Biden knows his vax mandates are unconstitutional — but just doesn’t care
NY Post ^ | September 10, 2021 | Andrew C. McCarthy

Posted on 01/10/2022 8:56:58 AM PST by george76

resident Joe Biden is not chastened by the Supreme Court smackdown .. when the justices invalidated the eviction moratorium that even administration officials acknowledge was patently lawless right before Biden reissued it.

...

The administration is similarly well aware that the national vaccine mandate that the resident is poised to issue is unlawful. White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain made the obvious explicit by retweeting a progressive commentator’s observation that the ploy of imposing the vaccine requirement as a workplace-safety rule under OSHA .. is the “ultimate work-around.”

Translation: The resident knows that an executive order mandating COVID vaccination would be shot down instantly, so he’s trying to camouflage it in a maze of Labor Department regulation.

...

It has been nearly 40 years since OSHA tried that trick . . . mainly because the courts struck it down, on an asbestos regulation, in 1983.

In a sensible world, where the originalist interpretation of the Constitution governed, Biden’s move would be patently unconstitutional. Congress has no overarching public-health authority.

OSHA relies for its regulations on Congress’ power under the commerce clause. But a vaccine isn’t even commerce, let alone interstate commerce.

In our federalist system as originally designed, the states were to be sovereign in governing their internal affairs. In that tradition, it is the states, not the federal government, that have imposed vaccination requirements, particularly in schools.

...

Sadly, we are sure to see more instances of overreach. At this point, Biden is not so much trying to impose his will as to use — or better, abuse — the levers of executive power in a way that assures progressives that he is on their side. For this resident, his sworn duty to execute the laws faithfully is beside the point.

According to a talk show this weekend Brain Dead Biden plans to ignore the Supreme Court Ruling and direct OSHA to kept the Vax mandate in place.

What can the court do, arrest the President? Biden/Klain think they can get away with ignoring the Supreme Court without any consequences.

I don’t know...Biden’s odds in THIS USSC probably aren’t that bad. Roberts might find a way to approve it by making it a tax something.

Why should he care?

The entire Kenyanesian Usurpation was unconstitutional.

Allowing the Ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia into the White House to corrupt our ENTIRE government and stuff it full of communists was a BIPARTISAN project.

McCain and Romney were both willing, intentional Designated Losers.

In terms of being legally punished, they may be right.

In theory it should lead to impeachment but neither party would do it.

That’s how the democommies operate. Constitution? Meh! Injuctions? Meh! Court orders? Meh! Subpoenas? Meh! They simply ignore anything they want to and zip diddly happens to them. Kinda of like the smash and grab thieves knowing that nobody is going to do anything to them so why not. And nobody DOES do anything...................

Nor does OSHA and wondering about the Supreme court. Not much push back against the NWO vax machine.

The braindead libtard doesn’t even know what day it is, so it’s doubtful he has any idea what “his” mandate is, let alone care about its legality.

Joe Biden and his administration has no use for the United States Constitution, never has.

Impeach him for failing to protect the U.S. Constitution and for failing to close the Southern Border therefore failing to protect America and Americans. A most egregious crime as POTUS.

Exactly... they don’t care, because who,is,going,to,hold them accountable? The left learned thstntheynhave noone to,oppose them politically,,and they know that the msm covers up,for,them, so,they are now engaged in a hostile, violent takeover of the country. They are so lawless that they call,obviously violent and massively destructive riots “mostly peaceful”, and refuse to arrest,and prosecute their tools, antifa and blm, and they bs the public into thinking that it really was “mostly peacful” and convinced the public thstnthe right is “simply everything out of proportion for politcal reasons”

They control the narrative, they control the nation. Just like in communist nations- that is how,they were successfully able to turn citizen against citizen over a,virus with anm verall survivability rate of over 99%

So what we have is petty bureaucrats in a federal agency created by Congress fraudulently passing fake "law" with powers that Congress did not give them the legal power to create and that even Congress has no Constitutional power to enact as law because under our federal system that power resides with The States.

If you want a revolution, that's how you get a revolution.

Republicans just don’t have the will or courage to do the right things. They float along like driftwood on a river.

They come out of hiding and make a little noise right before every election then go back to sleep after its over. Cycle after cycle. Same old thing.
