US to require vaccines for all border crossers in January [not illegals]

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden will require essential, nonresident travelers crossing U.S. land borders, such as truck drivers, government and emergency response officials, to be fully vaccinated beginning on Jan. 22, the administration planned to announce Tuesday.

A senior administration official said the requirement, which the White House previewed in October, brings the rules for essential travelers in line with those that took effect earlier this month for leisure travelers, when the U.S. reopened its borders to fully vaccinated individuals.

Essential travelers entering by ferry will also be required to be fully vaccinated by the same date, the official said. The official spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity to preview the announcement.

The rules pertain to non-U.S. nationals. American citizens and permanent residents may still enter the U.S. regardless of their vaccination status, but face additional testing hurdles because officials believe they more easily contract and spread COVID-19 and in order to encourage them to get a shot.

About 47 million adults in the U.S. remain unvaccinated, according to figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Essentially requiring Canadian and Mexican drivers to be vaccinated.

Are they deliberately trying to fuel the far right claims that the purpose of allowing illegal immigration is a deliberate attempt to replace us with them? I mean, some of the dangers and adverse affects of the vaccines are starting to surface and it looks extremely suspect.

If you think the "supply chain" is stopped up now, just wait and see when this goes into place.....

Now that we know the vaccines do not perform the function of a vaccine this makes no common sense. Therefore there must be an ulterior motive. What exactly it is we don’t know for sure.

Cloward Piven. Not only as it applies to economic spheres of the nation, but also to the military and national defense.

"If you think the "supply chain" is stopped up now, just wait and see when this goes into place..... "

I live in an apartment, and have an apartment-sized fridge with a top freezer that's always full. I've always had to buy a frozen turkey or turkey breast the Sunday or Monday before so it could thaw in my fridge beforehand. Yesterday I went to Walmart, and they had no turkey breasts at all, and no frozen whole turkeys. The only thing they had were fresh, whole turkeys by Shady Brook Farms. I ended up buying a 14 pound fresh turkey for $25, so I wouldn't have to run to any other stores to see what they had. Can't imagine what it will be like next month when I have to buy another one just before Christmas.

Buck Fiden's handlers are doing this slow but sure. Right now it's the country's land borders, ie: Canada and Mexico. Eventually it will include state borders as well.

- Catch & release, demoralize cops making many leave
- Require cops to be vaxxed making them leave
- Require the military to be vaxxed making them leave
- Open our borders allow an invasion
- Require our border patrol to be vaxxed making them leave
- Destroy our supply chain
- Explode our debt
- Target conservatives as domestic enemies
- ...

I think we know what their agenda is.

When will this stupidity end? This kind of thinking is just not rational. It makes me, more than ever, want to find an island somewhere I can move to and get away from this ever increasing demoratic hell hole.

The PTB are trying to stop the Deliverer, who is an unknown identity hence the global jabnet.

The dark side can't figure it out just on the general principle of its being on the wrong side.

I cross the border with Canada almost daily transporting propane.

It’s winter.

Essential.

Canada requires us to get a border pass on their app prior to entry - we’ve been exempt from the start of the plandemic.

As I said on the other thread, the CBP officers I know said they aren’t the vax police, and won’t be enforcing this crap. They were forced into the vax, and didn’t appreciate it.
