LITERALLY CALLING IT 'COMMUNISM'

‘Biden’s Mark of the Beast’: Marjorie Taylor Greene and Jim Jordan Lead Extremists Revolting Against Vaccine Passports

Being Called ‘Modern Day Nazi Germany’

In response to news the Biden administration is in support of “vaccine passports,” digital ID’s that would allow businesses, for example, to know if a customer is vaccinated, far right wing Republicans including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Jim Jordan are leading the charge against it. The idea is being pushed not by the administration but by those very private businesses and their workers who want to re-open safely and know if that person in front of them presents a possible health risk. It is not a Biden initiative but the White House is working with 17 private companies to help coordinate.

Despite that fact U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia is calling it “Biden’s Mark of the Beast.”

“The effort has gained momentum amid President Biden’s pledge that the nation will start to regain normalcy this summer and with a growing number of companies — from cruise lines to sports teams — saying they will require proof of vaccination before opening their doors again,” The Washington Post reports.

“The busboy, the janitor, the waiter that works at a restaurant, wants to be surrounded by employees that are going back to work safely — and wants to have the patrons ideally be safe as well,” Dr. Brian Anderson, a physician at a nonprofit that runs federally funded research centers, told The Post. “Creating an environment for those vulnerable populations to get back to work safely — and to know that the people coming back to their business are ‘safe,’ and vaccinated — would be a great scenario.”

Republicans, starting with then-President Donald Trump, pushed the country to re-open far too soon – remember one year ago Trump wanted the nation to flood churches on Easter Sunday as a form of “rebirth.” That refusal by Republicans to follow science and common sense, according to both a new study and former Trump White House coronavirus task force coordination Dr. Deborah Birx, is responsible for 400,000 COVID-19 related deaths.

Enter the far right Republicans, who literally are just saying “OPPOSE!” without offering a single solution.

In typical Rep. Jim Jordan fashion, trying to appear witty without offering any actual substance, the Ohio Republican lawmaker decided to play the immigration card:

They are from from the only extremists opposing measures to help the country move forward safely.
