Nice try government, but this free thinker isn't fooled so easily.
RFK: don't take the vaccine! Oz: take the vaccine! Trump: *shits pants
"Mr president, Brad Dongnozzle from CNN, is the shitting of your pants your way of agreeing or disagreeing about the vaccine?"
"What? Wait, I shit my pants? I don't remember doing that..." {shits pants again} "Oh, man, Putin isn't going to be happy about this!" {shits pants once again}
Kompromat is meaningless when shitting your pants on live TV while denying all evidence of your pedophilic activities still can't take you down.
RFK: You saw it here first folks, the vaccines will make the democrats shit your pants.
Thanks Obama!
Oh, now you want us to take vaccines?
I thought the vaccines had 5G chips in them, and turned our brains to mush!
.........god we live in the dumbest timeline.
My MAGA ex husband told our son that the vaccine had HIV in it after he already got it. Luckily our son believes in science so he was able to figure out that his dad had just gone coo coo but it’s still a pretty scary thing to tell a child
Jfc, that’s abusive…
I think he genuinely believes all of this Q anon stuff. We don’t have much contact with him anymore because he would go on long rants about how Antifa stormed the capital and other crazy q anon stuff. He also started bringing guns everywhere. He helped me canvas for Obama in 2008. This cult has sucked a lot of people in. He used to be pretty normal idk it pretty crazy. Unfortunately, I think most American families have people like this in them
Thank you for sharing that personal note. I'm so sorry to hear what you and your son had to go through. The fact that your ex even helped you with canvassing for Obama in 2008 and then for things to turn around like this is mind-boggling.
But you're right to point out that the cult has sucked in so many people, particularly some who used to be quite normal at an earlier point. This is very sad and I feel for you, your son, and everyone who has suffered from this.
I think that was just the covid vaccine (as if it matters). Re-upped my 5G signal with a booster just this weekend! Feeling connected.
The dying is all fun and games for Republicans until their data tells them that now is not a good time for another pandemic shut down.
We had the flu of 1918 then covid 19. It will not take 100 years for the next big one. The medical industrial complex has not recovered from covid yet and people panicked voted Biden.
Yes, Republicans don't want another problem to fuck up their propaganda.

A problem they themselves keep causing.
The measles vaccine has always been recommended and on the schedule..
Care to explain the cause of all the measles outbreaks in South Carolina, Utah, Arizona, Florida, and Washington?
why are you making other people find information for you, the Internet's right in front of you bro
People are refusing to vaccinate their kids
The head of HHS, RFK Jr, famously killed a bunch of people in Samoa by lobbying against the measles vaccine. And Oz himself has anti-vaccine stances toward a number of other vaccines. Seems like consistent messaging may be helpful here.
The guy is still a doctor. His showed devolved quickly because there’s only so many ways to provide content for 5 days a week, but there has to be SOME part of him that knows the science and believes it.
I remember when former GOP Senate Majority Leader, and heart surgeon, Bill Frist went on Bill Maher sometime around the late 2000s, or early 2010s, and they were discussing vaccines.
Bill Maher, being the shithead that he is, was voicing his vaccine skepticism even then.
Bill Frist, whom I'm loathe to give praise to, turned away from Maher, looked directly in the camera and said that vaccines were safe and encouraged everyone to get vaccinated.
Shit like that gets you labeled a Communist in today's GOP.
I’m picturing that guy sweating over two red buttons. One says “Grifter” the other says “Doctor”.
He's a grifter more than anything else and will do whatever he believes serves his own interests, and only his own interests.
Let’s just say he’s seeing where the sails are blowing
Unfortunately that small part is currently tasked with creating a cure for Lycanthropy based on RFK's blood.
People can compartmentalize. He can be completely all over the science and believe it factually as part of medicine while also believing that spouting nonsense that is unscientific is valid if he says so, as he's a doctor. His self interest can override his knowledge, in particular if it feeds his ego, as being a celebrity doctor would.
All doctors and scientists simplify their messaging when dealing with non scientists as a means to help them understand concepts they don't have a grounding in. That simplification is often factually incorrect. It's a slippery slope.
Particularly in this modern world. Our brains in general seek order and certainty, but almost everything is on a spectrum. So when scientist talk in facts and absolutes, it's easy to negate their message with edge cases or precise sticking points that they are ignoring for simplicity. Take vaccines. They have known side effects. They are deemed safe. People can still die. Cars and planes are likewise deemed safe.
The fact that this clown is a "Top US Health Official" is a great indication of an empire in decline.
That’ll learn ‘em…. I’m sure the willfully ignorant pieces of shit will definitely start falling in line.
...at the morgue 💀

Losing voters?
Regular reminder that if you were born before 1989 you probably only got 1 measles vaccine, as was recommended at the time, and no booster. The booster bumps effectiveness up from 93% to 97%. You can ask your doctor to test your antibodies for measles immunity to see if you need it, or ask to just go ahead with the booster if you know you didn’t get it.
There's also no harm in getting the vaccine again if you're not sure whether you had it before (but did).
In the US:
- If you were born before 1957, you're presumed immune to measles.
- If you were vaccinated before 1967, you should get a booster [the original vaccine wasn't as effective as the later vaccine].
- If you were vaccinated between 1967 and 1989, you should consider a booster shot [they thought you only needed one shot, but you actually need two].
- If you were vaccinated after 1989, you are presumed immune.
Good of him to take RFKj's dick out of his mouth long enough to say this.
