Promises Made, Promises Broken: RFK Jr. Keeps COVID Vaccines From Children

The velocity with which RFK Jr. continues to break the promises he made during his confirmation hearings is simply incredible. As we get further and further away from those hearings, which amazingly occurred only 21 months ago, we may lose sight of the assurances Kennedy gave directly to Congress about his plans if appointed to...

RFK Jr. Assclown Jambaroo: Anti-Vaxxer Bullshit, A New Panel Of Misfits, EMFs, & Chemtrails, Oh My!

Well, as we previously discussed was going to occur, RFK Jr. gave his keynote speech and appearance at the Children's Health Defense conference of anti-vaxxer conspiracy-mongers, and he was certainly firmly on brand. In fact, he did so much to make news during and around this appearance that we're going to have to break this...

RFK Jr. To Give Keynote At Conference For Anti-Vaxxer Organization He Co-Founded

Whatever mask RFK Jr. was attempting to wear to convince the world he isn't a pure anti-vaxxer clown is now officially off. The man who has spent his time as Secretary of HHS overseeing the worst outbreak of measles in America in decades, who just can't stop citing fake health studies and misinterpreting others, who...

Reporting Indicates RFK Jr. Directly Intervened To Keep PA Deaths Off CDC Measles Report

The measles outbreak, that began in America nearly two years ago, has only increased in velocity. We recently talked about the deaths of two children in Pennsylvania who both died while infected with measles. I'm altering my language slightly here from that original post in which I described those children as having died of measles...

Senators Call For RFK Jr.’s Resignation After More Emails Suggest He Lied In His Confirmation Hearings

There are plenty of reasons to call for RFK Jr. to resign or be fired. There are plenty of reasons to call for him to be investigated. There's his complete dereliction of duty when it comes to the American measles outbreak. There's his sneaky misrepresentations carried out as he moonlights on a government-funded cooking show...

Irony: Catholic Bishops Tell FL Officials To Respect Its Religious Liberty To Not Accept Religious Exemptions For Vaccines

The country is continuing to reel from multiple infectious disease outbreaks in America, even as childhood vaccination rates continue to fall. Measles, cyclosporiasis, whooping cough: you don't actually need me to go on. With RFK Jr. using his position as Secretary of HHS to further muddy the waters on vaccines and their safety, some states...

Two Die In Pennsylvania Of Measles Marking The First Deaths Of 2026

Last year, as decades of work by RFK Jr. to undermine vaccines with false links to deaths and autism culminated in his appointment to lead HHS, America saw the largest resurgence of measles cases in something like three decades. Three people died, including two children, all unvaccinated. Kennedy mostly ignored the outbreak from the beginning...

Doctors, Medical Associations Already Giving A Giant Middle Finger To Trump’s Vaccine EO

As expected, this didn't take very long. Earlier this week we pointed out that Donald Trump supplanted RFK Jr. as the world's most infamous anti-vaxxer when he vomited out a bonkers executive order that reduced the recommended childhood vaccination schedule for American children, pared down which diseases were recommended for vaccination, and demanded that the...

Donald Trump Just Became The World’s Most Famous Anti-Vaxxer Nonsense Peddler

When it comes to the bullshit, batshit-crazy anti-vaxxer movement that currently has the United States in its un-scientific grip, I've focused most of my attention on RFK Jr. And, frankly, for good reason. For arguably decades, but definitely for the last five to ten years, RFK Jr. was the most infamous anti-vaxxer in the world....

RFK Jr. Just Embarrassed Himself Publicly On CNN

This post is going to come with something of a warning label. RFK Jr. went on CNN this past weekend for an interview with Dana Bash. I'm going to post the entirety of that interview immediately below. Before you watch it, get yourself a bib, or some paper towels, or wrap yourself in one of...
