Washington Nationals Fire Two Coaches Who Refused to Get Vaxxed

NEWSMAX: Two Washington Nationals staff members were fired by the professional baseball team Wednesday for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine, according to Breitbart.com.

The two former staff members, Larry Pardo and Brad Holman, have threatened to take their case to the federal government because the pair objected to the vaccine for religious reasons and are threatening a discrimination complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

A press release from Pardo and Holman and provided to Outkick.com stated: ”The Washington Nationals terminated the employment of Larry Pardo and Brad Holman effective September 15th 2021 because the two coaches refused to compromise their sincerely held religious beliefs. Larry and Brad are devoutly religious and refused to take the Covid vaccines as they are developed from and/or tested with aborted fetal cells.”

The release stated that the men followed the Nationals procedure and provided written explanations for not taking the vaccine for religious reasons. The Nationals apparently acknowledged receipt of the explanations, but fired the pair anyway.

This is the beginning.

I 100% believe these two will either be reinstated or given a huge payout or both.

The right to our religious freedom in addition to our own bodily autonomy is at stake.

My sister who works for a large hospital in Los Angeles. Gave her religious exemption on Sept 1st. Then she was recently interviewed by HR. The decision will be given next week. She is on pins and needles as she has been there in IT for 25 years. Excellent employee, but more excellent in her beliefs defending the unborn.

Stay strong, don’t capitulate to the illegal mandates. HOLD THE LINE!

Does HR interview those claiming:

To be black?
To be LBQWERTY?
To have a disability?
To be female?

“Then she was recently interviewed by HR.”

Can’t have people around who are less likely to catch or spread the virus than the vaccinated.

Everybody must get sick.

Good labor/employment law attorneys will have any corporation hiding under the table and begging for their mamas—and settling to get the lawyer out of their face.

Hire a junkyard dog lawyer—mean and nasty and won’t quit.

That is a solid Plan B.

Congressional staff
Judicial branch
White House staff
CDC employees
FDA employees
NIAID employees
Pfizer employees

Illegal aliens

WHY?

Fired coaches: “Here we were, on our knees before the big color canvas portrait of George Floyd, singing the Black National Anthem, and they hand us the pink slips. How much rear end do have to kiss around this organization”

The NFL, NBA, Noosecar, and MLB don’t care about the well-being of fans.

Their primary focus is the promote a WOKE agenda. If fans STILL support them, then they are getting exactly what they collectively deserve.

Are these the guys that are always playing the Harlem Globetrotters?

You’d think after all those games, they’d be wearing suspenders, but, nope. They get their shorts pulled down again.

These are crimes that merit at least a decade in prison.

What I find maybe the most offensive of all is the NBA. There all coaches and staff must be vaxxed, but not the players.

The only group that is more irrationally afraid, more irretrievably ignorant over the Fauci Flu than the bullying little b*tches who make up school boards and teacher’s unions dedicated to abusing healthy American children through forced masking, are most of those involved in professional sports — particularly “mens” sports. How ironically pathetic is that?!

The players are harder to replace.
