https://bonnercountydailybee.com/news/2020/apr/19/scott-likens-order-to-nazi-germany-7/Scott, a Republican from Blanchard, made the remarks on a Zoom interview with Jess Fields, a podcaster from Huston.
Scott said state determinations of which business are essential and can remain open and which are nonessential and must stay closed was akin to the tyranny exhibited by Germany during World War II.
Thats no different than Nazi Germany where you had government telling people, You are an essential worker or a nonessential worker and the nonessential workers got put on a train.
For extra entertainment, this hideous wretch claimed the death toll wasn't so bad because abortion is worse.
Needless to say, her county's Human Rights Task Force is not amused by her actions.

(18,663 posts)In 2015 Scott is reported to have cut wires which part of the fire suppression system in her office. Scott believed at the time that the wires were in fact listening devices planted to spy on her. The wire cutting incident was witnessed by other Idaho House members.[2]
In August 2017, Scott defended white nationalism on her Facebook page. She reportedly said, "The way the media has set this up, the mention of white nationalist, which is no more than a Caucasian who (sic) for the Constitution and making America great again, and confusing it with term, 'white supremacist' which is extreme racism. Therefore, if one is 'guilty' of being white, one is clearly racist."[3]
At the start of the 2017 legislative session, Scott reportedly made a remark to fellow state representative Judy Boyle, upon learning of her appointment to the state legislature's agriculture committee. The reported comment was that female lawmakers obtain ranking committee appointments and other leadership positions only if they "spread their legs." The alleged comment received widespread rebuke from other state lawmakers.[4]
