USMC KICKS OUT 169, DENIES RELIGIOUS EXEMPTIONS

Via ZeroHedge

As of end of this week the US Marine Corps has kicked out at least 169 Marines over their refusal to get the coronavirus vaccine by the mandated deadline. This after the past week alone has seen 66 additional Marines discharged on top of the initial service members booted.

Amid the new Omicron fears, of which there may be a mere handful of cases across the US military, the Marine Corps said in a new statement that “The speed with which the disease transmits among individuals has increased risk to our Marines and the Marine Corps’ mission.”

The Marine Corps lags behind other branches in overall vaccination rates, with 95% of all personnel having received at least one shot. This is compared with the other branches, including the Army, Air Force, and Navy which are all at 98%.

Crucially, the Marines have been at the forefront among the branches of kicking out troops, while also denying all vaccine exemptions based on religions reasons.

“The Marine Corps has been the most aggressive in discharging troops who refuse the vaccine,” The Associated Press reports. “And it also has denied all religious requests for vaccine exemptions that have been processed. As of Thursday, 3,080 of the 3,192 requests received — or more than 96% — have been processed and rejected.”

Meanwhile, the big Covid and military headlining story this week was that seven staffers traveling with the Pentagon’s #2 highest overseer tested positive for Covid-19, with extensive contact tracing now underway given they visited multiple major military installations. Much of the delegation that traveled with Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks is now quarantining. Of course, all the infected were vaccinated.

In other branches, there are continuing threats from commanders over the vax mandate. “The Army said it has reprimanded more than 2,700 soldiers and will begin discharge proceedings in January, while the Air Force has discharged at least 27 members,” NBC recently reported.

This is definitely by design. Our armed forces are being purged of any member who does not bow down to their false gods. I have a family member who is a midlevel officer in the Naval reserves. (His religious exemption was denied.) They have been given the option to put in their resignation papers by the end of Jan 2022 or be boarded out within 6 mo’s.

I had a conversation with a retired Major USMC. We were at a Team Rubicon event clearing a hillside of trees. To deploy to the next event you had to be vaccinated. I told him I wasn’t going to get one, he said ‘lie’, I didn’t want to. So now I can’t do any events until I get the jab. His attitude was that we had been jabbed with everything anyways, why stop now? Decent point, but this is different. Being hit with an experimental substance should be voluntary, period. My heart goes out to those who signed on the line and are now being forced out. F’d up sh*t.

This is what it’s all about. The dismantling of our armed services, and culture. The 0’bama said in ’08 that America had to change it’s culture, and traditions and fundamentally reshape America.
America was perfect before the 0’bama and will be again once we cull it of it’s culls.

Because of my life at sea I had to have an infinite number of vaccines due to the places I had to go. I took them. They were actual tried and true effective vaccines. Nothing experiential and no side affects.
The Wuhan and subsequent shots and passports is to fundamentally change America.
Hold the line.

These 169 truly are the Few and Proud. Stalin lost whole Army Groups because of his purge. We don’t even have brigades to spare.

It’s really quite shameful how many people caved to the pressure. Nobody cares about anything other than their paycheck and their pension anymore. I’m sure those marines who got discharged for not getting the jab will be able to find new jobs and move on with their lives. At least they will have their integrity, and their DNA, intact.
