If you don't comply to the federal mandate, you'll get fired. Will Dan Crenshaw pay your mortgage or rent? Methinks not.


By John Amato — December 19, 2021

On Friday, a federal appeals court reinstated the Biden administration’s vaccine and testing requirement for private businesses, which affects about 80 million American workers.

CNBC reports, "The ruling by the 6th U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati lifted a November injunction that had blocked the rule from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which applies to businesses with at least 100 workers."

On that same night, Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas told his hundreds of thousands followers on Twitter not to follow the court's ruling..........................

1. Pro-COVID and Anti-life

Loser, wish he could be held accountable.

[BigmanPigman]

21. I wish something worse...

I know if he were to die of Covid I would not shed a tear.

[secondwind]

2. God, I hate these people.............

[Alexander Of Assyria]

24. In a better world we would give them humane mental health treatment,

And hundreds of thousands of people who clicked a button on Twitter are not followers…they r social media clickers. Not same thing in my encyclopedia.

Use English words properly ffs,…journalist?

[AZLD4Candidate]

3. Poliitcs is not a zero-sum game, fellas.

[Deuxcents]

4. Why is he not held accountable?

Do not comply with court mandates? There are no repercussions? What can the House do if federal laws can’t/don’t ?

[Doodley]

5. He's inciting people not to follow the law. Isn't that illegal?

[reACTIONary]

18. I don't know, didn't...

... MLK advocate civil disobedience? Which is advocating breaking the law. Advocating civil disobedience isn't against the law, is it?

[Farmer-Rick]

26. Civil disobedience is illegal no matter who does it

Advocates of MLK went to jail, were fined, beaten by cops and arrested for their civil disobedience. By its very nature civil disobedience is illegal. Otherwise it would be called obedience.

Now, if it is moral or not is another issue.

[reACTIONary]

32. An act of civil disobedience is illegal...

.... ADVOCATING civil disobedience is not.

In answer to the question "inciting people not to follow the law. Isn't that illegal?" I would say no, at least not in this circumstance.

[Farmer-Rick]

35. It is a much more complex subject then it appears

In some cases advocating civil disobedience is illegal like incitement. In criminal law, incitement is the encouragement of another person to commit a crime. Depending on the jurisdiction, some or all types of incitement may be illegal. Where illegal, it is known as an inchoate offense, where harm is intended but may or may not have actually occurred.

So, in some cases when an average person would think of it as merely encouragement to civil disobedience, it is actually considered incitement.

[reACTIONary]

36. What's your opinion in this case? He said...

... "Do not comply". Setting aside that non-compliance would probably not be crime (you get fired, not arrested) would this be incitement? Seems like he is expressing a negative opinion or at most civil disobedience of an excusable sort.

[Farmer-Rick]

37. But the mandate applies to the bussiness not the employees

The government makes the business say to their workers "get vaccinated for free or we will test you regularly." And the employee says no I won't get vaccinated and I won't let you test me. Then the corporation says I am required to fire you.

Now it seems to me the employee can say no to both shots and testing and then get fired and that seems to be the end of it. So yeah, the worker can do that and I see it as more of a workplace issue and not really civil disobedience. So, no I don't see it as illegal.

Now if the business decides they will not fire the refusing worker then that would be an actual OSHA violation. Since it's an administrative policy, it is not civil disobedience and administrative consequences would apply like fines, warnings or notices on the business. Since I don't see businesses and corporations as people, I really don't see this as civil disobedience.

25. Hate speech is legal in America. Not anywhere else in western world, but America special.

Nothing more hateful than wanting people to get sick and die, but what you going to do about it…have same kind of hate speech laws that work perfectly fine in many nations, and look ma, no violation of any freedom!

[reACTIONary]

33. It may be stupid speech, but telling people ...

... not to get vaccinated is certainly not hate speech, by any definition applied in any where in the western world.

Any prohibition on "hate speech" is a limitation on freedom of speech, and, IMHO, an unjustified limitation on freedom of speech. As far as I'm concerned that is a fundamental violation of a fundamental freedom.

[Midnight Writer]

6. If Dan Crenshaw is not already vaccinated, I will eat my hat.

They are using people as expendable pawns.

The GOP has determined that the more people die, the better their own political fortunes.

It turns my stomach.

[marybourg]

7. Two of the hallmarks of our democracy that we took

the most pride in: peaceful transfer power, even after a heavily contested election, and complying with Supreme Court orders, even when you disagreed with it, have now been trashed by the publican party.

[greatauntoftriplets]

8. Why does Dan Crenshaw think he can or can't tell me to do anything?

He can go to hell.

[texasfiddler]

9. He has an eye for right wing crazy politics.

[niyad]

15. Snicker.

[moose65]

34. Haha

I see what you did there......

[Orrex]

10. I am very confident that people and businesses will ignore the mandate regardless

Because a great many people are, after all, ignorant racist fuckheads, and a great many businesses will pander to the ignorant racist fuckheads to the exclusion of anyone else.

100-person businesses will likely comply out of basic corporate survival mode, but very few small businesses will elect to follow the mandate, and many will broadcast that fact proudly.

[former9thward]

29. The mandate only applies to those of 100 or more.

Small businesses are not required to follow it.

[Orrex]

31. Yeah, that's kind of what I said

More's the pity. The mandate should apply to all businesses with more than 1 employee.

[Walleye]

11. When OSHA makes these rules, it makes it easier on the business owners, don't have to be only one

For the most part businesses like it when the government sets the rules. So they don’t have to be the only one looking like villains

[Farmer-Rick]

27. Well not always

I remember from my history books the slogan around the 1900s "Factories are made for children and children are made for factories."

That was when the filthy rich wanted to keep child labor rules and other safety precautions out of factories. There were so many dismemberings caused by factory work, whole towns looked like they had been involved in mass battles or wars.

The filthy rich usually always fight safety requirements being imposed on their favorite profit extraction systems.

[Walleye]

28. No doubt part of the reason OSHA was created

[Farmer-Rick]

30. So True

Good point.

[Lovie777]

12. GQP are the party of death . . ..

[sakabatou]

13. He might as well announce the he wants people to die.

[BlueIdaho]

14. Where does he stand on enhancing unemployment?

He might as well be saying - Quit your jobs and stand in the bread line.

[paleotn]

16. His conduct besmirches his own service.

He lost an eye for nothing. Pathetic, really. He disgusts me.

[lonely bird]

17. Republicans have no agenda beyond the destruction of America

This is what they want, period.

Anyone who votes Republican supports the destruction of America, period.

[IronLionZion]

19. There is a labor shortage for jobs no one is applying for

so these folks who get fired for noncompliance can always work in sawmills, meatpacking, or restaurant service.

Joe Manchin must be creating tons of mining jobs by blocking BBB so these folks can dig coal.

Inflation might be a bit worse for folks who lose their income.

[ancianita]

23. This.

[Crowman2009]

20. The Navy SEALS seem to be chock full of Trump humping a-holes.

Who the hell would want be around them 24/7?

[Paladin]

38. Anybody stupid enough to take advice from Dan Crenshaw deserves the consequences. (nt)

[ProfessorGAC]

39. As Of Yesterday...

Over 200 million people are fully vaxxed. More than 60% of the total population (and there's still an age group ineligible) is fully vaxxed. Another 40 million have had the first shot. Finally, 63 million people have been boosted.
So, this intransigence on the part of morons like Crenshaw seems to be falling on deaf ears, aside from the 20% that will never get vaxxed, and don't need his approval or support.
He just spitting into the wind, and it's damned convenient because that fool is vaccinated.
Besides, many companies decided to do it without regard to the mandate, because it's good business.
Of course, a guy who worships a business failure like TFG wouldn't understand the first thing about good business.
