Laws were clearly broken through the oppressive enforcement and administration of the military’s COVID-19 shot, yet to this day, no one is willing to acknowledge which specific laws were transgressed.
Last month, The Gateway Pundit brought attention to the fact that the Department of War continues to ignore multiple inquiries and FOIA requests.
They refuse to acknowledge that 10 U.S. Code § 1107a acts as a legal basis showing that the implementation of the COVID-19 shot mandate was illegal, even in light of the War Secretary’s public declaration deeming it “unlawful.” If something is considered unlawful, then a law or laws must have been violated? So, why do they refuse to name the law(s) that were broken?
10 U.S. Code § 1107a “[codifies] that individuals are informed of an option to accept or refuse administration of a product.” Regarding the administration of a product authorized for emergency use, such as the previously required COVID-19 shot, only the President has the authority to waive this federal code. Former President Joe Biden did not to waive it.
So, who violated the law? And, perhaps more crucially, who in this world is allowed to break the law and escape without consequences? Where is the accountability? That’s the question on the minds of service members and veterans.
The author conducted a survey involving more than five dozen members of the military who are currently serving, representing all branches of the military. They were asked about their references to 10 U.S. Code § 1107a in their objections to receiving the 2021 COVID-19 shot.
Both their original requests for accommodation or exemption, as well as their subsequent appeals, were blanketly denied. For many, their careers were ultimately preserved only due to a federal injunction or the later rescission of the mandate on January 10, 2023.
Out of the 59 respondents for which the question was applicable, 41—representing 69 percent—referenced 10 U.S. Code § 1107a in their initial requests for religious accommodation or medical exemption for the COVID-19 shot.
In their appeals against the blanket denials of these requests, 36 of the 51 applicable respondents, or 71 percent, cited 10 U.S. Code § 1107a once more.
In the end, this indicates that in roughly 70 percent of the examples surveyed, 10 U.S. Code § 1107a was overlooked entirely. How many more were ignored? Hundreds? Thousands?
The Gateway Pundit spoke to two of the survey’s participants, both of whom emphasized that their views to do reflect those of the Department of War or their respective branch of service.
According to one service member, commanders prioritized their own financial interests over truly adhering to the laws of the nation. What’s more, some military leaders “abdicated their roles to Big Pharma, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, politicians and more, [and] created a terrible environment where every subsequent decision was to cover for their abandonment of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.” In his opinion, “They acted like sellouts in prison camp instead of faithful patriots in keeping the faith and returning with honor.”
Another service member expressed that the disregard of 10 U.S. Code § 1107a makes him “feel absolutely betrayed.” He is also “deeply empathetic and frustrated for the many servicemembers who have told [him] they did not want to get the shot and are nervous about the potential consequences down the line when legally they never should have been put in that position.”
Additionally, he feels “angry [about the] stories of friends of service members dropping dead in close proximity to the mandate, [as well as his] personal witness to heart problems and aggressive cancers becoming more common with people in their 20s and 30s.”
Sixty-one out of 66 survey participants, which is more than 92 percent, reported knowing service members whom they believe have suffered physical harm from the COVID-19 shot. Additionally, eight individuals indicated that they themselves experienced harm from the shot.
Once more, considering all of this, the questions linger. What law(s) were violated? Who violated these law(s)? And most important to the service members and veterans affected, War Secretary Hegseth, when will the lawbreakers be held accountable?
Almost a year has gone by under this administration. With three years remaining, can service members and veterans anticipate answers to these questions before time runs out?
The clock is ticking.
