Biden Mandates All Federal Workers Must Be Vaccinated… Except Postal Workers
Earlier in the week Biden suggested that those who are yet to be vaccinated are “sowing enormous confusion.”
“We have a pandemic because of the unvaccinated, and they’re sowing enormous confusion,” Biden said.
“And there’s only one thing we know for sure, if those other 100 million people got vaccinated, we’d be in a very different world. So get vaccinated. If you haven’t, you’re not nearly as smart as I said you were.”
And now he has gone to ’11’ on the ‘your body, no choice’ amplifier, saying tonight that he’ll require federal workers to prove they’ve been vaccinated against Covid-19 or wear masks and submit to frequent coronavirus testing.
Additionally, the rules will cover millions of federal workers, including the military and on-site contractors.
“What I’m trying to do is keep people safe,” Biden said Thursday at the White House.
“If in fact you’re unvaccinated, you present a problem to yourself, to your family and to those with whom you work.”
Biden also asked his team to take steps to apply similar standards to all federal contractors and encourage private sector employers to follow the same approach.
NEW STEPS: @POTUS says federal workers must be vaccinated or face mandatory testing, masking, social distancing, etc.

Remember last year when he said he would not advocate mandatory vaccines?
I’m old enough to remember when @potus told us he wouldn’t make masks or vaccines mandatory.
Well, gaslighting and sociopathic speak… I’ll just force the federal government and private sector to do it for me.#pos #Resist #LiberalismIsTheRealPandemic https://t.co/McHgtwNdQ5 pic.twitter.com/hbd8xQweev

There’s just one thing… the federal worker mandate does not apply to postal workers?
Confirmed @USPS 570,000 employees are not covered by @POTUS directive on COVID-19 vaccines/testing for federal employees but being encouraged to follow suit

What do postal workers know about the science that Biden doesn’t? We don’t know, but dare we mention it could be related to the 220,000-member strong union’s leaders waiting to be negotiated with.
As The Epoch Times’ Isabel van Brugen detailed earlier,
The American Postal Workers Union (APWU) has said that it opposes mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations, amid reports that the White House is considering so-called vaccine passports as a condition of employment for federal employees.
The union, which represents over 220,000 postal workers, released a statement late Wednesday saying that while it will encourage postal workers to get vaccinated against COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, it is “not the role of the federal government to mandate vaccinations for the employees we represent.”
“Issues related to vaccinations and testing for COVID-19 in the workplace must be negotiated with the APWU. At this time the APWU opposes the mandating of COVID-19 vaccinations in relation to U.S. postal workers,” the statement said.
The APWU released its statement a day after President Joe Biden said that the White House is considering mandating the COVID-19 vaccine for all federal workers.
“That’s under consideration right now,” the president said Tuesday when pressed on the issue on a trip to McLean, Virginia.
Critics of the measure argue that the three COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the United States have not yet received full approval from the Food and Drug Administration pending the safety and efficacy results of the ongoing phase three trials.
Vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson are currently being administered in the United States under emergency use authorization (EUA), meaning that vaccine manufacturers aren’t held liable for any injury, including death, that their COVID-19 vaccine may cause.
And finally, in case you wondered where this goes next? Lockdowns are not off the table…

2021.. just like 2020, without the deaths…
But, wear your mask, because “science.”
But what if I’m a fire watcher in a tower...or a marine biologist conducting a census of Alaskan tide pools...do trail maintenance in the Grand Canyon?
Why not postal workers? They have a huge potential for being exposed to infections by getting breathed or coughed on, and handling mail which may have been freshly coughed or sneezed on.
Oh, so you think the every day postal worker demanded that?
Did you ever work for someone?
Because Joe used to drive a truck for the post office. /s
Rewarding them for handling fake ballots in key states.
Postal workers who deliver mail to many different places and are a potential super spreader by virtue of being in contact with so many other people and places.
If potential super spreaders get vaccinated, they still are potential super spreaders.
They are afraid of upsetting postal workers...lest they go postal.
That’s true, but it did not escape my attention that he is exempting the group most likely to spread it. It’s almost like he WANTS them to spread it more.
Except Postal Workers, the one Federal employee I might come in contact with.
President Trump “followed” the science when he had our two naval hospitals on each coast.
They were never used. The “science” of the marxists is total control of your life.
John Kasich's dad used to deliver mail too.
“The son of a mailman”
I remember that song.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kristallnacht
Date 9–10 November 1938
Target Jews
Attack type Pogrom, looting, arson, mass arrests
Just this past week I noticed that this date was on the eve of Kate's Smith's introduction of a "new song", God Bless America (Nov 10, 1938):
"As the storm clouds gather, far across the sea
let us pledge allegiance to a land that's free..."
The reason I noticed was that I had previously but recently compared the song to broken glass at a Jewish wedding -- that its ending on a *very high note* was the proverbial voice that could break glass. I hadn't noticed the dates at that time.
The name Kristallnacht ("Crystal Night") comes from the shards of broken glass that littered the streets after the windows of Jewish-owned stores, buildings and synagogues were smashed.
I've been seeing posts where people are lamenting that masks are becoming litter litter everywhere.
That was a rather insightful Post.
Democrats need to keep those votes.
Why NOT Postal Workers???? Hmmm????
Afraid they will go “Postal”???
FVK this POS senile f-tard!
Many, many so-called POCs work for the U.S. Postal Service. A very large percentage of those are black. Biden knows that black people in this country have not forgotten, and will never forget, Tuskegee. He can’t afford the huge and uncomfortably racially-tinged pushback he would have gotten from the postal union, were he to have ignored the unmistakable shot-across-the-bow he got from that union last night and foolishly included the Post Office in the ambit of the vexxine mandate he issued today. Hence the craven carveout.
Between those exposed and naturally recovered and the vaccinated I surmise nearly every single person in this country has some sort of immunity. And those who don’t the weak delta version will take care of the rest.
The pandemic exists because Anthony Fauci sponsored a gain-of-function experiment in the Wuhan laboratory.
It has been exacerbated by the FDA’s war on natural supplements.
It is being used by governments, businesses, and the obsequious sycophants of the media to impose fascism.
