Weatherman Fired After 33 Years on the Job for Refusing Vaccine, Goes Out with Legendary Final Words

With a prediction for very stormy weather ahead for the nation he loves, meteorologist Karl Bohnak signed off last week after being fired for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine.

Bohnak had served as the weatherman at Michigan’s WLUC-TV for 33 years, according to The Washington Post. Gray Television, WLUC’s parent company, instituted a vaccine-or-else policy that went into effect on Wednesday.

“I am sad, but, to borrow a quote from a famous ballplayer, ‘I’m the luckiest man on the face of the earth’ because I had a dream as a kid to be a weatherman.

“That dream came true and to top it off, I got to broadcast weather for one of the most challenging, beautiful spots in the United States. As an added bonus, the people I broadcast to all across Upper Michigan were so kind and encouraging,” he wrote.

But a cloud has fallen over the land of the free, he wrote.

I had to post this because Karl articulates so well the issues surrounding and before us.

And he willingly sacrificed his livelihood for the America we love.

(Note: WAPO is WLUC's parent company and note that Jeff Bezos was a child of a CIA Swamp beneficiary which connected him to tens of billions of CIA contract funds for his 2011 faltering Amazon online bookseller platform with instructions to buy the bankrupt teetering Washington Post for $125 million. Ergo, WAPO is a mouthpiece for the globalist CIA Davos group; "Great Reset", "Build Back Better" etc.)

There's a substantial protest on Karl's behalf briefly mentioned in this article. Let's pray Michiganders raise funds for his stabilization and encourage him to run for office

His excellent remarks follow here below:

But a cloud has fallen over the land of the free, he wrote.

“The abrogation of our liberty and freedom under the guise of a pandemic is very disturbing to me. Hopefully, whether you lean right or left, you are concerned about what has occurred the last year-and-a-half."

“I just wanted to go about my business, ‘live and let live’, and keep my mouth shut. But this act by the federal government through corporate America has brought me to a crossroads. Our way of life, our freedom and liberty, is collapsing before our eyes,” Bohnak wrote.

He said personal freedom should be paramount.

“Many of you have taken one of these injections, and that is absolutely your right. It is also my right to choose the medical options I feel are right for me. I have authority over my body.”

Bohnak then laid out why he had refused the vaccine.

“I have decided against the vaccine option, first and foremost, because the manufacturers of these injections have absolutely no liability if injury or death occurs after the shot. I asked myself, would I buy brakes for my vehicle if the brake company had no liability if the brakes failed? No!"

“So, I will certainly not allow a medicine in my body from a company that does not stand behind its product,” he wrote.

Bohnak said he might have received the vaccine had the risk of death from COVID-19 been significant.

“However,” he wrote, “for a normally healthy adult not housed in a nursing home or not suffering from serious comorbidities, the chance of surviving COVID is well over 99 percent. I will take the chance and go without a shot. I choose not to risk serious side effects.”

“It’s time to wake up to what is occurring here in America and across the world,” he continued.

“We are being bludgeoned with fear, I believe, in an effort to control us. Eminent doctors, virologists and epidemiologists who post facts contradicting the ‘official’ accepted narrative regarding COVID are being censored; some are losing their jobs. "

“It’s time to honor those who served. For me, I honor them by saying ‘Enough! I have the right to choose — we all do. If we do nothing, we will lose that right.”

Bohnak concluded with “a distillation of a portion of Jefferson’s masterpiece, the Declaration of Independence: ‘When tyranny becomes law, resistance becomes duty.’

“Those who love America and the freedom and liberty it stands for, must speak up. Hopefully, it’s not too late,”

he wrote.

It’s an ill wind that blows no one any good .......................

[pepsi_junkie]

Wow. A fellow like this spends a whole career as a local weatherman while a complete moron like Don Lemon has a national daily show.

[EEGator]

Good for him on taking a stand. Kudos Karl.

[hoe_cake]

Maybe it changes nothing, but I prefer to be optimistic.
Bohnak’s words are powerful. He gives voice to so many of us who don't have his state of attention. He is exactly correct.

[Steve_Seattle]

Never before have so many shown so little trust in vaccines that they claim are absolutely essential.

[hoe_cake]

truth

[Thunder90]

Gov Whitmer is trying to extend the vaccine and mask mandate to all Michigan employers.

[I want the USA back]

The nazis won. He lost his job over a doubtful medical procedure. Now that they have conditioned us to bend over and do what they say over an inflated virus, they will expect us to get on our knees and bow down saying alla alla oh master what is your bidding? And it won’t be about a virus. It will be whatever they want us to do.

[Shery]

Yes, a real American at heart! Don Lemon, on the other hand...yuck!

🤦

[servantboy777]

I am feeling those same dark clouds. A 30 year career potentially in jeopardy. I am willing to accept whatever sacrifice for freedom.

This whole pressure campaign to receive the jab is really creepy.

[kosciusko51]

I’m going to save this for my work opus. I’m not sure if it is coming or not, but I’m not optimistic.

[hawkaw]

🤦

[miserare]

An excellent statement from a fine man.

I wish him good luck in all future undertakings.

My daughter has been given notice to vax or lose her job October 1. She has applied for a religious exemption. If it is denied, she will leave and start trying to find a new job. Her feelings are consistent with the weatherman’s.

Where are the voices from the Republican Party that claims it is the party of individual liberty and conservative values. The iron fist of tyranny has slammed down on the American people. Instead of daily voicing outrage and introducing resolutions of impeachment in the house, the GOP is silent.

Anyone who believes electing a GOP majority in the Senate and House in 2022 is going to make a difference is fooling themselves. In my long life on this planet I have never seen a GOP Congress effectively thwart the agenda of a Democrat president or roll back leftist gains. Once ground is ceded, the GOP never fights to reclaim it. In fact, the only thing the GOP will consistently fight for is lower taxes for the corporate oligarchs and tech moguls who outsource American jobs and invest their profits in funding ANTIFA, BLM, Southern Poverty Law Center, Planned Parenthood and a myriad of other leftist social activist groups working to destroy the Republic.

As Mitch about Biden’s tyranny. All I’ve heard from Mitch is “Orange Man bad”.

Getting a bigger audience in entertainment has little to do with diffrences in talent. There is plenty of talent that never makes it big. It’s not what you know, it’s who you blow.
