Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Trump will exploit the death of a Ukrainian girl to bash a US politician, but he doesn’t seem to give a shit about the 15,000 Ukrainian civilians killed and 57,000 injured by his buddy Putin & Russia.
Trump, speaking to troops in North Carolina, is now attacking ex-governor and Democratic Senate candidate Roy Cooper as a "disaster" who was culpable for a woman getting her "throat slit"
