Listening to ACIP meeting which is a catastrophe, as predicted. I’d like emphasize in all this that the CDC subject matter experts and leads have been tremendous and continue to represent good science on our behalf. I am very grateful for their dedication, despite internal and external pressure.

Straight up quackery being served up at ACIP.

The real “post vaccine syndrome” is increased antibody protections against covid!

AMA representative is tearing the current ACIP a new one, suggesting they are biased and cherry-picking data.

One of the new ACIP goons is advocating for randomized, placebo controlled trials of the MMR vaccine. This would be like now randomizing seat belts for kids or car seats for infants.

It’s so laughable that people this stupid are in charge of our health.

JFC! The RFK Jr ACIP members did not understand what Vaccines for Children, the biggest provider of childrens vaccines, even is. They were clearly confused on what they were voting for. They ended up with DIFFERENT RECOMMENDATIONS BASED ON PAYOR! That is outrageous.

Sloppy, unprepared, and incompetent. They don’t even understand VFC or CHIP or know what their votes mean. Complete amateur hour. God bless the CDC scientists who have to endure this

Dan Bongino has a nice cry on Fox & Friends: "I gave up everything for this. I mean, my wife is struggling... I stare at these 4 walls all day in DC, you know, by myself, divorced from my wife. Not divorced, but I mean, separated. And it's hard."

(Note that Brian Kilmeade has to encourage him lol)

New via NYT — The CIA sent the White House an unclassified email listing all employees hired by the spy agency over the last two years to comply with an executive order to shrink the federal work force. One former agency officer called the reporting of names a “counterintelligence disaster.”

We all know their names, though. Can someone let the civil servants know?

For friends who are in the federal government, this is a very good guide on why you should be using Signal. In short, it’s safe and it’s free! a.wholelottanothing.org/a-guide-to-u...

Congress? Hello—federal workers here. We are struggling to fight all of this on our own.

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

Do you have any idea how often I hear “you don’t work, you work for the government” and politely chuckle.

You can’t hurt us! We’re the Buffalo sports fans of adults. We no longer feel pain or humiliation.
