Biden's so-called employer vaccine mandate is a myth, political theater to fool the masses and force companies to bend to his will

Last month, Joe Biden took to the podium at the White House and did something no president has ever done: He ordered private businesses over a certain size to require their employees to make a health decision they may disagree with -- get a COVID-19 vaccine. "As your President, I’m announcing tonight a new plan to require more Americans to be vaccinated, to combat those blocking public health," he said during a Sept. 9 speech. "I’m announcing that the Department of Labor is developing an emergency rule to require all employers with 100 or more employees, that together employ over 80 million workers, to ensure their workforces are fully vaccinated or show a negative test at least once a week," he continued, adding: The bottom line: We’re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers. We’re going to reduce the spread of COVID-19 by increasing the share of the workforce that is vaccinated in businesses all across America. My plan will extend the vaccination requirements that I previously issued in the healthcare field. Already, I’ve announced, we’ll be requiring vaccinations that all nursing home workers who treat patients on Medicare and Medicaid, because I have that federal authority. 'Because I have that federal authority.' Several constitutional experts doubted that, and said so at the time. "Two dozen Republican state attorneys general have signed onto a letter challenging Biden’s mandate, which amounts to forced medical rape. Those states include Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming," Vaccines.news reported. “Your plan is disastrous and counterproductive,” the letter said. “From a policy perspective, this edict is unlikely to win hearts and minds – it will simply drive further skepticism.” “And at least some Americans will simply leave the job market instead of complying,” the letter goes on. “This will further strain an already-too-tight labor market, burdening companies and (therefore) threatening the jobs of even those who have received a vaccine.” But wait a minute. Here we are more than a month removed from Biden's speech and the reaction to it, and there doesn't appear to actually be a 'vaccine mandate rule' in the works, according to The Federalist -- which means Biden's handlers duped the country into believing one was coming so companies fearful of litigation and fines would adopt the mandate on their own. "It’s all a mirage. Biden’s so-called vaccine mandate doesn’t exist — at least, not yet. So far, all we have is his press conference and other such made-for-media huff-puffing. No such rule even claiming to be legally binding has been issued yet," The Federalist's Joy Pullman wrote last week, nearly a month to the day after Biden's proclamation. She went on to say that she has confirmed no court cases have been filed yet opposing the mandate, which may have been "part of the plan" all along. “There is nothing there yet that gives employers any mandate,” Stephanie McFarland, a spokeswoman for the Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration, told Pullman last week. “The president made an announcement on this asking OSHA to do it, but we’ve not yet seen anything come from it yet." Turns out that stating an order was coming without having actually issued an order has had the same effect: Companies are complying, as they wanted to do anyway, and they are using the fake order as cover. “Everybody loves this cover,” Minneapolis employment lawyer Kate Bischoff told Bloomberg Law last month. “Many were already looking down the road at doing this, but the fact that they get to blame Biden is like manna from heaven.” In all, Pullman summarizes this constitutional coup: What Democrats are doing as Republicans stand down yet again is a moral and constitutional abomination. Not even the fig-leaf pose of a pen signing balderdash-filled documents is needed for today’s Democrats. Whatever they say, you do. We don't really have anything close to a functional government anymore. Sources include: WhiteHouse.gov Vaccines.news TheFederalist.com
