This is what happens when you don’t have an opposition party. The GOP should be going to the mat for us on mandates and they simply are not.

Ditto.

This is a wicked, unConstitutional mandate being shoved down our throats by the dirtbags in DC and the Pentagon.

“All that being said and done, I was talking with folks in the afternoon and they are hearing that the exemption requests are basically useless because the Air Force, in particular, Air Force Reserve Command, is planning on issuing blanket denials for anyone who submits the requests, military or civilian. They are not even going to review them.”

The Air Force must still follow the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the holy grail legislation for leftists.

PART 1605 - GUIDELINES ON DISCRIMINATION BECAUSE OF RELIGION are clearly outlined in the act. This section is a “how-to” instruction manual to file a religious objection application, written by the US Congress as law.

Quite simply, the Air Force is violating the Civil Rights Act, IMO. An Air Force decree can NOT nullify a law passed by Congress.

But I’m no lawyer, so read it yourself and come to your own conclusion:

Good luck, FRiend.

Meanwhile there are those who just want to keep flying and love what they do just to be keft alone.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. In my application for the exemption, I referenced Title VII and I also told them that their forms were illegal to use and that any conclusions they draw from my answers were legally invalid, and I referenced three different legal firms; Liberty Counsel, First Liberty and First Liberty Legal. So we'll see what happens. I know everyone in the building will fight for me, but whatever happens, it's in God's Hands.

Thank you for your input.

The feckless GOP is too busy slapping themselves on the back for the election on Tuesday. They are so predictable. They and yes even Donald Trump are taking a victory lap.

The truth is the voters weren’t really endorsing the GOP they were making a resounding statement that the current gang in charge has gone too far.

I work for the Air Force Reserve Command, straight civilian, though I did buy back my military time. I have a total of almost 29 years combined military and civil service, but I can’t retire until the end of next year when I turn 62.

And believe me, if my initial application is denied, I will file an appeal and contact the legal firms I’ve been in contact with. I will also bring facts like this to their attention. I’m sure they will squirm in their seats, but I doubt it change anyone’s minds.

I wonder sir, if the issue and the process of putting people out is an attempt to thin the herd? You sound to be suggesting that.

If that is the case, I wonder if doing it this way will bypass the use of the Readjustment Bonus they used on those of us who were RIF’d in the early 70’s. It is a drop in the bucket now but in those days to those qualifying (years of service) the maximum was $15,000.00.

Sounds like the Administration is going to get rid of many career folks, on the cheap.

From what I read, yes. But, I’ve also seen advice to go ahead and let them fire you because you could get it reversed for wrongful dismissal. Only saying this because I wouldn’t depend on the unemployment.

So what happens when the religious exemption is for Wiccan or satanism?

And trust me, if I am fired I will indeed sue them for wrongful dismissal, me and many others. I’ll have to read up on unemployment benefits. New York was the only state I’ve seen that said they won’t give benefits to those who are fired because they won’t take the poison, but I could be wrong.

Of course they won’t deny that! Why would they?

It’s designed to be coercion at every step.

I work for a (deep blue) State agency. The state rolled out a vax or weekly test policy on a Tuesday mornings, said proof of vax or test would have to be submitted by 7 AM the following Monday or don’t show up to work. The statement said a list of approved testing facilities was anticipated no later than Thursday.

While all the sheep are busily scanning their vax cards, Thursday comes and goes and no list of approved testing facilities was provided. Then Friday comes and goes, still no list of approved testing facilities, but the deadline of Monday 7:00 AM looms.

All to ratchet up stress. How many people just got stressed by the whole thing and just got the shot? Probably a good number. Not myself.

Early Monday they designate the approved testing facilities.

THEN, early Tuesday they sent an email to everyone that had not submitted vax proof or a test result. The didn’t blind copy the recipients, they doxed everyone that was none compliant.

People, including myself, had some spirited comments replying to all listed.

Then HR (read leftist Karen’s) hiding behind the covidinfo email address said oopsie we didn’t mean to dox everyone.

I have no doubt that behind the scenes federal officials have told a lot of state officials that if they give out unemployment benefits that the feds will screw over the states financially with’errors’, ‘glitches’, and ‘legal battles’. The authoritarian nature of this regime is unambiguous. They would resort to mass blackmail in a heartbeat.

First things first.

Don’t assume those in leadership positions have the best interest of the nation or in defending the Constitution as guiding their decisions. They don’t.

The entire vaccination mandate is the most unethical position I’ve seen taken in the govt, other than perhaps abortion.

The same flag ranks promoting homosexuality, transgenderism, trans-sexual behavior, also now support the COVID mask and vaccination policies.

There is adequate doubt on any beneficial status of the “vaccine”, which has to have its definition changed in order to live up to the propaganda, as it doesn’t immunize, but actually increases risk of illness for those receiving it.

The same issues arise in all the services. They don’t intend on reviewing the exemptions. Quite truthfully, they aren’t even reviewing the DD3170/75s because the supervisors are told not to get within 6ft of the paperwork and to avoid CUI issues.

It is all a power play. but it isn’t obvious as to their intent, other to identify who might comply with their nefarious edicts and who won’t comply. Since it will take years to resolve illicit behavior, they simply will blunder forwards, believing they can overpower any checks and balances on their seizure of power.

Yes, it is guided by Satanists. Former masonic traditions may have been veiled in good works, but now have been more directly controlled by satanic agendas.

The only good news is even this is a testimony for Christ. While the Adversary and his minions seek any other solution than God’s Plan, they simply convict their own agendas to failure for all eternity future.

Don’t count on getting unemployment insurance. Their schme is to jerk the CAC card and access to your office, and not fire you, but allow your own lack of administrative action direct your removal. If the internet or networks go down and you aren’t filed as fully vaccinated, even with both doses, you risk being removed as well.

They have continued to promote the incompetent to more powerful positions, to the point that they don’t know how to abide legally in their plans and actions to balance their budgets. For some of them, this allows a RIF without consequence to their positions.

This is effectively reducing the strength of the US military by 30-50%.
