It’s not just nurses, firefighters, cops, military troops, and airline pilots who are getting fired over rigid COVID vaccine mandates.
Now it’s nuclear scientists with highly specialized knowledge and top-secret security clearances: ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Workers at one of the nation’s premier nuclear weapons laboratories face a deadline Friday — be vaccinated or prepare to be fired. A total of 114 workers at Los Alamos National Laboratory — the birthplace of the atomic bomb — are suing over the mandate, saying exemptions have been unduly denied and their constitutional rights are being violated by Triad National Security LLC, the contractor that runs the lab for the U.S. Department of Energy. Which is quite outrageous, given that this deprives the U.S. of vital safety expertise on nuclear explosions which is the actual mission of the lab. It’s also appalling because it leaves these scientists unemployed. They won’t stay unemployed, of course. They can take their specialized knowledge and skills to other countries. Way to go, Joe, exporting our specialized scientists instead of our manufactured goods.
Who do they expect to replace them with? As Instapundit’s Glenn Reynolds quips : “I’m sure we can replace them with Chinese PhDs.”
That’s a hell of a lot of loss over a vax mandate. They seem to think these workers are interchangeable cogs in the machinery, each either vaxxed or else easily replaced with another cog from somewhere else.
It’s also incredibly unreasonable, a one-size fits all solution. Some of these scientists have conscience concerns over the vax, others have skepticism about vaccine efficacy and safety, and still others have health conditions that make taking a vaccine a bad idea. Quite a few are likely to have natural immunity, which, studies show, is superior to any vaccine protection. But nope, no reasonable exceptions. No room for reasonable accommodation, and no room for actual science.
What’s more, it gets even crazier because there are no exceptions for those who work out of their homes. That’s people who couldn’t transmit COVID to other workers if they tried, based on elementary geography. Nope, no exceptions for those either. The vax mandate […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
