00:00:00.000 Hey, it's Jeremy Boren, co-CEO and God King of The Daily Wire.
00:00:03.220 I don't usually like to interrupt your regular programming, but this is important.
00:00:07.320 All right.
00:00:08.020 Today, Joe Biden announced he was going to use the full force of the federal government
00:00:11.480 to mandate that all companies with 100-plus employees force their workers to be vaccinated
00:00:16.320 or subject them to weekly tests for COVID-19.
00:00:19.640 I just got off the phone with our lawyers, and I just want to reiterate something that
00:00:22.720 I already said today on Twitter.
00:00:24.620 No.
00:00:25.540 The Daily Wire does have more than 100 employees, but we won't be enforcing Joe Biden's
00:00:29.640 unconstitutional and tyrannical vaccine mandate.
00:00:32.600 That's it.
00:00:33.340 We'll use every tool at our disposal, including legal action, to resist.
00:00:37.580 Biden's ultimatum will impact over 80 million private sector workers.
00:00:41.460 Companies that refuse to comply will face up to $14,000 in fines for every single violation.
00:00:47.460 So I'm sure most companies will probably just do it.
00:00:49.920 They don't have much choice.
00:00:51.420 We won't.
00:00:52.760 It's not that we're anti-vaccine.
00:00:54.440 I'm personally very pro-vaccine.
00:00:55.820 I think the COVID vaccines are probably the greatest scientific achievement so far in
00:00:59.820 the 21st century.
00:01:01.000 And I think the speed at which they were created may be Trump's greatest achievement as president.
00:01:05.320 They seem to do a pretty good job preventing hospitalization and a great job preventing
00:01:08.940 death from COVID-19.
00:01:10.520 That's terrific.
00:01:11.400 If I were a dictator, I'd probably make you get it. 0.81
00:01:14.100 But I'm not a dictator.
00:01:15.480 And neither is Joe Biden.
00:01:17.020 He has no right to impose this burden on American businesses.
00:01:20.200 How are we supposed to pay for it?
00:01:21.300 What are we going to do with all these new liabilities that we incur from injecting ourselves
00:01:25.180 into the private health decisions of our employees?
00:01:28.040 More to the point, he has no right to impose this burden on the American people.
00:01:31.660 It's anti-science and it's totalitarian and we cannot comply with it.
00:01:35.900 I say anti-science because the mandate contains no exceptions for those in low-risk demographic 1.00
00:01:40.560 groups.
00:01:41.100 There's no exceptions for those with natural immunity.
00:01:43.680 Also, there's no taking into account the fact that these vaccines are pretty effective.
00:01:47.760 So if you're vaccinated, congratulations, you're at low risk from COVID-19, whether
00:01:52.820 your neighbor's vaccinated or not.
00:01:54.740 And that's good news, since your vaccinated neighbor can still transmit the damn disease. 0.95
00:01:59.440 And I say it's tyrannical because using unelected bureaucratic machinery like OSHA to force small
00:02:04.900 businesses into becoming the vaccine and testing enforcement arm of the federal government is
00:02:09.820 definitionally anti-democratic.
00:02:12.060 It marks a dramatic break with our constitutional order.
00:02:15.040 According to Reuters, 75% of American adults are already vaccinated.
00:02:20.880 At least they've already received one dose of the vaccine.
00:02:23.280 And 53%, according to the CDC, are fully vaccinated.
00:02:26.920 So people who want the COVID vaccine already have it.
00:02:30.660 And those who don't want it shouldn't have to get it because it's a free country.
00:02:35.680 It's not your job to protect me from me.
00:02:37.980 And you already have the tools to protect yourself from me.
00:02:40.560 So Joe Biden has no compelling reason to encroach on our liberties, other than he just doesn't
00:02:45.840 like what we do with them.
00:02:47.160 Well, guess what?
00:02:48.040 Joe Biden isn't your mom.
00:02:49.820 The government isn't your mom.
00:02:51.580 And your employer sure as hell isn't your mom. 0.96
00:02:54.000 We've already watched for over a year and a half as Americans have ceded liberty after
00:02:58.500 liberty to wannabe tyrants like Anthony Fauci.
00:03:01.400 They broke our economy.
00:03:02.780 They locked us in our homes.
00:03:04.120 They destroyed our supply chains.
00:03:05.720 They crushed our small businesses.
00:03:07.060 They masked our children enough.
00:03:09.860 That is enough.
00:03:12.840 So the answer is no.
00:03:14.520 No, the Daily Wire won't be enforcing Joe Biden's petty tyranny.
00:03:17.840 We've already retained legal counsel and we're prepared to go to battle with this administration
00:03:21.620 to put an end to their unconstitutional bullshit.
00:03:24.740 We hope other people and other businesses will join us.
00:03:27.060 If they do, great.
00:03:28.220 If they don't, that's fine too.
00:03:30.120 There's got to be a line.
00:03:31.340 And for us, this is it.
00:03:33.040 So Joe, hard pass. 0.92
