GOP lawmaker says COVID deaths
are a Vatican plot and vaccines contain
'living organisms with tentacles'
According to New Hampshire Public Radio, New Hampshire GOP state Rep. Ken Weyler is now
facing bipartisan calls to be stripped of
leadership including from GOP Gov. Chris Sununu.
According to the accusations, the state house
Finance Committee chairman circulated a series
of bizarre COVID-19 conspiracy theories laced
with attacks on the Catholic church.
"Sununu's statement comes after Weyler, 79,
emailed colleagues materials full of COVID
conspiracy theories, including a discredited,
false report that claims COVID deaths are
driven by a plot orchestrated out of
Vatican City, Washington D.C. and London."
Among other false claims, the report says_
some COVID vaccines include
'living organism(s) with tentacles.'"
According to WMUR's Adam Sexton, Weyler also called the Catholic church a "criminal network"
full of "Satanists" and "Luciferians" dabbling
in "dark ancient spiritual practices."
Weyler also spread COVID-19 conspiracy theories
in a hearing in September, where he flatly refused
to believe the state health commissioner's data that
90 percent of COVID-19 hospitalizations in the state were unvaccinated.
"Rep. Mary Jane Wallner, the ranking Democrat on the House Finance Committee, also criticized Weyler in a statement," said the report.
"'The continued dissemination of disinformation
on COVID from Rep. Weyler is a danger to public health in New Hampshire and to the credibility
of the legislature as a whole,' she said."
