The Democratic Party Is, Has Been and always Will Be, the Party of Slavery. The Vaccine Mandate is their claim that citizens of the United States are their property to be done with as the Party pleases and exempted at their whim to benefit their political favorites.

I am waiting for the 13th Amendment suits to start.

As much as I enjoyed reading the entire order along with Mark's excellent breakdown of it, Judge Duncan's (concurring) final words were my favorite:

"Whether Congress could enact such a sweeping mandate under its

interstate commerce power would pose a hard question ... Whether OSHA can do so does not.

I concur in granting a stay."

It's the elegance not so much of the prose but of the logic. It's basically, "If Congress were to pass such a measure and the President were to sign it into law, maybe it would pass constitutional muster, maybe it wouldn't - we'd have to take a hard look. But some piddly little, dime a dozen bureaucratic agency that virtually no one would even notice if it disappeared tomorrow? Puh leez!"

Read those few words of the Judge a second time and I dare you to say they don't well express your understanding of both the spirit and the letter of our glorious Constitution.

This is hopeful. That it takes so long to apply what is obvious common sense, is not...we should be able as a civilized society to react more quickly to the crazy and screwball and dictatorial pronouncements of various government tyrants.

And here's how Business Insider tries to discredit the order. I guess biased judges are only a problem when they rule against your interests.

Even with this major smack down by the 5th Circuit, don't expect these communists running the country to back off. They'll pull every legal and illegal lever they can to get their way. Next up will be manipulating the decision as to which appeals court most sympathetic to their cause will get to hear the consolidated lawsuits. Their lawlessness knows no boundary...

It's a hopeful ruling, but given that Brandon and his Bolsheviks seem to only apply the law to others and as such make proclamations for corporations to ignore the court, what happens if they thumb their nose at this? It's becoming more obvious that they intend to do whatever it takes to destroy the US.

If you saw General Flynn on Tucker last night, I think he's spot on...
