All they have to do is take the fake saline jab like Fauci and Gates did.

It’s so safe and so awesome that they have to make themselves exempt from it. 🤔🤔

What’s this, Biden can order federal employees, exempts USPS, supposedly can’t order legislative and judicial federal employees but can order private businesses and private businesses/persons that contract with federal government?
This is total cherry picking.

it is due to separation of powers. The executive has no direct control over the operations of the legislative and judiciary. It is also due to hypocrisy that those elected and appointed to administer the government put themselves above the laws and rules they impose on everyone else.

He has no power over the judicary and the congress. Who gave him this kind of power over the people?

We were told the 'vaccines' would keep us from catching the covid. Then we were told that if we catch the covid bu have been vaccinated the symptoms would be less virulent than in the unvaccinated. Then we were told that the unvaccinated must get vaccinated to protect the vaccinated from being infected and dying of the covid. Now we are being commanded to be vacccinated or else ... this has a nasty odor of a great lie aimed at control not health. The father of lies is out in full force me thinks!... But I am wondering, how can people be vaccinated with a genetic mechanism that is nto a vaccine? I mean a real vaccine brings immunity to a virus for the vast majority of those vaccinated (with poolio it is 99.9995 % immune to polio virus).

That's right, peanut gallery, We The People are being lied to on a massive scale so evil it can have only one source, ther father of lies.... Which means the demon rat party is serving the father of lies, with the help of republicants who are as dead spiritually as a fence post behind my house.

If vaccinated employees need to be protected from unvaccinated employees, those same vaccinated employees would also need to be protected from unvaccinated customers, by statute, since the OSHA regulation would not be legally valid if the OSHA statute did not apply.

The best (and likely the only legally allowable) means would be requiring would-be customers to prove they are fully vaccinated. Such a vaccine passport system would crash major parts of the economy, such as retail stores & restaurants since unvaccinated potential customers would not be allowed to endanger workers by entering the premises.

I believe the OSHA statute is not limited to 100+ employee organizations. The employees of much smaller organizations would be inherently required to be protected by the OSHA statute.

There is no good reason why a 99-person company should be able to dodge a health & safety regulation a 100-person company can’t.

Once Joe pulls the OSHA regulatory pin, his regulatory grenade will explode throughout most of the US economy.

State sales tax revenue might decline by 20 to 35 percent, and stay down for months.

There are all kinds of exemptions for the ‘elite’ and those they know will support them.

“Two doses of inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) are 90% effective or more against polio; three doses are 99% to 100% effective.”

“Who gave him this kind of power over the people?”

Congress gave the executive a huge statutory toolbox over the past 88 years.

The executive can dig into that toolbox to fashion almost any type of regulatory hammer desired.

Regulations are allowed by the Supreme Court because Congress is too lazy and dysfunctional to do a proper job of crafting fully specified laws.

If, IF conservatives ever gain back the government, first order of business should be that the lawmakers are subject to every law written.

it is due to separation of powers.

Never mind separation of powers. He has no power to do this to anybody.

There is no enumerated power to even have a Labor Department.

Progressivism is vile from the roots up.
