"Are you supportive of these onesies??" Sen. Sanders pressed RFK Jr. on onesies sold by the Children's Health Defense, which he chaired until recently. The onesies are inscribed with “Unvaxxed, Unafraid” and “No vax. No problem.” www.statnews.com/2025/01/29/r...

A couple of minutes ago, RFK Jr. said "I was called a conspiracy theorist because I said fluoride lowered IQ. Last week JAMA published a metareview of 87 studies saying there is a direct inverse correlation between IQ loss ..." we covered that study (& why many researchers took issue w/ it)
