Running a close 3rd behind Boebert and Greene for idiot of the month, here comes Madison Cawthorn.

GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn said offering vaccines door-to-door could lead to the government confiscating guns and bibles

The North Carolina congressman said door-to-door vaccinations could lead to the confiscation of people's guns and bibles.

The GOP lawmaker was speaking at a CPAC event in Dallas on Friday.

Joe Biden said Tuesday door-to-door vaccines could improve vaccination rates as the Delta variant spreads.

Rep. Madison Cawthorn said President Joe Biden's call to offer COVID-19 vaccines door-to-door could lead to the government taking people's guns and bibles.

Cawthorn, a Republican from North Carolina, was speaking Friday during an interview at the Conservative Political Action Conference event in Dallas, Texas, taking place this weekend. He was speaking with Right Side Broadcasting Network, a conservative media outlet.

"And now they're sort of talking about going door-to-door to be able to take vaccines to the people. The thing about the mechanisms they would have to build to be able to actually execute that massive of a thing," Cawthorn said, in reference to Biden's latest community-based vaccine push.

"Think about what those mechanisms could be used for. They could then go door-to-door to take your guns. They could go door-to-door to take your bibles," Cawthorn said.


,,,Biden's remarks on Tuesday drew immediate pushback from some conservatives, including Rep. Lauren Boebert, who called the door-to-door vaccinators "needle Nazis." GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene also made a Nazi reference, calling the vaccinators "medical brown shirts," a reference to Adolf Hitler's militia and paramilitary force.

The White House hit back at the criticism, with Press Secretary Jen Psaki saying on Friday: "The failure to provide accurate public health information, including the efficacy of vaccines and the accessibility of them to people across the country, including South Carolina, is literally killing people, so maybe they should consider that."
