Justice Thomas Just Asked A COVID Question That Will Totally…

The U.S. Supreme Court January 7, 2022, held oral arguments on whether to allow the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s vaccine mandates to go into effect while appeals are heard in the courts of appeals.

As expected the liberal justices seemed more open to Biden’s unconstitutional vaccine mandates. The three liberal justices on the court expressed clear approval for the administration’s rules in both areas.

It’s scary to think fake news COVID “fear porn” has permeated SCOTUS.

But thank god we still have a right-thinking judge, Justice Thomas on the high court and there’s no amount of propaganda or “fear porn” that can break through his tough armor.

This high court judge knows what he’s doing, and the question he asked was a shot fired at Joe and Big Pharma.

According to National Law Review:

Several justices focused on the applicability of the Major Questions Doctrine. Justice Gorsuch specifically noted that while the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act of 1970 gives OSHA broad powers to impose safety and health regulations in the workplace, Congress clearly did not contemplate the possibility of a pandemic raging across the country and affecting 80 million workers when it passed the law in 1970. Justice Kagan countered by noting that the OSH Act gives the agency broad authority to impose workplace safety and health regulations, but that does not make it vague. Courts should not require Congress to reauthorize this authority, she said, solely because the ETS “is a big deal.” Justice Kavanaugh tested both sides on this issue. Given that COVID-19 is undoubtedly an emergency, he asked the challengers, “Why shouldn’t we defer to the government” in its efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19 in the workplace? But he also noted to the solicitor general, representing OSHA, that the OSH Act could be read as vague or cryptic on whether it squarely addressed the agency’s authority to address vaccines.

Another issue of focus was whether OSHA had the authority to regulate hazards that also exist outside the workplace. Several justices expressed skepticism over this potential limitation on OSHA’s authority.

In a marathon hearing lasting more than 3.5 hours, all justices peppered the advocates with a wide variety of questions.

Justice Clarence Thomas hearing arguments on the vax-or-test mandate: asks “is the vaccine the only way to treat Covid?”

The answer from the Biden Administration was yes, it is the most effective way.

Thomas reminded the court that OSHA regulates employers, not employees. He noted that “…the vaccines could have significant health consequences.”

Justice Thomas suggested a danger could become so acute in the country that it reaches a point where the government can regulate it in the workplace.
