The Wuhan virus outbreak has been characterized by panic-pushing Democrats who have heavily supported the mandates. This could be as severe restrictions placed on business that caused them to close, or masking and vaccination mandates. But these mandates seem to only affect the small folks and not Democrats like President Biden and Calfornia governor. Gavin Newsom, and various Democrat mayors including Chicago’s Lori Lightfoot.
Lightfoot, who has not only demonstrated rank hypocrisy throughout the COVID outbreak but who has also displayed some rather disturbing dictatorial tendencies along the way, announced Tuesday that her city supposedly had no choice but to begin mandating residents five-years-old and over show “proof of vaccination” before they enter restaurants, bars, gyms, and most other indoor places where food and drink are served:
We didn’t want it to get to this point, but given the situation we find ourselves in, we have no choice.
Beginning Jan. 3, you must show proof you are fully vax’d to enter bars, restaurants, fitness centers, and entertainment/recreational venues where food/drink are served. 🧵 https://t.co/Zelw59mXQ1

The forms of “proof” were outlined by the Chicago Dept. Public Health
To safeguard your health, as well as your friends and community, getting vaccinated is a must.
All over the city, there is vaccine. Find yours at https://t.co/Kx6nROGjAg.

Lightfoot, however, unwittingly made a dramatic announcement about the policy, explaining that it was absurd. wasn’tIf you are just stopping by a coffee shop for a quick visit, but it is not required. WasRequired if you intend to remain for a long time.

Secondly, there are so many exceptions to her mandate that it would be comical if the issue wasn’t so serious:
And travelers can still fly in and out of Chicago without needing to show a vaccination card, and professional athletes and artists and their supporting crew are still able to play or perform whether they’re vaccinated or not.
This requirement doesn’t cover schools, grocery stores, or houses of worship. Neither are recreation centres in offices and condos that are only available to residents or tenants. Students may also be allowed to take part in school-related activities, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated.
Persons who received medical or religious dispensation can be exempted if they provide proof and have had their COVID-19 tests taken within the last 72 hours. Stopping in to a place – to use the bathroom, to place a carryout order, or a delivery worker picking up an order – isn’t required to show proof of vaccination, as long as the visit’s kept to 10 minutes or less.
You’ve gotta be freaking kidding me. This is not only going to stop any COVID variants spreading, but it’s also unacceptable for business owners who have to make their employees vaccine cops with customers. “You only staying 10 minutes? You can take the proof. Oh, you’ll be here for 20 minutes? Okay, I need to see your papers, then.”
That’s not going to go over well like at all, as we’ve already seen in places where the “vaccine proof” mandates have been put in place like New York state.
Vaccine proof is also required in Democrat-run areas like Boston, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C.
Beyond Lightfoot’s bizarre explainer on where the proof would be required and wouldn’t, she also made an illuminating admission about the rationale behind her vaccine proof order.
“To put it simply, if you have been living vaccine-free, your time is up. If you wish to live life as w/the ease to do the things you love, you must be vax’d,” she stated. “This health order may pose an inconvenience to the unvaccinated, and in fact it is inconvenient by design.”
Over the last several months as “leaders” have gotten more and more draconian in Australia, I’ve had people ask me if I think things would ever get that bad here. They asked me if I thought it would get worse. I replied by saying that I already knew.
These Democratic governors and mayors proved me wrong, unfortunately. How I wish that everyone predicted it would happen in this place.
