Slippery slopes…


Falsifying Covid vaccine cards in New York state will now land you in jail for up to one year.
Proof of Covid vaccination is required in order to enter restaurants, bars, theaters, gyms and more in New York City.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed new legislation making falsifying Covid vax cards a class A misdemeanor – and tampering with computer records related to Covid vaccines is now a class E felony.
On Wednesday, Democrat New York State assemblyman Nick Perry of Brooklyn took action to stop his bill, Assembly Bill A416, from becoming law. Perry’s bill would have given the governor of New York and local health department heads the authority to detain civilians if the civilians have “contact” or they are “suspected” of having a contagious disease. The bill would have allowed the government to detain civilians for lengthy periods of time. The bill literally states that the governor and health officials “MAY ORDER THE REMOVAL AND/OR DETENTION OF SUCH A PERSON OR GROUP OF SUCH PERSONS…” The bill has been introduced in previous legislative sessions, and the current version was referred to the Health committee on January 6, 2021.
Perry withdrew the bill after citizen journalists and Truthers rallied against the legislation on social media. Perry ranted about “Conspiracy theorists” in his statement killing his own bill. Clearly, this episode represents a victory for the Truth movement.
Nick Perry has issued a statement of defeat, and Big League Politics has obtained the text of Perry’s surrender statement. Assemblyman Nick Perry states: “Conspiracy theorists, and those who spread misinformation online are once again trolling on social media, posting concocted stories about A.416. To deprive these individuals the ability to use this issue for fuel to spread their fire of lies and mistruths, I will take the appropriate legislative action to strike the bill, remove it from the calendar, thus ending all consideration, and actions that could lead to passage into law…”
CNN medical analyst Dr. Leana Wen has demanded Joe Biden “further restrict the activities of the unvaccinated,” while Dr. Vin Gupta told MSNBC the unjabbed should be put at the back of the queue for medical treatment.
Brushing aside evidence out of South Africa and the UK confirming the Omicron variant is mild and causes significantly fewer hospitalisations, Wen asserted, “I think what we will see with Omicron is a very large number of infections due to Covid-19.”
Wen said the vaccinated would probably cope well with Omicron, before going on to scapegoat the unjabbed.
“I do have a lot of concern about what happens to parts of this country, for example, that have very low vaccination rates,” she said. “This is another reason why I think President Biden’s message yesterday was the right one in some way — in saying vaccinated people should move on with their lives with precautions. But I wish that he would go further to restrict the activities of the unvaccinated because they are the ones who are still spreading COVID and prolonging the pandemic for all of us.”
Wen has been on a personal crusade against the unvaccinated since almost as soon as the jab became available.

Unvaccinated residents of the Democratic stronghold of Chicago have been put on notice by Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who said in a Tuesday tweet:
“To put it simply, if you have been living vaccine-free, your time is up. If you wish to live life as w/the ease to do the things you love, you must be vax’d.”
The tweet accompanies a new order which states that beginning January 3rd, people must show proof of full vaccination to enter ‘bars, restaurants, fitness centers, and intertainment/recreational venues where food/drink are served.’
Former New York Times reporter and outspoken critic of the US response to the Covid pandemic Alex Berenson is suing Twitter for suspending his account, claiming the platform “acted on behalf of the federal government.
In the lawsuit, filed this week in the Northern District of California, Berenson accused Twitter of breach of contract and of violating his First Amendment rights.
The alleged breach of contract stems from the fact that Berenson claims a Twitter executive had repeatedly assured him that he would be free to express his views on the platform without fear of retaliation.
“Despite the controversy around his statements, a senior Twitter executive repeatedly assured Mr. Berenson that the company backed his right to free expression and that he would continue to enjoy access to the platform,” Berenson’s lawyers said in the suit.
The independent reporter and best-selling author was reportedly suspended from Twitter in August over a tweet questioning whether Covid vaccines could actually prevent infection and transmission of the virus, referring to them as “therapeutic” drugs. A Twitter spokesperson at the time said Berenson was permanently suspended for “repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation rules.”
In the tweet, Berenson wrote: “It doesn’t stop infection. Or transmission. Don’t think of it as a vaccine. Think of it – at best – as a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy and terrible side effect profile that must be dosed IN ADVANCE OF ILLNESS.”
Berenson argues the platform acted on behalf of the Biden administration in censoring his posts, as the president himself had criticized “misinformation” about Covid spreading on social media only days before the author’s suspension.
He is also claiming in his lawsuit that a California law applying to “common carriers” applies to Twitter. The legislation, dating back to 1872, regulates companies that “offer to the public to carry persons, property, or messages.”


In April, police officers located Lisa Hanson in Clear Lake, Iowa about 40 miles south of the restaurant she owns.
Officers placed her under arrest and transported her for booking. Hanson, who had not appeared for a March 10 court date, was released a few hours later. She admitted to one local news station that the experience was “unpleasant and scary.”
Hanson’s crime? She kept her restaurant—The Interchange Wine & Coffee Bistro—open in December against the order of Governor Tim Walz, who in mid November had issued a new lockdown on bars and restaurants, gyms, sports, and social gatherings. Walz’s order did not prohibit liquor stores, barber shops, salons, and retail businesses from operating.
Hanson publicly said she believed the order was unfair and a violation of her constitutional rights.
“We knew right away that it was wrong what the government was doing to us,” Hanson said following her arrest.
Eight months later, Hanson had her day in court. Last week the jury, after deliberating for an hour, found her guilty of six criminal misdemeanor charges. Judge Joseph Bueltel handed Hanson a 90-day jail sentence and fined her $1,000 in a blistering denunciation.
“You wanted to make money over the interest of public safety,” he said. “You don’t recognize the law. You don’t think you’re subject to the law.”
