While the Fraternal Order of Police officially supports vaccination and encourages its members to get the shots, it is pushing back against national police department mandates — creating some potential problems for local leaders seeking to impose such requirements on their officers.
This week, the union published a list of known COVID-19 deaths among police officers, who, as first responders who regularly interact with members of the public, have been at greater risk of contracting and spreading the virus.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills.

One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
