Here’s another example of Republicans defying common practice and common sense, this time to prop up anti-vaccination nonsense for a political “statement.”

Republicans have already been clear that they won’t support further aid to Ukraine after they get the House next month. So of course they’d take the opportunity to sabotage whatever they can now.

Vaccinations help prevent the loss of critical team members to viruses along with preventing illness from spreading where personnel are interacting. Using the repeal of the COVID vaccination mandate as a hostage has the potential to make entire units non-deployable in the future and risk the health of countless individuals.

Misinformation coupled with reckless political antics will affect national security. Incredibly irresponsible, but that’s Republican.
