Breaking Down the Train Crash & Toxic Chemicals Spill in Ohio

"Going back to this other weird story that has not gotten a lot of attention, but there was a massive chemical explosion in Ohio and this train disaster even just days later you've got all these fish livestock family pets dropping dead. And so this scientist has a theory about what happened. Cut 18. This hasn't been getting a lot of coverage and the coverage that has been getting hasn't been very good, so let's talk about the trail derailment in east Palestinian Ohio. These Palestinians about an hour north of Pittsburgh almost halfway to Cleveland. Norfolk Southern has a real line that goes right through town in this derailment happened right on the edge outside of town on the border of PA in Ohio. But the cars that crash fine for them contain vinyl chloride. It's a monomer that used to make PVC. The reporting on this has gotten vinyl chloride confused with polyvinyl chloride, the polymer made out of vinyl chloride. Now the reason that this distinction is really important is vinyl chloride is very hazardous and very flammable. Polyvinyl chloride is a plastic that's used in like everything. The other thing about final chloride is that it boils at 8°F. So it shipped in its liquid form, meaning that when these trains crashed and they started leaking, they weren't just leaking liquid, but they were spewing boiling gas. So vinyl chloride is really toxic. Osha has the permissible limit of how much you can be exposed to it during an 8 hour shift as a one PPM part per million. Average over 8 hours. So prior to this, the biggest spill of this chemical was in New Jersey, where one train car in about 23,000 gallons of vinyl chloride were spilled, but it didn't catch on fire. Now this crash in Ohio has 5 training cars. These kinds of tanker cars can carry between 25 and 33,000 gallons. Let's call it 250 to 250,000 pounds of vinyl chloride.

West Virginia Vs. The EPA

"Now let's move to West Virginia versus EPA, 'cause I wanted to thank you personally. People have no idea. I wrote a Washington Post column about the 6 month. This is the most important freedom case in the last three. I think Dobbs was big. Dobbs was huge. For saving life. But for saving freedom of people who were already alive, West Virginia versus EPA is, would you explain to people what that was about and how you succeeded? You want to the biggest cases we've seen in our lifetime. And here's why at the end of the day, a lot of people talked about the fact that all Morrissey went after the Biden climate agenda and we halted it on the regulatory side and some of the mandates still trying to put in place. But what this really, this case was really about essence, was in our country, you have a question. Who gets to decide the major questions of the day? Should it be unelected? Bureaucrats or should it be the people's representatives in Congress? And I think that the court was very clear that when you have matters of vast economic and political significance, it's, of course, critical for the Congress to make the decisions as to how it's going to proceed and not leave this to the unelected bureaucrats who reached out into their bag of tricks, pull out, twist to the ambiguous praise and say, we're going to reorder the nation's power grid or we're going to put broad new fashion mandates in place that osha and in other federal agencies, the CDC eviction,

Why Are Republicans Afraid to Exercise Their Power?

"You have managed to use your position as an attorney general to actively exercise its powers in the pursuit of conservative objectives. And we see so often, Republicans who are afraid to exercise the power that they've been granted by the voters, the Missouri voters ask you to go out and defend their interests and you've been doing that in court. Why do you think so many Republicans don't follow your example and do what we sent them to do using the powers we entrusted them with? Well, I think it's true with a lot of office holders. Sometimes I like going to the ribbon cuttings and giving the speeches and those things are sometimes more comfortable. But when our countries on the line, which it is right now, there's no question about it. I mentioned what the Democrats want to do. They're two votes away from doing all of that, by the way. The most probably tenuous time in our nation's history in modern history as far as changing the republic fundamentally forever, right? And they also want to teach our kids to despise America. I mean, they are playing for keeps. And so we've been on the front lines fighting these important fights. I mean, we talked about that osha vaccine mandate. What that meant for the massive expanse of an agency that was meant to make sure forklifts people they backed up somehow compelling a medical procedure on a 100 million

What's in Putin's Playbook

"First one, it does seem like Putin's got a playbook here. And this is the Georgian war from 2008. It seems like he's following it almost to a T can you explain what that means and what you think this could mean for the next few days? Well, in the case of Georgia, Russia was doing exactly the same thing they're doing now with a region called South Ossetia, which is very similar to these new independent republics the Putin claims exist in Ukraine. And the Russians did the same exact steps. They held huge military exercises. They massed troops and right before the invasion began, they were criticized for this. And it was asked why are you doing all these troop maneuvers, get these troops out of there? And they did the exact same thing. The Russians said, we're pulling them back right now. They're heading home as we speak. Ha ha, you paranoid westerners. And then a couple days later the attack with them. They just marched across the border and did the exact same thing that they're doing now. And they justified it in exactly the same way. They said they had to move into south osha because the ethnic Russians who lived there were being oppressed and could be subjected to genocide. It Russia didn't move in and protect them. That's exactly what they're seeing now with respect to the Ukraine. And it's also what they said in 2014 when they went after Crimea.

Ryan Bangert of Alliance Defending Freedom on the Latest Supreme Court Rulings

"So our friend Ryan bengard from the alliance defending freedom joins us now, Ryan, welcome to the program. Eric, thank you for having us on. Well, listen, people need to know that the alliance defending freedom ADF. You guys are heroes, unfortunately, you're very important at this time in American history. We need folks like you. Fighting in the courts for the constitution. So we're great to we're grateful for what you all do and we're grateful for you in particular today for coming online because many people want to know what happened in the Supreme Court in the Supreme Court recently with the two rulings. So for people who really haven't followed the ruling specifically the one about the one that was struck down, I guess it was 6 to three. And then the one that was not struck down, tell us a little bit about those rulings. Sure. So back in September, President Biden announced that he was going to require the federal agencies to mandate vaccination. And his chief of staff even called this a workaround knowing that federal authority wasn't there to implement these requirements. And so the agencies, the federal agencies, began going one by one and requiring vaccination in areas that they could control. And the occupational safety and health administration, which is part of the Department of Labor, issued a requirement back in November that all private employers with 100 or more employees require those employees to be vaccinated or if they chose not to get vaccinated. They had to be tested every single week and they had a mask up if they were unvaccinated. So they sweeping mandate covering over 80 million American employees. Simultaneously, the center for Medicaid and Medicare services CMS issued a mandate requiring healthcare workers at 15 different types of facilities that receive either Medicare or Medicaid funds to be vaccinated with only very narrow exemptions. So that covered over 10 million workers. So right there, you have almost a 100 million Americans covered by federal mandates. And those were the two mandates that the Supreme Court took up at Earl argument on January 7th and issued decisions last week. The osha mandate, the one that covered the private employees, the 80 plus million private employees was struck down like you said 6 to three. And the Medicare and Medicaid mandate that covered healthcare workers was upheld by a 5 to four

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Joe Biden's ID Hypocrisy

"Congresswoman green, welcome back to America first. Hi, doctor gorka I'm so glad to be on your show today. So the timing couldn't be better, you wanted to impeach Joe Biden day one. He is giving a speech today in Georgia. Which is going to be allegedly about stopping any reforms of voter integrity and the scuttlebutt has it that he will use the phrase. It is a domestic threat to try and stop election fraud in America. This means congresswoman Greene after January 6th, they're not taking their foot off the gas that actually doubling down, correct? Oh, absolutely. This is going to increase, you know, Joe Biden, who has placed unconstitutional mandate through osha on employees and companies with employees at a hundred or more. He cares so much about vaccine ID that he's made this mandate a huge issue, but yet they want to wipe out better ID. Like you shouldn't be able to show and I need a boat. That's what Democrats want. They want to anyone to be able to mail in a ballot without even showing who they are, but yet they want to impose a vaccine ID for people to be able to pursue life, liberty and happiness, you know, things like working a job to provide for their family, going to a restaurant concert game, private club, Jim, the stay healthy and protect themselves from COVID-19.

"From COVID Now that the vaccine mandates is a goner Osha itself the occupational safety and health administration estimated that that policy had to stay in effect would have saved 6500 lives Now the policy is gone But the court ruled that the government overstepped its bounds there The other side of the decision was one that let stand another vaccine mandate in healthcare facilities that receive federal funding through Medicare and Medicaid That's tens of thousands I think 75,000 facilities millions of workers that'll help on the politics Dmitry The country is extremely divided and the Trumpist political enemies of the white household just put it that way have really invested a lot in trying to undermine the recovery from the pandemic I think that's pretty clear if you watch prime time right wing news coverage especially on Fox It is pretty much anti vaccine and pretty much anti mask So in that sense for them maybe it's a victory 62% of the population is vaccinated So you know the mandate itself pulled relatively in a popular way So what's the hit on Biden politically I think it adds to the sense that this administration is treading water or on the skids They haven't had a lot of successes they're not having success legislatively in any sense They're not having success is with this mandate on the vaccines They have muddled and confused the messaging on masks and vaccinations especially with the omicron variant So they're definitely is a political effect I don't know that there's an electoral effect necessarily except it probably does add to the perception that the Biden White House just doesn't have any traction right now You were talking about treading water and on the skids and that is apparent again as we look at voting rights legislation not going anywhere Kirsten sinema Joe Manchin the moderate democratic senators not budging from their positions on the filibuster So what might happen now is something smaller or something that those two can agree with and then presumably the rest of the Democrats can It's possible So look it looks like it's dead in the water They decided to take the weekend off come back Tuesday regroup Manchin and cinema had meetings at The White House last night which I think were described as Frank and direct which is political code speak for it didn't go well So they'll come back next week and Chuck Schumer says these bills will be on the floor Now I think it's safe to say the filibuster isn't going to be newt not for voting rights It's not going to happen But I have spent enough years around the Senate to know that when senators start getting behind closed doors and talking about the rules and procedures you can't really predict exactly what's going to happen It's a little bit like there's conclaves in the Sistine Chapel when the Cardinals put the white slips of paper in Don't try to predict exactly what's going to happen until you see the smoke I think it's possible that the Senate winds up altering the rules maybe making it harder or more politically costly to filibuster to try to stem some of the filibuster abuse and the deleterious use of the filibuster that we've seen over the last few years that doesn't mean that it results in voting rights getting passed with 51 votes But you may get to a consensus if you're a rules junkie where senators decide if the filibuster has been abused and they want to just make senators have more of a political investment in blocking something like.

And, you know, is they explain osha has issued an emergency temporary standard requiring that employers collect information about the vaccination status of its employees, although there have been many court challenges this emergency temporary standard is going into effect, therefore we must comply. So the email goes through this whole thing about having to show our proof of vaccination, if not, we can get an exemption, employees who are unvaccinated or do not wish to provide proof of vaccination. There is a hall these protocols for people who don't want to be vaccinated.

"These are on emergency applications basically to try to stop these two requirements Usually the court does not hold a public hearing on that kind of thing It just decides them But instead they spent three and a half hours on this which sort of underscores the importance of the coronavirus and the national debate over this And they looked at the two issues specifically right One for large employers and then the other for the federally funded healthcare workers how did they square those two if they did Well it seems the conservative justices in particular were quite concerned about the osho requirements the ones for large workplaces and seem to think that the government agency osha didn't have the authority to impose such a big requirement Are we expecting a quick decision from the justices on these two cases Well both sides ask for them to move quickly Some of these requirements sort of take effect on Monday although there would likely not be any kind of government action against those who didn't comply if the government wins But I do think that the court will act fairly quickly on this What was the most interesting thing to you in these arguments Interesting the fact that we're sort of right in the middle of this You know justice breyer talked about earlier quarter of a million new cases And so they're talking about rules that were proposed in the fall but sort of every day something new happens about the coronavirus And so the court was acting very much in real time on this And as I say it's not supposed to be about the merit of this It's supposed to be about whether to allow them to go into effect or not while illegal battle continues.

"Four tenths of 1% 41,700 even I'm Charlie peleton Matthew is Bloomberg business flash Charlie we thank you The stat I read today in Greg stores story On the terminal blew me away because I hadn't seen it for so long The CDC says only 62% of the country is fully vaccinated We're still at 62% Just 35% of people have received a booster shot We thought we'd be way beyond 62% by now And it informs the whole debate happening around the president's vaccine or test mandate The osha rule that came before the Supreme Court today would require companies with a hundred employees or more to mandate vaccines or get regular testing For employees the challenge by 26 business groups is led by the national federation of independent business They say osha is overstepping its authority basically in part because Congress did not authorize the agency to do this Scott Keller is an attorney for the federation Here he is in an exchange earlier today with justice Sonia Sotomayor Congress would have to clearly state in a statute if it wanted to give an occupational health agency the power to require employees to get certain medical treatment It's one thing to say There's no requirement here It's not a vaccine mandate It's something totally different And I don't know how much clearer than 6 51 Congress could have been It charges osha with developing innovative methods techniques and approaches to dealing with occupational safety Occupational safety and health issues I don't know how much clearer you can be if you're Congress Getting to the heart of the issue here according to some we bring in Bloomberg Supreme Court reporter Greg store to talk this out Greg thank you for joining us It's great to have you back here as I read through your piece It's important to remind people there are two different rules here What is the employer rule This is for private employers And there's a separate rule that would require shots for workers in nursing homes or other facilities as you write that receive Medicare and Medicaid payments from the government but this will be a single ruling Well we don't know for sure And it could well be too rulings They are two very different cases two different statutes that govern the agencies that issue the rules So we make it two different rulings That separate group 27 states challenging the osha rules say it interferes with states rights as well This is the one led by Ohio with states rights to make their own vaccine policies You know at one point we've been talking about this for so long Greg I think some people think this is already an effect actually because some companies have gone ahead and done this on their own But what is the actual question that the justices are seeking to answer here The actual question is whether this law or whether this rule can go into effect whether osha can start to enforce this rule against companies that aren't moving to either get their employees vaccinated or require that they either get vaccinated or get regular tests and wear masks in the workplace right now that is optional for companies some companies as you said do that There are still many many companies that don't And the reason the business groups are challenging This is they say it would be very expensive and burdensome and would cause a lot of workers to quit Conservative justices skeptical the heart of your story Yes Very much so And that includes the chief justice John Roberts who we often think of as being somewhere in the middle but he is of course a Republican appointee and generally conservative person who doesn't believe the federal government should exceed its authority And that's a core issue here is whether Congress gave osha in one case and CMS is in there for Medicare and Medicaid in the other case whether Congress gave those two agencies the authority to issue this sort of thing In both cases they're kind of broadly worded statutes especially broadly worded in the case of osha And the conservative justices have a tendency not to want federal agencies to overstep their bounds A lot of questions about enforcement today Greg how would that be handled Well osha would be says it wouldn't actually start issuing citations to employers until February The business groups say will be very difficult for them to come up with plans to make sure that they're meeting the requirement that they have testing procedures in place for people who don't want to get vaccinated that they have systems for making sure that for verifying that people have gotten their vaccines that's one of the issues in the cases that until this starts to go into effect it's hard to say exactly how burdensome it will be And of course once it goes into effect the damage if that's how you view this as already been done Would it there'd be like a spot inspection though or something Hey osha's here Grab your vax cards or would companies be required to submit that data by a certain deadline I'm going to have to duck that question because I don't fully know the answer It may not be determined yet Interesting by the way the irony is not lost on me that the two lawyers opposing the Biden rules as you point out solicitor general from Ohio solicitor general from Louisiana both were on the phone today because they have COVID Yes The court has a rule that lawyers arguing are supposed to take a COVID test the day before a PCR test And both of those lawyers did The lawyer from Ohio this lister general there apparently tested positive back closer to Christmas and I spokesperson said that he still tested positive yesterday And Louisiana they didn't explicitly say that's what happened that there was a positive test but they did say that the lawyer didn't take part because of the court's COVID protocols Okay got you At one point justice lido today was asking like God we've got hundreds of documents here all this business can at least give us a few days to consider this I figured it would be at least a few days Greg when do you expect to find out Well it's a good question and I'm certainly wondering whether we could even get something as early as today One thing justice alita was talking about was an administrative stay which is designed to be hey we're not saying one way or the other which way we're leaning but we're just holding everything in place while we have more time to think this through that it's at least a possibility that he raised during the argument And if indeed the court has sort of seamless the case in the argument is leading towards blocking in this rule there may be a real incentive among the conservative justices to go ahead and do that quickly Fascinating Is there a reason for that There was more are there more documents than usual to go through here or more issues to consider A typical case This whole case is unusual The osha rule is there are tens of thousands of pages of administrative record that they could need to go through But this is happening This is not a case where they had the benefit of full briefing Got it We consider a case It's.

The Difference Between Chick-Fil-A and In-N-Out When It Comes to Vaccines

"Boy, we have more tape than we know what to do with, but it's really important, especially for those of you right now that are working for companies that are saying, hey, the osha mandates coming forward. For example, you might work for a worthless company like Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A, which has incredibly overrated food, which is saying to their employees that if they don't get the vaccine mandate, then we're going to fire all the employees. We're going to fire you by early February. I don't know if you guys know that. That's Chick-fil-A's new position. And we've bashed on Chick-fil-A plenty throughout the years. And we'll continue to do so. And that is in great contrast, by the way, to the wonderful In-N-Out burger. We're in and out burger has said we are not mandating vaccines for our employees. We're not mandating vaccines for our customers. We're not doing any of it. Huge contrast. God bless in and out. And I hope God will improve

"Enough states ex post facto, I just made that up. D certified enough votes that Biden drops beneath the two 70 last year. What would happen now? Because I know back then in January, there's this fruity clause this scenario B that the state delegations by party would choose the next president if the Electoral College had failed to come to a two 70. And back then, the GOP had the majority of state party representations by state. So we could have chosen president Trump for a second term. Or they could have chosen Biden. I mean, because that's a very total so what happens if, you know, two months from now, Pennsylvania and Arizona or Michigan or whoever adds up enough, he drops to 70. Where does it leave us as a nation? In a constitutional crisis, which by the way, we are in one already. And we are in one not just because of the election, but also but because the Democrats are trying to harness every possible power that is not in the constitution and they think that their power is unlimited. And that's actually going to be the question this Friday in front of the Supreme Court with the osha mandate.

Is this going to stand once your expectation? You know it's rare to see 27 states in four days. I mean, it's hard to remember. It was only last Thursday that osha promulgated this regulation and already more than half the states in America have rushed to sue. You have a major lawsuit by one of the largest business lobbies in American job creators network. All of them are making the same argument, which is this is an unconstitutional overreach by osha. Ocean is supposed to govern what happens at the workplace, not what happens in your home or with your doctor with other things. And so the first a court to take a look at this, the 5th circuit of appeals, Court of Appeals in Texas, said there was such grave constitutional issues here. It ordered an injunction Sunday, the job creators network asked the a circuit to make that injunction nationwide, freeze it nationwide. That's a clue that these courts see the same issues as

"They wear sheets at night They don't sleep under them. They wear them and so we should be. We should be cautious there. But i should also understand that that the critical theory framework is is more abstract from that. And what the critical theory framework says is that at all times. In all cases you are defined by your skin color and under critical theory. You are derived from western european heritage. You are the most oppressive person on planet earth. Even if you've never pressed anybody in your life because you individually don't matter in critical theory. It is your class certain and the problem with critical theory in tim. Keller really gets to the heart of this is that in the rubric of critical theory. Someone who is black kid never ascend in society because if they do they will be have whiteness attributed to them. And that's the problem. There was a if you recall. And i played this audio several months ago there was a teacher in los angeles california who got pulled over by a hispanic police officer and she started yelling at him that just because he was a police officer didn't mean he was white and he needed to understand that he could never be white even as he was doing a white man's job and that a critical theory framework. That you and i individually are me nothing. it's our race and position in society. That means everything and obviously are racist. Position in society do mean something. But they don't define us permanently and they're not predominant in defining us and that's the problem with critical theory is that it derives from postmodernism and marxism and it seeks to be divide people by class and race back sex. And that's really because you're you're you and i me and we don't shoulder the sins of everyone else on ourselves we're all supposed to make the world better and we're all sinners. We're all born that way. But the collective sins of humanity if we attribute them to each other were never gonna find any sort of racial reconciliation. That's what tim keller gets too. I really do encourage you to read the piece because it also is going to make conservatives mad too because it points out that this libertarian. Non biblical conservative frame of justice isn't really compatible with people who consider themselves a faith as well. It's a it kinda he kind of pokes at everybody And that's actually why. I like it because i don't believe any of us really. Have the purest idea of what justice can be because we all look at everything through the frame of i'm a sinner and i don't wanna be held accountable for my own sins but i'm gonna hold you accountable for years and we all see the world that ashley. So that's it so Read the tim keller. I gotta let you go there. But i appreciate taking the time with me and thank you for that. And yes. I don't hear me say in white people earn oppressors or have never been so what i'm saying what i'm saying. Is that in critical theory. White people always have been always will be and can never not be and that's the problem with critical theory..

"Officials are frustrated with the white house over cove. Nineteen vaccine and testing mandate by julia zorkin. When president joe biden directed the occupational safety and health administration or osha on september ninth to impose strict covert nineteen vaccination and testing protocols on large businesses. The osha employees were ready. It marked the first time in nearly five years that the small agency had the opportunity to fulfill its mission to protect workers across industries from recognized serious hazards but it also highlighted tensions between osho and the white house exposing simmering resentments over how the white house has approached working with the department of labor during the pandemic according to three former top osha officials. It's been a very frustrating. Nine months for osha says former deputy assistant secretary of labor for osha jordan. Bearup referencing a series of instructions from the biden administration. Including the most recent plan for a vaccine and testing mandate. This whole thing was basically thought up in the white house. The emergency temporary standard or e. t. biden directed osha to draft this month will require businesses with one hundred or more employees to require cova nineteen vaccines or weekly testing.

Staff and leaders and do l. staff and leaders would prefer a more comprehensive standard bearer obsess.

"OSHA, according to agency documents, which is a violation of OSHA regulations. The company was fined $20,000 at first, but it was later lowered to just $7000. Republic Services is a multibillion dollar company. Our investigations did analysis shows that OSHA officials often decide not to penalize companies for worker deaths and when they do violations and fines are routinely reduced. In Texas. The average imposed fine is around $6200 you got to remember the fine is not based on the injury. It's based on the violation. Dean Lingo is a former official at the OSHA Regional office in Dallas. It's not intended to measure the worth of somebody's Loss of life or limb or or how seriously were they were injured. Based on just the criteria that the classification In other words, OSHA fines for the violation and doesn't take into account the outcome or the impact a death can have on a family. Before Glen White, another Houston worker died from heat, OSHA records show. It gave Republic Services a lower fine because the company promised to make certain changes, but they follow through on only half of those safety measures. After Glen White died the same pattern. OSHA lowers the fine company promises to change and change doesn't come at least 13 Republic Services employees throughout the country in the last five years have been hospitalized due to heat illness, according to OSHA records. More than half are in Texas. So if finds aren't working. If there's no heat standards to protect workers, what can be done?

And households where there's a child or dependant who qualifies for free or reduced lunch. So so a lot of people who are already able to get some sort of federal assistance can qualify.

"Breaking news station with my report Next. NewsRadio 600 Kogo, This is the Jemayel report. The fight continues. No. Okay, so the Biden administration correctly chose OSHA, not the CDC to impose this vaccine mandate. Uh, now What OSHA claims is that we have authority to regulate workplace conditions to keep people safe, and they do. There's a statute on the books. Um, that allows them to You know, keep employees from being contaminated or exposed to certain chemicals or agents. The word agent is used in the legislation. And so The lawyers. I have talked to say that OSHA can probably define covid as Being exposed to an agent. That could impact your health. But here's where it starts to fall apart. OSHA. Cannot make a case. That Vaccinated Americans are going to be exposed to an agent that will hurt them because the data shows that vaccinated Americans really are not hurt by this covid. This strain of Covid. If you're vaccinated, you will survive. You know, OSHA. Can't just simply say, Well, there is a arrests and so therefore, um, we can regulate. No, no, no, no. There are a standard issue. Standard that you have to meet. To make it absolutely necessary. Supreme Court. Uh, has Previously ruled that OSHA's power. Can only, uh, apply to quote significant risks. Two in employees and that the reforms being demanded the regulation being required is quote reasonably necessary or appropriate. And that's where the legal challenge will first start in saying Look, you're requiring everybody be vaccinated and so really, what you're doing is you're only trying to protect people who are unvaccinated. And if it's unvaccinated, then you now have to look at the nature of the risk. Not In every employer. But in the in the in the workplace itself Here is this is where it's interesting. What the lawyers I've talked to you have argued is that OSHA can't just simply say if you have 100 employees air go therefore you have to adopt this standard. Why, 100? Why not 99? Why not? 50? Why not? Five. What makes 100 so important. And there is no justification for that. My friends. Well, you might say Well, because it's for big companies. Oh, you mean big companies that can afford the fines that can actually implement the reform. Now, a standard like this needs to be workplace specific. So if OSHA had come out and said We are requiring, uh, that employers either vaccine do mandatory vaccinations or verification on testing for any workplace where there are More than X number of unvaccinated individuals working in close proximity with, um, uh other, uh, individuals that have health care problems. If you define it narrowly. Then. The court can actually evaluate whether it's absolutely necessary and whether a proper risk Has been identified. You can't just say 100 employees. Here's another thing that's going to go against the administration when this is challenged. The White House chief of staff. Retweeted, an MSNBC analysts comment, praising Biden for quote finding a workaround to impose a national vaccine mandate. Uh, if this was always about imposing a vax mandate Then that would also get into undermining OSHA's ability to argue with a straight face to the court that this was based upon an inherent risk in certain workplaces and was quote absolutely necessary. A national vaccine mandate is not workplace specific. It's just we seek not to protect workers in the workplace. We seek a vaccine mandate nationally. We're just using your workplace as a means to an end. And that's what they're doing. Interesting how a case can be developed here. To undermine the the method by which Biden is trying to implement the vaccine mandate. Here's another point that I want to bring up Alan Dershowitz, who I consider him a pretty smart guy. He's liberal. But I have appreciated his legal arguments over the years. Uh, he seems to be a principled guy. Dershowitz argued on Newsmax that the federal government Cannot actually enforce this ocean mandate. The federal government can promulgate the ocean mandate. But it's the states that ultimately have police power. Federal government doesn't come in and do workplace inspections and issue finds its the states that take OSHA guidance. And then you know, say we're going to inspect and we're going to enforce on a state level since they have The power of policing. Can you imagine the red state governors? At this point They're going to say we're not going to police this Yes, it It's an ocean mandate or regulation or guidance, but we don't agree with it. Therefore, we won't use our police powers are regulatory inspection regime. Our enforcement protocols to enforce something we don't believe is constitutionally appropriate..

And i don't wanna go to a tropical country right now just this moment quite happy to be way. I am and in nodded lights. Introduce myself while transformational coach and i help people like deeply connect with themselves and understand where they actually really want not just what they think. They went and beheads but really. What is that sold bath. What kind of relationships. They want what environment they wanted. Livan and ben bridge that gap between where they are now and where they want to go want to be. Oh i love it. I love it. I think that that leads on so easily into the conversation of like did you just wake up and running and say this is what i wanna do. 'cause i don't think that's how it usually has worked for me like. How did you decide to get into the world of coaching in helping people with that work. Yeah that's a really good question. Actually i never wanted to be a coach. And i didn't choose this fat without close me and at the same time as long as i can remember myself in salads seven eight years old. I was always counseling. My friends in a group of friends with all this come to my house held hold circles. Women circles back in the day when we're just like twelve and we'd have tea and lemonade..

You know something to be used on projects. Because you're going to have people come in contractors in the cleanup you've all kinds of stuff so please please get yourself shop back. And he kind of we should put up a list. Eric of some teams that we think are good. Now let's do that. Let's do that. We'll put that up on the around. The house online dot com. We'll put it up over there so people can see it in the news section. Let's do that great place for that. So people can take a look at it. Because there are some great vacuums out there and they've had to change over the last few years because osha safety stuff for contractors has changed so much so it's really forced the tool industry to look at things differently and create products that fit that demand which means as consumers. We've got a lot more choices without having to go out and spend thousands of dollars on what used to be one of the commercial half of facts. I mean they're not expensive. I mean there are a couple of hundred bucks. Maybe max if you get the filters with it you know you can get a good deal. You don't want to be in a situation where you've got a flood and now you've got to go out and get these things like this is like a thing that you need for an emergency preventative around the house. You need a good inside vacuum so we could always talk about that another time. Because i'm adamant about vacuuming cleanings..
