Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., newly appointed as U.S. health secretary, pledged to Sen. Bill Cassidy that he would not alter the federal childhood vaccine schedule.

However, in his first address to Health and Human Services (HHS) employees, he announced an investigation into childhood vaccines.

The inquiry, under Trump’s new "Make America Healthy Again" commission, raises concerns about his commitment.

Critics, including vaccine expert Dr. Paul Offit, question his stance, fearing policies that could undermine vaccine accessibility.

Oh, look, he purjured himself just like everyone knew he did and fuck all is going to be done about it.

Honestly, for being the party that claims to be about morals and values and saving the kids, they set a pretty bad example. They show that you can just lie and lie and lie so long as it is in service of the right agenda.
