On Thursday, Los Angeles Sheriff Alex Villanueva announced that he would not enforce the vaccine mandate passed by the city council because “the issue has become so politicized.”
On Wednesday, the city council (which I continue to stress to my podcast audience we have to be active and take over local seats) approved a measure requiring anyone older than 12 entering any indoor public venues, besides grocery stores and pharmacies, to be vaccinated starting November 4th.

Los Angeles, you have an intelligent sheriff. The CDC, HHS, and the Health Department do not have an enforcement apparatus of their own. In addition, the federal government cannot commandeer state officers to enforce its rules. So if the sheriff won’t arrest or issue citations, the people will not abide. How’s that shoplifting enforcement working out?
I’m encouraged by the sheriff’s pushback on the issue, but it still makes me livid that even the scientists aren’t following the science. The CDC’s own May 2020 published study and dozens of other randomized controlled trials show that MASKS DON’T WORK against the transmission of viruses. Yet, they continue to lie about it in public statements and their guidelines.
“The issue has become so politicized,” Villanueva said. “There are entire groups of employees that are willing to be fired and laid off rather than get vaccinated, so I don’t want to be in a position to lose 5, 10 percent of my workforce overnight on a vaccine mandate.”
The order extends to places such as restaurants, salons, gyms, and sports arenas. Those with religious or medical exemptions are required to show a negative Covid test taken within 72 hours.
I love how California is still pushing people to wear masks, despite evidence that masks don’t help prevent cold and COVID-19 virus spread. Also interesting is that California set specific dates to stop/start wearing masks for both requiring and not requiring masks. “Oh, we see a rise in cases. Okay, we’ll wait two weeks, and then we’ll force everyone to wear masks again,” if they wanted to protect people, and they believed masks helped, they would have it take effect immediately, right? There’s just no logic to what they do.
As I said earlier, let me get a lot more specific as in this case; this is why it is critically important that the electorate decide who their law enforcement leader is vs. the municipality’s head making that choice. In New York City, for example, the Police Commissioner is CHOSEN by the City’s Mayor. The police commissioner is accountable to the Mayor – not to the people. Thank you, LA Sheriff Villanueva, for highlighting why this makes a difference.
Why any sane person would want to live in California is beyond me. We all went through the whole mask fiasco, and everyone has had it. I’m vaccinated and will not wear a mask again. The democrats think that they will maintain power if they can keep this control of your personal life. It’s not about science; it’s about winning elections.
