Here we are. The public health experts of the right wing extremist Supreme Court decided that this was a perfect time to start their crusade against government regulation, by limiting the scope of OSHA as they have long dreamed of doing:
The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked the Biden administration from enforcing a vaccine-or-testing mandate for large employers, dealing a blow to a key element of the White House’s plan to address the pandemic as cases resulting from the Omicron variant are on the rise.
But the court allowed a more modest mandate requiring health care workers at facilities receiving federal money to be vaccinated.
The vote in the employer mandate case was 6 to 3, with liberal justices in dissent. The vote in the health care case was 5 to 4, with Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh joining the liberal justices to form a majority.
Aand, just so it’s clear how we came to this:
What a day. Just one slap in the face after another.
I’m sure it’s all Joe Biden’s fault. I’ll wait for the media to tell me why later.
