Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has taken it upon himself to right the wrongs of the Biden administration, which unlawfully kicked service members out of the military after they refused to shoot themselves up with the COVID jab.
“We all know that the previous administration issued unlawful orders on mandatory vaccines, on an experimental vaccine — COVID-19. You know it. We know it. We’re doing everything we can, as quickly as we can, to reinstate those who were affected by that policy,” Hegseth said in a statement.
“It hasn’t been perfect, and we know that. We’re having an ongoing conversation with you to get it right, working with the White House as well. We want anyone impacted by that vaccine mandate back into the military. People of conscience, warriors of conscience — back in our formations,” he continued.
Hegseth then announced that he signed a memorandum that directs the under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness to “provide additional guidance to the boards that are reviewing these cases concerning the review of requests from service members and former service members adversely impacted by COVID-19 vaccine mandate.”
“The guidance also will facilitate the removal of adverse actions on service members solely for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine, including discharge upgrades and less than fully honorable discharges for individuals separated for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine,” Hegseth explained.
Steve Deace of the “Steve Deace Show” is thrilled that Hegseth is declaring the mandate unlawful and getting those brave enough to refuse it back into the military.
“I want to say thank you to Pete Hegseth, man,” Deace says. “The key phrase for people, that you need to understand why it’s key, that Pete Hegseth said, ‘This was an unlawful order.’”
“Him saying that, and saying it on the record,” he continues, “that is essentially the secretary of defense saying, ‘I am tired of working through bureaucratic channels, and I’ve got too much to handle,' because what these bureaucrats do is take every one of these 8,000 service members and little by little try to bog them down and prove that the devil is in the details.”
“This is him testifying as a witness in any form of a proceeding, or in any filing, in court on behalf of those 8,000-plus military members. That’s why that is so key and vital,” he adds.

LAFD Terminated Firefighter For Refusing Covid Vaccine Just Months Before Deadly Wildfires
The Los Angeles Fire Department fired a firefighter for refusing the Covid vaccine after the mandate ended, even though he had an exemption.Small doses add up: How Big Food and Big Pharma are poisoning YOU
Donald Trump is once again the president of the United States of America, and it’s thanks in no small part to the growing coalition of those who want to Make America Healthy Again — like RFK Jr.’s former running mate, Nicole Shanahan.
“It’s weird how you’ve kind of come towards the conservatives and so many conservatives have come towards you,” Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Podcast” tells Shanahan. “We’re not in separate corners any more; we have so much we agree on.”
“One of the core principles of health, too, is vitality and truth. Truth to yourself, truth to God, and that is something, I will say, that MAGA and the conservatives talk about very, very, successfully,” Shanahan agrees.
And one of those truths is that our food supply is anything but healthy.
“We are in a place now where Big Food is frightening,” Glenn says. “All this crap, you know, with the Red Dye No. 7. And I guess if I was only having Froot Loops and everything else I had didn’t have any red dye in it, maybe that bowl of Froot Loops that I have once a month, maybe I wouldn’t get affected.”
“But this is the accumulative effect, right? It’s in everything, and that’s the problem. Because if I understand right, the food companies only have to say it’s not unhealthy at this dose,” he continues.
“Correct,” Shanahan comments.
“And that means a bowl of Froot Loops. It doesn’t mean plus the Hostess cupcakes and all of the other things that have that chemical in it,” Glenn says.
“Yeah, you know, the pharmaceutical companies gave them that playbook. That’s where that comes from. So there’s all of these residual contaminants in making drugs, and there’s some vaccines that use something that creates cyanide. It results in the creation of cyanide, and it’s micro, it’s a small amount, and so they say, ‘You’re stupid for thinking that could ever have an impact on a human, such a small amount,’” Shanahan explains.
“And so then they’ll use another one with a similar kind of standard,” she says. “Small amounts of contamination which can’t be detected are fine, as long as they’re, again, in small enough amounts the human body can just flush it out through their liver.”
“But if we do that now with a lot of our food, many of our medicines, including the aerosols we’re breathing from the cloud seeding,” she continues, “the threshold that your body can take in recovering from these exposures, it wears down over time.”

These Servicemembers Punished For Refusing The Covid Jab Are Counting On Hegseth To Make Things Right
The Covid mandate put thousands in the impossible position of weighing values against their military career; only one could remain intact.ESPN’s failure to broadcast National Anthem at Sugar Bowl makes former anchor Sage Steele glad she left
From the time she was a child, Sage Steele wanted to be a sportscaster. And after years of climbing the ladder, she landed her “dream job” at ESPN in 2007.
Nearly 17 years later, however, it all came to a screeching halt when Steele left the sports network after settling lawsuits she filed against both ESPN and its owner, Disney.
What happened to make Steele leave the job she loved at one the top sports networks in the world?
Anyone who watches ESPN and/or Disney already knows the answer to that question. Wokeness is what happened.
“These [ESPN] executives talk so much about DEI and, you know, inclusiveness and accountability and accepting, and then when it came time for me to have my own opinions off the air on my private time — I never crossed that line; I was a sportscaster, not a political analyst — that's when I got punished. And when I got punished for being me when the others were allowed to talk about abortion on an NBA show, that's when I said, 'Okay, enough,'” Steele told Blaze News Tonight’s Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson at AmericaFest two weeks ago.
What opinions did Steele share that landed her in hot water with the network? It all started when on a podcast with Jay Cutler, Steele expressed her displeasure with being forced to get the COVID vaccine.
“That day that I recorded that podcast — mid-September 2021 — was the last day possible for me to become fully vaccinated to comply with ESPN/Disney's vaccine mandate policy. I waited to the very last moment to get it because I was contemplating walking away from my entire career over the jab,” she recounted. “I didn't have the ability to walk away financially, nor did I want to (I love my job), and so I literally came [to Cutler's podcast] from this stupid grocery store where I had gotten my shot sobbing because I felt forced.”
When Cutler asked her about the bandage on her arm and her tears, she candidly told him the truth: “I think it's sick and scary for any company, employer, business to force their people to do something to their bodies.”
Before she knew it, her assignments were taken away, and she was suspended and taken off the air. Thankfully, she didn’t bend the knee.
Although Steele calls the events that led to her departure from ESPN as “devastating,” she is grateful for the new path it has set her down.
“I have this crazy platform just from talking about sports. What a waste it would have been to stay quiet,” she told Jill and Matthew.
She is also glad to have her name removed from a company that due to “timing issues” didn’t broadcast the National Anthem at the Sugar Bowl last week, even though it was sung by New Orleans native Samyra in the wake of the Bourbon Street terrorist attack that left 14 dead.
In response to the scandal, Steele tweeted the following.

Catholic fired for refusing COVID shot wins massive lawsuit
A Michigan woman who was fired after refusing the COVID-19 vaccine because of her "sincerely held" Catholic beliefs has just won a massive lawsuit.
On Friday, a Detroit jury awarded Lisa Domski nearly $13 million after she was terminated from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan on account of her refusal to take the shots. Of the $12.69 million she was awarded, $10 million was for punitive damages, $1.7 million for lost wages, and $1 million for noneconomic damages, Lawyer Monthly reported.
'This win isn’t just about compensation; it’s about standing up for employee rights.'
Domski, an IT specialist from the Detroit suburb of Wyandotte who worked for BCBS of Michigan for a total of 38 years, was fired in January 2022 after requesting a religious exemption to the vaccine mandate imposed at the company a few months earlier.
Around November 1, 2021, BCBS of Michigan announced that all employees, even those like Domski who were mostly working remotely, had to be vaccinated by December 8 or apply for a religious exemption.
Domski opted to apply for a religious exemption on account of what her lawsuit described as her "sincerely held religious beliefs." Without being permitted to have a lawyer present, she was then grilled by company officials, who asked her questions such as, "What do you do when you are in physical pain?" "Do you take Aspirin, Sudafed, Tums, or Tylenol?" and "Have you always followed this religious belief?" the lawsuit claimed.
Domski even furnished officials with the name of her parish and her priest, to no avail.
After officials probed the sincerity of her religious beliefs and the religious beliefs of other employees applying for an exemption, BCBS of Michigan placed many of them on unpaid leave before firing approximately 250 of them, including Domski, on January 5, 2022. However, according to Domski's lawsuit, the company "allowed other unvaccinated employees without Plaintiff's same religious beliefs to be exempted" from the vaccine mandate.
Now, three years later, Domski and her attorney, Jon Marko, are celebrating the jury's decision as a "major victory" in the fight to protect religious liberties.
"Our forefathers fought and died for the freedom for each American to practice his or her own religion. Neither the government nor a corporation has a right to force an individual to choose between his or her career and conscience," Marko said in a statement to Blaze News.
"Lisa refused to renounce her faith and beliefs and was wrongfully terminated from the only job she had ever known. The jury’s verdict today tells BCBSM that religious discrimination has no place in America and affirms each person’s right to religious freedom."
As might be expected, BCBS of Michigan was less effusive about the decision, expressing appreciation for jurors and the process but disappointment with the result.
"Throughout the pandemic, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, together with its employees, worked to promote the health and safety of our colleagues, stakeholders, and communities," the company said in a statement, according to TNND.
"In implementing the vaccine policy, Blue Cross designed an accommodation process that complied with state and federal law and respected the sincerely held religious beliefs of its employees."
The company also indicated that it was still exploring its "legal options" to determine a "path forward."
