On Thursday, the Department of Homeland Security announced new COVID-19 vaccine mandates for non-U.S. travelers entering the country via land ports and ferry terminals. The new requirements take effect on Saturday, and they include essential and non-essential travelers.
According to the DHS press release:
“Starting on January 22, 2022, the Department of Homeland Security will require that non-U.S. individuals entering the United States via land ports of entry or ferry terminals along our Northern and Southern borders be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and be prepared to show related proof of vaccination,” said Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas. “These updated travel requirements reflect the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to protecting public health while safely facilitating the cross-border trade and travel that is critical to our economy.”
The regulations state that anyone who enters a port or ferry terminal who is not a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or lawful permanent resident must attest to his or her vaccination status, provide proof of vaccination, and provide “a valid Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI)-compliant document, such as a valid passport, Trusted Traveler Program card, or Enhanced Tribal Card,” along with any other documents that U.S. Customs and Border Protection requests.
This may sound reasonable and fair, but the new regulations will exacerbate the supply chain crisis that has already made American life more difficult and contributed to inflation.
These regulations are the second phase, and the first phase went into effect in November. That first phase allowed fully vaccinated non-essential travelers to enter the U.S. via ferry terminals and land ports.
This new set of regulations is more nefarious because untold numbers of cross-border truckers won’t be able to enter this country because they’ve chosen not to take the shot.

Meanwhile, illegals can come and go as they please.
Remember the good ol’ days before we became a totalitarian country, when liberals protested travel bans on a few countries rather than proposing global travel bans?
The DHS computer needs a new spacebar.
The *Convoy to Ottawa* started at 0700 this morning BC time. The drivers and trucks are planning to arrive there on the 29th.
It’ll be Feb to Mar for this border issue to show declines at marketplace (immediate in feed stocks in Canada now)
At issue is the long wait times (4-6 hours) at the warehouses to get loaded within the US.
Count on it. The deepstate has lost the chess game. They have a few desperate moves left that’s about it. we are in the end game so brace for a rough ride before these satanics collapse.
All by design.
READ LATER.
Don’t forget the cannibas smoking that today’s 18 yr old (read: yesterday’s seven yr old) are indulging in.
And that.
Sadly, that’s tame compared to what they have going on today.
