Doubt-Peddling YouTube Doctor Named FDA’s New Vaccine Chief Vinay Prasad has a long history of questioning the necessity, safety, and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines. Now, he’s the FDA’s top vaccine regulator.

This is real America.

Certainly adds context to the FDA’s refusal to review Moderna’s application for an mRNA flu vaccine.

Groups like the Brownstone Institute have been pushing to get mRNA technology banned.

The FDA commissioner is an ally of Brownstone.

The director of CBER is an ally of Brownstone.

The director of CDER is an ally of Brownstone.

For those keeping tabs.

50+ years to get us here.

I mean, this doesn’t just hurt us in terms of technological development vs other countries, it poisons Americans and threatens the only planet we have.

The conservative movement has to be dismantled.

Ironic how “America First” and “Make America Great Again” and the “patriotic” conservative movement has really just been a slow national suicide.

Nobody has done more than Donald Trump to elevate China.

Owning the libs by destroying America as a global leader

Ashish Jha is a “say anything to stay in the good graces of power” kind of guy.

He played the same game under Biden and it’s why that administration brought him in to greenlight their push for COVID normalcy.

I mean, all of these horrors are due to the trio: Makary, Prasad, Høeg…

Marty Makary is an anti-science crank.

I’m sure she does. But every bit the extremist Shapiro is.

This is why it’s important to have journalists who know who these people are.

Younes was a major figure in the politicization of COVID, which directly helped to put Donald Trump back in the White House.

The whole Biden administration censorship narrative she promotes to this day was always bullshit aimed at undermining Trump’s opponents and muddying the COVID debate.

Jon Stewart Praises Attorney Behind Years of Anti-Vaccine, Anti-Public Health Lawfare “You’re a civil rights attorney who has been canceled by both the right and the left, which means you must be doing something right.”

Is it too much to ask that large outlets have a single fucking clue about the people they platform and their weirdo positions?

Honestly.

Younes wants to present herself as a principled libertarian whose only concern was personal freedom.

She worked for a right-wing lawfare group that fought stuff like the EPA’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas and the CDC eviction moratorium.

She promoted COVID misinformation and anti-vax BS.

Thanks for sending me this.

The New Yorker is now giving Jenin Younes a platform to rebrand herself as free speech warrior—as opposed to right-wing operative and COVID crank.

This follows Jon Stewart’s decision to platform her.

Un-fucking-real.

The people who needed their own half time show are the same people who needed their own water fountains.

HHS Has Been Using Anti-Trans Language From a Christian Right Think Tank The department refers to gender-affirming care as “sex-denying procedures,” a term coined by the Ethics and Public Policy Center.

SCOOP: The Department of Health and Human Services has been using the term “sex-rejecting procedures” to describe gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary individuals.

The term is not clinical or medical. It comes from a Christian Right group.

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

I mean, how much time you got?

Some important details from Robert Redfield here: Covid started in the summer of 2019*, which nukes the “wet market” natural origin timeline And the head of the Chinese CDC told him in early January they had hundreds of cases and it “had nothing to do with the wet market.” Redfield understood that top Chinese officials were pushing the wet market narrative and U.S. officials were eager to play along since they were also implicated.

Redfield is a Trump appointee and known crank. If COVID was circulating in summer of 2019, the entire timeline of the pandemic would be different. Chinese authorities were not "pushing the wet market narrative," they actively covered it up.

What is happening to people's brains over there

Walker’s piece shows how powerful groups are working to reshape language around sex + gender. They work across interests and even countries, normalizing increasingly reprehensible language. But contrary to what The Atlantic would have you believe, none of those interests are trans people ourselves.

The term is so rare that out of over 300,000 news entries, it only appeared first in May 7 2024 in a "news" article on evangelical blog World News Group called "Giving evil a pleasant label." This was logged two days before EPPC posted the document on May 9.

By all means!

Oh I didn’t think you were.

I missed this tho—and wish I hadn’t!

Good find!

“Sex-rejecting harm” is definitely a precursor.
