I need to take a break, so I’ll just link.
This is a great, great article—and kudos to Bobby Kennedy Jr. for coming up with the transcript. Really stunning:
And here’s a terrific post by Sundance:
Despite High Vaccination Rate Amtrak Suspends Vaccine Mandate, The Background Tells a Story
An excerpt:
Let’s cut through some politically correct corporate speech and media spin, and instead focus on a few key aspects:
First, the cause of the operational change, a frequency change in Amtrak service, was specifically admitted to be due to the vaccine mandate. This is EXACTLY the opposite of the White House claim earlier today (see below). The vaccine mandate was the cause of the operational change, Amtrak admits this – the White House refutes [i.e., denies] this.
Second, a reduction of 500 non-vaccinated people amid a company payroll exceeding 17,000; to the extent that the reduction actually changes the operational service of the company; tells us the unvaccinated people were specifically critical to the service the company provides.
This second point gets to the heart of a thesis we have proposed before. It’s not an issue of how many people, or what percentage, quit over a vaccine requirement, it’s a more specific issue of WHO those people are and what they do.
This is a point that Karl Denninger has repeatedly made. There are key people without whom stuff just can’t run. Things fall apart.
That conversation between Lawrie and Hill, in its entirety, is absolutely riveting. Lawrie gives evidence of being an extremely intelligent and admirably principled lady. She doesn't give Hill an inch as far as accepting what he has done. Still she gives him the opportunity to rectify his actions by joining her in essentially vitiating them and he refuses to take it.
What a frighteningly graphic illustration of corruption - something we all as fallen human beings are subject to and need to be vigilant about.
"Second, a reduction of 500 non-vaccinated people amid a company payroll exceeding 17,000; to the extent that the reduction actually changes the operational service of the company; tells us the unvaccinated people were specifically critical to the service the company provides."
It also tells us that Amtrack is a bloated monstrosity of a subsidized POS excuse for a company- what are those other >16,500 doing day to day??
Another great Biden success story.
