Epstein-Barr, herpes, and shingles vaccines shelved should get people hounded out of society. That’s beyond anti-vaccine or anti-intellectualism. It’s reactionary know-nothingism. If there’s such a thing as technological solutionism, this is tech problematicizing.

Pam Bondi served as AG of Florida from 2011 to 2019,
the same state where Jeffrey Epstein was a resident, and the same period when victims actively brought civil suits to Florida courts seeking to overturn his controversial 2008 non-prosecution agreement.

Bondi, Lutnick, Noem, Rollins, RFK Jr, Rubio have explicitly mislead America this month. Their job is to serve America 🇺🇸, not Trump. (The other cabinet members have lied too, but I digress)

Remember when Pam Bondi sold between $1 million & $5 million in Trump Media (DJT) stock back on April 2, 2025—

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.

RFK Jr. is now blocking an updated flu vaccine for NO reason grounded in science.
American vaccine policy has been hijacked by a conspiracy theorist—yet most Republicans are happy to just sit on their hands.
They are allowing FDA policy to be dictated by DELUSION.
