End Result will be

President Joe Biden has agreed to end the US military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy suggested on Sunday.
McCarthy, who is expected to be House Speaker in the new Congress, told Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures that he spoke with the president about a provision to end the rule included in this year's annual defense budget.
Republicans have been pushing for months to end the military's two-jab rule, arguing that its depletion of America's fighting forces presents a threat to national security.
Now that they've secured a narrow House majority for next year, McCarthy said he made clear to Biden that there will need to be areas of 'compromise' for any hope of legislative success.
'I had a meeting with the president, I laid out very clearly what the difference will be with a new Republican majority,' McCarthy said.
'Through what is the [National Defense Authorization Act], the national defense bill, we will secure lifting the vaccine mandates on our military.'
The California Republican said he was 'very clear' with Biden on House Republican priorities - like holding the NDAA hostage until the vaccine rule repeal is included.
'The bill will not move' if the language isn't in it, McCarthy promised.

It’s pretty funny, talking about ‘convincing’ Biden about anything.
Biden cannot be ‘convinced’; he’s not there.
So just who did Kevin convince?
LOL..
The rule was created with the stroke of a pen.
It’s really not too tough to figure out how this goes.
1.) Biden agrees to this deal.
2.)Republicans hail McCarthy as a hero and elect him Speaker.
3.) They pass the budget deal.
4.) Biden again requires vaccines because “new variants” or “improved shots” or some other “unforeseen” reason.
5.) McCarthy says “It’s not my fault!!!” Fox News runs stories about how the Democrats always lie.
Folks, this isn’t that hard to figure out.
Where will lil Hunter get his drug money ???
Ping.
Treason is on the horizon, I hope
It may indeed be different, but will that fine distinction matter to the media when they want to browbeat McCarthy into submission? I don’t think so.
What about the rest of us? If we are taking it off the table for our service men and women how about take it off the table for everyone. Period. Full stop.
The mandate should never have been in place. I trust retribution occurs against those who mandated it and enforced it.
Now if he can get Mexico to pay for the border wall, we’d have a winner.
BFD. That’s such a minimal gain....and he hopes to be looked at as the conservative hero. FUKM
Not good enough, He needed to get all of the military that were let go to be reinstated with back pay.
They promised to repeal and replace obamacare. Yep, we have indeed see this movie before.
Until Sniffer proves he is President, I don’t think McCarthy has anything.
What did McCarthy give Biden in return is the question
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, he may have convinced Biden because dementi joe is clueless but his handlers are not, therefore, the mandate will continue, some way, some how.
