Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is ousting all members of a key CDC vaccination advisory committee and replacing them with his own picks.
The move appears to contradict a pledge he made during his confirmation process.

RFK Jr. is doing exactly what he said in his confirmation hearing that he wouldn't do. Why do we have those fucking confirmation hearings. Every one of Trump's nominees lied, and when they were done lying, they took a minute to lie, and then not tell the truth.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price.
Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

Good morning.
Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.
