Gregory has some good updates on the increasing resistance in Australia to the lockdown tyranny, here and here and here.
Meantime, here in the good ol' US of A, White House propaganda megaphone Jen Psaki continues to insult our intelligence:
Pressed on the Biden administration’s decision not to require coronavirus vaccines or negative COVID-19 tests for people illegally crossing the southern border, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki insisted Monday the refugees are “not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time.”
Right, right. They're just here to do some shopping in El Paso and Nogales.

"Not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time"? Was there nobody on the press corp who blew a raspberry at that?
PS: Thanks for the linkage, much appreciated.
The wider world has written us off but the show's not over yet.
Then why are they told to show up for an immigration hearing 2 years from now?
A&A: There you go, asking totally unfair questions again. Seriously, though, I'd like to see someone run that one by Psaki - just to see her flash her copyrighted hateful glare.
Gregory: I was actually thrilled to see some of the videos about what's going on: people charging police lines, cop cars actually withdrawing to avoid a showdown with superior numbers. Good stuff!
Well, I guess it depends on what your definition of 'lengthy' is.
Two years would be long enough for them to get to vote in the midterms, then they could leave. "They've been here for two years, they deserve to get to vote!"
What's happening is that a large number of people are perpetual infants trying to please teacher, goody-2-shoes, teacher's pets. Last week in Sydney the vaxed were 'rewarded', allowed to have picnics of no more than 5 people, but no alcohol mind. Amazingly, hundreds gathered in inner city parks conforming to those rules, displaying their superior virtue. It's sickening.
I blame Harry Potter, which promoted conformist victimhood, brainwashing a generation.
I sometimes wonder if Psaki can even hear herself talk.
I've mentioned that prominent NSW govt members leading this lockdown stuff are Christians. Here's an interesting and well-written article by one Christian arguing against vaccine passports for church attendance:

I'd have thought it would be obvious that church should not discriminate, and Anglican and Catholic bishops agree with me, as well as the above writer, but the group the above article argues with are the Gospel Coalition, who draw comparisons with fire safety. Are they Evangelicals? I haven't read what they wrote. It must surprise American Christian friends that Evangelicals here are so anti-freedom, if that's what they are. If American friends of a theological bent can look at where they went wrong I'd be interested. I sure never expected a Gospel Coalition to be on the side of vaccine passports for church attendance, of all people.
As to Melbourne, it gets worse and worse and I can't say anything useful.
PS, I suspect that the problem is that (prominent) Bible-focused Gospel groups outside the US emphasize 'prosperity' over charity. That's what I mean by theological problems.
So they attract the prosperous and prominent members of society here. Who are reluctant to 'rock the boat'. So their apologetics defend the status quo and the powerful.
As that 'Caldron' article and website shows though, they may be prominent but they aren't representative. The Pharisee and the tax-collector.
