Next is an executive order in climate change denial.
What's next? Executive order for flat earth?

Breaking news: executive orders do not bend reality.

powerlesshero111 | 12 hours ago

But they do force federal employees to enforce stupid policies. Trump has turned executive orders into bastards of what they were meant. But, on the plus side, you can invest in iron lungs and wheelchairs because polio is about to make a comeback.

Cpt_Covfefe | 10 hours ago

What's the status on the current polio vaccine and what's in circulation? Might as well get boosters or vaccinate now before it's outlawed.

powerlesshero111 | 10 hours ago

So, pretty much, if you were born before roughly 2005 you definitely got the vaccine. If after, you might have the antivaxxer parents, who think vaccines are wizard poison. Polio was erradicated from the US, but still exists worldwide, so the vaccine is readily available and actually very cheap to make. You really only need it once, but again, if people had antivaxxer parents, they are fucked. Also, measles causes immune system amnesia, so if you got the polio vaccine and then got measles, you potentially could get polio.

Like there's big reasons why vaccines are important, and RFK Jr is a full on murderer for telling people to not get them.

As if they aren’t lab distilled creations intended to dismantle our stability.

I'm worried for the children and adults that never got antibodies from the aforementioned vaccines. Even if you don't know you got it, isn't it helping everybody out to get it regardless?

I certainly believe he has malice in his soul towards other humans.

The man stopped a family drive (with other kennedys, nay, human beings) to cut out roadkill raccoon genitalia (male, female? Who knows!) and bring it home to “study”.

These are not the actions of a sane person. This was also decades ago.

He was found with a bear cub stabbed up…he “found”, and was going to make into a “rug”.

This man needed to be in jail years ago. Hes fucking weird. And gross.

The dude sounds like his innards are a single tube from his mouth to his asshole and only one can be opened at a time. It sounds like has to close his asshole like a trach tube to talk.

The man embodies inbred intelligence, down to the single point iq.

Or, before your insurance refuses to cover it. Insurance coverage of vaccines is typically based on ACIP/CDC recommendations. If they cease to recommend them, our for-profit healthcare system will likely render them unaffordable.

And we're very likely about to lose our elimination status for measles. 🤦🏻‍♀️

polioeradication.org is an excellent resource, at one point we had polio down to just two countries (Pakistan and Afghanistan) and about three dozen reported cases but there’s been some setbacks since then.

It’s heritage foundation trying to induce learned helplessness so people are docile but also the crazy making is to cause Factitious disorder imposed on another which is also called munchausen by proxy.

They try to unhinge people so there’s a higher chance they commit a crime.

More crime means more low wage prison labor.

Taylor farms accepts prison labor and they sell produce to all the major fast food restaurants.

Look at j6. They made all those people more insane then used it as an excuse to buy tons of flock cameras while hiring more staff with increased doj budgets. Their friends made trillions from this but now they’re getting rid of them because the j6’rs they hired are using them to commit felony stalking and harassment.

Not saying all officers and agents are terrible but it’s an issue all the way up to the NSA.

They'll all fold like a wet napkin as soon as they see the walls start to crumble and the canaries truly start to sing.

The only reason any of them are confident enough to say the shit they're saying out loud now is because of social media manipulation by the likes of fElon.

Strip that away and it's easy to tackle them outside their echo chamber. They can't stand together if they don't have someone regurgitating ideas for them to parrot.

That's their idea, at least. We can still turn things around. People just need to wake up and smell the fascism. We'll see how it goes.

kittenmittens4865 | 3 hours ago

RFK has said he wants to round up everyone with ADHD into “farm camps” to help heal us away from modern technology and medications. Pretty sure they want forced agricultural labor.

I assume that’s where they want to send the autistic folks too. Sadly, it would not surprise me if they tried to “treat” people aka experiment on them without consent. Especially those most vulnerable with higher support needs, which is really sickening.

Slfestmaccnt | an hour ago

Why would they deny it when their goal is exactly the same as every other fascist movement, turn the "undesirables" into slave labor. Remember RFK jrs "Wellness farms" idea?

We are called a "canary in the coalmine demographic" for a reason. We are always one of the very first to be targeted by such movements. Vilified, dehumanized, treated as undesirable.

Maybe you heard RFK talking specifically about us falsely saying we will "never start a family, move out of home, hold a job or go to school". He was describing those on the lowest functionality end of the spectrum, they are far from the majority.

The overwhelming majority of us do indeed have and do all or most of those things. Family, work, education, etc. But the goal is to make us seem barely human. Right now they using it to try and scare parents into seeing us as horrible outcomes that barely function in order to scare them out of getting vaccines so it serves a double focus.

It serves to spread misinformation about people on the spectrum and our quality of life, and it scares dumb gullible people into fearing autism spectrum so much they'd rather risk having a dead child than an autistic one.

With enough people having the wrong impression of autistic people and seeing them as less than an average human combined with our society's obsession with productivity justifying damn near anything, forced labor as a means of "contributing to society" becomes palatable to those who were gullible, naive and shitty enough to fall for it all.

The goal is always the policing of outgroups that have lower public visibility and so won't be missed when they are disappeared to labor camps. Throw in cheap labor and you can see where this leads and why.

There's also some who believe that being on the spectrum makes us less susceptible to normal means of propaganda, something to do with how we tend to analyze the world differently from our "neurotypical"(a term within the autistic community referring to those not on the spectrum, it can be said with resentment and spite but that is not how I'm using it) peers.

Dunno how accurate it is but it would as usual vary from person to person. But they hate intellectuals and those less likely to fall in line, question their intentions, loyalty and ethics and just anyone who isn't a maleable dipshit.

Otterfan | 12 hours ago

My money is on an order compelling the development of new separate vaccines for measles, mumps, and rubella to replace the current MMR combined vaccine.

For some reason Trump is very, very keen on doing that, and it plays publicly as less pants-on-head than other vaccine policy changes. Childhood vaccine skepticism polls poorly, and his advisors don't want him to to appear too wacky three months before mid-terms.

It's the kind of thing that's a bad idea, but it doesn't seem threatening to Joe and Janey Voter.

seasuighim | 12 hours ago

Do not most anti-vaccers complain about the amount of vaccines children recieve? This would add three more.

Otterfan | 6 hours ago

Yeah, but it's a big thing in the antivax movement for some reason.

Trump is obsessed with the idea, because it fits OK with his personal support of vaccines (he's vaccinated, his family is vaccinated) while still feeding right-wing paranoia that people with education are out to get you.

Millennial_on_laptop | 5 hours ago

They already count those as 9 different vaccines (3 doses x 3 diseases) when they tally them up.

That's how they make claims like kids are getting 60 vaccines.

PinkUnicornsRule | 8 hours ago

This was literally what the plan was for the guy who started the modern antivaxx movement, Andrew Wakefield. He claimed the three together were dangerous but separate they were fine, and he falsified evidence in his “study” linking MMR to autism.

Turns out he was hired by an American lawyer to create doubt about MMR so they could market their own measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines they were going to sell.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Trump wanted in on that grift.

What matters isn't the EO, but how the media will report on the EO. EO's mean nothing other than as an outline of how the federal govt will treat internal policy, though to be fair that incudes funding that isn't specifically directed from Congress. It doesn't change how vaccines work or what hospitals use or how, or the science of vaccines or anything else. How our media covers this EO and it's impacts is going to be very important, because they tend to cover EOs as if they're federal laws when they are not.

White House drafting executive order to dial down gravity a bit. Too heavy.

The idea that vaccines cause autism is 1000% bullshit, but even if it weren’t: vaccines save lives, and autistic people’s lives matter.

People who want to ban vaccines because they (falsely) think they cause autism are telling autistic people that they’d rather have kids be dead than autistic.

And given that we know that autism is (at least to some extent) genetic, it’s only a short step from “ban vaccines because they (supposedly) cause autism” to “forcibly sterilize autistic people” or “round autistic people up and put them to death.”

drchris6000 | 11 hours ago

As dumb as this whole administration has been... this has to be the stupidest idea yet. The nonsense vaccine/autism thing has been investigated to death for years, and it has never produced any evidence. Just at face value, how is a vaccine given after birth causing autism in the first place? It is way more likely that during pregnancy while the brain is being developed, there is some trigger there.

I don’t think it works like that.

When people use the “both sides” argument, it’s warranted, but hella infuriating. It’s never to say it’s great — it’s only because moderates, liberals, or far leftists would never draw up such a stupid policy without any real evidence nor any to help the general public.  Our legislators and the general public at large are basically illiterate by choice.  Do they not realize their idol has likely taken vaccines, but the general public should not be allowed to decide for themselves.

The whole country is complicit and in the fall of american exceptionalism. every single last one of us. we don’t go out and fight. we don’t demand better. we don’t hold our politicians accountable for their bullshit.

can someone point out really quick who’s doing this to us? the main people i mean.

Necessary-Dot2714 | 8 hours ago

Well, since you've already lumped all of us into "we," perhaps educate yourself on the current administration, Congress, and Supreme Court before asking your question. And, no, not everyone is complicit. Have you gone out and fought? Have you written letters to congressional leaders demanding accountability? You're equating inactivity with complicity and selling a lot of Americans short.

For being a movement that is supposed to be interested in the facts they sure rule from authority an awful lot. If the law does not work for HHS than Trump can not just create his preference into law here if the evidence is against him. It is like the tylenol thing all over again but more people are going to die from this one than that.

Journalists are too much of cowards but he should be confronted pretty hard. Doctors and scientists should also be included in any discussion with RFK Jr. or others defending administration policy and have the citations on hand and available to those watching.

As this is purely arguing because we said so and nothing more.

The "Rise of Autism" is likely the younger generations genetically recovering from the episode in history where they were essentially pumping lead into the atmosphere and poisoning everyone

The problem is the model of what they considered average intelligence was generated from brains that were also exposed to it

It's why Boomers are so godamnned dumb compared to literally everyone else on the planet, and seem to lack the ability for empathy

It also explains why the world has turned to complete shit under their direction

You know it would be really cool if vaccines fully protected those vaccinated and those not well good luck. It would also be awesome if science could create something that would reverse vaccines for all those non believers but not harm anyone who is vaccinated. I feel like the world would be much better off if vaccines worked that way. Anyway I’ll keep getting mine.

Look up history of fascism and the "canary in the coalmine demographics" they always target.

Nazis did the same exact thing, turned us into slave labor and subjects for human experimentation.

And RFK is already doing the human experimentation shit:

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/jun/12/autism-stem-cell-infusions-rfk-jr

And they are also doing awful shit to trans inmates and I remind you, republicans plan was always to make being LGBTQ a punishable crime and something you can be locked up for. See where this is going?
