Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.
😞😡
We need to look at the link between Putin and Trump.
Defunding the operation in order to make it look horrible is Trump's forte. He'll come up with some half-baked solution and claim he's a hero.
***EVEN IF VACCINES DID CAUSE AUTISM IT'S NOT THE WORST DAMN THING TO HAPPEN TO YOUR KID*** Honestly part of the problem is that no one acknowledges the ableist BS behind all the fabricated Autism fear. There are millions of us. We are just built different. We aren't broken. It's not a disease.
I’d rather an autistic kid than a kid dead from something that was easily avoided. I’d rather an autistic kid than any of these arseholes
Aaaaaand they are the ones cutting Medicaid $$ that children and adults w autism, especially those with high support needs, rely on for their daily survival!!!! I mean... obviously the goal is eradication. They are sick eugenicists. F them!!!
As bad as I thought it was going to be, trust me it was bad, this is sooo much worse.😥
Well, that is Leatherface's schtick.
@papst-ny.bsky.social
Trump and RFK be like: I really need you to find 11,780 links between autism and vaccines. Doctors and scientists: Huh?
I’ve been autistic all my life and I didn’t even have vaccines until I was about five years old. Yes we were poor.
There are 2 main reasons for the increase in Autism diagnosis from a few decades ago. 1) the broadened definition - more people are meeting this definition now than previously. 2) increased screening at wellness visits for children to look for signs of autism. publichealth.jhu.edu/2025/is-ther...
This is also why more rare diseases and conditions like Ehlers-Danlos/MCAS are being found in people. Not because of attention seeking but because of delayed diagnosis. It took 38 years to understand why my allergies didn't cooperate with medicines and my asthma was extremely difficult at times.🤷♀️🔬🧬🦓
Inbreeding in the bible belt should be a priority
We need to investigate the link between Viagra and Autism! I mean…….there’s definitely a reason the shrimp 🦐 is limp.
Why have they never looked at Autism and prenatal ultrasounds?
RFK Junior is killing people. He is going to continue killing people. You have to stop him from killing people. I don’t know what you have to do, but you’re gonna have to fucking do it.
These people were deeply involved with pushing the COVID jab and lies. They were going to be fired. They quit first and will all end up with high paying jobs with the interests they were serving instead of those of US citizens? They are not brave or moral. They are just doing what is best for them
And what’s best for them is making money.
They will NOT find anything because they’re not scientists. First off autism is found IN YOUR GENES. No autism in genes, no amount of pollution will give you autism. Sometimes pollution DOES bring it out — but again IT MUST BE THERE IN YOUR GENES. scientists have known this for a decade.
Kennedy Jr must be fired…
All this does is damage the health of people with disabilities, who have now been told they are tragedies. These people don’t even care. They don’t look at us as human beings. They look at us as leeches.
We can no longer trust any statistic the CDC puts out now. If we have outbreaks we won’t know.
I hope those experts come to Europe or Canada. The head of zoonotic diseases was fired....in the midst of bird flu and covid.... crazy.
And we are going to respond to them that there is a link between not having the vaccines and people getting sick and dying. And we need to respond to them like that every time they peddle nonsense...
We know what the solutions are (2A).
Which is, now, at least 30 years old. Give it up, Fundamentalists!
Vaccines save lives, they don't cause autism. Autism saves lives as many research scientists & engineers are on the spectrum. Those with autism have made a positive contribution to society unlike Trump, RFK jr & Trump's administration.
People should realize that autism was just as prevalent in the 20's, 50's. What the difference is we now know about autism today. Before, they were put in asylum or deemed difficult and crazy or hard of learning. Many labels before research by the medical community diagnosed Autism. Before vaccines.
RFK has no biomedical experience. There's no evidence vax causes autism. Also, classification of autism has changed over decades making it seem like there's lots more autistic people than before.
I bet he knew, just as the rest of the family does.
i couldn't continue to besmirch his father's initials. been calling him rifky jr. for awhile now.
👆👆
I am 59 and was recently diagnosed with autism. I have lived with it all my life but never knew what it was until now. People like RFK only add to the confusion and lies about autism, nobody should be listening to him. He's extremely dangerous.
i'm audhd & a former special education teacher. rifky jr. is a real threat to us. relieved my rep & senator have been working tirelessly against him.
Thankfully I live in the UK, but what happens in America has a nasty habit of getting repeated in the UK. 😡😡😡
I dread seeing the outcome of this during the school year.
So tired of the BS. Was stopping by my brother's place last Saturday. Somehow he got on the "he's heard the Covid vaccine has killed people" crap. I laid into his butt with a long rant about known relatives that died from not being vaccinated.
We’ve lost too many to misinformation. Vaccines save lives period. The science is solid, even if the noise is loud.
Let me guess. He “ heard” it on FOX? I had 2 people in my family die from Covid who wouldnt mask or get the shot 😖. You just cant get past the brainwashing sometimes. Its so GD sad!! And infuriating! Cannot wait for him to drop dead!
“We need to look at the obvious link between [Taylor Swift/Big Bird/Game Boys/Necco Wafers, take your pick] and autism. So sayeth my brain worm — RFKJr
Well, all the Meritless MAGA are good at is lying and lying and lying and lying — also corruption, stealing, cruelty, wife beating, rape, alcoholism, pedophilia, being fake Christians, and worship of a loser, felon & pedophile
They're coming after autistic people, make no mistake about it.
No...we need to look at the LINK between INSANITY and Robert F. Kennedy,Jr.
And one of the ways information gets distorted is by terming it "misinformation" or "disinformation" instead of just stating it in terms people understand: THIS IS A LIE.

Bobby Brainworm will kill millions
They've been pushing that narrative all along. Those senators that voted for RFK Jr knew full well he was lying. That hearing was a FARCE. 🤬🤬🤬
i have autism i had it the second i took my first breath after popping out my momma's coochie before i ever got vaccinated
We need her voice amplified a million times over the country until people start to get how dangerous RFK,Jr and his anti-vax conspiracy theories are!! 🤬 Thank you Dr. Kressly and Dr. Gupta for speaking the truth.
It’s really hard to argue about vaccine safety and policies when Themis admin took away the funding required for research and analysis. It’s the same as starting the fire and saying the building was a fire hazard.
Pure fact 👍🏻
(CNN Breaking News)— President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he will be awarding his former attorney and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani with the Presidential Medal of Freaks, which is the highest civilian honor of asshole. The medal will be presented at Four Seasons Garage!😆😅😂🤣
And all because he was in an accident. The notion of giving a Presidential Medal of Honor to Rudy Giuliani is absurd, and is another example of just how much of a joke this administration really is.
Wonder if his face will melt some more at the ceremony. I'll be watching to see WHO presents the medal.
Oh come on! The finest research done by Mary Baker Eddy proved that all sickness arises from God. If God's upset with you s/he makes you sick. #ChristianScience When my mother was in Tulane Medical School she made a point of studying in a Christian Science Reading Room. #QuietLocation
They could have looked without destroying everything first. This is stupid reasoning on the face of it. We're supposed to accept it like this makes sense. Nope!
They start by getting rid of the evidence. That's the proof that they're lying -- and know that they're lying. It's not a surprise -- JFK Jr's modus operandi has always been to pretend that the contrary evidence doesn't exist, and offer sloppy, retracted, and/or fraudulent research in its place.
This ten your old piece was one of the missing links. Ghislaine Maxwell's dad, Robert, created for profit scientific publishing and censoring science ever since. Robert was a KGB operative. bsky.app/profile/ludi...
All this crap goes back to Jenny McCarthy and her insane ranting about vaccines, autism, and other things. She’s a playmate and “comedian” with zero medical background. She’s “researched” (found things she agreed with) and claims chelation therapy helped him. RFKJR parrots the same bullshit.
Blame Oprah. She gave her the airtime to spread her BS
I’m glad that you mentioned her. Jenny McCarthy is one of the problems in all of this. She and other celebrities are spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories about cures for autism and how it’s tied to the vaccines. She and them have done so much damage.
I hope there are tons of lawsuits. Evidence based data has proven that the basis of autism is generally based on genetics. There are many families who have people with autism throughout their family tree. That's not the result of the measles vaccine
I mean, people with the genetic mutations consistent with autism may have it better or worse depending on environmental factors, diet, etc. Like, autism is often accompanied by major immune system divergences we don't understand and haven't studied well
That and on top of the administration claiming that they have discovered a cure for autism has made for a very toxic environment. They are exploiting desperate families who are seeking answers as well as hindering research that could lead to different treatments.
What is important for people to understand is that the same so called experts who have been claiming that there is a link between vaccines and autism are also selling books and products promoting this garbage.
Autism has existed a long time. Likely since prehistory, but it wasn't called that. No link between vaccines and autism has ever been proven. The lack of vaccines are proven to allow things like measles, mumps, polio, and way more to infect people and spread.
If you think vaccines cause autism, you should see a psychologist about your obvious mental inadequacies. Literally, everyone else the world over thinks that about any anti-vaxxer.
Psychologists can't treat stupidity lol sorry to tell you that
No, but they can treat ignorance.
I'm not sure that can, see stupidity lol
We’re all not as stupid as drumpf and his pathetic cabinet members 🤬🤬🤬
And we've already been through this once
Why do I keep wondering if we soon gonna have to sneak across the border into Canada to get a Covid vaccine? ☹️
Because it’s looking like that’s going to be the only way, unless some high-n-mighty in the government says so. They’re making it necessary for people who are immunocompromised to have them give you permission to get your vaccine. These idiots are killing us. They don’t care.
Because Trump is so greedy and grafty he might work it out so you can get vaccinated in the US if you pay a lot of money, most of which goes to him.
You nailed it! 👍🏼 If there’s a penny to be made, Trump will steal it!
I'm trying to decide which state he'll end up, trying to trade to Denmark for Greenland. He wouldn't dare choose California, but Washington, Oregon? Maybe.
He HATES Pritzker so maybe Illinois too.
I’d be happy to be part of Denmark 🇩🇰
I would too. Actually, any Scandinavian country is fine with me! 😉
It's already been scientifically established that there is no link. RFK, Jr just wants to invent one on paper so he can justify all the damage he's directly caused. Especially to Samoa.
#KennedyHasGotToGo #KennedyWillKillMillionsOfKids Why haven't we gotten rid of him yet?
Full interview and more from Meidas Health here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...
I say let them study autism See if environmental mitochondrial challenges change the DNA of sperm...causing....autism
Stupid parents (educated or not) will kill their children for politics It’s the ALMOST the same with school murders. But loving parents send their kiddos to school every school day. Nobody I know chooses the murder school that day. Good parents can still demand vaccines. For meow.
The same people bitching about low birth rates ….
Fuck an editer [sic]
Next up: A study to see if the earth is really round.
👆
The people deserve to know!
😂🤣😂
There's only more autism now because we have learned that it's a very large spectrum. A lot of people went undiagnosed before.
A Brit named Andrew Wakefield came up with the link between vaccines & autism because he was being bribed to fabricate the results. He lost his medical license.
He's trying to kill everyone who has the ability to critically think.
I will forever curse Jenny McCarthy and others that perpetuated the unfounded lie about vaccines causing autism.
I suspect Baron is on the spectrum which is why the felon-in-chief appointed an anti-vaccine guy to the head spot (or a primary reason).
Hi
Thank you Doctor
They need to look at the link between vaccines and children LIVING. But this is a death-cult.
If we reframe antivax to astrology? Imagine Kennedy being into astrology. He'd wander about asking only astrologers if astrology is valid. He'd bloviate about Big Astronomy and Big Science destroying all the claimed proofs of astrology. Sound familiar? He does that, only with vaccines.
Horrifying!!!🤬
The researcher, Andrew Wakefield, who first proposed this had his medical license revoked for falsifying his data. Fraud. He then fled to America and now works for suspiciously well-funded anti-vaxx organizations. America...land of the free to cheat you and home of the grifters.
Andrew Wakefield’s bio: en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?... The Lancet article: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lancet_...
Many people don't know or remember this 'Vaccines cause Autism' conspiracy theory started with a fraud. Then promoted by a Playmate, Jenny McCarthy. Then funded by snake oil companies into a very big business with very large profits. I think healthcare insurance companies are in it too.
I remember nutjob Jenny McCarthy getting on that bandwagon, my kids were pretty young then. 🤬
Indeed.
Let’s not forget that Oprah gave Jenny McCarthy the platform to spread this nonsense. And promoted Dr. Oz.
Yes. Oprah gave a lot of quacks a platform to spread their nonsense. Oz, Doctor Phil, and Jenny McCarthy the Playmate Epidemiologist.
Yes but they weren't given full control to take over the CDC & make those changes. RFK Jr is worse, no medical expertise, a former heroin addict who allagedly had a brain worm basing decisions on his own personal uneducated subjective intuitions. It's kind of like witchcraft only less believable.
Essentially, the damage for generations is incalculable, unless the worst-case scenario, i.e., an epidemic or pandemic, clearly reveals the powerlessness of this cerebrum syphilitic. It's simply disgusting, unnecessary, and even wanton.
I'm less hopeful on this. There is a stripe in American thinking that allowed over 1 million to die preventable deaths without short term or long term political consequences. Any other society wouldn't tolerate RFK Jr. after experiencing a pandemic. Guess a million plus deaths wasn't bad enough.
I really didn't mean to express great hope. I'm just warning against a scenario that makes the seven-digit death toll from Covid look like a child's birthday party.
Health insurance companies make a killing on vaccines. This comment sounds more like a conspiracy theory than what you're complaining about lol why would health insurance companies try to stop vaccines? They have to pay MORE when people are sick and make less money then
The damage that asshat did is incalculable
I read about Andrew Wakefield several years ago in a Chicago Tribune investigation about autism and the quacks who exploit these families. Even though he’s been discredited, the anti vaccine crowd is still using his research to spread misinformation and propaganda. It’s despicable.
What was once the GOP - a political party - has become a death cult. The goal is to maximize the body count, because a population which is busy being sick and dying is far easier to control.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov ALL people that want a Covid vaccine should be allowed to get one. FIX this, stop Kennedy from blocking anyone’s right to preventable care.
Dude, RFK Jr said SPECIFICALLY that he was going to reveal the CAUSE of autism BY September...not IN September, BY September! That literally means BEFORE September and here we are, two days into September...wheres the earth shattering announcement?
RFK Jr. is even worse than everyone thought, and everyone thought he had no qualifications at all. He is a public health hazard and should be impeached. To hell with firing him or asking him to resign. Congress, get rid of him NOW! #ImpeachRFKjr Worth a government shutdown come budget time❗️
“We need to look at the link between vaccines and autism”? How about checking the link between vaccines and the disease & death they prevent?
RFK Jr. is now attacking our Nurse's Unions! You just can't make this shit up! Trump almost killed our Medical Professionals off during COVID. Guess, he wasn't satisfied w/all the Trump Plague killed due to his incompetence!
If you take your car to a dentist for repair, because you don’t trust car repair experts… If you go to a proctologist for your knee replacement surgery… If you go to a politician for treatment for dysphoria, well, we see what they’re doing with that. Use your imagination! RFK is dangerously insane!!
I just feel terrible for the innocent children who will suffer because their parents listened to RFK Jr's "experts".
I will say it again and again. If an innocent non vaccinated child gets measles for example, CPS should be called and or parents should be prosecuted. Children do not deserve ignorant parents.
Then they'll defend cps..... crazy.
* defund. Sorry
Let’s bring back the days of polio and smallpox-fun times for humanity. Absurd and criminal, RFK jr is profiting off the inevitability of child death and when he releases his findings on Autism he should be sued and incarcerated.
It's criminal.
Trump and his bootlickers are blatantly pro-childhood disease.
📌
This is what Trump supporters wanted and they’ll continue to vote for this in perpetuity.
You know there’s probably a link of autism to like MTBE that used to be used in gasoline or something where they are protecting their corporate masters
Bill Cassidy has already killed Americans - an investigation by Bill Cassidy is MEANINGLESS! He had his chance to stop the destruction but WAS NOT interested - he prefers DEATH like Ernst!
Autism has always been around. The kids high on the spectrum were the genius kids in school who couldn’t get a date, there were a few in every school. The midrange kids were the ones picked on by bullies and quietly did their own thing. There were lots of them. The most severe kids were kept home.
Ask them for the scientific study that shows mercury is the cause of autism.
There needs to be far more media focus on RFK, Jr.'s financial motivations for his anti-vax position: RFK Jr.’s view of autism is wrong — but profitable wapo.st/4g6Wm3e Excerpt: "Kids may die, but Robert Kennedy will continue to cash in." www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
It was always about the grift. Just like his boss President Trump, RFK Jr. along with the other con artists are exploiting desperate families with their stupid theories just to make money. That’s why he came up with this garbage about a cure.
My feeling is that it is caused by highly processed foods and some children are very sensitive to the chemicals they are being fed. If vaccines caused autism, we’d all be autistic.
This is almost definitely true, specifically soy. Isoflavones change the functionality of the limbic system in some people with mast cell divergences. So like, technically we are not allergic to soy, technically it just makes the mast cells overproduce histamine, and there is no IgG reaction
It's been the same story debunked over and over again as the village idiots keep blabbling back into existence. They have no facts! It's 100% Horseshit.
There are several cases studies about rising thyroid disorders after COVID vaccines. There is some evidence that people with endolimbic divergences are affected adversely by vaccines. Not at all how the anti vaxxers state it. Just thought you might want to know this.
37% of people in the US are worried the rabies vaccine will give their dog autism. Right wing nut news is no joke & it has upended public safety.
The anti-science is the insanity. Where consensus replaces evidence. The American political press no match for this subject at all. If anything, complicit. You don’t poll scientific fact.
Americans should be truly outraged on a massive scale. Are they? Or, are they buying into RFK's constant bullshit, disinformation drumbeat that attempts to connect autism with vaccines? Already, some people are refusing to have their children vaccinated. This kook & crackpot can't be gone too soon.
When the “proof is in the pudding” and an exponential increase in illness, infectious diseases, which result in long term adverse effects or mortality… they may be ‘outraged’ but it will be too late.
It is already too late in some respects. I have seen a headline about rabies and a bug that may be responsible for spreading a virus. And this is on top of a measles outbreak that was allowed to spread to several states.
We're in for some very serious times. Between the orange, elderly golfer and Mr. worm brain, they're determined to kill us all.
Target the libs, woman, immigrants, any possible blue voters.
Right.
Those of us who have been enraged by him for ten years will continue to be enraged — and the rest of 'em will, sadly, learn a very hard lesson (as, even more sadly, it's their children who will pay the price).
Alas, all true.
And the purpose of the lie is to eventually defund public health care by delegitimizing the science that it has always relied on. Capitalism must eventually delegitimize even reason to survive. It once saw it expedient to abolish slavery to survive; now it is science’s turn to die before gold.
Haven’t they been doing that for a while?????
for the fucking LAST TIME: autistics have strong jeans.
Autism existed before vaccines. I know this for a fact, because no normie would travel the planet in order to catalogue every plant and animal according to hyper-specific rules & a very specific layout for drawings. See also: branding style guides, cartography, and the scientific method.
Thank you. That made me smile. Spot on.
Hugs!
Completely shocked Jenny McCarthy and her bullshit don't have an appointment at this stage.
Your attention to VOTING in a BLUE WAVE to regain sanity and adherence to the US Constitution and laws, is required!
Imagine the lies we'll hear this week makes sick.
There is no need in 2025 for any physician to be forced to watch any age of person, to die because a dumb administration time travels to pre-World War 1
They push doing nothing instead of making a decision to go to the doctor and get vaccinated. overwhelmed parents are afraid of making the active choice and choose the easier passive one.We need to explain that parenting is making active choices for safety,seat belts, bike helmets,vaccinations etc
RFK JR. IS AN UNQUALIFIED, SELFISH, POWER-HUNGRY NARCISSIST, WHO HAS BEEN, AND CONTINUES TO ENDANGER THE HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELL-BEING OF ALL AMERICANS, AND MANY OTHERS GLOBALLY💯😥🤥⚠️💯😥🤥⚠️🚩🛑!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know, there's some maga out there that are pretty sure that kennedy is wacko. They need to quit going along.
💯👏
America needs to look at the link between Conservatism and treason. And the link between Republicanism and racism. And the link between Conservatism, Republicanism, and pedophilia.
I think you could have added the link to fascism.
So, we’ll pay you to have babies, but you can’t vaccinate them and if they live to school age, they’ll be killed with a gun in school. #fuckthisplace
They’re trying to establish a nonexistent link between vaccines and autism while trying to deny a very existent link between Trump and Epstein.
Remember, they monetize every lie.
RFK Jr tried to bully a respected science journal to remove a Danish study of 950,000 kids that disproved his ignorant claim. They refused to do it. He used AI to generate a report that supported his nonsense that included made up studies. Why he still has a job is beyond me. He’s a liar.
He's ki11ing us for the felon. That's why he's still there. Notice Shitler never gets his own hands dirty. He hires other people to carry out his wet dreams.
He's a liar is exactly why he still has a job. What angers me is that he killed 83 children with his anti-vaxx lies and was not held accountable for those murders... Because the Idiocracy is a shelter for rich, fascist, pedophile criminals. And for war criminals.
He still has a job because he was given it by a person just as witless as he is.
A person with a son on the spectrum and needing something to blame for it.
The phrase "the fish stinks from the head" means that when an organization is failing, the root cause is often its leadership. The head of “secretary of health and human services” is RFK.
What was once the GOP - a political party - has become a death cult. The goal is to maximize the body count, because a population which is busy being sick and dying is far easier to control.
He must have some monetary incentive to keep propagating his dangerous lies. Unless he’s just an ignorant sadist like most of Trump’s cabinet appointees.It’s hard to imagine why someone would purposely put fellow citizens’, especially our children’s, health at such risk. He needs to be fired.
That is exactly why he was chosen
