Ever since the beginning of COVID, Rand Paul has been fighting for medical freedom.
Fauci said he was crazy because he wanted people to make their own choices.
But now Rand Paul has won one major victory against vaccine mandates.
One of the top fighters against Fauci’s COVID mandates since the beginning of the pandemic has been Sen. Rand Paul.
He has exposed Fauci time and time again in front of the Senate, and has fought tooth and nail against the most egregious mandates that he imposed on the nation.
One of these mandates is the military vaccine mandate. Even though COVID vaccines have nothing to do with our military’s ability to fight overseas, the Biden administration still imposed this mandate on the military just because they could.
Of course, many soldiers would have gotten vaccinated anyway because they wanted to. That is a choice that they are entitled to. There’s nothing wrong with getting vaccinated.
But not everyone wants to get vaccinated against COVID. That is a choice people are entitled to as well, because they have autonomy over their own body.
That’s now how the Biden administration sees it, however. They have been forcing all troops to get vaccinated, or be discharged from the military.
However, after years of Sen. Paul fighting back against this mandate, it may be on the verge of finally getting repealed.
According to Newsmax, “Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., lauded on Newsmax a measure included in the National Defense Authorization Act rescinding COVID-19 vaccine mandates for military service members.”
Paul had this to say: “Last week, 20 Republican senators wrote a letter and said…we will not vote for the defense authorization bill unless they get rid of COVID-19 vaccine mandates in the military.”
Fortunately, that threat from Republican senators was enough to get the vaccine mandate removed from the bill.
Now Biden is furious about the removal of the vaccine mandate.
His press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, had this to say: “What we saw happen on the NDAA as it relates to the vaccine mandate, making sure our troops are prepared and ready for service is a priority. For President Biden, the vaccination requirement for COVID does just that.”
This has become an ideological pet issue for Democrats and Biden. They are obsessed with trying to paint conservatives as “anti-science” just because conservatives believe that people should have a choice about what goes into their body.
Neither Rand Paul nor any other Republican politician is telling people not to get vaccinated. Anyone, including military members, is free to get the vaccine if they feel it is the best decision for them medically.
But to threaten people with the loss of their livelihood over not obeying Biden’s orders to get the vaccine is completely unacceptable.
Many of the worst COVID mandates have thankfully begun to roll back over the past 6 months.
And hopefully the vaccine mandate for military members will be the next one to go, so that our country’s finest young men and women can make their own choices once again.
