Several lawsuits that challenge the OSHA rule, known as an emergency temporary standard, were combined into one and sent to the Cincinnati, Ohio-based 6th Circuit Court, of which 11 of 16 judges are Republican appointees. Two days after OSHA published the rule, scheduled to go into effect on Jan. 4, the Louisiana-based U.S. 5th Court of Appeals issued an order blocking the mandate. Last week, in a scathing ruling, the panel of judges on the appeals court reaffirmed their previous injunction and wrote that the mandate will likely be declared unconstitutional. On Nov. 23, the Biden administration filed court papers arguing that the 5th Circuit panel erroneously interpreted the OSHA mandate….

Government Won’t Solve Inflation, Supply Chain Crisis—But the Market Will – Epoch Times Commentary
The price of a gallon of gas is going up. Store shelves are empty. Consumers are waiting longer for merchandise to be shipped that they ordered online. Americans across the country are experiencing what inflation is like.

Germany Debates Mandatory Vaccines for Everyone After Austria Announcement – Epoch Times
Austrian Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg announced last week that COVID-19 vaccines would be mandatory starting Feb. 1, 2022, because the government has “not succeeded in convincing enough people to get vaccinated.” The move appeared to prompt Bavarian premier Markus Soder to say that German officials should impose a similar vaccine requirement. …But Heiko Maas, Germany’s foreign minister and top member of the Social Democrats, said Friday that Austria-style vaccine mandates “won’t happen.” …Last week, officials initially placed millions of people who aren’t fully vaccinated on lockdown, a measure that has now increased to the whole population regardless of vaccination status. Schallenberg said the lockdown and vaccination requirement is needed to avoid a “fifth wave,” referring to an increase of cases in the past week.
Protests Erupt Against Lockdowns and Vaccine Mandates Across Europe – Epoch Times
In Austria, tens of thousands of people took to the streets in Vienna, Salzburg, and other cities after the Austrian government announced a nationwide lockdown to deal with what it describes as a surge of COVID-19 cases. Austria’s lockdown, which follows a so-called “lockdown on the unvaccinated,” will start on Monday for an initial 10 days before government officials reevaluate it, meaning that people can only leave their homes for certain reasons, including going to the doctor, buying groceries, or exercising. Starting Feb. 1, Austria’s government said it will make vaccines mandatory for everyone. On Saturday, many waved Austrian flags while carrying signs with slogans such as “no to vaccination,” “enough is enough,” or “down with the fascist dictatorship.” Authorities said that in Vienna, the crowd surged to about 35,000 people.
OSHA Suspends Implementation, Enforcement of Vaccine Mandate – Epoch Times
The Labor Department’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) says it has suspended the implementation and enforcement of the Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for private businesses. The announcement came shortly after a U.S. appeals court rejected a challenge by the Biden administration on Nov. 12 and reaffirmed its decision to put on hold OSHA’s mandate, which requires that businesses with 100 employees or more ensure that workers either be vaccinated against COVID-19 by Jan. 4, 2022, or be tested weekly and wear a mask.
What Is The Beast from The Book Of Revelation?
Revelation 16:2 and 19:20 cite the “mark of the beast” as a sign that identifies those who worship the beast out of the sea ( Rev 13:1 ). This beast is usually identified as the antichrist. This mark is first mentioned in 13:16-17, where it is imposed on humanity by the beast out of the earth ( 13:11 ). This second beast is the false prophet ( 19:20 ), who forces the worship of the antichrist and brands those who do so with the mark. This mark is equivalent to the beast’s name or number ( 13:17 ; cf. 14:11 ). This enigmatic number is announced in 13:18 as 666.
Biden Pick for Bank Regulator Proposed Fed Take Over Banking, Manipulate Stock Prices – Epoch Times
In Saule Omarova’s world, America only really needs one bank—the Federal Reserve. Omarova, President Joe Biden’s nominee to be one of the top banking regulators, has proposed such drastic expansion of government control over finance that it’s leaving some experts scratching their heads over whether the administration is serious about her nomination. …It would be best, she outlined in a series of articles and papers, to virtually abolish private banking. Every American would have a bank account set up at the Fed and authorities would be free to inflate the currency by issuing interest on the deposits or even crediting the accounts directly. To counter inflation, the Fed could also slash interest rates or even, if all else fails, take away people’s money as needed, she proposed in a recent paper (pdf). [It would have control over your purchases- homes, autos, school loans….]
Vaccine Update: Why ‘The Party of Science’ Disdains Natural Immunity – Epoch Times Commentary
…and even the vaunted Dr. Anthony Fauci—act as if natural immunity is not the best immunity against COVID-19 as it is against so many other illnesses, including childhood ones. In case you did miss high school biology and have been living under an Everest-size pile of rocks, natural immunity is what you have via antibodies after an illness ends that prevents you from getting that illness again. …most recently, studies from those sometime adversaries, Israel and Qatar. It’s also plain old common sense. …That moment a few months back when Fauci was asked about the possible superiority of natural immunity and pretended not to have thought about it was a lie as dangerous as his many prevarications about his gain-of-function research collusion with China, possibly greater.
