Sara Palin Promises She Will Be Six Feet Under Before This Happens

Former Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin announced to a crowd attending a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) conference Sunday that she absolutely would not get vaccinated against COVID-19.

“It’ll be over my dead body that I’ll have to get a shot. I will not do it,” she said to a cheering crowd in Phoenix, Arizona. “I will not do it and they better not touch my kids, either.”

TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk questioned Palin about the people at risk of losing their jobs and education for defying vaccine mandates. Palin answered that “enough is enough” and people need to “stiffen their spines” against the government and those mandating the shot.

“I think if enough of us rise up and say ‘no, enough is enough,’ there are more of us than there are of them,” Palin said. “So for us to be hesitant, and for us to kinda wait and let somebody else take this on and stand up and say ‘enough is enough.’”

“You all need to look around and realize that if you stiffen your spine and take those positions that you know are right, especially when it comes to government telling us what we have to inject into our own bodies,” she continued. “Realize that those around you as you stiffen your spine, their spines too, will stiffen.”

Palin as well as members of her family tested positive for COVID-19 in April. She cautioned that any person can contract the virus and should take proper precautions, including wearing masks indoors.

“As confident as I’d like to be about my own health, and despite my joking that I’m blessed to constantly breathe in the most sterile air, my case is perhaps one that proves anyone can catch this,” she said. “One of my daughters awoke to having lost her taste and smell [and] immediately had a positive test, then was quarantined in isolation.”

In the past year, tensions have grown among government officials, businesses, and schools over vaccine mandates throughout the U.S. In early November, Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz introduced legislation intended to stop schools from mandating the vaccine for children after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for students ages 5-11.

Republican Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy slammed President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate on companies employing 100 or more individuals by saying the administration treats Americans like “anti-science morons.” However, he called the vaccine a “Godsend” and said that he believes the president should urge people to get the shot.
