ICYMI: Last night @jeremyfaust.bsky.social revealed that Drs. Makary and Prasad of the FDA have lied to all of us with their claims that COVID19 vaccines “killed 10 children”.
The scientists that did the work found that there were ZERO deaths that they could be certain were caused by the vaccines.

Scoop: FDA vaccine chief’s memo cited 10 pediatric Covid-19 vaccine deaths—but the agency’s own analysis found 0–7.
Dr. Vinay Prasad circulated a memo before FDA scientists finished their work. His conclusions overshot what the agency’s own analysts ultimately found.

This article opens with a 3-year-old forced to represent herself in court. We live in a fundamentally sick country.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

I want to see Trump sit down and personally sign all 1,600 pardons he used auto pen on for the Jan 6th insurrectionists.
Either that or want to see police go and pick all of them up right now and throw them all back in prison.
If Biden’s auto pen pardons are no good then neither are Trump’s.
