The Department of Defense has had vaccine requirements in place for years, but Tucker Carlson is taking issue with the military’s COVID vaccine mandate.
that the mandate is a White House power grab. “The army is essential for political control,” he said, adding that Defense Secretaryhas manufactured “a new political purity test. One designed to separate the obedient from the free.”: “The point of mandatory vaccination is to identify the sincere Christians in the ranks, the free thinkers, the men with high testosterone levels, and anyone else who doesn’t love Joe Biden and make them leave immediately.
He then proposed a red herring, pointing to veteran suicide rates as more worthy of attention than COVID. “Only 46 members of the entire U.S. military have died from the coronavirus over the last year and a half. Suicides, by contrast, kill many, many times more,” he. “So, military suicide is an actual crisis that the Pentagon might want to address. Lloyd Austin might want to look into that.

Carlson went so far as to say that the U.S. Army’s behind-the-scenes talking points on the COVID-19 vaccine feature “the so-called tenets of Satanism which are taken from the Temple of Satanism website. So here you have the United States Army doing P.R. for Satanists.” In a statement responding to Fox News, a U.S. Navy spokesperson said, “Mandatory vaccination for our service members is a lawful order that maximizes our operational effectiveness.
Carlson’s line of thinking has spread to other corners of his network, where on Wednesday night, former GOP lawmaker and retired Navy SEALagainst the mandate, describing the “devastating” impact it will have on the nation’s national security if “hundreds of Navy SEALS” resign because of it.
At least one high-ranking member of the military has proven out Taylor’s concerns. “I am incapable of subjecting myself to the unlawful, unethical, immoral and tyrannical order to sit still and allow a serum to be injected into my flesh against my will and better judgment,” wrote Lt. Col.
