𝕏 is losing it over RFK Jr.’s measles post. Meanwhile, FDA’s top vaccine regulator just resigned. Turns out Kennedy plans to EXPOSE hidden data on MMR injuries. There is a lot more going on behind the scenes than meets the eye …

RFK’s own 2024 campaign was touched by tragedy over the MMR shot. Nicole Shanahan revealed that her daughter was diagnosed with autism after the shot. “I swear to God, I gave birth to a healthy baby girl.” “And then she got a shot at 7 months of age, and by 10 months she was a different kid.”

The process of licensing the MMR and the data behind it was deeply disturbing. RFK Jr. spent years sounding the alarm about this. He did not forget all of it overnight. There’s more going on here than you think.
In the 1950s, top CDC scientists had reached a consensus that measles was a “self-limiting infection of short duration, moderate severity, and low fatality.” Severe measles cases were only caused by malnutrition, lack of Vitamin A, or a weakened immune system.

This consensus was upended for two key reasons.
1. Pharma realized the enormous profit potential in mass-vaccinating Americans for measles.
2. American scientists wanted to beat Soviet scientists, who were also working to develop a vaccine.
Fear-mongering about measles by the media and politicians only began in earnest after the vaccine was licensed and Pharma stood to lose an enormous profit center.

The MMR shot was licensed without a clean placebo-controlled study. The trials that did happen only tracked adverse events for 42 days after vaccination and discounted a host of chronic diseases and adverse events.

Despite RFK Jr.’s 𝕏 post endorsing MMR vaccination … There is more going on behind the scenes than meets the eye.
FDA’s top vaccine regulator Dr. Peter Marks just resigned over RFK’s attempts to revive MMR vaccine safety studies. “Kennedy’s team requested data on cases of brain swelling and deaths caused by the” MMR vaccines.

RFK Jr. just pledged “EVERYTHING is gonna change” with CDC vaccine policy. He pledged to fix VAERS, restore “gold standard science” and expose the truth about vaccine injuries. “None of the vaccines that are given during the first 6 months of life have ever been tested for autism—the only one was the DTP vaccine.” “They threw out that study because it was based upon CDC’s surveillance system, VAERS, and they said that system is no good.” “That begs the question, why doesn’t CDC have a functional surveillance system?” “In fact, CDC’s own study of its own system said it captures fewer than 1% of vaccine injuries.” “We’re gonna publish all of our datasets, which CDC has never done.” “We’re gonna do replication of all our studies, which CDC has never done.” “We’re gonna publish our peer review, which CDC has never done.”
Behind the scenes, RFK Jr. is taking steps to expose the truth of MMR and other vaccine injuries. But Big Pharma is the most powerful force in American politics. This is not a fight that can be won overnight.
One key Senator is working to block MAHA on behalf of Big Pharma. Senator Bill Cassidy revealed that he voted to confirm RFK Jr. only after extracting concessions on vaccine policy. If MAHA wants to direct our anger at anyone in DC for standing in our way, it’s Senator Cassidy. You won’t believe what he said about the vaccine-injured in Dr. Jay Bhattacharya’s confirmation hearing.

In response to Dr. Jay Bhattacharya’s pledge to find the truth about skyrocketing autism rates …
Senator Bill Cassidy mockingly compared the belief in a link between vaccines and autism to the belief that the world is flat and Elvis is still alive.
“There’s people who disagree that the world is round—and I say that not to minimize these people’s concerns—but people still think Elvis is alive.”
How could this be interpreted in any way other than insulting and minimizing these MAHA moms’ concerns?

MAHA is bigger than RFK Jr. While 𝕏 lost their minds over Kennedy’s MMR comment, we just got our biggest win yet in Idaho.
Idaho’s Medical Freedom Act 2.0 was just signed into law.
It BANS businesses and schools from requiring ANY “medical mandates” for employment or attendance. Businesses and schools were already banned from requiring the Covid-19 vaccine for attendance or employment based on a 2023 law, but this bill expanded that provision to ALL medical interventions.

Iowa Republicans want to END vaccine manufacturers’ immunity from lawsuits for vaccine injuries.
“A vaccine shall not be distributed, sold, or administered in this state unless the manufacturer … waives any immunity from suit for an injury arising from a design defect of the vaccine.”
Bills like this would be MAHA’s biggest wins yet, and they would pave the way for RFK Jr. and federal leaders to follow suit.
