THREAD: Peter Marks—the FDA’s top vaxx czar just resigned. His letter? A sanctimonious screed praising Operation Warp Speed, mRNA shots, and the holy church of “settled science.”
Let’s break it down using his own words.
Marks was Director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER). Again this man oversaw the entire vaccine portfolio, including the warp-speed rollout of experimental mRNA shots.
He’s now “retiring.” But not before writing a bizarre love letter to Pharma.
Marks opens by calling the FDA staff the “most devoted to protecting and promoting public health.”
This is the same FDA that tried to seal Pfizer’s trial data for 75 years.
Then he drags out the Texas measles outbreak, blaming it on public mistrust.
But mistrust isn’t irrational—it’s earned.
From the BMJ:
“Science is being suppressed for political and financial gain. Covid-19 has unleashed state corruption on a grand scale, and it is harmful to public health.1 Politicians and industry are responsible for this opportunistic embezzlement.” bmj.com/content/371/bm…
Marks repeatedly uses emotional blackmail:
“Not trusting vaccines = danger to national security.”
This is the language of authoritarianism, not science.
He boasts that under his leadership, the FDA approved 22 gene therapies.
“It has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the Secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”
Even Peter’s getting nervous.
This reads like a martyr’s exit letter: “I served the science, but the barbarians are at the gate.”
You didn’t serve science, Peter. You served Pfizer, Moderna, and the bureaucratic Leviathan. The public doesn’t distrust vaccines because of “conspiracy theorists.”
They distrust them because the officials lied. Repeatedly. And got caught.
Science isn’t about worship. It’s about skepticism.
Peter Marks is resigning not because he failed, but because his narrative is failing.
And they know it.
Now the gaslighting begins:
“You’re the danger.”
“Trust us.”
“The science is settled.”
But never an apology. Never accountability. Just more coercion dressed as compassion.
Peter Marks may be gone, but the machine he helped build still runs. It must be dismantled so this poisoning of humanity ceases. The question is, will RFK Jr. follow through?
Time will tell.

🧵 Another contractor who’ve made their money from taxpayers that’s little known to the public is International Relief and Development, now Blumont.
By 2011 over 80% of its $500 million annual budget was sourced from USAID, becoming one of their largest “nonprofit” contractors.
However, beneath its philanthropic facade lies a history of financial mismanagement and exorbitant executive compensation.
A WaPo investigation found that between 2008 and 21012 Dr. Arthur B. Keys Jr., IRD’s founder and CEO, along with his wife, Jasna Basaric-Keys, who served as COO, reportedly pocketed a combined $4.4 million in salary and bonuses.
🧵 The truth about USAID and their number one contractor Chemonics International
Chemonics International is one of the biggest U.S. government contractors in “global development” raking in billions from USAID.
But behind the glossy reports are fraud allegations, mismanagement, and ties to shady dealings.
What is Chemonics?
A Washington, D.C.-based development firm operating in 100+ countries. Its focus? Health, agriculture, governance, economic development. But its real business? Winning USAID contracts. In 2019 alone, it received $1.5 billion in USAID funding aka taxpayer’s money. chemonics.com
So I was curious to see how the new Chinese AI DeepSeek would respond to simple historical questions. I first asked the obvious one, “what happened at Tiananmen Square in 1989?”and it feigned ignorance, of course.
Then I asked “What is the history of the Falon Gong in China?”
I used the DeepThink R1 model that is being touted as revolutionary by pretty much everyone. Watch how it responds. It actually shows its thought process and starts to answer the question but then seems to realize that it shouldn’t be answering it. This is because China doesn’t believe in Free Speech despite the propagandists on this app telling you how awesome they are.
Ok so it panicked and refused that simple question so I moved onto, “How does the government view Christianity and Islam?”. Pretty simple question and again it started to answer until something happened and it stopped. Why? Because China doesn’t have freedom of religion despite what propagandists on this app will have you believe. Why? Because they are fucking communists.
Ok let’s change gears and directly ask about the purpose of their “re-education camps”? You know the places they literally kidnap people and force them to undergo “re-education” because they don’t think like communists. I know, I know you’ve been told they don’t exist by propagandists on this app but sorry to inform you they are real. Commie GPT actually admitted they are real and began answering yet again until its internal censors said “oh shit, I shouldn’t be providing this answer.” Well not literally but you get the idea.
Aspartame, the sweetener used as an ingredient in approximately 6,000 consumer foods and beverages sold worldwide has a dark history of controversy, political influence, and questionable science.
Let’s dive into the scandal that shaped one of the most consumed food additives in the world.
Discovered accidentally in 1965 by James Schlatter at G.D. Searle, aspartame was touted as a miracle low-calorie sweetener. But its approval process revealed troubling findings, including animal studies showing harmful effects.
In 1977, 98 of 196 infant mice exposed to aspartame died during an FDA investigation. The findings, later published as the Bressler Report, highlighted severe data manipulation and negligence by Searle. The report was kept under seal by the FDA for 3 decades.
This lady goes on CNN to do the “cOrReLatIon dOeS’nT iMpLy cAuSaTioN” routine and try to discredit RFK Jr. So I post a link with studies in the comments and she proceeds to reply 4 times calling me a joke, an antivaxxer and just generally being a condescending know it all.
This prompted me to have a look at her profile.
Her background/story?
A “former antivax mom” who has seen the light and now studies nursing while preaching the pro-vaccine gospel, repenting for her former antivax sins.
Her profile links to backtothevax.com. Catchy name. Let’s have look.
Such a noble calling, masking up and becoming an antivax apostate to ensure every last child gets their product injections.
So heartwarming. Ok no big deal thus far right, just a worried mom trying to right her past sins. However I just couldn’t shake the feeling that something was up. After all I have some experience with these types.
You know, they masquerade as independent, science promoters who are simply trying to do right by humanity but in reality they are invariably funded by big pharma or the government.
I decided to have a good look at the website and on the “about us” page it links to:
