Supports Mandatory Vaccines For Workers…
As the Biden administration prepares to make vaccines mandatory for all federal workers, and the CDC Director hints at ‘health passes‘ to be able to function in society, the nation’s largest union boss says that the AFL-CIO supports mandatory vaccines for workers.
In comments to C-SPAN‘s “The Washington Journal,” AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said “Yes we do” when asked if the organization supported vaccine mandates. “If you are coming back into the workplace, you have to know what’s around you.”
Earlier this week, the Department of Veterans Affairs became the first federal agency to require that all its medical facility employees receive the jab, while President Biden on Tuesday announced that a mandate for federal employees is “under consideration right now” (with news orgs today reporting it’s all but certain).
On Monday, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) announced that all city employees would either need to be vaccinated or submit to weekly COVID-19 tests starting Sept. 13, giving employees six weeks for unvaccinated employees to make up their minds.
But a union representing emergency workers with the New York City Fire Department, FDNY EMS Local 2507, opposed the mandate, saying “the city and the mayor cannot simply disregard the civil liberties of the workforce.”
Explaining why the AFL-CIO supports vaccine mandates, Trumka said on C-SPAN that “everybody” in the workplace would be jeopardized if a worker is not vaccinated. He also said it’s hard to make proper accommodations if a business doesn’t know if an employee has been vaccinated. -The Hill
“After we get everybody vaccinated in the United States, we have to help people around the world get vaccinated so that more and more variants don’t start springing up and jeopardizing us and our economy, so that we don’t see another shutdown like we saw last year when COVID first hit,” said Trumka, adding that “the best thing that can happen is a vaccination” to prevent COVID variants.
“The president has done a great job on COVID. What we need to do now is get more people vaccinated, and I think the mandate is an acceptable way to do it,” he said.

- (no title)DO YOU KNOW GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS?; IT’S WHAT OURS MUST BE FOR ETERNAL LIFE- Ps.9:8 When the Psalmist in Ps.9:8 wrote, “And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.” We are being told that when God judges the world His judgement will be according to our relationship with Him. Which is our righteousness. Our righteousness is the wedding garment the man in Mt.22:12,13 was thrown out of the wedding for not having on. We too will be judged in regard to that relationship. As Paul taught in 1Cor.3:11-15 if we have believed in Jesus for eternal life we will be saved. If we have not believed in Jesus for eternal life we will not be saved. Any works we have done will only serve as the means to determine rewards. Not for…
- Watchman’s View, The World Hates True Christ BelieversJesus, the Christian’s ultimate model, was alone at his death because of his unwillingness to compromise truth. “He was deserted, forgotten, betrayed, and alone! At my first defense, no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. May it not be charged against them! But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion’s mouth. The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. “The cost of standing for truth is so high, so precious, so all-consuming that almost no one will meet it.

- Watchman’s Daily Devotional…Woe to those who confuse good with evil and evil with good, who exchange light for darkness and darkness for light, who trade sweet for bitter and bitter for sweet! In Christ, our perspective transforms, allowing us to see the world in its true light. You may find that as people analyze the same facts or circumstances, they arrive at completely different conclusions. It becomes evident that individuals often accuse others of the very faults they possess. Many strive to rationalize immoral actions and wickedness, prioritizing the rights of offenders over the healing of victims. Groupthink often overshadows sound reasoning in our society. Contradictory and illogical assertions are rampant. Take a moment to reflect on the absurdity of the claim, “There are no absolutes.” Isn’t that itself an absolute statement? People may cite Scripture to support their disbelief in the…
- Watchman…by Tyler Durden Wednesday, Jun 17, 2026 – 02:25 PM Recently we reported on the MLB’s angry response to three San Francisco Giants players who scribbled bible verses across their “Pride Night” uniforms in a silent protest. The incident takes place in the midst of a rising tide of popular opposition to the woke movement’s political authoritarianism. Gay pride has become synonymous with the liberal “cry-bully”: Activists who try to assert social dominance over others then play the victim when people fight back. California State Senator and rabid gay activist Scott Wiener is the epitome of a typical woke cry-bully. He is perhaps best known as an advocate for the “kink community” and his defense of gender treatments (hormones and sex change surgeries) for children. He is also a militant supporter of sexualized LGBT propaganda in public schools. Wiener has…

Wonder how many US Covid hospitalizations were only diagnosed post-admission, keeping in mind of course that US hospitals are paid more for Covid patients under the CARES Act.
Too many Balls are missing in this country right now. The coup is done and nothing was done to stop it.
