President Biden on Thursday called on state and local governments to use funds from his $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan to offer $100 payments to individuals in order to incentivize coronavirus vaccinations. The payments would be offered to newly vaccinated Americans to provide “an extra incentive to boost vaccination rates, protect communities, and save lives,” the Treasury Department said in an announcement Thursday afternoon. “Treasury stands ready to give technical assistance to state and local governments so that they may use the funds effectively to support increased vaccination in their communities, and Treasury will partner with the Department of Health and Human Services throughout this effort,” it said.

Yet those of us who voluntarily got the jab don't get diddly squat. Talk about garbage. They should be paying us double, not rewarding the reluctant and the obstinate. .

Why don't they understand that the more hysterical they get about folks taking the vaccine, the less likely I am to take it. First, I was skeptical, but thought I'd take it by August. Then they started saying we needed to take it or we couldn't go out on the fourth. Hmm. Ok, less likely to take it. Then they start saying they're going to send folks door to door. Wow, Yeah, I'm thinking I might not take it. Now they're saying, we'll bribe you to take it. Now I know I'm not going to take it.

If those who believed all this mask and shot stuff aren't convinced by now that there is way more going on than a flu, then nothing will. There is an obsession to get everyone in the country vaccinated against something 98% survivable. More are dying or having serious reactions from the vaccine itself.

You know what you can do with your $100! The only question people need to ask themselves, is WHY are they pushing the vaccine so hard? It’s certainly not for our benefit. There’s something a lot more nefarious going on. Wake up America!! Wake the hell up!!

I know how lie-beral Demon-Rat fascist dictator-wanna-be's work. Today it is a "suggestion". Tomorrow it will be mandated by the federal government. And I would say they won't pay a penny of this terrible and expensive mandate to the states, but that is only partially true. No red states will see a penny of assistance. But the blue states will all get fully reimbursed for their expenses.

Every GOP senator on the Senate Judiciary Committee has demanded a second hearing for President Biden’s embattled nominee to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) over alleged past racist comments. The 11 Republican senators, led by ranking member Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, demanded another hearing for Biden’s ATF nominee David Chipman in a Thursday letter to committee chairman Dick Durbin, D-Ill. According to the senators’ press release, they called for the hearing "following now-corroborated reports of racist comments directed at other ATF employees."

The Biden administration today declared the COVID-19 vaccines legal. It was only a few months ago that Kamala Harris said she would NEVER take the Trump endorsed vaccine. The Department of Justice concluded in an opinion that federal law doesn’t prohibit public agencies and private businesses from requiring COVID-19 vaccines under the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorization. On July 26, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, California, and New York City said they would require some of their government workers to get the COVID-19 shot or be tested weekly. Veterans Affairs, with the move, became the first federal agency to mandate the vaccine.

One of the most obvious misconceptions about liberals today is that they personify tolerance. The Oxford English Dictionary defines tolerance as "the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with. A recent poll by the Survey Center on American Life at the American Enterprise Institute found that Democrats are twice as likely as Republicans to report ending a friendship over a political disagreement (20% versus 10%). Liberals are also "far more likely than conservatives are to say they are no longer friends with someone due to political differences" (28% versus 10%).

Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky, the director of the agency, acknowledged on Tuesday that vaccinated people with so-called breakthrough infections of the Delta variant carry just as much virus in the nose and throat as unvaccinated people, and may spread it just as readily, if less often.

McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas could become Harry Reid International as soon as September, a Clark County official said today. The county could conduct a ceremony and put up a new sign this fall to mark the renaming of the airport for the former longtime U.S. senator from Nevada, said Commissioner Tick Segerblom, a leading advocate for the renaming. The County Commission unanimously voted in February to rename the county-owned and operated airport for Democrat Reid, a Searchlight native who spent more than 30 years in Washington, mostly as a senator but also as a U.S. representative. He was Senate majority leader from 2007 to 2015.

He said that civilian federal employees will be required to “attest” that they have been vaccinated. If not, then they would have to submit to regular COVID-19 testing and masking guidelines, with restrictions on their travel. The White House also said they would be encouraging localities to provide $100 to newly vaccinated individuals using leftover COVID-19 relief funds, according to information they released today. They’re going to restrict travel?
