Summary
Workers across the globe are being fired, suspended, and laid off because they refuse to submit to government mandates to get the so-called "cocaine and immunosuppressive " jab. This is complete insanity, and we need to fight back.

This is John Henry Weston for LifeSite News. Welcome friends to this very important conference
00:00:04.980
which we will hear first-hand testimony from those fired for freedom, from medical professionals
00:00:11.680
pointing out the unreasonableness of these actions, from lawyers fighting for the rights
00:00:16.360
of those who are bravely fighting not only for their own rights but also for the good of society
00:00:22.100
in the future, for our children to live free of tyranny which now threatens to envelop the whole
00:00:27.700
world. Around the globe cases are exploding of workers not only in healthcare but in all fields
00:00:34.800
being fired, suspended without pay, laid off because they, for a host of reasons, refuse to submit to
00:00:42.580
the taking of the COVID jab being mandated by governments and employers without justification
00:00:47.540
or reason. You know the insanity of the jab mandate policies is evident especially in the jab mandates
00:00:54.620
for like telehealth and other employees who work remotely from their own homes but are nonetheless
00:01:00.880
fired from their jobs for not getting the COVID jab even though it's impossible for them as remote
00:01:07.900
employees to transmit any disease let alone COVID. So it is the same with university and college students
00:01:16.420
attending classes via Zoom who are forced out of their universities and colleges. Why? For refusing
00:01:23.220
the so-called vaccine. This is complete insanity. But here we are in an insane time that sees competent,
00:01:31.940
loyal, hard-working employees being fired and suspended without pay for refusing to consent to a demand to
00:01:39.120
violate their bodily integrity for refusing to bow to an unwanted, unneeded, unethical, and in fact immoral
00:01:46.780
medical intervention. Things are so extreme that just this week New York City issued mandates requiring
00:01:55.380
all private sector employees to become fully vaccinated with two shots in order to access restaurants,
00:02:01.260
gyms, entertainment venues, and even get this, requiring young children ages 5 to 11 to show proof of
00:02:09.080
vaccination to enter public spaces as of December 14th next week. Look, as you know, when things reach
00:02:18.420
such a fever pitch, this total craziness, when all rationality is thrown out the window, you know that
00:02:26.200
the time is near for collapse. Just like animals when they fight, they fight the hardest when they're about
00:02:32.660
to die. And so too politicians become the most extreme when they are about to suffer defeat. And it is
00:02:40.000
surely seeming that defeat is coming. As true heroes across the globe fight back, standing up for their
00:02:47.420
own rights, for those of others, rights to medical freedom, rights to bodily integrity, rights to
00:02:52.760
conscientious objection. A Toronto paramedic on unpaid leave for refusing the COVID shots has witnessed
00:03:00.000
firsthand their negative effects. She said that her city of Toronto in Canada faces a critical ambulance
00:03:06.840
shortage as a result of municipal vaccine mandates. Her name is Scarlett Martin, and she's a member of,
00:03:16.100
and she's actually, she's a mother of four. And by the way, in the past was awarded an exemplary
00:03:22.340
service medal for her work. She warned that the city of Toronto Ambulance Service is brutally
00:03:27.660
short-staffed. She said that the last week, the last weekend she worked there, there were times,
00:03:34.760
and this is a direct quote, it was night shift over the weekend when several locations had no ambulances
00:03:41.520
to send. Response times are through the roof. It's bad. It will have a huge impact on survivability
00:03:48.340
and lives lost, end quote. And it's not only those in healthcare that are seeing through the charade
00:03:55.120
of a mandated vaccine. The geniuses over at Google are also fighting back. A group of 600 Google
00:04:02.420
employees has written a manifesto demanding that the tech giant management immediately rescind a COVID
00:04:08.940
shot mandate for its employees. And what I love to see is that it's not only the unvaccinated fighting
0.82
00:04:15.680
the mandates, there are all sorts of vaccinated men and women standing up for the freedom for their
00:04:21.220
friends and family, for their colleagues, for their fellow citizens who choose not to be vaccinated.
00:04:26.260
And it's starting to work, but we need to stay strong. Just last week, the Biden administration
00:04:32.700
centers for Medicare and Medicaid services announced, and this was actually just last Thursday,
00:04:38.840
they announced that it will temporarily halt the enforcement of its vaccine mandate for healthcare
00:04:45.740
workers, pending appeal of a federal injunction blocking the measure. On September the 9th,
00:04:53.660
President Joe Biden announced that a series of vaccine mandates for the public were going into
00:04:58.640
effect for private sectors alike, including one with no testing option for around 17 million healthcare
00:05:05.400
workers at medical facilities that receive Medicare and Medicaid funding. So far, 22 states are suing the
00:05:13.580
administration over the move across two different joint suits. So we need to stay strong right now.
00:05:20.780
We need to stay strong. We need to push back. We need to be there to support our brothers and sisters
00:05:25.980
who have lost their jobs and need help right now. So we can all triumph over the tyranny that aims to
00:05:34.020
banish our hard-won freedom. Look, today, on December the 7th, we are on the eve of the feast in the
00:05:42.820
Catholic Church known as the Immaculate Conception. It's the feast celebrated to commemorate God's
00:05:47.300
sparing of the Blessed Virgin Mary from original sin. It was in preparation for her to become the
0.72
00:05:53.540
unstained mother of the Savior, the divine vessel that would bring the Christ into this world.
00:05:58.820
You know, and as we all prepare now for Christmas, these are all thoughts in our hearts. But despite
00:06:06.400
all of that preparation that God did, that Almighty God Himself would not violate Mary's free will,
00:06:14.400
her bodily integrity. In the most well-known verses in all of Scripture, really, verses that we are
00:06:20.700
commemorating right now in the lead-up to Christmas, God Almighty asks, through the angel Gabriel, a poor
00:06:28.160
young girl, or young woman, to accept His offer to her to be the mother of the Savior. We read in the
00:06:36.640
book of Luke, in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth
00:06:43.120
to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph of the house of David, and the virgin's name was
00:06:48.200
Mary. And he came to her and said, Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. But she was greatly
00:06:53.980
troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel
00:06:59.660
said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary, for thou hast found favor with God, and behold, thou wilt conceive
00:07:05.000
and bear in thy womb a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus. He will be great, and be called the Son of
00:07:11.460
the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the
00:07:16.900
house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end. And then it says that Mary said
00:07:23.340
to the angel, How can this be, since I have no husband? And the angel replied to her, The Holy
00:07:29.360
Spirit will come upon thee, the power of the Most High will overshadow you, therefore the child to be
00:07:34.860
born of thee shall be called Holy, the Son of God. And behold, thy kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age
00:07:41.440
has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month with her who is called barren, for with God
00:07:47.560
nothing will be impossible. And then Mary gives her great answer, Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord,
00:07:54.220
be done to me according to thy word. And the angel then departed from her. You know, the church has
00:07:59.940
always placed so much emphasis on Mary's yes, on what is called her fiat, as the moment on which
00:08:08.040
salvation history hinged, as Saint Pope John Paul II wrote in his 1987 encyclical Redemptoris Mater
00:08:16.460
on the Blessed Virgin Mary. And I quote from him, The Father of Mercies willed that the consent
00:08:24.280
of the predestined mother should precede the incarnation. And Mary gives this consent after
00:08:31.860
she has heard everything the messenger has had to say. She says, Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord,
00:08:37.480
let it be done to me according to your word. This fiat of Mary, says Pope Saint John Paul II,
00:08:44.600
let it be done to me, was decisive on the human level for the accomplishment of the divine mystery.
00:08:52.320
Pope Saint John Paul II goes on to say in the same encyclical, The mystery of the incarnation was
00:08:57.720
accomplished when Mary uttered her fiat, Let it be to me according to thy word, which made possible,
00:09:04.940
as far as it depended upon her in the divine plan, the granting of her son's desire. End quote.
00:09:12.180
That desire, of course, was to be our Savior, to come to earth to redeem us. So the need of Mary's
00:09:19.780
consent to bear the Son of God is memorialized even over a thousand years ago in the writings of
00:09:28.140
Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in one of his famous homilies on Our Lady, where he preached poetically
00:09:33.660
addressing the Blessed Virgin Mary. And he said, quote, Say the word and receive the word. Give yours and
00:09:41.080
conceive God's. Breathe one fleeting word and embrace the everlasting word. Blessed Virgin, open your heart
00:09:48.140
to faith, your lips to consent, and your womb to your Creator. Behold, the long desired of all nations
00:09:55.460
is standing at the door and knocking. End quote. Knocking. The Almighty is asking the permission
00:10:04.900
to enter the womb of one of his own creatures, because he will not violate his gift of free will.
00:10:12.500
The fulfillment of Mary's yes is seen in her own canticle of rejoicing, known as the Magnificat,
00:10:18.880
in which Mary says, My soul magnifies the Lord. My spirit rejoices in God my Savior, because he has
00:10:23.840
regarded the humility of his handmaid. For behold, from henceforth all generations will call me
00:10:29.380
blessed, for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name. Look, if Almighty God
00:10:36.860
would not violate the bodily integrity of a poor young girl in Nazareth, how dare anyone think to do so
00:10:44.860
today. We must stand strong. We must stand and support those fired for freedom right now, so that
00:10:53.880
we can bring freedom back to our lands, freedom for ourselves, freedom for our neighbors, for our
00:10:59.620
children, and for our grandchildren. LifeSite is so proud to sponsor this Truth for Health Foundation
00:11:11.520
We have been warning everyone who would listen and attempting to build up alternative platforms
00:11:16.920
to continue to reach you. We have established ourselves on all sorts of platforms I'm going
00:11:22.740
to explain in a minute, but the most important thing to do is come direct to LifeSiteNews.com,
00:11:28.440
because there we will always be. But we've also established ourselves on platforms like Parler
00:11:34.440
and MeWe, and our videos can be found on Rumble as well. We would love to see each of you on those
00:11:41.160
platforms too, as they are not censoring or suppressing the truth that we are sharing every
00:11:46.260
single day. More than these alternative social media platforms, we highly encourage you to subscribe
00:11:52.720
to our email newsletter. We have really built up a large list of loyal readers on our email marketing
00:11:59.040
platform. And we have prepared several backup plans for, well, I want to say if, but it's really when,
00:12:06.620
we are removed from our current platform as well. Additionally, I really encourage you, as I said
00:12:12.900
before, to make it a regular habit to go directly to LifeSiteNews.com. Make it your homepage. While all of
00:12:20.840
these different platforms are an excellent way to curate your news, going directly to our website means
00:12:26.820
that you will never encounter any censorship or sudden loss of LifeSite News reporting. Here's the
00:12:32.800
thing. We will never stop sharing the truth. We founded this organization with the mission to be
00:12:39.840
the life, family, and culture source for men and women who seek to know the truth. We have established
00:12:46.720
a track record of honest reports, and this will never stop, even with censorship happening around the
00:12:54.100
globe. Again, I'm encouraging you to join us on Parler, MeWe, Rumble, and on our email list. You can find
00:13:02.160
all the direct links in the description of this video. May God bless you and keep you, and we are so
