on.
The rotten part is those of us who have to put up with the damn enablers. Can’t help feeling sick that we have to share a country with them.
Any other top players drop out in support of Djkovic?
If not, I doubt any will.
Nadal is the biggest POS. He had an opportunity to stand by Djkovic when he was denied entry into the Australian open. I can’t stand these people now.
Professional athletes go along to get along. They want that big paycheck more than they want to remain free human beings.
Not what I heard, that came out of Novak’s mouth. He said he would not play if he had to take the jab, regardless what others do. Nadal won last year at AO because Nole did not play. He was rewarded with an injury at this years AO and took a loss. HMM Rafa you jealous creep, wonder why?? I did not feel bad at all, that he left. Lord forgive me, all I said way Ima Boga. There is a God. God Bless Novak.
Daughter has dedicated her life to Tennis. How destructive the fake pandemic has been. During the height of the Psychosis I would drive my daughter to tennis courts with bolt cutters to open the gates to get her the practice she needed. Occasionally a masked idiot would intervene and have to be dealt with. Never been tested or jabbed and of course, we are all healthy and strong but constantly worried we would have to quit all together if the various tennis centers began mandating vax. And as if totalitarian political lock downs were not enough, every tournament I wonder if this will be the one where the Transgender freak from tik tok will appear. I will not allow it. I just forwarded my teen daughter this post.
I hear you man. My daughters are both great competitive swimmers. I have the same fears you do. Is this the meet where some crazy parent enters their boy against my daughters? I pray the Lord gives me the strength and calm to handle that situation properly.
Mass, the only way to fight this is every time a mentally ill man shows up and is allowed to compete against women or girls, all ladies should refuse to do so. Walk en masse. Refuse to accept the madness.
If this happened in every sport…swimming, tennis, athletics of any sort, etc…these ladies would be celebrated for their bravery. Would it work? I honestly don’t know; but until it is tried, this insanity will continue.
And yes, I know there is a terrific cost to this. But the fight back must start somewhere. If it is tolerated at competitive levels it will continue.
The courts, who one would think had some sense, have capitulated.
Example: a Minnesota judge has ruled a man who says he is woman can compete in female weight lifting. The minute he shows up to do so, the rightful biological competitors need to walk.
I am infuriated that debauched madness has, like a virus, infected millions. Aided and abetted by this government and the courts.
But the lesson here is not just a sporting one. It is a life lesson.
You teach people how to treat you. What one tolerates, one gets more of.
And that’s just a fact. As you know only too well.
No one should be compelled to be complicit with someone’s psychological delusions.
I wish your daughter the best of what life has to offer in whatever she chooses to do.
Betsy, your solution is I believe the best solution. My only concern is are these students being threatened with suspension? Fear has been the main factor for all the lockdowns, masks,shots. The walking off is the beginning. It’s time for demonstrations. Shut downs and what ever else it may take. Every hill cannot be abandoned.
I would hope they are not being threatened, Patrick.
Because in my opinion they would be exercising “free speech”.
“We will not be forced to comply.”
In professional sports at least, women could do this. The same standard should exist for schools. If parents, again en masse, rose up to support their daughters in the face of Stasi -like enforcement, I suspect schools would ultimately back down…should any be so stupid to play that totalitarian game. The Nazis compelled participation in sports don’t forget.
As far as I know, intramural sports are not obligatory. Students must try out for them. I could be wrong. But my grands all had to compete for positions on their schools’ teams.
And remember this…its just not an ideological issue. It can be a safety one as well.
Would I want my daughter or granddaughter playing against a man, or lad even, whose capabilities are potentially physically damaging?? It has already happened in some places that girls have been injured by a mentally ill lad or man. Would I allow that?
Would I thump…
Absolutely. Maybe it’s easy for me to say, with no “skin in the game.” But I hope all of you who do can bear up under the weight, as I know each of us will have “our day” when we will have to give up something. But we each have to be willing to do so. Bless all of you doing the right thing.
I think we all have skin in the totalitarian game being prosecuted against us, vladdy.
I am under no illusions any of us will be exempt from persecution. We either get in the box cars or we turn and finally stand as one and say “No more!!!!”
I believe we have no understanding of what that is going to cost us.
First they came for women’s sports….and then for the rest of us. One group at a time.
A Slightly different situation.
However our older son was in a highly specialized position, and was in fact a trainer of new individuals to the unit.
He was forced out of his position because he refused the mandated shot.
He was angry..I reminded him to be patient that revenge was more satisfying than anger.
He “ landed on his feet” and is now in an even better position.
Several individuals at his place of employment have had severe reactions to the poison shot.
The mandates have since been suspended, yet not terminated.
At Carnoustie Golf Course Scotland. ( A British Open Course) the motto is “ Stay the Course”
Cheers! 🏴🏴🏴
Good afternoon, my friend.
Stay the course, indeed!
Somewhere I’ve kept an apt meme which says (in effect) we all suffer disappointments, but that just means something better lies ahead. Your lad is a walking example of this, and I am so pleased he stood his ground. Good for him!!
But look who his father is? Would I expect anything less??
No sir…I would not😎
(I seem to remember something about vengeance being in the Hands of Someone else…)
One final thing…
While I cannot reciprocate with the Scottish Flag, I can salute you and the land of your birth with this… Cheers and blessings always😉
Thank you! 🏴

The Biden regime is run by debauched people. They are chosen BECAUSE they are debauched. Brinson, Buttigieg, Biden himself. And I’m sure theres a slew of others who are debauched scumbags too.
When you have an FBI which doesn’t fire those people within it who are viewing porn while being paid by tax dollars (including their pensions forever), I’d say the whole of government’s guts are putrid and immoral.
Debauched and defiled and godless.
You’re absolutely right, Charlotte. Birds of a repugnant feather.
I agree Betsy!! I pray that some day these “freaks” with mental disorders will be relegated to where they belong. All athletes should refuse to participate as the results will be skewed.
When I was a child, we used to have to go to a fair or circus to see the “bearded lady” in a cage. Now TPTB and the other degenerates want this to be normal…IT IS NOT NORMAL. It IS a mental disorder and should be treated as such.
Women are being marginalized and attacked as “insensitive and intolerant”, yet the women in sports are the ones being attacked. All the blood, sweat and tears going into NCAA competition goes by the wayside. These people are SICK.
They hate women. I don’t think the penny has dropped for most that that is at the core of it. All those feminists…and they have no clue.
… pure meanness … there was time when this would have been settled within days in court under “cruel and unusual punishment” but there is not much “justice” left to be talked about in the country. This is all about “you’re on the wrong side and we’ll make you pay for it!”.
Just come through the wide open border, compliments of brandon & his consiglieres ……………………
Can’t make this stuff up.
I am reminded daily of what a nation, that has taken it’s eyes off God looks like.
WHEN IS FRAUDCHI GOING TO JAIL???
W H E N?
ANSWER JUST ONE QUESTION DOJ, FBI
I have the solution….all Novak must do is get to Mexico, hire a coyote and cross the border into California. Hey everybody’s doing it, its hip,its cool, meet the locals.Heres a backpack full of …well you dont need to know just carry it.Welcome to the U.S.A. your citizenship documents will be waiting for you.
Or cross the border in a state that hates Biden, like Texas….
That’s ok, he’ll have the last laugh when he’s alive and fertile in 5 years unlike most of the compliant players and bureaucrats and best of all sports reporters
Why is there a COVID vax mandate on legal visitors to the United States, but not on illegal immigrants who are caught and released into the United States? Because it’s a sham.
“Accuse your enemy of what……….
Homeland Security rejected an actual application? He should sue them.
Nothing against the State.
His sin, his crime is defying the State, and doing so in a highly visible manner.
Dissent weakens the magic of the collective.
We are dealing with neo-savages.
My apologies to Novak. No words for how much this peeves me.
I cried when I read the rejection, can’t imagine how he feels and felt. Novak is a strong believer in our Lord, this helps him get through this ugliness. He himself said, as a young kid they were running from one place to another in Serbia, when the devils USA and NATO were bombing the hell out of a little country, one that fears and stands with GOD!!! US is where the devil reigns, why else are they involving themselves in other countries, killing innocent people. Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord, I will repay. I believe that with all my heart and soul. Novak Bog te Blagoslovio. I am a Canadian Serb and this infuriates me. I am sure President Putin would not do this, and they call him names. Again, Orthodox Christians are hated by these Evil elitists and Christians do not worship them. Only one GOD!!!
What exactly is The Regime trying to stir up by these absurdly provocative challenges to law and the Constitution? There is always method in their madness …
Exactly.
I’m nearly 66 years old, and I fear I’ll end my life seeing people try to defeat fascism by quoting the what, the Constitution? After the 2020 election, you think we live in a debating society over the Constitution?
All leftists worldwide agree on one thing. America and its Constitution must go.
We must rid ourselves of Executive Branch idiotic agencies, posthaste!
Rid ourselves of the 4th branch; intelligence.
Why can’t he just identify as a vaccinated person?
Stuck on stupid is right. There are athletes in the USA who are not vaxed and they aren’t banned from their sport or other countries. This is just moron level a garbage.
I was starting to think that the entire vaccination thing was a total hoax .. but seeing as they just blocked The Djoker from even ENTERING the US, there must be SOMETHING to it. Why would they do such a thing????????* Gee, I better catch up on all three of my boosters RIGHT AWAY!
And I guess this still means that Serbia is the fount of human evil, too, right
*(For those who are hard of humor, this means I’m using sarcasm)
Gotta give a thumbs up for that phrase “hard of humor” alone…
Have I coined one, here?
It just popped into my head right as I was typing that sentence
Good one.
Hard of humor ???
That pretty much defines the libs !!!
It has always been about control, not health.
We now know, for a scientific fact, that the COVID shots DO NOT prevent either infection or transmission.
Having a vax mandate for entry was only logical IF the shot actually prevented or significantly reduced the probability of infection or transmission. Since is does not — there is no scientific reason for the vax mandate for entry into the USA.
None.
Bravo. (Tho’ I’d still think, even if it DID reduce probability, as long as it causes or could cause health probs, nobody should be mandated….actually, just nobody should be mandated for something that has no more risks than the flu. It’s so easy for us to forget that.)
I wonder what would happen if Larry Ellison decided to shut down his Indian Wells Tennis Garden as the US government is affecting his business model . . . if the fans and other players would not attend.
It doesn’t make the fans or tennis players very admirable that they are okay with this.
Hurrah for tennis great Djokovic withdrawing from the Indian Wells tourney.
Pres. Biden and his team of zealots discriminate based on their power trip.
We know the MRNA “vaccine”, an experimental clot shot has caused harm and even death. It does not prevent one from getting Covid or transmitting Covid as falsely claimed by the drug manufacturers and Dr. (I am science) Fauci. Fraud, I tell you.
The only way this nonsense stops is organize and prepare.
Biden is hateful and vengeful. He will get justice at the pearly gates!
I PRAY HE WILL GET JUSTICE BEFORE HE REACHES THE PEARLY GATES!!!
OR, before I do……..I’d sure like to see some kind of JUSTICE soon!!
In God’s own time, I suppose!!!
What a frickin travesty. I have no doubt he would have already collected at least one more grand slam championship had he not been screwed over by Australia and the U.S. Love this guy, he set aside cementing himself as the GOAT in tennis over this stupid vaccine issue.
I don’t blame Novak!! I took 1 and 2, got Covid landing me in the hospital. Took care of my son during his bout with Covid for 3 weeks without getting it again. Researched and decided I would not be boosted. “They” are still urging me to take more vax and I refuse.
Is covid still a thing?
Was it ever? (why does that name sound familiar? Ellis Wyatt…heh)
you took the words out of my mouth
I’ve read others on here that have it worse, particularly to those isolated from family, to them I’m sorry. I’m still under COVID rules at work and not allowed to engage my coworkers in person at any meetings. I’m told it’s to protect me from potential infection travelling and minimizing liability to the company. If I were to visit a patient in a clinical setting I can’t see them on the treatment floor, have to wear a mask at all times on-site, and have to have special permission to visit by the regional vice president.
I had a discussion about this with a coworker who has the complete opposite perspective. It was disheartening because I like and respect the person, but they had isolated unvaxed family, trusted “experts”, deified Fauci, spoke on behalf of a certain minority community, and would not recognize the hypocrisy of Democrat leaders that initially said they would not take the “Trump shot”. Nothing about their position seemed data driven, just “feelz” and propaganda. Even when I brought up our own governments historical record on experimenting on minorities, it didn’t break through the fallacies.
I won’t get into this person isolating people for voting for that racist Trump… Just sad and crazy. Someone had said large portions of this country has been watching two completely different movies. I didn’t mean to get sucked into this rabbit hole at the time, and I have to be on guard not to do it again. Too many risks and I’ll get targeted for wrong think, no matter how I treat people.
How could you “like and respect” such a person. This thing has been good because its allowed us all to know who we should shun going forward.
Now you know who to never trust or help for any reason.
When my brother was very sick and in the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL, he was allowed only two (2) visitors for the duration of the hospital stay. It had to be the SAME 2, for the duration. He chose to have me (his sister) and his daughter.
We did have to wear masks while in the hospital and the room, but NO ONE ever ask us if we were vaccinated. (neither was)
When I called and told my brother I wanted to come see him, I told him my vax status…..He said, “Come on, we all have to die sometimes”. I stayed Approx 4 months, and he did die, but it wasn’t from Covid. A lot of that time, I spent in his room in Mayo. We could go any time and stay as long as we wanted.
Head Start in NYS requires potential employees to be “Vaccinated “…
Doping authorities must look into this. Djokovic has a fully functioning heart, which gives him an unjust advantage over his jabbed opponents. As a compromise he could play with extra heavy shoes and/or a smaller racket.

FAUCI BELONGS IN JAIL!!!
https://rumble.com/v2byt7c-jailthatpos.html
Fauci should be prosecuted
He did several things:
1. Paid via NIH the Wuhan lab to do gain of function studies
2. colluded with Daszak from Ecohealth to do this—RICO charges/conspiracy
3. commissioned paper to disprove lab leak
4. bad advice re vaccines
5 pushed the vaccines
6.refuted IVM and HCQ as RX despite a 2005 paper on its efficacy for corona viruses WHICH HE AUTHORED
7. caused Drs to lose their jobs in so many countries because of no 6
Also Fauci was instrumental in the lockdowns.
The lockdowns exposed the BEASTS,
and, IT’S MARK !!!
Where were all the doctors that pledged the Hippocratic Oath, why not stand up to the few like Fauci et el. I have no respect for the doctors any more. None.
Can we get the May 11th 2023 End of Emergency Authorization codified into law? I don’t trust the Biden administration to stick to their public statements, especially with spectacles like this tennis player.
FJ Biden’s only procrastinating until WHO declares the next Great Reset “emergency,” with our feckless CONgress critters providing him cover by voting to allow WHO to dictate USA’s next emergency response.
Don’t be surprised if the demented one does not allow two of the Russian tennis players play, as the evil west has sanctions on Russia. Daniel Medvedev an excellent player just won in Dubai. I don’t know his vaccination status, but I would not blame him if he got around getting the jab without notifying them. Novak and he are good friends and practice together.
Biden admin is absolutely disgusting in this.
He is also a Serb. And Serbs’ support for Russians is well-known. I reckon this played a part in this decision.
Don’t forget the US Government has a history of targeting Serbs to still their land.
I am a Serb and yes we all support our brothers and sisters in Christ in Russia including Putin!
With all of the people making fake papers for everything, ie: Drivers license, Birth Certificates, etc, can’t someone make something showing a vaccination has been done? I failed to get anything showing my vaccination, so don’t know what it would be. Just sayin’
I have heard that quite a few in Canada got fake papers when all these restaurants would only allow people with papers. I believe the charge was between $100-$150. Hubby and I were very contents staying at home and having our meals.
He should walk across the southern border. No vax required.
People fly into the US every day with no vax. Biden has a burr up his but about something. FJB
As Canadians, we can not visit the USA by plane or car. I know 2 of my friends, just recently went to spend a day shopping and dinner, but were denied entry. It is a 50 minute drive to the border.
It’s not “stupid” at play.
It’s theater: The US government wants to maintain the plandemic falsehoods.
If the goals include destroying trust in authorities and institutions, they are succeeding.
(And those WOULD be goals of a corrupt government subverting and decimating their own citizens, serving as vassal to the CCP.)
A white, Christian man who dared to defy the govt masters. Unforgivable on three counts.
May those that do that to a person, Odjebu and die.
The tennis player should sue our government for damages affecting his ability to earn and win tournaments.
Shows the narrowness of purpose of tennis players. It’s the money. They should have refused to participate but takes a “It’s not me” attitude instead.
at this point it just a personal ideological attack….one that the radicals will never concede to resolving.
in a sense this tennis player resembles the crisis and dangers of the state which is clearly and will remain a threat to freedom and liberty.
I recently visited a Veterans Administration facility to visit some veterans and fellowship…Was informed I must wear a mask. Okay…no problem..I’ll wear the stupid mask…It’s not going to be a showstopper to prevent me from visiting veterans.
but I did ask: when is this mask requirement going to expire?
answer: when “they” tell us …
me: who is “they”…? is there something I can look at to understand where this is coming from?
answer: it’s just the policy of the VA.
It’s just another reminder that the mandates continue in many forms across America. And mostly non transparent about the basis and legal aspect. “someone…they” tell us what to do..and we do it.
It’s a very disturbing trend to observe..some unnamed anonymous authority these people follow…where there is no clear indication when those mandates are going to end. It’s nuts.
God Bless America
2016:
“Dear Jenny Greer, NIH/NIAID,
This is terrific! We are very happy to hear that our Gain of Function research funding pause has been lifted.
Cheers,

Justin Hart on Twitter
I read that Obama lifted it right after Pres. Trump was elected……hhhhhmmmmm…….why?
A reporter asked 2 Amish guys why they didn’t have much COVID in their community.
They answered “we don’t have TVs”
This country is stuck on Stupid!
Yup. That video sums it up perfectly!!
They’re now playing in the BNP Paribas Runner-up Open
Update: First Fauci Commissioned an Article Clearing the Wuhan Lab He Funded of Any Role
in Creating Covid-19. Then He Showed Off That Article to the Press…
and Pretended He Had Just Come Across It, and Had Nothing to Do With It –Ace
Australia did the same 2years ago. Then this last year relented and let him back in
These people are nuts
In retrospect, after the 2 weeks to “flatten the curve”, nothing about this whole Chinavirus/Bioweapon hoax has been about anything but politics and maintaining a false premise. The greatest Crime Against Humanity in history…
Republicans Demand Accountability Following Reports of Fauci Commissioning Paper to Discredit Lab Leak Theory

Stuck on stupid’: Major twist in new blow to Novak DjokovicNovak Djokovic has suffered a major blow in his battle to enter the United States in a development that has divided tennis.
According to reports, his request centres on a declaration he has contracted the virus on two previous occasions, filing for a medical exemption on that basis.
The only good news for Djokovic is that he will be free to play the 2023 US Open, beginning August 28.
The United States still doesn’t allow unvaccinated international travellers to enter the country, with the Transportation Security Administration recently indicating the policy would not change until at least mid-April.
The White House announced last month the policy may not be scrapped until May 11.
The decision from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to deny his request has divided opinions with outspoken commentators declaring the 35-year-old is no longer a public health risk.
Tennis commentators have also voiced their support for Djokovic.
American tennis great Mardy Fish responded to the news on Twitter, writing: “What a joke”.
US political comedian Bill Maher said on HBO’s ‘Real Tim with Bill Maher’: “Imminent danger? Of a man playing tennis? Of a man who has had it twice?
