A 49-year-old US senator from New Mexico is reportedly recovering after suffering a stroke last week, his office announced in a statement Tuesday.
On Thursday morning, Sen. Ben Ray Luján (D-NM) reportedly “began experiencing dizziness and fatigue,” according to the statement.
“He checked himself into Christus St. Vincent Regional Hospital in Santa Fe,” the statement reads.
“He was then transferred to UNM Hospital in Albuquerque for further evaluation. Senator Luján was found to have suffered a stroke in the cerebellum, affecting his balance. As part of his treatment plan, he subsequently underwent decompressive surgery to ease swelling.”
Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) issued a statement on Luján’s stroke Tuesday.
Many on social media questioned whether the stroke may have been induced by a recent Covid-19 vaccine.
Hmmm. Another vaccine injury?

The vaccine caused Senator Lujan ‘s stroke in my opinion. Many people have had strokes after the Jabs! Wake Up to the TRUTH!!! The vaccine hurts people more than it protects them from covid!

Luján’s social media profiles show he’s been a fierce pro-Covid-19 vaccine advocate over the past two years.
In a photo from Dec. 2020, Luján documented receiving his first Covid jab.
“As the first New Mexicans receive the coronavirus vaccine, I have a responsibility to lead by example and show my constituents that this vaccine is safe and effective,” he captioned the photo.
“There is nothing to fear about getting vaccinated to protect yourself from this deadly disease,” he added.
It’s unclear if the senator received any additional vaccine doses, or what company produced the initial vaccine he received, but a scan of his Twitter account shows he strongly promoted being “fully vaccinated.”
More than 230 million vaccine doses have been administered, and more than half of American adults have received at least one dose.
In New Mexico, more than 40% of the population is fully vaccinated!

He also promoted booster jabs as early as last December.
Sen. Luján has also co-sponsored legislation with Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) to suppress free speech on social media by holding Big Tech companies accountable for supposed Covid “misinformation.”
Luján was also a vaccine proponent long before the Covid pandemic; a tweet from 2019 shows he promoted vaccinating youngsters during the World Health Organization’s World Immunization Week.
According to The Gateway Pundit‘s Kristinn Taylor, Sen. Luján’s absence could throw a wrench in Biden’s effort to confirm a replacement for outgoing SCOTUS Justice Stephen Breyer.
Luján, 49, is in his first term in the Senate having been elected in 2020 after serving in the House from 2009-2021. Luján’s absence while he recovers could place the Democrat agenda and controversial Joe Biden nominees in limbo depending on how long his recovery takes. Joe Biden is set to nominate a Supreme Court nominee to replace retiring Justice Stephen Breyer. Kamala Harris’ tie breaking vote may not be able to be used if the 50 Republican senators stand united.
The senator’s office did not respond to Infowars’ request for comment as of writing.
