A federal judge on Monday barred the Defense Department from punishing a group of Navy SEALS who sought a religious exemption to the federal vaccine mandate.
Responding to a lawsuit filed by First Liberty on behalf of the 35 special forces service members, U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor, who pointed out that the Navy had not granted any religious exemptions, issued a preliminary injunction blocking the department from enforcing the mandate.
"The Navy servicemembers in this case seek to vindicate the very freedoms they have sacrificed so much to protect,” O’Connor wrote in the decision. “The COVID-19 pandemic provides the government no license to abrogate those freedoms.”
“There is no COVID-19 exception to the First Amendment," he continued. "There is no military exclusion from our Constitution."
First Liberty General Counsel Mike Berry said the organization was “pleased” with the ruling.
"Forcing a service member to choose between their faith and serving their country is abhorrent to the Constitution and America’s values," he said. "Punishing SEALs for simply asking for a religious accommodation is purely vindictive and punitive. We’re pleased that the court has acted to protect our brave warriors before more damage is done to our national security."
The SEALs, who presently serve at various classified and confidential locations, collectively have more than 350 years of military service, and more than 100 combat deployments. When they inquired about seeking religious accommodation for the vaccine, the Navy informed many of the plaintiffs that they could face court-martial or involuntary separation if they don’t receive the vaccine. Each of their religious accommodation denials appear to be identical, suggesting the Navy is not taking their requests seriously. The Navy also warned some of the plaintiffs that if they sought a religious exemption, the Navy would confiscate their Special Warfare devices—such as the famous SEAL “Trident”—that they proudly wear on their uniforms.

Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said they are “aware of the injunction and are reviewing it.”
How can you mandate a shot that is proven to not work?
Even if a strident pro-American regains executive authority, it will be a long slog mustering out the hundreds of flag officers in each branch who have adopted leftist ideology as their primary motivator, as opposed to defending the nation. The service academies have obviously likewise become infected.
Bravo!!!
Judge didnt mince words did he. Finally some clarity.
RE: How can you mandate a shot that is proven to not work?
OK, I am against vaccine mandates, and I heatedly argue against forcing people to be vaccinated.
But here are some things I observe after nearly a year:
1) Before Omicron, the unvaccinated tend to get infected more than the vaccinated ( not that the vaccinated don’t get infected, but their infection rates are less ).
2) Omicron seems to have changed that and now we are seeing both vaccinated and unvaccinated infected equally ( In fact, in Germany and Denmark, most infections are among the vaccinated ).
3) The one major plus for the vaccines is those who get infected because of being vaccinated, tend not to be seriously ill. In other words, the Covid symptoms are attenuated.
Of course, we still do not know the long term effects of the vaccines as we’ve had just a year to observe it.
Anyone who has served in the military will tell you that you get multiple injections on day 1 of boot camp. You don’t get a choice. I don’t think they can win this one.
If they kill people, they don’t work.
I am confused by your post. If you compare the % people that have been jabbed and the number of jabbed that are hospitalized compared to the % that die, and do the same for the not jabbed the hospitalized jabbed are dying at a higher %.
This has been the case in all the reviews I have seen in Denmark, UK, Scotland, Israel etc. In fact there have been so many of these reports that I no longer consider them news & don’t include them in my daily emailed news digest.
Additionally
Vaccinated exponentially more likely to get re-infected with COVID: A new preprint study from Bangladesh found that among 404 people re-infected with COVID, having been vaccinated made someone 2.45 times more likely to get re-infected with a mild infection, 16.1 times more likely to get a moderate infection, and 3.9 times more likely to be re-infected severely, relative to someone with prior infection who was not vaccinated. Although overall re-infections were rare, vaccination was a greater risk factor for re-infection that co-morbidities!
If you can’t see the difference without help nobody can explain it to you.

Every vaccine I’ve ever gotten, with the possible exception of the flu vaccine, prevents one from contracting a given disease.
The smallpox vaccine prevents smallpox.
MMR prevents Measles, Mumps, and Rubella.
The Shingles vaccine prevents Shingles.
Etc, etc, etc.
One cannot spread smallpox after being vaccinated against smallpox. Same with the others I mentioned.
This COVID vaccine is, in my view, the most unsuccessful vaccine in recorded medical history. It doesn’t prevent the illness. It doesn’t prevent one from spreading the illness.
The, highly tenuous at best, argument that it lessons the severity of COVID is an unprovable assertion. There’s no way to test that statement whatsoever.
When you also consider the possible side effects of it it’s completely reasonable for people to refuse it on those grounds alone, especially if one has recovered from the disease this vaccine is supposed to prevent.

The Feds are ignoring the not working part. They ignore alot when it comes to the mandates.
Tell me what you think the difference might be. Also tell me why you think the courts will decide it’s different. I agree that the current Covid vaccines suck, but I don’t see their suckiness making enough difference to overrule a direct order of the Commander in Chief (or your commanding officer).
The judge’s assertion that the Constitution isn’t suspended while you are in the military is clearly incorrect. The first right you lose is freedom of speech. The UCMJ is the controlling document for military personnel. While you may not lose the right to your choice of religion, you are not allowed to practice it where and when you choose.
Lose the ad hominem and explain your opinion.
“we still do not know the long term effects of the vaccines “
Really. They deemed the “vaccines” safe less than nine months — the length of a full-term pregnancy — before they rolled them out. That, added to the fact that no shots (or tests) are required for the critters crossing the border in droves, says a lot.
Quite right. This preliminary injunction is not a "win" as the article indicates, even if the case is actually successful; at best it can be no more than a "break-even". A win should be marked by a transfer of value to the winner that leaves the winner in a better circumstance than before the contest.
Our political realities are exacerbated by the fact that when we win it is too often simply a blocking event, and the taxpayers have paid for the costs of attempting the offense. In such matters we don't even break even.
LIES LIES LIES! You are a propagandist for the gene therapies. I WON'T COMPLY.
I'm not an immunologist, but let's suppose for just a moment...
If the vaccines are based on the alpha strain, and the early unvaccinated were contracting the alpha strain...
And then if the delta strain was more virulent and the alpha-based vaccine had some residual effect on delta...
But omicron is so far removed from alpha that the vaccines are mostly useless against it...
...wouldn't you be seeing just what you observed?
In the Joe Rogan podcast with Dr. Robert Malone, Malone said that the danger of continuing to vaccinate and boost with the alpha-based vaccine is that it is hyper-sensitizing the immune response against a virus that it will no longer see, resulting in the immune system de-prioritizing defenses against other diseases. He compared it to inoculating people in 2022 with the flu shot from 2020.
This makes it sound like continuing to push the current vaccine formulation is more harmful because it diverts the immune system away from current threats. The unvaccinated, whose immune system is on the general lookout, are better prepared to face a virus that it hasn't seen because their immune systems aren't "trained" to focus on the alpha COVID-19 virus.

I just don’t have time for you.
You mean you don’t have a cogent argument for your position. I thought not.
