Domestic Travel Ban for Unvaccinated 'Not Off the Table' Says Jen Psaki
PJ Media ^ | 12/01/2021 | Matt Margolis

Even though Biden suspended his vaccine mandate for federal workers to save himself a few approval points, he’s nevertheless looking for alternative ways to “force” people to get vaccinated, and a domestic travel ban is one such possibility.

“So, the President said earlier today that there haven’t been any recommendations to put in place domestic travel requirements. But what we saw with the Delta variant is that once it was already here, it spread rapidly across the country. So why not have any testing or vaccination requirements whatsoever for domestic air travel since people are, you know, going fairly openly across the country?” a reporter asked Psaki.

“Well, I think what you heard the President say […] was that he wasn’t taking any options off the table, but he’s going to rely on that advice of his health and medical experts,” Psaki responded.

However, like his vaccine mandate, a ban on domestic travel is also unconstitutional, as it is guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment.

Unfortunately, the Biden administration doesn’t even consider the Constitution as a guideline, let alone a set of rules.

Dr. Fauci also revealed back in September during an interview on the “Skimm This” podcast that a vaccine mandate for travel was under consideration. “I would support that,” he said. “If you want to get on a plane and travel, then you should be vaccinated.”

The scary thing is, they think they have the power to do this.

They continue to push, hoping some will go over the edge so they can confiscate guns.

So are they planning on stationing the military at state lines to check vaccination status?

Let’s put aside for a moment the discussion about the value of the Covid vaccines. There is no pressing, immediate danger here! So let Congress decide about travel bans and other restrictions.

It’s the job of the President to carry out policy, not make policy.

Oh, I forgot that we are in the age of the Imperial Presidency. Never mind.

As someone who is unvaccinated, I don’t plan on flying anywhere anytime soon, I actually hope they try this insane policy, it will be damaging for the economy, it will be incredibly unpopular among a large percentage of people, it will get struck down by the courts and it will reinforce in the minds of many people just how tyrannical the Democrats really are....

What makes you think it is limited to flying?

Buses, trains, driving to another state and staying in a hotel?

Those are traveling too.

They know they don’t have the lawful power to do this. They do this because people willingly obey.

We want this to stop? Massive disobedience.
