Quack memo at Trump’s FDA announces quack opinion based on nothing but quacker.
NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.
“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

I honestly think people are being unfair to this because of who Leavitt is and what she represents.
Most of the issues are in presentation, it’s not very colorful and a couple of the sides look drier than many people like.
I would want gravy though.

The Witkoff-Ribbentrop Pact.
This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

It's easy to be numb because it's par for the course nowadays, but repeatedly calling a reporter who asks a reasonable question "stupid" is conduct unbecoming for a small-town mayor, let alone the President of the United States.
