President Biden lashed out at Fox News reporter Peter Doocy for pointing out that his Administration’s new mask guidelines contradict his assertion from two months ago that “if you are fully vaccinated, you no longer need to wear a mask.”
“At the time that was the truth,” Biden insisted. “But when conditions change, the truth also changes. The experts’ view was that by posing the choice of either getting the shot and be free to live normally or refusing to get the shot and have to abide by other restrictions that vaccine hesitancy would subside. That didn’t happen. False reports that some vaccinated folks were experiencing deadly reactions to the shots and others were still catching COVID despite being fully vaccinated slowed the march toward complete compliance.”
“Given the decline in COVID fatalities and the doubts about the effectiveness of the vaccines we needed a new strategy if we’re going to reach the 100% vaccination level,” the President explained. “By requiring the vaccinated to submit to the same restrictions as the unvaccinated we are hoping to increase the social pressure on the hesitators. This is the new truth for now. If this doesn’t work, we can always shift to the irresistible truth of a specific order that everyone must be vaccinated if they wish to venture outside their homes.”
The first salvo in the effort to compel everyone to submit is the President’s decree that all federal employees except postal workers must get vaccinated or undergo weekly COVID tests in order to keep their jobs. “The beauty of this plan is that the ‘tests’ present us with the opportunity to covertly try out a non-injected version of the vaccine,” Biden said. “One way or another we are determined that every American be vaccinated.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) hailed the President’s determination to get everyone vaccinated, calling it “courageous. When people won’t do the right thing of their own free will it is the obligation of government to make them do it. I hope his stellar demonstration of grit will inspire corporations to require employees to take the shot if they want to keep their jobs.”
In related news, White House deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced that White House coronavirus briefings will be discontinued. NBC reporter Kelly O’Donnell wondered why. Jean-Pierre explained that “events are moving so fast that the answers we give today could be out-dated by tomorrow. When there is a need for updates they will be provided by the President.”
O’Donnell objected, saying “he’s not a scientist.” “Maybe not, but he is the person voters elected to determine what the people need to know,” the Deputy Press Secretary replied. “In our democracy his mandate is far broader than that of any scientist. It is more efficient to let him decide than to allow reporters to query the lesser persons who serve him.”

That's the new go-to political phrase for trying to evade accountability.
Okay, you got me as the “semi-news/semi-satirical” part.
I thought that meant it was actual news, but they were making fun of it. This is more of a Babylon Bee article, right?

So, they’re going to Tuskagee the US people at large - giving us something we didn’t ask for, there is no cure for, and there are wildly different reactions to so that “every American is vaccinated”. How about just making it “Every American THAT WANTS TO is vaccinated”? Why the push for 100%? This is more and more looking like the mark of the beast to me.
Maybe Kamala can help.
It is somewhat like the Babylon Bee.
It is also a prediction of what is coming next from our increasingly tyrannical government.
When people won’t willingly take “free” vaccines, sterner steps are contemplated. The “thrill” of governing is having the power to force others to do as you wish.
Brutal Stalinist style coercion is only a way station in route to direct mind-control via implants—kind of like the “Borg” in the “Star Trek” TV series.
kinda strange that postal workers are exempt from the vaccine mandate considering some of them deal with the public on a daily basis...

More like the mark of the beast to me than anything else. You can’t eat here unless vaccinated and masked.
You can’t shop here unless vaccinated and masked.
You can’t go to the concert/pub/football game/whatever, unless you’re vaccinated and masked.
Postal workers are exempt because their union objected to being coerced into taking an experimental drug.
understandable...
i refuse to be an experimental lab rat as well...
i was just pointing out the hypocrisy in biden’s federal government vaccine mandate...
Hypocrisy, yes.
It also shows that determined opposition can gain exemptions for some of those powerful enough to pose a political threat to the government.
it also shows his leniency on government workers versus the private sector...
people are divided and too busy arguing about the kung flu and the fauxcine to pull together to put up any resistance...
