Some folks are getting confused by this scenario but the upshot is that vaccines are already approved on the basis of placebo-controlled trials, what RFK is trying to do is eliminate vax updates, which don’t require placebo controlled studies. So basically trying to kill annual flu/COVID updates.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

I'm far from a Biden stan. I abhor his stance on Gaza. But his administration managed the US economy about as well as it's possible to do and even started implementing the reindustrialization everyone claims to want, and it's beyond absurd that the result was Trump getting to steal the copper wire.

Going to take the controversial position that an active-duty officer sending out an all-hands email to repudiate the VP's remarks is tantamount to submitting a request to be relieved of duty. And I say that as someone who agrees that Vance's remarks were odious.
