The Second Term of Donald J. Trump as President of the United States of America

We told you so. Ten years ago, we told you. America is being run by people with zero medical background making objectively wrong medical decisions for children.

We hate being right.

Why Is Pete Hegseth Purging Women From Command? Doug Wilson Is Why.​

He preaches holy war, iron discipline, and male dominance. And one of his disciples runs the Pentagon.​

A core tenet of Wilson’s beliefs is that a patriarchal society, what he calls “biblical masculinity,” is both a religious mandate and “cultural gluten,” as he wrote in his 2023 book, Mere Christendom.
“God has called men to be aggressive leaders. If they fail to follow through, then they are disobeying God.”
For Wilson’s followers, manliness isn’t optional.

 
Just a suggestion - take your medical advice from doctors and not from RFK Jr or Trump. Neither of those two have any medical background.

Donald Trump just signed an executive order gutting the childhood vaccine schedule. The revolt against it has a Republican doctor out front.

He signed it Monday in the Oval Office, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at his shoulder. The order calls for the MMR vaccine, one shot protecting against measles, mumps and rubella, to be given as three separate shots at three separate visits.

Those single shots are not sold in the United States, and the White House acknowledged it. "That doesn't exist in the United States, so I don't know where he's getting that from," said Dr. Katherine Matthias, a pediatrician in South Carolina.

The same order cuts the list of diseases American kids are supposed to be vaccinated against from 18 to 11, by the White House's own count. Hepatitis B drops to high-risk children only. Flu and COVID become a conversation to have with your doctor. It lands in the worst measles year this country has recorded in 35 years, just as kids head back to school.

At the signing, Trump explained the medicine himself, comparing the dose to "a bottle of soda" and telling reporters, "It's inconvenient, it's five stops, but it's something that I think will have a huge impact on autism." Vaccines do not cause autism. The CDC says there is no evidence of any benefit in splitting the MMR shot, and that the vaccine is far safer than the diseases it prevents.

Then the wall went up, and out front was a Republican. Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana is a physician, chairs the Senate health committee, and cast the deciding vote that made Kennedy health secretary, on Kennedy's promise not to change the childhood vaccine schedule.

"I'm a doctor. This executive order is wrong," Cassidy wrote Monday. "Vaccines are overwhelmingly safe. Vaccines are effective. Vaccines DO NOT cause autism." He added: "Parents should listen to their child's pediatrician about vaccines rather than listening to an inaccurate executive order."

He was not alone. The president of the American Academy of Pediatrics said the new recommendations are intended to "sow confusion so that more people doubt the importance of vaccines." More than two dozen states and the District of Columbia have already rejected this administration's vaccine schedule and follow the pediatricians' guidelines instead.

When the administration tried a version of this plan in January, a federal judge blocked it in March. "It will not go into effect and will almost certainly be blocked by the courts," said Lawrence Gostin, who teaches law at Georgetown.

And win or lose in court, there is money riding on the word "recommended." By law, insurers must cover, at no cost, the vaccines the CDC's advisory panel recommends, and that is the panel Kennedy replaced with his own picks. Un-recommending a vaccine is how a free shot can start costing a family money.

A signature is not medicine. The schedule your children's doctor follows did not change Monday, and the right person to ask about their shots is still their pediatrician.

"A picture is worth a thousand words" on average.
This one is worth a fortune.

Trump's is the look of disappointment, perceived betrayal, catalyzed by election day double digits away, Republican prospect grim.

DJ, what did you THINK was going to happen?
