BIDEN: “We’re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers” pic.twitter.com/3pr5YuBUk8

If you are curious how something that used to protect you from a disease now does nothing beyond act as a mystical talisman, read The CDC Suddenly Changes the Definition of âVaccineâ and âVaccinationâ.
At the same time, they intend to ratchet up the pressure on those of us who refuse to be vaccinated for this particular disease (before calling me âanti-vax,â how about we compare vaccination histories) by attempting to make life difficult by imposing âmandatesâ for vaccination (Biden Proved Today What Liars They Are With Vaccine Mandate).
This has been like catnip for a budding fascist like Wen. Thursday night on Chris Cuomoâs show, she went full-Australian. She opined that anyone without a vaccine for Wuhan virus should be confined to their homes.
Remaining unvaccinated & going out in public is equivalent to driving under the influence. You want to be intoxicated? Thatâs your choice, but if you want to drive a car, that endangers others. No one should have the âchoiceâ to infect others with a potentially deadly disease. pic.twitter.com/a4itLS2upX

âI say that we need to start looking at the choice to remain unvaccinated, the same as we look at driving while intoxicated, that you have the option to not get vaccinated, if you want. But then, you canât go out in public.
Because, when you go out in public, you have the potential of infecting other people, with a potentially deadly disease, just like you can choose to drink in private, if you want. But if you get behind the wheel of a car, and can endanger other people, there is an obligation, by society, to prevent you from doing that.â
This will be a shock to Wen, but drunks can actually leave their house. You can even drink in public. There are videos of it happening. Moreover, drunk driving is prohibited by law, not by executive fiat.
Yesterday, she went even further. Here she is on Kate Bolduanâs show that no one watches, along with right-hand man Jeffrey Toobin. No, I donât know why he was on the show, and Iâm damned sure I donât want to think about what is going on as Wen is talking.
NEW â CNN health pundit claims travel within the U.S. is a “privilege” and not a constitutional right, calls for restriction of movement of unvaccinated citizens. pic.twitter.com/PaI8ApIRK2

She starts out talking about requiring the Wuhan vaccine to travel by airplane or train. Then, out of left field, she concludes there is no constitutional right to travel. Period.
There are privileges associated with being an American. That if you wish to have these privileges, you need to get vaccinated. Travel, and having the right to travel in our state, itâs not a constitutional right as far as I know to board a plane.
Did she actually just say that inter-state travel is not a constitutional right for American citizens??? I believe she did. https://t.co/6nJywW6XyE

Even were we to view this in the most charitable light, that is, she is only talking about plane travel, the only way this is vaguely accurate is by bold-facing the âas far as I knowâ which, in this case, means she doesnât know a whole lot. The times the federal no-fly list has been litigated, it hasnât turned out well for the government. If the ACLU were consistent, it would challenge the no-vax-no-fly rule. But it isnât, so it wonât. This is from 49 U.S. Code § 40103:
(2) A citizen of the United States has a public right of transit through the navigable airspace. To further that right, the Secretary of Transportation shall consult with the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board established under section 502 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 792) before prescribing a regulation or issuing an order or procedure that will have a significant impact on the accessibility of commercial airports or commercial air transportation for handicapped individuals.
The implication here is pretty clear. A âright of transit through the navigable airspaceâ implies the right to board a private or commercial aircraft, otherwise, it is a meaningless statement. A right, even one granted by Congress, canât be abrogated by the mere fiat of a so-called president. At a minimum, it provides fertile ground for litigation, as absolutely no other vaccine against any communicable disease is required to board an aircraft and the âpublic healthâ community is now admitting that vaccinated people can spread the disease. If you doubt me, then check with the CDCâŠI mean they do know what they are talking about, right?
Fully vaccinated people with Delta variant breakthrough infections can spread the virus to others. However, vaccinated people appear to spread the virus for a shorter time.
The idea that there is no right to travel is becoming popular with the Ministry of Fear, but that is nonsense. Unlike the question of plane travel, the issue of travel, in general, has been litigated by the Supreme Court.
In SĂĄenz v. Roe, decided in 1999, the Supreme Court stated, unequivocally, that there was a constitutional right to travel between states. The decision was 7-2 with Rehnquist and Thomas dissenting, but their dissent was based on the logic used by the majority (14th Amendment) rather than relying upon the âprivileges and immunitiesâ clause. So, really, it was 9-0. This is not an outlier; it is merely the latest of the cases that state that citizens have the right to travel as they please within the United States.
It would be great if Wen was an exception, but she isnât. The left is allowing the Wuhan âpandemicâ to release its inner totalitarian and letting the world see the way their principles are strictly situational and their lack of regard for civil or human rights.
None of the actions taken to respond to the alleged pandemic have anything to do with public health. They have everything to do with the aggrandizement of power by the âpublic healthâ mafia, the use of âpublic healthâ as a means of attacking constitutional rights, and the control of the US population.
Over and over, what we’re seeing is so many of the legal theories invoked to justify the civii liberties attacks in the name of the War on Terror are now being defended by liberals for domestic purposes: after 1/6 and with COVID. What happened to *you*??https://t.co/i8EdgtJHpt
