Today, SCOTUS heard oral arguments on the OSHA vaccine mandate — Joe Biden’s ‘work around’ to force COVID vaccines or testing requirements on private businesses with 100 or more employees.
Some of the most shocking comments by Justices Sonia Sotomayor, and Stephen Breyer were covered in our coverage. Their comments were astonishing because they revealed the justices didn’t seem to know or understand basic facts about the virus and vaccines. Sotomayor said crazy things like there were 100 thousand kids in serious condition from COVID with “many on ventilators,” and that Omicron is as serious as Delta — two demonstrably false things.
Breyer then decided to continue her fantasy COVID comments company. When there are just 330 million Americans, Breyer said that over 750million were caught with COVID. He also indicated he thought all the cases could be stopped by this OSHA mandate — something that, again, is simply not even logical or living in reality.
Fortunately, it sounds like the conservative majority on the Court may have some sense on the matter, even if the liberal wing doesn’t. They didn’t trip over themselves as Breyer and Sotomayor did. They indicated skepticism as to the “emergency” nature of the OSHA rule and also questioned whether or not Congress had given OSHA such authority. Now, it’s always a good thing to add the proviso that justices’ questions don’t necessarily indicate how they are going to decide. Often, they ask things to rule out positions they’re not inclined toward. However, we do know that they don’t lack the ability to understand as much as the liberal wing. These are valid questions to be asking.
But there’s a side story to the arguments today that says a lot about the left and their pro-vaccine mandate mania.
Some left-leaning people were happy to hear that OSHA had been repealed by two lawyers who had been arguing against it.
BREAKING
It’s just so.

Nancy Lee Grahn is an actress in “General Hospital,” who plays the character Alexis Davis. She was furious at her coworkers not getting vaccinated. Two of her colleagues were subsequently let go from the show — despite working there for more than 25 years — because they stood up against such mandates. It is amazing how absurd the virus has caused people to be on the right. These people are happy when lawyers bring down a virus. They are those who have been indoctrinated and believe that the virus is moral justice.

Now, it wasn’t quite the “karma” they thought it was, since at least one of the lawyers was both vaccinated and boosted. This shows that even though you have been vaccinated, it is still possible to get it. That disproves the very thing that Justice Breyer was suggesting — being vaccinated doesn’t stop it. It’s a bit odd that someone would celebrate this.
