NYC fired teachers who refused the COVID vaccine.
That, in itself, is an outrage. Those fired teachers are suing, unsurprisingly.
The firing, though, was just the first part of the punishment. In the process of fighting the lawsuit the lawyers for the fired NYC workers discovered that the teachers who refused vaccination had their files flagged and passed along to law enforcement, including the FBI and New York Criminal Justice Services. The story is from Michael Kane, the founder of TeachersforChoice.org
Along with their fingerprints.They were flagged as troublemakers and their information was forwarded to law enforcement tagging these ordinary citizens as potential threats to the public. They will forever be in law enforcement database
I have taken a bit of heat from some critics for using the term “COVID fascists,” because it may sound a bit hyperbolic. And I freely admit to using hyperbole at times to get my points across.
But what else would you call this sort of behavior? Under what theory of democratic governance can it be justified? None of these people have broken any law; ironically, they have turned out to be right, as admitted by all those cities and states that have finally rescinded their vaccine requirements; they were dismissed, rightly or wrongly; so what makes them a threat to anybody
During the pandemic, NYC also collected the DNA of its employees through its COVID testing program, and the company that collected the samples reserved the right to keep the data and use it as they saw fit. Law enforcement agencies have used these private DNA databases as a resource in their investigations, skirting the 4th Amendment
This is a vast expansion of the government programs to track citizens suspected of no crimes, and aids in the ongoing efforts to weaponize government.
On February 8, 2023, while arguing on behalf of fired NYC workers who declined covid vaccination, attorney John Bursch stated in open court that unvaccinated teachers in New York City were flagged with problem codes in their personnel files, and when that occurred “their fingerprints are sent with that flag to the FBI and the New York Criminal Justice Services.
The source of this information is Betsy Combier who wrote an affidavit (see pdf below) in the Kane v. de Blasio case where she stated unvaccinated teachers were given a “problem code” label that was “then sent to the national databases at both the Federal Bureau of Investigation” (FBI) and the Department of Justice (DOJ).
In federal court on February 8th attorney Susan Paulson who was defending NYC stated that educators fired for declining covid vaccination were not removed for misconduct, but rather for not meeting a requirement for employment.
If there was no misconduct, why are unvaccinated educators fingerprints sent to the FBI?
I believe that unvaccinated NYC educators were being setup to be viewed as “right-wing extremists” or even “terrorists.” We know for many years Dr. Peter Hotez has been promoting an insane narrative that those who are “vaccine hesitant” are an extremely dangerous group, and that we need to look to Homeland Security and even NATO for suggestions of how to deal with such a “threat.” (watch Part 1 & 2 of Dan Cohen’s investigation into Dr. Peter Hotez)

This is how politicians "use" crises to engender more power for themselves.
They have the people they appointed to high office establish policies and protocols to do what they wanted done... knowing full well that at the time of the alleged crisis no one can get away with saying "no" lest they appear to be a 'bad citizen' who isn't cooperating with their self-declared noble intent.
What they are after is the identification and tracking of anyone who can be said to be in 'dissent' over their mandates and proclamations.
Officially registering dissent is the hallmark of a oppressive system. The logical inference is that they are preparing to "use" that list... shall we give them the benefit of the doubt? I think not... they've clearly not earned it.
I would prefer a list of all the politically appointed administrators and management who went along with this effort... but that wouldn't be right, it would be "unAmerican" ... and yet they think what they did (and maybe are still doing) was just right as rain...
The hyperbole the author apologizes for using,.. may very well have been called for...

I'm friends with many teachers here in nyc. Let me tell you, to say they're underpaid for the work they do is a massive understatement. Their salaries would cut it in other states and cities but not here in NY. They deal with SO much nonsense and horribly behave kids for little to no reward.
The FBI can eat $h!t

While this is ridiculous, it's not surprising at all that NY would do this.
And anyone who didn't think this might happen just hasn't been paying attention.

It's just inconceivable that teachers will be treated as potential criminals or as threats to the public and threats to national security or even as right wing extremists' because they refuse to become guinea pigs and inject themselves with junk provided by companies that have already been convicted for fraud and for harming their clients and paid billions of dollars in criminal fines.

This is America. A tranny will rape your daughter in her school bathroom and they will arrest the father for peacefully protesting said event.
