A few days ago, Southwest Airlines cancelled thousands of flights and blamed the “weather.” Interestingly enough, Southwest employees are explaining the situation quite differently.

It’s peculiar that Southwest blamed the weather because it seemed to only affect THEIR airline, which also just happened to issue a vaccine mandate for all their employees.

Pilots, flight attendants, and others at Southwest Airlines affected by a blanket vaccine mandate have been calling in sick by the masses.

That is the reason for the flight cancellations, not the weather.

I have received numerous direct messages from pilots and their spouses and flight attendants at Southwest Airlines who confirmed the vaccine strike.

A Southwest pilot shared, “80% of our pilots are ex-military. We see the tyranny that’s happening. They’re coming for essential workers first (nurses, doctors, firefighters, policy, military, teachers and transportation workers) and they’re coming for the rest of America next. We’re not doing it for us, we’re doing it for America. We swore to defend the constitution against all enemies.”

A Southwest pilot’s wife said the White House contacted Gary Kelly (CEO of Southwest) and threatened to pull their government contract if they did not enforce a vaccine mandate. If Southwest had not implemented it, they would have lost their most significant contract, potentially gone under, and thus forced 50,000 workers out of a job. Pure evil.

Before pilots began not showing up to work, the pilot union at Southwest Airlines had submitted documents to stop the vaccine mandate after President “Lord” Biden ordered it for all federal workers. It was ignored by the corporate leaders at Southwest Airlines.

We are seeing photos all over the internet legitimizing the strike, i.e.:

Met one of the Southwest pilots striking. While asking for directions to a shuttle.

It is imperative that everyone rises up right now and shows support for these employees on strike. We must show EVERYONE how bad it would be for ANY airline if they mandate a vaccine for customers in the future.

The pilots refusing to bow down to authoritarianism are heroes and are fighting against much worse things this administration dreams of doing to those standing in the way of their vaccine mandate.

The disobedience has begun. This is how we take our country back.

Southwest had to ground the flights because of Hurricane Brandon
