Idaho lawmakers want to criminalize mRNA vaccines. Here's what happens if their bill passes
Political polarization in the United States has created bitter divides over all kinds of public health measures — ranging from abortion rights to COVID-19 protections. Yet in Idaho, a deep-red state in which Donald Trump carried 63.8% of the popular vote in the 2020 election, Republican legislators are taking their conspiratorial beliefs regarding COVID-19 a step further by attempting to criminalize mRNA vaccines.

Indeed, last week two Republican lawmakers in Idaho introduced House Bill 154 proposing that "providing" or "administering" mRNA vaccines should be criminalized. Specifically, doing so would be a misdemeanor.

"Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a person may not provide or administer a vaccine developed using messenger ribonucleic acid technology for use in an individual or any other mammal in this state," the bill states. "A person who violates this section is guilty of a misdemeanor." In other words, doing so could result in jail time and/or a fine.

If passed, the bill proposes that the law should go into effect this summer on July 1, 2023.

Idaho isn't the only state to propose unscientific anti-vaccination legislation. By October 2022, nearly 80 anti-vaccine legislations had been introduced to state lawmakers. Under Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida was the only state to not not pre-order COVID-19 vaccines for kids under 5 over the summer. Currently, in North Dakota, state legislators are considering various anti-vaccination bills, including one that would ban colleges and universities from requiring or promoting COVID-19 shots.

Mohapatra added: "Federal courts have been staffed by ideological judges, so I couldn't predict the eventual lawsuit would go."

then they need a passport and immunization record to be allowed outside of the state...

The general impression I got from the interview is, these guys are fucked and there is more than a dozen of them including Trump. It was legal for her to go much further, it was a special grand jury, not a regular one, at least according to the judge. There is nothing for Trump or the rest of them to legally latch onto here, but there is plenty to be worried about.

If she causes a mistrial, someone will probably kill her.
NOT advocating, just predicting. There are enough people who hate trump, republicans in general, and everything they represents, who have been waiting YEARS...to let her ruin the best chance anyone has seen yet, without taking retribution.

Tennessee Becomes the First State to Pass a Ban on Drag Shows
The bill is so vaguely worded it could also target trans people and Pride celebrations generally.

because, you know, those darn drag queens are just everywhere, leaving a trail of glitter and sequins all over the place...

It is good she is getting showcased so much, remember a majority of folks in her district considered her their best and brightest. She exemplifies southern ignorance and stupidity and ya wonder why normal people think the south breeds idiots. :lol:

Bannon threw agent orange under the bus also. He then walked it back. Let’s see if this denunciation has staying power.
