Senate Votes Against Measure to Reinstate Troops Kicked Out over COVID Vaccines

American Greatness: On Thursday, the United States Senate overwhelmingly rejected a measure that would have ordered the Department of Defense (DOD) to reinstate military personnel who had been discharged or otherwise separated from their branch due to refusing to take a COVID-19 vaccine.

As reported by the Washington Examiner, the measure was defeated with 54 votes against and just 40 votes in favor. The vote precedes the coming vote on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), an annual bill that funds the DOD. Republicans did manage to score a victory in NDAA negotiations by including a measure that officially ends the military’s COVID vaccine mandate, even despite opposition to the proposal by Joe Biden and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.

The reinstatement measure was championed by Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.), and would have seen the return of about 8,400 service members who were ultimately forced out across all six branches. But Democrats in opposition claimed that such service members were rightfully removed for disobeying an order. MORE

  1. They want to destroy the military and they are succeeding. Of course they want to destroy the country as well. As shown to us by the WEF we will own nothing and WILL be happy.
    What ever happened to “Question Authority”.

  2. Pure treason. When SHTF we’re going to have a military so compromised we won’t stand a chance. Was that the democrat plan all along? If you want a real eye opener, research the die-off which will be a result of the suicide jabs.

  3. The ruling and their logic sure as hell seems like a contradiction to me. As Tony R alludes to, all service personnel should have qualified immunity, even when complying with the most barbaric and unlawful order.

  4. The military getting rid of moral, knowledgeable and experienced warriors.
    The political puppets, as Joint Chiefs of Staff of all Services, sit silently as the organizations they are a part of and supposedly lead are destroyed.
