Gabbard rips Congress members for taking COVID vaccine before elderly

Former Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Tulsi Gabbard blasted young members of Congress for taking the coronavirus vaccine before American seniors and declared she wouldn t receive the vaccine until the elderly could.

The Hawaii congresswoman made the remarks in a Monday morning tweet as members of Congress receive the Pfizer drug as part of a continuity of governance plan, vaulting them to the front of the line before at-risk seniors and other frontline workers.

On Friday, NY Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Bronx) recorded herself receiving the vaccine live on Instagram and encouraged her millions of followers to ask questions about the drug.

Heartless, arrogant, unelected CDC bureaucrats have decided that the lives of elderly Americans just don t count, Gabbard said.
