Video: Hannity Rips de Blasio's Vaccine Passport Rule For Bars, Restaurants as Racist Against Blacks: Fox News host Sean Hannity chafed at New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s mandate that bars, restaurants, gyms, and other businesses in the city to require proof of a COVID-19 vaccine to allow customers inside, calling it a racist proposition given the low percentage of blacks who have gotten a shot. Earlier Tuesday, de Blasio, a Democrat, announced that the new mandate would take effect August 16 as the Delta variant of COVID-19 begins to infect a growing number of Americans, most of whom are unvaccinated, according to federal officials and various media reports. But Hannity, who lives in the city, railed at de Blasio’s requirement, noting that not only is it racist but it runs counter to his party’s insistence that requiring voters to produce an ID is bigoted too.
