CDC Director Dr. Susan Monarez was fired by the White House just hours ago after accusing RFK Jr. of “weaponizing public health.” Four other senior CDC doctors resigned the same day.
A monumental shift🎉

RFK Jr.’s policy changes on COVID-19 vaccines:
1. End federal recs for healthy kids & pregnant women
2. Limit access to 65+ & high-risk adults
3. End blanket EUA; require case-by-case decisions under 65
4. Purge entrenched vaccine divisions inside CDC

They overplayed their hand.

June 9 Kennedy dismissed all 17 ACIP members.
A reset: a smaller panel - connived June 11 tasked with reviewing the entire childhood vaccine schedule—MMR timing, Hep-B at birth, and beyond
You thought you got your vaccine through; you actually got was your worst nightmare👻

Dr. Susan Monarez lasted just months as CDC Director.
But part of the Borg Federal complex since 2006
As the Moore trial showed, “consulting experts” too often means consulting another liar.

I hold justified scorn for each of four other directors who resigned.
Their policies inflicted pain, suffering, and death nationwide.
Not an exaggeration and I promise I will be tearing into that at a later date
Today is a good day for the country.
