Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Boasts About Being Unvaccinated Against COVID-19

Conspiracy theory-endorsing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) boasted about being unvaccinated against COVID-19 and bombastically declared: I refuse to wear a mask.

Greene, appearing on conservative news outlet Newsmax on Monday, lashed out at the $60,500 shes been fined for ignoring House mask rules and vowed to continue her defiance. (Greene, who has likened House mask mandates to the Holocaust, has been pictured wearing masks on multiple occasions , with slogans featuring political messages).

Greene told host Chris Salcedo she hasnt been vaccinated and would be standing strong, standing up for the people across this country that refuse to get vaccinated.

You know, I support anyone that chooses to get a vaccine, she added. Ill even drive him to go get one if they want to get one, but I am also against these unconstitutional vaccine mandates.

Greene first revealed her unvaccinated status on Steve Bannons podcast earlier this month. Bannon, the former Trump White House strategist, was arrested this week for stonewalling the congressional investigation into the U.S. Capitol riot.

You want to know something, Steve? Im not vaccinated, Greene said at the time. Im not vaccinated, and Im not getting the vaccine because Im an American. I can choose what I want to do with my body. I have the freedom to decide if I want to get a vaccine or not get a vaccine. I do not care who tells me to get one.
