Science

the "Tylenol during pregnancy" thing is obviously bullshit, but I think the other bullshit they're announcing at the same time will ultimately have a more harmful impact:

White House officials are also expected to suggest that a form of vitamin B that is typically used in conjunction with cancer treatment could be used to treat autism.

there is a long history of grifters claiming they can "treat" or "cure" autistic people, especially autistic children. giving a White House stamp of approval to the idea that you can "treat" autism with fucking vitamin supplements is going to turbo-charge those grifters.

these Behind the Bastards episodes are worth listening to if you want to know more:

But it’s a lie that fits his agenda so they’re going to roll with it

Another weird distraction from the Epstein files

That's odd. I thought it was the MMR vaccine.

Also a good way to deflect people from thinking about all the other shit they put in your food!

So the vaccines are safe now...?

I’m assuming “not conclusively” is a massive understatement here, given the usual levels of plausibility.

This stinks of a compromise, like RFK needs to announce some “cause of autism” because that’s his entire base of political support, but he can’t say “vaccines” like his base wants, because doing so would be so beyond the pale for the public health professionals in the organization that they might just refuse to work with him, ruining his ability to use his position to grift.
