You can't say 'the CDC is good but here's how they could have handled Covid better.' You have to say 'the CDC would be good were it not exclusively staffed by sinister enemies of public health.' But now your rhetoric locks you into being a wrecker, since no other policy fits the paranoid picture.
So you get Stephen Miller saying - and probably believing! or at least believing he believes - not that having a center for disease control is a bad idea (too modern! Make America Medieval Again.) But that we need to let RFK wreck it to restore normal confidence in it. bsky.app/profile/josi...
