Summary

Rep. Andy Biggs says vaccine mandates are a direct violation of Americans' personal freedoms. "It's what a tyranny would do. It's what an authoritarian government would do," the Arizona Republican told The Daily Signal, adding: And when [White House press secretary Jen Psaki] said that [community outreach] targeted neighborhoods, and President [Joe] Biden implied it was targeted, it made me think, maybe they have a database, right? So, if they've got a database, where are they getting that information? How is that information coming to them?Are they violating [Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act] laws? What is going on with it?I actually wrote a letter to the president asking him these things, which we've heard nothing back on. But I view it as a tremendous violation of our rights to privacy. We also cover these stories: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appoints Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., to serve on the special committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Nearly 60 organizations, including the American Medical Association and the American Nurses Association, demand that health care workers get the coronavirus vaccine, pointing to the spreading delta variant of COVID-19. The Dixie Fire in Northern California is just over 20% contained and continues to spread after merging with the smaller Fly Fire.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
