It's truly a sad day when American soldiers fight for our freedoms, and are willing to die to protect them, yet their freedoms are being stripped away.
According to reports, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin plans to make the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for all members of the military by mid-September, OR "immediately" upon approval from the Food and Drug Administration.
Austin wrote in a memo all Department of Defense on August 9:
As many of you know, President Biden asked me to consider how and when we might add the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines to the list of those required for all Service members. So, over the last week, I have consulted closely with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Secretaries of the Military Departments, the Service Chiefs, and medical professionals. I appreciate greatly the advice and counsel they provided. Based on these consultations and on additional discussions with leaders of the White House COVID Task Force, I want you to know that I will seek the President’s approval to make the vaccines mandatory no later than mid-September, or immediately upon the U.S. Food and Drug Agency (FDA) licensure, whichever comes first.
Message to the Force Memo -... by Kristina Wong
He continued, “The intervening few weeks will be spent preparing for this transition. I have every confidence that Service leadership and your commanders will implement this new vaccination program with professionalism, skill, and compassion. We will have more to say about this as implementation plans are fully developed.”
"To defend this Nation, we need a healthy and ready force. I strongly encourage all DoD military and civilian personnel – as well as contractor personnel – to get vaccinated now and for military Service members to not wait for the mandate,” Austin added. “All FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccines are safe and highly effective. They will protect you and your family. They will protect your unit, your ship, and your co-workers. And they will ensure we remain the most lethal and ready force in the world."
Our military members are not guinea pigs. The government does not get to test whatever they want on our troops. This is completely unfair.

Sen. Cruz: 'Pelosi is Drunk on Power' - Probably Vodka Too
On Thursday, Senator Ted Cruz slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on the Senate floor, declaring that she is drunk on power with her new mask mandates. Power isn't the only thing she is drunk on...I'd say there is some vodka in the mix too.
“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts, absolutely. Great men are almost exclusively bad men, even where they exercise influence and not authority,” Cruz said, pulling from a series of letters to Bishop Craig from Lord Acton. He added that “those words were true in 1887, and they’re true today.”
WATCH: Staffer Passes Biden a Note to Wipe His Chin
Joe Biden. Bless his heart. How he has wormed his way into the Oval Office when he should be in a nursing home is beyond me. Yet here we are.
Today, Biden sat in front of cameras for what appears to be a wildfire briefing. Suddenly a staffer comes into view and slides a piece of paper to Biden. He reads it, and then promptly wipes his chin. However, he then holds the note where the camera can see it at different points. Once, it even faces the camera directly.

Rep. Greg Murphy Warns Against U.S. 'Orwellian Atmosphere' With COVID

Sen. Marsha Blackburn: New Mask Mandates an 'Overreach'
Senator Marsha Blackburn roasted Nancy Pelosi and others who are calling for renewed mask mandates, stating that they "obviously are not following the science and they do not believe in the efficacy of the vaccines."
"I think it's a bit of an overreach," she told Newsmax on Friday. "You are seeing (Speaker) Nancy Pelosi try to pull another power play. Bear in mind, since last March of 2020, what have we heard from these guys.They want lockdowns. They want you to wear gloves, to mask up, to socially distance."

On Friday, Rep. Steve Scalise declared that Democrats are ''throwing science out the window'' in regards to COVID and mask mandates.

That can't happen again," he told Newsmax. ''The science says...
