Trump just dismantled the lies about RFK Jr. and vaccines on live TV.

No—RFK is not going to take away your vaccines.

Yes—RFK is going to find out the truth of the chronic disease crisis.

Watch this incredible exchange:🧵 Image
REPORTER: “Do you believe there's a connection between vaccines and autism?”

TRUMP: “Look, right now, you have some very brilliant people looking at it.

I had dinner the other night with the head of Pfizer, the head of Eli Lilly, and, RFK, as you know, and Oz … If you look at autism 30 years ago, I've heard numbers of like 1 in 200,000, 1 in 100,000. Now, I'm hearing numbers of 1 in 100.

So something's wrong. There's something wrong, and we're gonna find out about it.”
Trump said that RFK Jr. is going to be “much less radical” than corporate media tells you.

REPORTER: “What do you say to people who are worried that RFK Jr.’s views on vaccines will translate into policies that'll make their kids less safe?”

TRUMP: “I think he's gonna be much less radical than you would think. I think he's got a very open mind, or I wouldn't have put him there.

But there are problems. I mean, we don't do as well as a lot of other nations, and those nations use nothing. We're gonna find out what those problems are.

We're paying far too much because we're paying much more than other countries and we have laws that make it impossible to reduce.

We're gonna get drug costs down at levels that nobody has ever seen before.”

REPORTER: “What about the polio vaccine?”

TRUMP: “Well … I think everything should be looked at, but I'm a big believer in the polio vaccine.”
Trump made it clear that his Administration will OPPOSE vaccine mandates.

REPORTER: “Do you think schools should mandate vaccines?”

TRUMP: “I don't like mandates. I'm not a big mandate person. So, you know, I was against mandates.

Mostly Democrat governors did the mandates … they made a big mistake, having to do with the education of children.

They lost a year or two years of their lives. The mandate was a bad thing.”
REPORTER: “Do you want RFK Jr. to revoke any vaccines?”

TRUMP: “No, I want him to come back with a report as to what he thinks.”

“You’re not gonna lose the polio vaccine. That's not gonna happen.”

“I think you're gonna find that Bobby is a very rational guy. I found him to be very rational.”

“We're doing two things. We're gonna have tremendous cost savings … That's a minimum. And we're also gonna have, and I think, very serious discussions about certain things … Europe doesn't use pesticides, and yet they have a better mortality rate than we do.

So, we're gonna have reports.

I saw what happened with the polio. I have friends that were very much affected by that. I have friends from many years ago and they're still in not such good shape because of it.”

Instagram just CENSORED our post with @calleymeans as “False Information.”

But their “fact check” is wrong. ❌

Thanks to 𝕏, we can EXPOSE this censorship and tell you the TRUTH that Instagram won’t let you see:🧵 Image
Calley Means posted on 𝕏 that RFK Jr. is “saying one thing and one thing only about vaccines.”

“That they should be studied like any other pharmaceutical product.”

We shared his post to our Instagram on “See why fact checkers say this is false” provides you with a link to a Lead Stories article.Image
Image
The article itself is a direct “fact check” of Calley Means’ 𝕏 post, published two days after the post.

The article title claims that Kennedy’s position on vaccines actually goes beyond just commissioning studies on them.

This is false, and you won’t believe the “evidence” they provide.Image

MAHA is breaking through.

Biden’s FDA chief was GRILLED in a Senate hearing today over artificial food dyes, the obesity and diabetes crises, and the corrupt food industry.

He had a SHOCKING moment of moral clarity about his own role in this crisis.

Here are 10 KEY MOMENTS:🧵 Image
Image
“An ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure.”

Sen. Bernie Sanders opened the hearing by laying out a full picture of the crisis we face: “We have a major obesity epidemic as well as an epidemic in diabetes.”

“They are both directly related and they are getting worse … and the cost of treating these illnesses is staggering.”

“According to the American Diabetes Association, the total cost of diabetes in the United States was nearly $413 billion, up 27% over the past six years.”

“That is an unbelievable and unsustainable amount of money.”

“Some 90% of people with type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese. These two epidemics go hand in hand. The time is long overdue for us to pose some very simple questions.”
Bernie Sanders names corruption in the food and beverage industries as the primary culprit of our obesity and diabetes epidemics.

“How did it happen that, according to the CDC, the rate of childhood obesity in America has tripled since the 1970s and has gotten so bad that 1 out of every 5 children in our country is now obese?”

“How has it happened that over 40% of adults in the United States today are obese?”

“In my view, the answers to these questions are not very complicated. For decades, Congress and the FDA have allowed large corporations to make huge profits by enticing children and adults to consume ultra-processed food and beverages loaded up with sugar, salt, and saturated fat.”

“There is growing evidence … that these foods are deliberately designed to be addictive, similar to cigarettes and alcohol, and lead to a higher rate of type 2 diabetes.”

“Shockingly, according to a study published in the British Medical Journal, ultra-processed foods make up an incredible 73% of our nation’s food supply.”

“Bottom line: much of the food that we as Americans are now consuming are making us unhealthy and are contributing to the fact that our life expectancy is significantly lower than that of many other wealthy countries.”

“None of this is happening by accident. The food and beverage industry is spending $14 billion a year on advertising to push these unhealthy products into the American consumer.”

“Even worse … $2 billion of this money is spent to directly advertise these unhealthy products to our children in order to get them hooked on these foods at an early age.”

The case for Democratic Senators to vote YES to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary:🧵

Bookmark this.

Send it to your Democratic Senators.

We have a ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION chance to save the health and soul of America. 🇺🇸 Image
Leading Democrats are expressing optimism about key parts of RFK Jr.’s MAHA agenda.

Here’s why:🧵
Democratic Senator Cory Booker told reporters about RFK: “When he speaks about the [food] issues … we’re talking out of the same playbook.”

“I’ve heard RFK Jr. say a lot of things that are absolutely right.”

“Let’s be clear … the #1 k***er of Americans is diet-related diseases.”

“$1 out of every $5 in our economy is going to healthcare. $1 out of every $3 of our government dollars is going to healthcare.”

“Our government has a food system where we subsidize everything that makes us sick and nothing, or very little, that makes us healthy.”

“A Twinkie-like product is cheaper than an apple not because of the free market, but because of government subsidies.”

“We are in a crisis in this country … and if we don’t do something about our health, the diabetes costs, the hypertension, the healthcare costs continue to go up and up and up.”

RFK Jr. will not ban fast food.

RFK Jr. will not ban your favorite snacks.

Very few people truly grasp how deep the rot of corruption in our food system goes.

Here is what RFK Jr. will actually do to unravel corruption in our food system as President Trump’s HHS Secretary:🧵 Image
President-elect Trump has asked Kennedy to lead a measurable reduction in chronic disease as his HHS Secretary within 2 years.

The Make America Healthy Again plan does not include taking away your access to fast food.

MAHA wants to root out corruption, perverse incentives, and conflicts of interest that have allowed countless toxic ingredients into our food supply.

European countries have cut these toxic ingredients out of their foods, and fast food still exists and thrives.
RFK Jr. said after Trump’s McDonald’s visit that he doesn’t “have anything against fast food.”

He’s “against food that has seed oils,” and recommends that McDonald’s go back to using tallow fat.

Why MAHA is the most important movement in American politics today:🧵 Image
Image
The MAHA message reached Americans that Democrats and Republicans alike could not reach on their own.

This poll from a month before the election showed that MAHA was delivering Trump a CRITICAL boost in the swing states.

Kennedy’s presence in the swing states in the final weeks of the campaign plus multiple MAHA ground game initiatives delivered a clear and critical boost for Trump.Image
Pollster Nate Silver called RFK Jr.’s endorsement of Trump the most impactful endorsement of the election.

61 years ago today, JFK was assassinated.

Take a moment to remember his legacy with us:🧵 Image
JFK: “This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor.” Image
JFK: “We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.” Image
