Biden could use door-to-door vax effort to seize guns and bibles: Rep. Cawthorn

Freshman GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn said President Biden’s door-to-door vaccine initiative wouldn’t just stop there and could eventually target guns and even Bibles.

“Now, they’re starting to talk about going door-to-door to be able to take vaccines to the people,” Cawthorn told Right Side Broadcasting during a gathering of the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas.

“Think about the mechanisms they would have to build to be able to actually execute that massive of a thing,” Cawthorn added. “And then think about what those mechanisms could be used for. They could then go door-to-door and take your guns, they could go door-to-door and take your Bibles.”

President Biden has made vaccinating Americans one of the top early priorities of his administration. An early goal of 100 million COVID vaccination in his first 100 days was quickly reached, but the more ambitious goal of vaccinating 70% of Americans by July 4 has fallen short.

“We need to go community-by-community, neighborhood-by-neighborhood, and oftentimes, door-to-door — literally knocking on doors — to get help to the remaining people,” Biden said of vaccinating efforts.
