Senator Rand Paul just went NUCLEAR on fired CDC Director Susan Monarez.
He said the quiet part out loud and declared in no uncertain terms:
The CDC childhood vaccine schedule needs MAJOR changes.
And Dr. Monarez quietly confirmed that RFK Jr. is about to deliver MAJOR changes to the schedule.

This hearing was legendary:
Thread🧵
First, the MAHA movement is in the fight of our lives right now.
Big Pharma and their cronies in Congress and the media are doing everything in their power to take down RFK Jr.
We’re on the front lines of this fight—but we can’t do this without you.

Former CDC Director Dr. Susan Monarez opened the hearing with exciting news revealing that RFK Jr. said the childhood vaccine schedule will change starting in September.
And that he talks with President Trump about it daily.
Sen. Cassidy: “Did he (RFK Jr.) ever communicate he was going to change the childhood vaccination schedule?
Dr. Monarez: “In that morning meeting, he said that the childhood vaccine schedule would be changing starting in September.”
Sen. Cassidy: “Did he ever suggest that he was speaking for the President?”
Dr. Monarez: “He did say that he … spoke to the president every day about changing the childhood vaccine schedule.”
🔥Then Rand Paul jumped in and absolutely GRILLED Monarez on the Covid vaccine.
She couldn’t answer even the simplest questions.
Sen. Paul: “Does the Covid vaccine prevent transmission?”
Dr. Monarez: “The Covid vaccine can reduce viral load in individuals.”
Sen. Paul: “Does it prevent transmission?”
Dr. Monarez: “When you have reduced viral load… you will have reduced transmission.”
Sen. Paul: “But in other words, it doesn’t prevent transmission. You can still transmit the virus if you’ve had the vaccine.”
“Does the Covid vaccine reduce hospitalization for children under 18?”
Dr. Monarez: “It can.”
Sen. Paul: “It doesn't, the statistics are inconclusive.”
“Does the Covid vaccine reduce the rate of death for children under 18?”
Dr. Monarez: “It can.”
Sen. Paul: “No it doesn't, and there is no statistical evidence that it does reduce the death rate.”
Paul didn’t stop there.
He EXPOSED how the entire approval of the Covid vaccine for kids was built on shaky ground.
No evidence of reduced hospitalization.
No evidence of reduced death.
Just antibody counts—while real risks like myocarditis were ignored.
“When they approved it, they had this discussion at the vaccine committee that we’ve been talking about.”
“During the discussion, they acknowledged that there was no proof of reduction in hospitalization or in death.”
“So what they did is they said, what can we use to try to make people take this vaccine?”
“They came up with this. They said that if we give you a Covid vaccine, you make antibodies. So really the whole recommendation for having a Covid vaccine from six months up is not based on hospitalization data, not based on deaths.”
“It’s based on whether you make antibodies or not and what people fail to see from this is I can inject you with a foreign protein every week and measure antibodies.”
“You’ll make antibodies every time.”
“It just means immunology work, it has nothing to do with whether you should get a vaccine every week.”
“So when we're discussing the science here, we have to discuss what is the science in favor of giving a vaccine to a six month old and what are the benefits from that?”
“And then what would the risks of the vaccine be?”
“Once you start isolating in by age group, which you have to do in Covid because there's such a disparity among age group, you find that there is a risk of myocarditis.”
“It's somewhere between 6-8 in 10,000. But that's much greater than the risk of hospitalization or death, which are not even measurable because they're so small.”
Paul then went after the Hep B vaccine—calling it out as needless for newborns.
He said the burden is on the CDC to justify why babies should get any of these shots at birth.
“Everybody's alarmed we're gonna change the childhood vaccine schedule… but we should.”
“The Hepatitis B vaccine on the schedule is given to newborns.”
“There is no medical reason for it.”
“The burden is upon you and the people you wouldn't fire to prove to us that we need to give our six month old a Covid vaccine and that we need to give our one day old a Hepatitis B vaccine.”
“That's what the debate ought to be about. Not whether all vaccines are good.”
Finally, Senator Marshall torched the CDC for destroying trust.
He said their lies, deception, and forced vaccines created the very vaccine hesitancy they now complain about.
“I think the CDC is the cause of vaccine hesitancy.”
“YOU are the problem.”
“Because of Covid and forcing these vaccines on people that weren’t ever really proven or justified, that the benefits didn't outweigh the risks.”
“You let this hepatitis vaccine, at one day of age, be forced upon everybody and all of a sudden, the moms and the grandmas never trust you because you're trying to force a vaccine that's not necessary at day one.”
“You force doctors that don't agree with you to kick patients out of their clinics because they don't want their child to be exposed to a vaccine that was approved after just like 140 patients took it, being followed up for five days.”
“Your attitude here that every person needs every vaccine is completely contrary to Secretary Kennedy’s philosophy and the mission of the President.”
We need your support now more than ever.
CHD has been on the front lines of the fight to save our children for years—and we’re WINNING.
But we can’t do this without you.
