In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”

At this point we have to assume this administration is unlikely to approve any new mRNA interventions and will be extremely resistant to approving any new vaccines. Sabotaging our national health and medical science.
