House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., has begun following through on her pledge to hold Democrats accountable for their "power-grab policies" during the COVID-19 pandemic. In a press conference at the Capitol, Stefanik said: "This week, House Republicans are voting on legislation to restore our constitutional rights and freedoms after two long years of Democrats' COVID-19 power-grab policies." The New York Republican maintains that certain Democrat-led COVID-19 policies brought "irreparable damage" to her state, including "children's development, financial strain on our small businesses, and unnecessary deaths among our most vulnerable seniors due to former disgraced Gov. Andrew Cuomo's deadly and fatal nursing home order." On Monday, the GOP passed the Freedom for Health Care Workers Act, which halts the process of healthcare workers being subject to COVID-19 vaccine mandates. And on Tuesday, Stefanik voted to pass the Pandemic Is Over Act.… read more news: https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/house-gop-democrats/2023/02/01/id/1106898/ It’s great to see Republicans from blue states taking the lead in holding these blue states responsible for their actions. They cost their citizens an incalculable amount in lost economic and educational opportunities. Their control freak Fascist dictatorial power trip harmed the people of their states and the country.
The funny thing is that they crippled their own states to the benefit of red ones. It’s good to see Republicans from New York and California taking the lead on this and hold their own states as well as our fascist federal regime accountable for their excessive and abusive misuse of power.
"House Republicans are committed to a future that is built on freedom, and today we are righting the wrong that two years of authoritarian lockdowns and mandates have forced on the American people." Stefanik said the previous Congress allowed the Democrats to weaponize the federal government to enforce vaccine mandates and abuse billions of U.S. tax dollars. But now, "House Republicans will also pass the SHOW UP Act. Americans across the country show up to work every day. There is no reason why federal employees should not be held to the same standard," said Stefanik, while adding that "House Republicans will deliver on our promises to hold Democrats accountable for their failed COVID-19 policies." From the thread linked here and right on!
Great, +1 million covid deaths not enough for her? 2 million? 3 million? How many would it take for her to acknowledge that lockdowns can be an effective pubic health measure? In any case, we camped at Cumberland Bay State Park (in her district) twice during the 2020 first covid summer. The state park was open for camping, but closed for walk-in from the general public. It was great, we had the beach to ourselves. I wonder why she couldn't keep her own state par open.
The lockdowns were effective in killing people in ways unrelated to Covid. Deaths of despair among young people skyrocketed. It was quite interesting to see that Africa fared far better than Western countries. It turns out that having an average age more than 20 years below the Western average is by far the most effective protection against the virus. Their death rates never passed 100 per million. Hilarious when 3rd world countries with zero Covid response from the government annihilate most industrialized nations on the planet that went full fascist to "combat Covid". I hope that the Western politicians that went fascist are tracked down, tried, convicted and sent to prison for their treason. The amount of damage they did was in the tens of trillions. The amount of lives they cost is in the hundreds of thousands. COVID-19 pandemic death rates by country - Wikipedia
With Trump they were guidelines. With blue states and Biden they were enforced mandates and controls.
One can only hope but I doubt Dems will suffer much. They control too much of our culture. They have socially engineered to many and Reps have caught onto it far too late I think. That’s not to say over time they won’t, I think overtime culture is moving rightward. But for the moment. It’s solidly blue.
Actually she’s a near future VP nominee between now and 2032 and speaker or president after that time.
No, she’s appealing to the truth. We in red jurisdictions are indeed seeking revenge and retribution politically against all who manifested lock downs, emergency powers, discrimination, cancel culture, mandates, and shaming upon us during the pandemic. Prepare for a dish served cold.
Greene will never be VP, President, or Speaker. Nor do I want her to be in any of those elected offices
