But yet we have this situation with the very health care workers within the system.

A U.S. study finds 27 percent of healthcare workers were unvaccinated as of early summer, posing a risk to sick and elderly patients. The low employee vaccination rate in one Kentucky nursing home “provided...

Healthcare workers have been gradually coming around to COVID-19 vaccines, with one-third more people vaccinated since earlier in the year, but 27 percent of them are still unvaccinated, and 15 percent of the unvaccinated group are firmly opposed to immunizations. More healthcare employers may be pressured to mandate immunizations to stave off contagious Delta variant infections.

The fact that 27 percent of staff in healthcare facilities are currently unvaccinated poses a significant risk to vulnerable patients,

there is nothing but hate in the qtrumplican party. but you would have to wake up & open your eyes & ears to notice anything at all that is actually happening in the real world & you have already proven that you won't do that.

This post is confusing because of the use of qtrumplican party--because there is no such political party.  But if you are saying that "there is nothing but hate in the Republican Party--that is a lie, because not all Republicans aligned with the Party are hateful.

your ignorance about climate change shows again what an idiot you are. and by the way your leader is the 1 that had been setting precedents about abuse of executive power so if someone else does overstep you can blame donny for starting the trend.

Actually, FDR was probably the first to abuse executive power. Although this article is from 2001--it still proves your statement incorrect.

WWW.HERITAGE.ORG

In recent years, there has been renewed interest in the proper use and possible abuse of executive orders and other presidential directives. Many citizens and lawmakers expressed concern over the content and...

Unfortunately, FDR also showed a tendency to abuse his executive order authority and claim powers that were not conferred on him in the Constitution or by statute.25 President Harry Truman followed this pattern of governing by executive order.

Then came William Clinton

Nevertheless, Presidents since Truman were generally more careful to stay within their constitutional and statutory grants of authority in the exercise of their executive order authority--until the Administration of President Clinton.

the article was very interesting & contained a lot of factual material. but if you read it carefully you will see that most of the things that you are afraid of are being perpetrated by your heroes & then the blame is projected to others. the division is being fed by right wing hate groups (proudboys, 3 percenters, etc) supported by the rich (trump & his supporters) turning everyone against each other. it mentioned homelessness (something that you support wholeheartedly) joblessness, starvation, all of which can be much improved by simply allowing the government to actually work for the people. the education system has been hijacked. but not by left wing liberals but rather by knuckle dragging "conservatives" that don't want the truth to be told about anything that may expose what a bunch of lying hypocrites that they are. and surprise! it's working because 40 some % of the people are buying it. not because they believe it but because they are afraid. a constant state of fear permeates everything & must be perpetuated at all times because if anyone lets up for a few minutes the charade will be exposed for it's phoniness. the manufactured crises are happening constantly. they usually have 1 thing in common. they are all fixable but they must not be fixed because the perpetrators would then lose their power over us. just think for a second. if the main things that are being argued about in congress about infrastructure, voting rights, healthcare, civil rights would be enacted we wouldn't need congress to argue about everything & corporations wouldn't have to keep bribing them all to keep everything in turmoil. but as for covidism i guess that you'll believe in it because that is what you want to believe. there is just 1 problem. covid is real & if you catch it you may die. that's where your freedom will lead. the good news is that no one will miss you.

This was a good except for the last part highlighted--which has no part in an intelligent response such as this is.

Ridiculous tweet---2020 was the pandemic and of course the GDP plunged, as it did in EVERY country.  Trump did not force the shutdown of the economy--individual States mandated it, thus causing the economy to collapse.
