I fully support @realDonaldTrump Vetoing the Sham COVID relief Bill! We should not be sending billions to foreign countries while scraping off $600 to hurting Americans!

Great news from Pfizer this morning! Their #covid19 #vaccine is efficacious for at least 6 months. Appears to work very well against B.1.351 variant (strain dominant in South Africa). https://t.co/hAgoRdrZb2

I gotta be honest. I don’t see anything about this post that is in poor taste. In fact, I think the opposite is true. I think this is a powerful and poignant illustration. Racist segregation laws were immoral, and the same is true of vaccine passport segregation laws.

If you don’t see what’s wrong with it, read the backlash from thousands of people against this stupidity. Comparing a vaccine to the holocaust is brainless and makes all libertarians look as trashy and awful as the mises caucus.
