Congress Votes NOT To Reinstate Pilots Who Rejected Vaccines
If you didn't get the vaccine, the government still wants to punish you.
This is why no one should have gotten excited because the Republicans gained a majority in congress. They're all on the same team. Here's the amendment that was rejected:
Miller (R-IL) on behalf of Greene (R-GA) – Amendment No. 36 – Requires airlines to reinstate pilots who were fired or forced to resign because of vaccine mandates – VOTE REQUESTED
And the requested vote went this way:
NO - 294
YES - 141
81 Republicans voted no. Only one democrat broke ranks and voted yes.
So, our tyrannical government, that still technically has us in an emergency health crisis so they can "lawfully" take away our freedoms, is punishing people who refused to get the vaccine.
They are letting everyone know you had better do what we tell you or you will suffer consequences.
Buy the book: I'm Nobody. Who Are You? Can We Save the World?
Some comments on the book:
“It’s a cool gift for a fellow-dissident friend that can relate to the material. It’s like reading a war journal by someone you never met that was in the same conflict as you; you mostly read it for the good feelings you have as you nod along in agreement and reinforce the neural pathways that got fired up as you lived through your particular shared-but-unshared moment of history’s hell.” —Guttermouth from The Gutter
“I received your book today, and I can now honestly say, I couldn’t put it down. I read it from cover to cover, flipping pages with anticipation and delight. I read words and sentences that sounded as though they were flowing from my own mind (even to the point of reading the sentences that “filled that empty space” at the very end).
I will review. I will share. I will continue the fight of the nobodies of the world.” — John here on Substack
"This was a fun and very funny book, written in an interesting and innovative style. We’re all basically inmates in this open-air asylum known as Western Civilization in 2023. Here’s an enjoyable letter from a fellow inmate to lift your spirits, let you know you’re not alone, and inspire you with the possibility that maybe there are enough kindred spirits that we can change this world for the better. For anyone who feels like our postmodern culture has gone completely crazy, this book will be a thoroughly enjoyable read." — Mr. Thursday, Amazon Review
"A great way to spend an hour or so. The words of so many who love freedom, but who have never written them for others to embrace, are now available in short order and short form.
If you love freedom, reality and truth, all sprinkled with levity, more honesty and bit of snarky meme, this book will delight.
We can, we must, and we will save the world." — John, Amazon Review
This article also appears on my website, The Asylum. The website also has several things that are not possible to do on Substack: The World Economic Forum Members Reference (thanks to Dr. Malone), Red State/Blue State reference showing Senate and House percentages by party affiliation, quotes, a large resources section, a robust search feature and some other things unique to the site: quizzes, word games and leaked communications. These latter three are satirical and funny, at least in my mind, but you'll have to be the ultimate judge on that.
Devil's Advocate response to Reps voting NO (please re-read this line each time you feel yourself getting angry at me):
The first two words- REQUIRES AIRLINES- indicates this is a bill mandating a private business (yes, I know this is arguable when we're talking about Big Air) to operate in a certain way not having to do with EOE protected classes.
It's a mandate just like the first mandate, it's simply going in the direction we want this time.
If you're a Republican legislator who takes a hard line on government mandating private business, I can see voting against yet another forced hiring/firing precedent.
This is the same as being a free-speech absolutist: sometimes you have to vote on the side of odious behavior in the name of the principle at stake.
I'm taking a short cut and not doing the usual research before commenting, but a few questions lingered. I will do some looking when time allows, but asking these may shed more light.
What government agency restricted smart non-vaccinated pilots from doing their job?
What did the amendment actually say? In other words, did it eliminate the offending fiat rule, or did it add another layer of gov't gobelty gook?
And was it another mandate for companies to comply to, or was it a restriction of gov't overreach. The two are very different.
I fully agree that this so called majority, that was supposed to be on the aide of restoring sanity, or at least slowing the hemorrhage of gov't has been disappointing at best.
The Uniparty is alive and well, unfortunately.
