Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) isnt impressing Twitter users with his understanding of international law.
On Thursday night, the first-term lawmaker criticized a recent rule in Vatican City that says any employee who refuses to get the COVID-19 vaccine without a valid medical reason could be fired.
As RawStory notes , Cawthorn has no medical degree, law degree, degree in religious studies, or any of a number of other accreditations that you might think would be useful when talking about this kind of thing. However, that didnt stop him from denouncing Vatican Citys decision.
This doesnt sound legal, he tweeted Thursday. One shouldnt be forced against their will to be vaccinated. The vaccination is there for those who want it, and are in need of it due to medical vulnerabilities.

But many Twitter users pointed out an issue with Cawthorns tweet: Vatican City is, in fact, its own country, with the right to make its own laws that might differ from U.S. law.
