Representative Vicky Hartzler (r) [2015 file photo].

This morning:

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
I am no fan of mask mandates, but comparing them to the Holocaust is over the top & out of line.

One can object to government restrictions without evoking the worldwide tragedy of the Holocaust.

I stand with our Jewish brothers & sisters & condemn these disgraceful comments.

So carefully worded. And just who is this in reference to?

Some of the responses:

This was your first line in the sand? This one? Where have you been?

So you waited until @GOPLeader stood up against it before you had the guts to condemn it. Figures.

It’s a start.

Nah, you’re right. The probability of this occurring again approaches zero.

Name @mtgreenee as the person you disagree with or this this empty

She is the Republican Party

Say her name, coward

Vicky Hartzler throws Trump ally under the bus.

Vicky finally gets it right.

There are a few more comments.

Grotesque and offensive willful ignorance doubles down – this morning:

Marjorie Taylor Greene @mtgreenee
Well hate freedom media would you look at this story.

It appears Nazi practices have already begun on our youth.

Show your VAX papers or no in person class for you.

This is exactly what I was saying about the gold star.

This is disgusting!

Dumbshit.

Currently, in Missouri [pdf]:

Missouri School Immunization Requirements

Missouri School Immunization Requirements 0-18 Years of Age

The responses to Marjorie Taylor Greene (r):

Unvaccinated students have been banned from K-12 and college for many years. Polio, smallpox, etc. This is nothing new.

We already have to get vaccinated to attend school. Are your children not vaccinated against polio or smallpox?

“Routine smallpox vaccination among the American public stopped in 1972 after the disease was eradicated in the United States.” – CDC

I couldn’t go to elementary school without my MMR vaccine as a kid, among others.

At least 24 states require college students to be vaccinated against meningitis; at least 16 states require Hep B shots.

Many colleges also require MMR and TDap shots.

All without being called Nazis.
[….]

You have a severe misunderstanding of:

A. Historical Nazis

B. The history of mandatory vaccines for schools.

You should ask one of @mattgaetz girlfriends to explain the second one before she goes back to high school in the fall.

Read the replies Mags. It’s already a thing. It’s already been a thing for years. Yet here you are just trying to rile people up because you absolutely KNOW the people who follow you are too dumb to know the difference. You play them for the fools they are. When will they learn?

What does that first sentence even mean?

I literally had to show my records to go to college in 2000, this is not new

COVID-19

Two thing separate the US from the rest of the world
1 masks
2 vaccinations

I love the fact that you actually think you are smart!!!!

Dunning-Kruger.

psst…Marge, when my daughters started college, they had to have proof of vaccinations. Come to think of it, when they started Kindergarten, they had to have proof of vaccinations.

Required vaccinations are nothing new, my kids needed their MMR, DPT, chicken pox, polio vaccines to go to school. Even back when I was a kid I was required! Do you know how absolutely ridiculous you sound?

Dunning-Kruger.

You do know who the Nazis were, don’t you Marge?

False equivalency, Ms Greene. Even in your home state of Georgia since 01 July 2014 all students from grade 7 onwards must have must have received one dose of tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (Tdap) vaccine and one dose of meningococcal (meningitis) vaccine.

Students already have to show proof of vaccinations for other pathogens before attending college, unless they apply for (and are granted) an exemption for religious or medical reasons. Campuses are germ factories; the many vaccinated protect the few who cannot be.

Marjorie Taylor Greene plumbs the depth of stupidity and evil.

The horrifying, noxious idea that Nazi attacks on Jews before their extermination were somehow NOT part of the Holocaust

Jews in ghettoes forced to wear the yellow star was part of the Holocaust

You stupid monster.

Her stupidity is not an excuse.

Does she understand that we have required vaccines in schools for decades?

Oh, stop. Y’all hate college anyway. You all are so good at not having any fundamental belief system. Owning libs isn’t political strategy, you psychopath.

You are vile.

Comparing the slaughter of 6 million Jewish mothers, fathers, grandparents, children, babies to requiring proof of a life-saving vaccine, so we can end a global pandemic?

What is wrong with you?
You need help.

Can you even read?

#FuckOffNazi

Breathtaking stupidity.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, in association with Matt Gaetz, spell the end for the modern Republican Party as a viable political party going forward.

The embrace of the GOP of these two clowns is an amazing act of self-sabotage.

Dimwit just learned schools require vaccinations? Just fu

It takes a special kind of stupid to double down on the holocaust comparisons.

And on and on.
