When Washington state representative Jim Walsh went to his office in Olympia on Tuesday, he found himself on the outside looking in. His ID badge, which acts as a keycard for state government buildings, didn’t work.
It wasn’t a mistake or technical glitch. The rules committee for the House made an “interim rule” banning entry to anyone who doesn’t present their Covid-19 injection papers, including elected officials. Walsh, who has opposed Governor Jay Inslee’s vaccine mandates, was furious that the governing body he was elected to work in and represent his constituents was not only failing to counter the Governor, but was taking his mandates even further.
“We are absolutely falling into some sort of Stockholm Syndrome that’s taken hold of the legislature here in Olympia,” he said in a Facebook video. “And rather than being that active check against the Governor’s abuses, we’re following the Governor’s lead. That’s not what we’re supposed to be doing. We’re supposed to be standing up to that and representing you!”
Washington has been among the leaders of the vaxx-nanny movement, imposing some of the most draconian mandates possible. And it’s getting worse. As Pandemic Panic Theater spreads, even government officials are finding they’re being segregated.
Instead of. Hitler, we are turning into scores of little Hitlers.
Slowly, but surely, we are being prepared for our Fuhrer!
guns and global warming will be declared public health crises and added to health pass
dont leave home without it
I am not familiar with the Washington State Constitution, but I imagine that it does not provide for the rules committee for the House making an “interim rule”, that denies districts their representation in the state HoR.

“Your papers are not in order. Please come with me.”
Washington state. 100% mail-in voting. Secretary of State (Kim Wyman) is a RINO. Inslee is a fraud.
The vaccine doesn’t work, but neither does their Governor.
The new scam: use the Rules Committee to get rid of political opponents.
Like Pelosi’s mask fines.
Break down the door. I’m certain there is something in the Washington State Constitution that bars the hindrance of legislators when they’re in session.
There is in Illinois. Hell, if they’ve got State House or Senate plates they can’t even be pulled over for speeding.

the only references to this are on a few ultra-right conspiracy theory echo chamber websites which are all repeating the same thing ....
nothing at all about this supposed event on the Washington State Republican Legislator website:

People often ask how Hitler and Stalin came to power.
This is how.
I’d bet that payback will be a real bitch! Sooner or later the Gov will have to face these guys.
Another thing. Look at who is refusing the jabs. Blacks are refusing in greater percentages so this can be spun as a blatant attempt to keep blacks out of the legislative process! Democrats practicing segregation again!
Water cannons and dogs, anyone?
Well. Mr Walsh, welcome to the world that we little peons face every day. Suck, doesn’t it?
Yep, the dictators killed off all Their opponents, and everyone else fell right into line. The left are figuratively killing off their opponents politically now, by throwing them In prison, ruining g their lives and careers, and barring them from their own places of business.
