RFK JR: ADD, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, Narcolepsy, Autism.. All of these are injuries that I never heard of when I was a kid.

So, the study that RFK mentioned during his press conference regarding autism and costing trillions of dollars, has been retracted in June of 2023.

First Zelensky and now China. Vance you are going to mess with the wrong country who will teach you a lesson.
Here’s the original comment from Vance, broadcast on April 3.

"We borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture.”

Grossly offensive, ignorant and racist. China is rightly furious.

This is bad, very bad. Patients already have a difficult time affording their medications. With inflation and the tariffs taking affect it will be more difficult. Tariffing pharmaceuticals is outrageous. It will cause deaths because people cannot afford their medications.

If pharmaceutical tariffs happen a lot of people will die, and many more will be sickened or disabled.

You CAN'T separate this shit from the fact that Trump, Musk, and RFK Jr have all proudly espoused eugenicist beliefs.
🚨 JFC, per pool:

Trump complained that the U.S. doesn't produce its own pharmaceuticals any more and talked about disparities in global prices.

“We’re going to be announcing very shortly a major tariff on pharmaceuticals.”

He said that will bring pharmaceutical production back to the U.S.

Contrary to popular opinion, History of Vaccines is not the one and only (or, humbly, best) website on vaccine history and science. Here are some recommendations for reading/viewing.

It's time to talk about how if people really want this American experiment aka "democracy" to survive, they will need to put bodies on the line to protect the vulnerable.

Otherwise, the United States will just become yet another nation ruled by kings, thugs, and cowards.

Measles is deadly. Instead of leading a real response, RFK Jr. is downplaying the crisis and pushing debunked treatments. His failures prove one thing: 52 GOP senators knew exactly who they were confirming—and they did it anyway.

Just in case folks think it's hyperbole, here's a post by Trump on Truth Social. For the unaware, this symbol was used to mark "gay men, bisexual men, and those deemed 'transvestites'," in Nazi concentration camps.

Trump is openly posting Nazi content.

This is absurd. I have multiple family members diagnosed with autism.Trump and RFK act as though autism is a problem. It’s not. It’s dehumanizing. Autism has been around long before vaccines existed. The increase in diagnosis is because of better education and testing.
