While Millions Of Americans Still Wait For COVID Vaccine, These 9/11 Terrorists Are Getting Theirs First + Report: Biden Administration Can’t Account For as Many as 20 Million Vaccine Doses That Were Sent to States
AND then….
TEA PARTY 247 | January 30, 2021
As distribution for the COVID-19 vaccine continues to be rolled out to varying degrees of success and effectiveness across the nation, the majority of those who have been first in line to receive it are the elderly and essential workers.
Now, we can add “terrorist” to that list—above law-abiding Americans still struggling to put food on the table and survive in the ongoing pandemic.
Terrorists being held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba will be issued the vaccine as soon as next week, Fox News has reported, citing defense officials who had knowledge about this move.
And yes—we have the new President Joe Biden to thank for this.
The Trump administration had not specified if the prisoners would be receiving the vaccination, BizPac Review notes, but the Biden Pentagon sure as heck will, apparently.
Meanwhile, the New York Times reported that in a letter to defense attorneys on Thursday, the prosecutor in the case against five 9/11 terrorists explained that “an official in the Pentagon has just signed a memo approving the delivery of the Covid-19 vaccine to the detainee population in Guantánamo.”
The Times also noted that Trivett said that the 40 prisoners detained at the military prison will be receiving the first two doses as soon as Monday, “on a voluntary basis.”
The article also noted that the 6,000 residents of the U.S. naval base, including the 1,500 troops detained there, began receiving the inoculation on Jan. 8.
“It is not known how many people at Guantánamo have been infected with the coronavirus. Early in the pandemic, the military reported two cases there, both believed to be sailors. The Defense Department then halted disclosure of data about specific installations,” the outlet reported.
“Lack of vaccinations has been a major obstacle to resuming war crimes hearings at the base’s Camp Justice compound. It was not immediately known whether the defendants in the Sept. 11 case, including Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, would consent to be vaccinated,” the report continued.
Meanwhile, President Biden is telling us unimportant plebs to just keep wearing our masks for “months” as we wait behind literal terrorists to receive our vaccinations.
Thanks, man.
“The brutal truth is, it’s going to take months before we can the majority of Americans vaccinated – months,” Biden has said. “In the next few months, masks, not vaccines, are the best defense against COVID-19. Experts say that wearing masks from now just until April would save 50,000 lives that otherwise would pass away if we don’t wear these masks.”
As you can imagine, Twitter users had plenty to say upon finding they’d be prioritized after terrorists when it comes to receiving the vaccine:
