To be clear none of the people @SecKennedy mentioned work in the National Center for Immunizaton and Respiratory Diseases at CDC. He has not been briefed by experts. Where is he getting his information on your health? Thanks @SenatorLujan for that important question.

As usual, the mainstream media attacks me for something I didn’t say in order to distract from the truth of what I did say. At yesterday’s Cabinet meeting, I said: “There are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it’s highly

Can’t wait to see how this turns out. Sound bites discrediting scientists are as much bullets as those that shattered my window in building 24. CDC science is not the issue. The dismantling of public health by people who should lift it up is. Don’t trust this FALSE narrative.

To be clear…the administration didn’t just let the patient go. This was a lethal injection to kill CDC.

FALSE: The volume of fluid in a vaccine is .3-1mL. Let’s say that kids get 50 doses of vaccines in 18 years. Max 50mL in 18 years is 2.7 mL per year. That is 60 drops of water a year—15% of a soda can per year. Please have someone other than #RFKJrResignNOW brief POTUS.

Trump on Autism: Obviously, something that is artificially induced, whether it’s the vaccines in terms of these massive vaccines twice the size of a jar like that, a glass of water like that, into a baby’s body.
