GOP Lawmaker Steps Down After Sending Misinformation
A New Hampshire lawmaker circulated the groundless and absurd claim that coronavirus vaccines contain a "living organism with tentacles."
Rep. Ken Weyler, a Republican appears to support the claim made in a 52-page report he emailed to other lawmakers, prompting calls for his removal as the head of a government committee.
State Rep. Mary Jane Wallner, a Democrat, on Monday released a statement describing the document she said was sent to her and other lawmakers.
Governor Chris Sununu, another Republican, is calling for Weyler to lose his leadership position.
Among the claims made in the document titled "The Vaccine Death Report" were that "unknown, octopus-like creatures are being injected into millions of children worldwide," the Daily Beast reported.
