And another federal court rules against another Biden vaccine mandate - this time for health-care workers
alexberenson.substack.com
“Plaintiffs are likely to succeed in establishing that the CMS vaccine mandate is arbitrary and capricious.”
Those are the words of federal Judge Matthew T. Schelp of the Eastern District of Missouri in a 32-page opinion devastating the Biden Adminstration’s effort to force health-care workers to be vaccinated.
Today’s ruling, in a lawsuit brought by Missouri and other states, issues a preliminary injunction against the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services mandate.
The CMS mandate now joins Biden’s broader OSHA mandate on the chopping block. For now, it applies only in the 10 states that brought the lawsuit, including Iowa, Missouri, and New Hampshire.

I am a nurse. Been back to work since last May. I am CV19 recovered. I STILL have the antibodies nearly a year later. I was told today since I am not vaxxed, I must eat in a separate room from the vaxxed employees. I was told that I cannot use the locker room bathrooms unless I keep my mask on. Total discrimination. Why should anyone I work with know my medical information? What a total embarrassment health care has become. The actual "experts" know NOTHING. Pathetic. There is no longer any critical thinking in medicine.
Just watched a sobering video of grieving relatives marching slowly through the streets of Parma, Italy.
They were marching to remember friends and family members who had been killed by the COVID vaccines. All of them holding placards displaying photos of their loved ones.
This needs to happen in every country around the world, now.
No one should be forced to take this farce. They need to throw the ball in their court and demand they show them there are no adverse effects, that people are not dying, that it does indeed stop the virus, etc., etc. Make them prove the vaccine is necessary! They can't!!
Guess who’s exempt from all requirements and mandates to get the COVID-19 “vaccine”? The following people are totally exempt: all US Senators and House Representatives plus all Congressional staff; 6,000 White House employees; all employees of Pfizer (2,500), Moderna (1,500), and Johnson & Johnson (120,000); 15,000 CDC workers; and 14,000 FDA employees.”
Keep the pedal down! Keep pressuring these petty tyrants. Do it on your local level too! I’m running for school board in my town and helping organize like minded people who want to live free and not be treated like cattle or lab rats.
The glass ceiling has been cracked. Thank you to the two courts for being the first, of what I pray will be many, shutdowns to the Frankenstein Administration. And of course a huge thank you to those brave men and women that stood their ground to protect this country from the lawless demands of this government. The first people through the door always get the bloodiest.
Remove mandates across the board.just recovered from covid wasnt getting vax before , now never getting it.pretty mild case, but thank you lord.hang in there ,we will get the country back
A family member in NY was fired after being a nurse for 30 years for refusing the experimental vaccine. She worked 50-60 hour weeks during the initial pandemic when many people were scared for their lives. She risked hers not knowing how serious the virus was. Now they terminated her. Sad time right now in America.
I feel great compassion and sorrow for healthcare workers who couldn't afford to fight this nor to go without paychecks and were vaccinated under duress. Ditto for private employees. "Hold the line" is a great slogan, but without a powerful union at your back and contingency plans (that anyone needs but most can't reasonably craft in any circumstances) for losing a job, it just means personal destruction in many cases. I thank God daily that I'm now long-retired and moved to a red /swing state before The Plague hit. Local gov't is Democratic and full of morons. State Republicans are also morons but in this moment in time, I'll take 'em...
People that were pressured by their company to get vaxed or get fired need to start suing soon. The justice system can be used to send the message “never again” to the cowardly and/or greedy corporations.
We all know this is the greatest fake pandemic ever when certain parts of government are required to get these monstrous mRNA injections and others, like the Post Office, do not need any injections. Show me the rock solid science that says covid and its fake variants favor attacking certain groups of workers over other groups. It is pure BS beyond anything we have ever encountered.
In March, a friend was really on the fence about getting shots. I told her that if she chose them she shouldn't second guess herself after the fact and just move on.
She chose shots, I think, largely because she needs to visit elderly parents in Canada, which has onerous and punitive entry standards for covid; being vaccinated eases everything.
Since then, however, she's gone all in as a vaccine fanatic, in a kind of "reverse second guessing." I've wondered if this is a way of coping with misgivings and consequent resentment of people who, at the time, faced no pressures and did not get shots.
Are people coping with cognitive dissonance of their own misgivings by ramping up pressure on friends and family and calling for punishment of those who have chosen not to be vaccinated?
I’m a nurse also in Ohio. Filed my exemption. If they accept it I will stay but I will walk if I am made to act or be treated differently. No segregation/ no testing. We will see
My prediction: anyone associated with this "mandate" will end up on the ash-heap of history. Perhaps that's why they put a senile grandpa in charge. Nobody else would have willingly gone along with this anti-science, nation-destroying (and health-destroying) fascism.
But at least PFE & MRNA shareholders did well. (Who are they, anyway?) No liability. Lots of new billionaires. Every cloud has its silver lining. Can you imagine if you had a monopoly on making hot-dogs, and the US government mandated that everyone eat hot-dogs? How cool would that be!
I’ve been at the bedside since 1994. I work all shifts and have worked an immense number of hours this past 6 months. We are short staffed and overworked and I’m not getting vaccinated. My last shift is Thursday. I resigned. I’m very open that I’m not getting mandated for anything I don’t want to do. I’ve seen so many more high risk pregnancy’s and negative outcomes than I ever have since the vaccine rolled around. How any pregnant woman can inject this into themselves when it hasn’t been studied is mind blowing. They won’t eat sushi or deli meat…but they’ll take this vaccine. I’m kind of wondering if I’m living in an alternate universe. I’ll be sad to take time off of work because it’s been the only escape since 3/2020. But I’m grateful I have a choice. In the meantime I appreciate the information Alex shares. I just wonder if the truth or facts will ever come out. I can promise you there is in fact something about this vaccine and the effects it has on B/P and placentas. There just seems to be wayyy too many things to be a coincidence.
I just went to get routine Bloodwork at our huge NGHS system here in North GA. I was fasting until my 2:30 appt. and running late. I ran up to the building and when I got to the full waiting room to sign in with the blood lab I saw a notice: closed due to staffing shortage. Out loud I must have said What!?!?. I know because all the folks in the room laughed. One said “that’s what we thought”. I walked back to the desk and said “I have a 2:30 FASTING appt for my blood work.” She got my point because she called my Dr. and they sent the nurse out to draw my blood. She also said “do you have a mask?” I looked at her with my hangry face and she quickly offered to get me one. When I got home I searched to see if there was a Vaccine mandate and of course, there was. They estimate 1/4 of there 10000 employees are not vaxed. 65% of their patients are Medicare/Medicaid insured. There hospital was down from 96 Covid patients admitted one month prior to 31 last week. The masks have not been required in the offices for at least 4 months. The local paper stated that they were opening up a committee to approve/disapprove Religious and Medical exceptions for staff which would follow CDC guidelines (phooey). So happy to hear that the CMs mandate will be struck down too.
We must continue to hammer. Idea administration that they will be forced to obey the law. This is not a monarchy but a constitutional republic. We the silent majority can no longer remain silent. As we are held accountable so must this administration.
Leading up to Thanksgiving I kept hearing how horrible Covid has gotten in Michigan, I was picturing people dying in the streets based on the news, the. Turned on the TV and saw 80,000 unmasked fans at the Michigan Ohio game. Can you say disconnect between media and reality?
Thank you nurses for standing strong. My daughter is a nurse and son PTA. This is a day to celebrate! Both submitted religious exemptions, both had covid. The fact they need to submit anything but a blood antibody test is unscientific and insane, but I guess that's why Alex wrote Pandemia :)
Happy to hear that things are going well down south. The more you guys push back, the better it is for everyone around the world. They want to tear down the light because, in Orwellian style, the cure for totaliatarianism is an alternative.
For my Canadian friends, it is an uphill battle. Make sure you understand the Oakes test so you are fighting the right battle:
I'm an RN and am very grateful I retired. Wishing all nurses and healthcare workers the very best of luck with your mandate exemptions and court cases.
The mandates are about digital ID's via the vaccines. There have been weekly protests against vaccine mandates for months in most of the EU countries like Italy, France, Germany, The Netherlands, The Czech Republic, Switzerland, Austria, Norway, Ireland, Belgium, Holland, Romania, Hungary, Greece, UK and Australia.
"The death by starvation of Etwariya Devi, a 67-year-old widow from the rural Indian state of Jharkhand, might have passed without notice had it not been part of a more widespread trend.
"Like 1.3 billion of her fellow Indians, Devi had been pushed to enroll in a biometric digital ID system called Aadhaar in order to access public services, including her monthly allotment of 25kg of rice. When her fingerprint failed to register with the shoddy system, Devi was denied her food ration. Throughout the course of the following three months in 2017, she was repeatedly refused food until she succumbed to hunger, alone in her home."
"With over one billion Indians in its database, Aadhaar is the largest biometric digital ID program ever constructed. Besides serving as a portal to government services, it tracks users’ movements between cities, their employment status, and purchasing records. It is a de facto social credit system that serves as the key entry point for accessing services in India.
"Having branded Aadhaar’s creator, fellow billionaire Nandan Nilekani, as a “hero,” initiatives backed by tech oligarch Bill Gates have long sought to bring the “Aadhaar approach to other countries. With the onset of the Covid-19 crisis, Gates and other mavens of the digital ID industry have an unprecedented opportunity to introduce their programs into the wealthy countries of the Global North."
"In conclusion, the Davos World Economic Forum has indeed been involved in the strategic management of the coronavirus pandemic, with a major emphasis on using the pandemic as a catalyst for digital transformation and the global introduction of digital identity systems."
"The WEF collaborates with the ID2020 alliance, which is funded by the Gates and Rockefeller foundations and runs a program to “provide digital ID with vaccines. In particular, ID2020 sees the vaccination of children as “an entry point for digital identity.” https://swprs.org/the-wef-and-the-pandemic/

Thank God for some sane judges issuing some very good rulings. And just in time for Christmas and Chanukah! A good Christmas present this year is 5000 iu D3. Get those D3 levels up to at least 50, with 70 being more reliable. Every elderly person/USA/ should be popping these like M&Ms. Elderly can have low abilities to get the sun to produce D3 for them. So can others of any age with sub-optimum health. D3 tests are very common. You can get a before serious D3 supplementation, then one three months later. Optimum is to take K2 with D3
Brilliant news. 10 states down. One fifth. What is the percentage needed again to turn the tide on public opinion? Where the sheep suddenly start running the other way?
The OSHA regulation for mandatory C-19 vaccines is now open to public comment until DEC 6. Our response as a nation will decide if it comes to a judicial review. Go now to the link below and voice your opinion before Dec. 6th. Please share link!
I don't understand how any court would allow any company to decide on the veracity of any religious exemption. Any company rejecting them would be violating the 1st Amendment. FULL STOP!
I think we need to be careful celebrating too early because the diaper-filler and his cohorts are obsessed with the fake vaccines. He will issue a new even broader order that is or will seem far less arbitrary and capricious.

Arbitrary and Capricious: the Anthony Fauci Booklet
Remove Mandates on federal employees next, please!!! And Military!!

I never call this injection a vaccine. To use that word is to play into their hands.
The glass ceiling has been cracked. Thank you to the two courts for being the first, of what I pray will be many, shutdowns to the Frankenstein Administration. And of course a huge thank you to those brave men and women that stood their ground to protect this country from the lawless demands of this government.

“I love the smell of napalm in the morning….”
Now do military.
Too bad that a lot of these people already took the poison.
A family member in NY was fired after being a nurse for 30 years for refusing the experimental vaccine. She worked 50-60 hour weeks during the initial pandemic when many people were scared for their lives. She risked hers not knowing how serious the virus was. Now they terminated her. Sad time right now in America.
I’d like to see health care workers who have been coerced into taking the jab to file a class action suit...
So nice to get a couple of small wins in only a couple weeks.
Cue the lawsuits for those who were already coerced into taking part in this experiment.
I feel great compassion and sorrow for healthcare workers who couldn't afford to fight this nor to go without paychecks and were vaccinated under duress. Ditto for private employees. "Hold the line" is a great slogan, but without a powerful union at your back and contingency plans (that anyone needs but most can't reasonably craft in any circumstances) for losing a job, it just means personal destruction in many cases. I thank God daily that I'm now long-retired and moved to a red /swing state before The Plague hit. Local gov't is Democratic and full of morons.

I'm an RN, licensed since 1985. I am unvaxxed, unmasked and unbowed.
Those of us in Europe would love to borrow some of your federal judges.
What about ALL those people that preemptively jabbed themselves with that poison and are injured or possibly compromised for future damage?
In March, a friend was really on the fence about getting shots. I told her that if she chose them she shouldn't second guess herself after the fact and just move on.

...have totally lost trust in healthcare... good riddance to “Biden Mandates” ...
How will the people who were forced to vaccinate be made whole?
All right, when is the Federal contractor mandate gonna be struck down?
My prediction: anyone associated with this "mandate" will end up on the ash-heap of history. Perhaps that's why they put a senile grandpa in charge. Nobody else would have willingly gone along with this anti-science, nation-destroying (and health-destroying) fascism.

This will end up in front of SCOTUS.
With feckless John Roberts in charge, don't be so sure it will be upheld.

This is a true work of art. Special thanks to PRESIDENT TRUMP for nominating federal district Judge Matthew T. Schelp!
This is surprising to me, that the US judicial system is working, parts of it at least!
In most other nations, few to no legal cases about matters related to covid19 have even been held, let alone won.
Resisting works. We must continue to resist against all forms of tyranny.
