    Oh, as long as she served in the military, then it's totally OK then.

      If true this is abominable. This is a body that could not get a relief package done until they wanted to leave for the holiday. Trump should veto it and make them stay and work.

        Which ‘body’ are you referring to?

          I just re-watched the video of AOC getting her vaccination.

          Can anyone tell me what potentially lethal mistake was in that video?

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Disgusting:

            My gut reaction based on the headlines was the same, but if I understand correctly, the main point is that she suggested that hospitals are miss-classified some deaths as COVID deaths, which may or may not be true but is in any case not a direct contradiction to being vaccinated.

            This is the obvious truth.

              To be clear, my disgust at her getting the vaccine is unrelated to any statement she made, that just happens to be the form in which it came across my feed.

              Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                @jon-nyc I agree in sense of who “needs” or “deserves” a vaccine. However, extremes from both parties have a pretty strong anti-vax element, that the role modeling here may help mitigate.

                  @rich

                  It could, but that is no justification for vaccinating 535 members of the legislative branch when 75 year olds wait. It is unconscionable.

                  Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                      I agree with Rich. A friend from the US sent me a similar thing about Senator Rubio from Florida getting the vaccine. I’m actually OK with the people from Congress getting it, as it may help change some minds of those who are not thinking about getting it.

                        It almost gives the impression that those congress people think they are in charge.

                        Instead of the other way around.

                            Congressman Brian Mast, (R) Fl:

                            “Congress needs to stop treating itself as a special political class, and the mere suggestion that members of Congress are in any way more important than the very people who gave us the privilege of serving in Congress is appalling,”

                            Thank you for your attention to this matter.
