Dear President Trump,
The one fucking good thing you ever did was speeding up the process to get the COVID vaccine to Americans. The vaccine that probably saved your life. Your HHS Secretary is destroying the one good thing you've ever done.

Check your sources. One of the techniques of dictators is to spread disinformation. PBS, ProPublica, NPR, Mother Jones, are all reliable. If you are watching FOX you are asking to be lied to.
