The only people still pretending this wasn’t about power and politics are the same people you saw driving alone with a mask on.

I sincerely hope they're dead everywhere. Just yesterday in speaking with a friend, I realized she still has ZERO clue regarding what the vaccine passport was all about. For some people, NOTHING ever makes it through their Democrat defense system.

It's sad that so many braindead, idiots fell for this scam and now their kids will have to deal with the long term effects of the garbage vaccine and slave masks wearing. I used to not care if a person wore a mask but I realized that these clowns are the face of compliance. Whenever I see a kid wearing a mask, especially outdoors, I want to superman punch their parents.

My idiot son in CA jabbed my grandkids despite knowing the risks. “It’s just easier”he said. Now I see that only 28% of my grandson’s age/race range and only 56% of my granddaughter’s are jabbed. So he can’t blame social pressure.

Alex, could I recommend looking into employer mandates?

This perplexes me because as the legislative efforts melt away companies are in various stages of ignoring it or enforcing their own mandate. If pressure can be applied to corporations I think this thing really goes away. Board rooms are much more insulated from public opinion than the lovely lunch rooms at the Capitol (Congressmen and Women have some great lunch digs, check it out).

Sadly vaccine mandates still exist in some private schools in DC. Heard at Easter Dinner about an Episcopal school is refusing to reenroll any student ages 5-12 who has not has the COVID vaccination, regardless of whether said student has had COVID and thus gained natural immunity. The sad thing is that the headmaster of said school thinks this policy follows the science and is contemptuous of any parent who questions it.

Not before 110,000 kids left the CA public school system though! And only after everyone that could moved out. We were heading out of state if it passed and so were 100% of the other unvaccinated students at this point. Or home school. No one was waiting for the gun to show up to stick their kids. Once Berkeley Unified started universal testing in January they realized 80% of Covid + kids were fully vaccinated. This dumbass carpenter was the one that had to FOIA the info and the local online paper still refuses to publish it. So, in light of info they did not want, they stopped universal testing.

Berkeley Unified still has an employee mandate that hits 4/29. Jab or get fired. It will impact ~ 100 teachers and staff primarily people of color. It’s completely insane. EDI here in the capital of woke madness stands for Exclusion, Discrimination and Insanity. And not a single leftist dipshit can see the hypocrisy presently rampant in this community. It’s like living in an insane asylum.

I would like to see all of California's Covid related pending bills removed from consideration before we should feel a real sense of victory, but sparing the children is excellent news.

"Forcing four out of five black kids to stop going to elementary school would be a particularly perverse woke policy move" I have had this exact conversation so many times. In fact black kids in woke havens like Oakland have already had their futures disproportionately destroyed. As always, the ability of urban progressive whites to ignore inconvenient facts like this impressive.

I think you need to dig deeper to see what a gem Pan is. He effectively removed all medical exemption for vaccines for children by threatening doctors’ loss of license couple years ago. Truly a despicable human being.

“Dick” Pan is aptly named.

Alex, soon to be former CA resident here. I do not share your optimism that child “vaccination” mandates are as dead as the GOP in the tarnished once Golden State. They’ll be back just as soon as the next covid strain reign of terror (or hemorrhagic fever) begins.

You just don’t seem to comprehend the big pic.

What's going on with Asian families? They are 2 to 3 times more likely to vaccinate their kids.

As I remember, the Newsom children aren't vaccinated.
