Your piece starts out with a wildly inflated number. Something like 8K were "forced out." Some service members retired or declined reenlistment, but DoD never published an official estimate of how many, and no estimate even approaches 100K.
The official number released by Department of Defense is 8,500 of active-duty troops discharged for refusing the Covid vaccine. There were also 69,000 Guardsmen and 22,500 Reservists on active duty who were discharged or pushed out for vaccine refusal.
The Department of Defense has consistently reported that roughly 8,000 to 8,700 active-duty and reserve service members were involuntarily separated solely for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine.
False. Those are the (approximate) numbers of Guard and Reserve personnel who were subject to the mandate who remained "noncompliant" without consequences. You're conflating numbers - inadvertent or on purpose?
"Roughly 40,000 National Guardsmen and 22,000 Reservists will be barred from service for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19, the US Army announced Friday." - Dated July 8, 2022. What happened six months later?
But that never went through. Even if anyone's pay had been interrupted, they would have received back pay. Anyone that actually separated is counted in that ~8500.
In my opinion the Vaccine was meant to harm. Those who refused to take the Jab saved their own lives and their families lives by having their loved ones stay in good health. We now know that Fauci lied and every single person who took it thru the "MANDATE" has been harmed forever. This includes my son in law who was forced to take it. His family lives in fear every day just waiting for an event to happen. This is abhorrent that troops have not been paid. Politicians get paid for not even working, not representing the troops of their state and that is a flagrant disregard for their citizens who pay their salary every single day. I could go on for pages but at this point this military department is no different, by not doing the job they were assigned.. get the troops paid back from the dismissal time to now and give them their Honorable Discharge. Our government doesn't have
a problem handing out money to other countries or Illegals in our country so why aren't they honoring what President Trump signed that our troops, who are citizens of the United States, be Paid! These men and woman lost more that their jobs, they lost careers, incomes and pride by the military's tactics against them! This doesn't touch the surface of more that I want to say!
Crazy to go back. Crazy to even join. Pin cushion guinea pigs. One would think if there were so many threats coming from outside, they would want our soldiers as strong as possible. Why do they want them weak and sick? My young cousin went in for 4 years only recently (about 8 years ago) and has permanent injuries. I cant imagine going into the military, NOT going to war, and coming out injured anyway.
And they were right not to get the vaccine because it actually changes your DNA and the Supreme Court has said if you got the vaccine you are not considered a human anymore. Think about that for a minute. Not human? You can’t make this up if you tried. The people that made the vaccine has to be held accountable for what they’ve done.
Vaccines damage the glands in the brain, which contribute to intelligence...thinking, analyzing, remembering. One of the most important is the Pineal Gland, our seat of Consciousness,, our connection to our Creator who guides us. It is no wonder why there are so many disconnected people who have lost their ability to think clearly. These vile injections are promoted by a soulless industry who puts its need for profit...over the health of the people.
Well, this was the stated diabolicalplan of the elite, and those who genetically modify everything; I have seen no proof that the Supreme Court ever made any such statement. Please show your proof date times statutes, etc..
So you are a liberal leftist fool that can’t read? The vaccine changes your DNA and it’s going to kill millions more innocent people all across the world that got the vaccine. I thank God my wife and I was intelligent enough to know something was wrong with the vaccine and I had Covid three times the first time it was like the flu and the second was like a cold and the third time I didn’t even know that I had it but I tested positive for it. I don’t think the virus was any worse than the flu. And I am 66 and over weight and I have emphysema.
It was a video that I saw and the Doctor said that not me but Bill Gates has been preaching population control and I believe this was his plan all along.
No but they need to be held accountable for crimes against humanity that vaccine is going to kill millions of people and I personally know of three deaths from the vaccine. And I would not be surprised if we start seeing senators dying in Congress.
Very sorry to hear about those you know who died. Totally agree they are guilty of more than murder. One of the seven is the current Secretary General of NATO.
Agreed that it changes DNA, as there's plenty of evidence supporting that. However, I can't find any evidence that SCOTUS said that those who've gotten the shots are no longer considered human. I can see where your source (a doctor in a YT video) may have mistakenly interpreted their ruling as such, but as far as I've looked, SCOTUS didn't actually state it. If you have other evidence, I'd welcome it.
Authoritarian regimes thrive when people stop believing that objective reality can be known. If every fact is debatable and every source is suspect, power replaces truth as the final arbiter.
Considering the fact that "Operation Warp Speed" was a Dept. of Defense "Operation" then I guess we know who the true "Enemy" is now... don't we. We have "Enemies both Foreign and DOMESTIC..." in our Government right now! This mRNA injection is... BY DEFINITION... a Bioweapon and a Weapon of Mass Destruction and it was deployed onto the entire world. These are Crimes Against Humanity and Treason of the Highest Level. IMO!!! >:-(
This was definitely a rupture in the Department of Defense during the Biden Regime and a embarrassment to our Service Members. This should be an about face after Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War is now in command and proper restitution should be made and honor those in service.
THERE’S BEEN NO TANGIBLE POLICY CHANGE REGARDING RELIGIOUS EXEMPTIONS/ACCOMMODATIONS FOR VACCINES.
Many exemption/accomodation requests are under the same premises used in COVID requests which SECWAR said, “should have been approved.”
It stands to follow that we would update and enforce the policy on this. Rhetoric is one thing, apologies are another, it’s policy change that actually matters and conveys genuine sincerity.
Trust is through the floor.
Retention is through the floor.
Recruiting is through the floor.
Manning is through the floor.
90,000 left the service to avoid the mandate.
8,700 seeking religious accommodations were kicked out with boilerplate denials.
All in the name of, “readiness.”
That’s more losses than Vietnam, The Gulf War, and The War on Terror put together.
All while parading around waving banners and touting “diversity, equity, inclusion, and access” of all things.
At what point does it become mockery?
Admiral Rachel Levine a father of two dressed as a woman was at the helm of medical public policy during this time and also was voted as USA Today’s “Woman of the Year” for 2022. He is a pediatrician (doctor for children) as a father of two, dressed as a woman in uniform and calling shots during COVID.
When we depart from Truth, it leads to chaos, confusion, awkwardness, corruption, delusion, perversion, and death.
PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL READINESS IS THROUGH THE FLOOR.
…and NO ONE trusts medical.
Their credibility is shot.
There’s also no accountability, and no liability. Members are falling out left and right with medical issues. (See below)
STILL boilerplate denials for religious exemption requests for other vaccines. Trampling religious freedom after all we just went through.
It’s all gaslighting. It’s pathetic and it’s an indictment on how far we’ve fallen.
Just the other day a 39-year old service member and father of two fell dead walking into work from his car. Cardiac arrest. One of many devastating examples. All hush hush but EVERYONE SEES and KNOWS.
There is no hiding it anymore.
RESTORE RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND RELIGIOUS EXEMPTIONS/ACCOMODATIONS FOR VACCINES IN THE MILITARY.
Make them ALL optional. Stop forcing ANY on service members.
Do that and you may see some restoration of trust.
Please make it stop.
The Commander in Chief called them all poison. Every. Single. One. [see X link below]
Was that a gimmick? A psyop? What is happening? WHY WOULD THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF STILL SUBJECT SERVICE MEMBERS TO FORCED INJECTIONS THAT HE CALLED POISON, “EVERY SINGLE ONE”?
Here are the contemporaneous links showing the number 100K of the Total Force of 2.2 million to likely be a conservative estimate, back when Biden's DoD was bragging about how many people the kicked out or cut pay to:
Rachel S. Cohen, Unvaccinated Airmen Lose Pay, Benefits as Air National Guard Yanks Orders, Air Force Times (Jan. 6, 2022), available at:
"Nearly 8,500 service members have been discharged for non-compliance with the DOD Mandate, including 1,841 Army Soldiers, 3,717 Marines, 834 airmen and 2,041 Navy sailors." See Caitlin Doornbos, Pentagon Ends COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate for US Troops NY Post (Jan. 11, 2023), available at:
On September 15, 2022, over 50 Members of Congress wrote to Secretary Austin to express “grave concern of the effect of the” DOD Mandate because, “[a]s a major land war rages in Europe our own military faces a self-imposed readiness crisis.” Sept. 15, 2022 Congressional Letter to Secretary Austin, at 1.
In their view, the DOD “has abused the trust and good faith or loyal servicemembers by handling exemptions in a sluggish and disingenuous manner,” making many wait “for nearly a year to learn if they will be forcibly discharged for their sincerely held religious beliefs or medical concerns.” Id. at 2.
They identify the DOD Mandate as the “primary cause of the [DOD]’s recruiting difficulties,” which will result in the loss of at least 75,000 from the Army alone, id. at 2, and effectively “disqualifies more than forty percent of the Army’s target demographic from service nationwide, and over half of the individuals in the most fertile recruiting grounds.” Id. at 2.
None of this even gets into the DoD's long-standing semantic games with definitions around what was a "voluntary" or an "involuntary" separation: if you couldn't get orders, couldn't PCS, couldn't attend any professional schools, couldn't promote, and couldn't reenlist if you were unvaccinated, then how was it a "voluntary" discharge if you left at the end of your contract?
July 2022 - "Roughly 40,000 National Guardsmen and 22,000 Reservists WILL BE barred from service for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19, the US Army announced Friday."
Then 6-months later, that issue went bye-bye.
And "Biden's DoD" never "bragged" about how many people they kicked out.
Ah - someone who knows nothing about how the military works and/or didn't read any of the links.
Austin cut funding at the spigot for some 70,000 National Guardsmen in various statuses, including on FTNGD. It led to a successful case by TX Gov Abbott that resulted in the Fifth Circuit finding a constitutional violation for doing this. (See Abbot v Biden). The feds can't touch Guardsmen who aren't federalized. That's almost 10% of the entire NG, which runs about 800K.
The DoD has a fixed end strength for Title 10 billets, but too many commitments to meet, so for decades (since 9/11 largely) has relied upon augmentation by its Reserve forces on Title 10 Orders, both long- and short term recurring orders.
At least 22,500 of those people, on full-time Title 10 orders, were axed and are owed backpay, SEP pay, and a variety of other entitlements.
Can we talk about the research that was being conducted in the moment on pregnant and breastfeeding mothers who were active? I had two children and breastfed during that time. Threatened for not taking the vax after having my child. I served for a long time and that was the most tumultuous time I’d ever been through.

Your first sentence is correct. Where's your support for your other contentions? It's not DOD or any federal agency.

"You are a liberal leftist fool" <--------- Facts
At least Praise can write in English correctly.
So you got the vaccine? And you are not worried about the side effects of the vaccine?
I don't get the joke.
Makes sense - I've seen your comments.
It was a video that I saw and the Doctor said that not me but Bill Gates has been preaching population control and I believe this was his plan all along.
Did you see where Bill Gates and seven others will be tried in the Netherlands for covid vaccine lies?
No but they need to be held accountable for crimes against humanity that vaccine is going to kill millions of people and I personally know of three deaths from the vaccine. And I would not be surprised if we start seeing senators dying in Congress.

they will only be taken back to the military if they bow down to Trump
