Olbermann is a moron with a reading comprehension problem. Massie CLAIMS that service members have told him they would quit. He's NOT encouraging them to quit. He's introducing legislation to ban a mandate from DoD. That means the military couldn't require vaccinations.

The correct response, unlike Massie's, is to weigh the risk of COVID-19 infection v the risks of taking a vaccine. Over 33M Americans (10% of the population) have been diagnosed with COVID; probably more asymptomatic cases have gone undiagnosed. Massie's anti-vax position immoral
