    Source: RFK Jr tells US families to vaccinate children against measles amid outbreak | Robert F Kennedy Jr | The Guardian

    . . .
    The health secretary (RFK Jr. RJW) replied: “Parents should get their children vaccinated for measles. A measles vaccine is effective, it stops measles in about 97% of the cases. People should get vaccinated.”

    Later in the interview he added that people should also get the combined measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, the main protection against the disease that has been a particular target of the anti-vaccination movement. . . .

    I wonder what might be happening in 94-95 days that might have changed his mind about vaccine science?

    When I see him funding public service announcements advocating vaccinations, I’ll see it as a real change. Until then, just a ‘gift horse.’

    Isn't this like closing the barn doors after all the animals has already left???

    The CDC actually monitors and test foreign food products randomly entering this country until the line item budget was cut.:whistle: Cyclospora anyone - that was one the the things CDC looked for. (y)

    As I stated in another post; Just drink bleach; you'll be fine......:censored:o_O Please don't drink bleach; I'm just kidding - Just in case.......

    RFK's sanity left the dock a long time ago. that's why he fits in so well in Washington.
    the thing with all these guys like him and Oz is that they throw just enough truth in with their lies to fool the feeble minded

    just out of curiosity shouldn't we mention the CDC has redone the food pyramid which has been needed to be done for decades along with some other very positive changes to the programs the CDC offers.

    Nutrition Guidelines and Recommendations | Nutrition | CDC

    also been working hard to ban food colorings and other carcinogens from our food
    Tracking Food Industry Pledges to Remove Petroleum Based Food Dyes | FDA

    Dr Oz has been quite busy
    Dr. Oz Exposes $4 Billion California Health Care Fraud

    Dr. Oz: Medicare fraud crackdown targets $100 billion in annual losses

    Dr. Oz announces a Medicaid audit in all 50 states | AP News

    District of Massachusetts | Massachusetts Man Charged in $5 Million Medicare Fraud Scheme as Part of National Health Care Fraud Takedown | United States Department of Justice

    extremely one-sided irrational postings here, more focused on character attacks rather than usable information.
    no wonder younger generation is so put off by the older people in our country who focus on nonsensical arguing and idiot political parties rather than actions for the common good.

    just because an individual or leader has a different opinion than you, belongs to a different party or has a different way of looking at things doesn't mean they are wrong, a demon from hell, completely out of touch with the world.

    Somehow when the headline touts "his name" did it, it arouses my suspicions. Attention grabbing.

    On and near topic, it is reasonable to anticipate several gift horses in coming few months that need dental exams.

    Quite possible - it really doesn't matter to me who or when the investigations started or who gets the credit. If President Bided started the investigation - good job, if Trump is finishing it good for him. I would like to see Mn have to put a plan together to have to pay back the money that the Federal Government was defrauded of.

    It is high time these parasites on our tax dollars have been identified and begin to be prosecuted.

    One of the most notable accomplishments recently has been the identification of the enormous fraud in our Medicare system and the states who are actually encouraging this fraud.

    I have only been on Medicare for about 7 years and have had to change my Medicare card number twice and had to contact Medicare three times on fraudulent charges that appeared on my Medicare account.

    In Mn and Ca it seems Government officials were complicit in enabling this fraud

    To highlight how ingrained this type of state fraud is:
    One of the more interesting moments of the Los Angles Mayors Race Debates was when current Los Angles Mayor Karen Bass was asked what surprised her the most when she became the Mayor of Los Angles- she replied that she was dumbfounded by the number of people who didn't want to address the homeless problem and actively opposed any initiative to address and eliminate this problem in Los Angles-they actually wanted to encourage the homeless situation and fought her every effort to address it.
    ...apparently there are people and organizations who actually profit from funding for homelessness and fight tooth and nail against efforts to address it...

    ....it is hard for me to imagine the type of morally bankrupt people who commit this type of fraud...

    ..I guess because of the way I was raised and the area of the country I am from I might be naive to this type behavior...

    Start at the top with the one claiming an eternal “tax audit.”

    I'm glad they are going after fraud, as they always have to line extent or another. but my question is, how much is it reducing the national debt?
    maybe we should be talking about spending, and who is watching the pursestrings

    That was an official notebook he, by law, was required to leave behind after he left. Fauci did nothing wrong, his service was superb throughout his career. I don’t see anything wrong with his entry. Because of the covid shutdowns they need to address children getting vaccinated against measles.

    the extent of this fraud is overwhelming, and it is possibly just the tip of the iceberg

    Nothing is new here, Minnesota has a fraud investigation dept. All states do. No one anywhere wants to encourage homelessness. If you insist on believing lies, it is your right to do so. The biggest fraudster is the president himself you voted for, no one comes close. His mouth is like a river of lies to further himself, and his actions prove it.

    LA awards $106M to nonprofit whose lawyers hinder city's ability to clean up streets

    "Los Angeles just cut a whopping $106.6 million taxpayer check to a nonprofit law firm whose lawyers have spent years hindering the city’s ability to dismantle homeless camps and clean up city streets — with one attorney billing as much as $1,025 an hour for work tied to its activism.
    The Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles (LAFLA) was awarded the largest share of an eye-popping $177 million tenant rights funding package approved at City Hall this week, despite opposition from the City Attorney."

    "Under the deal, Los Angeles will funnel $106,572,543.69 over the next three years to LAFLA for eviction defense services, even as attorneys connected to the organization have repeatedly filed lawsuits that blocked the city from enforcing municipal codes aimed at keeping sidewalks clear of encampments and neighborhoods safe."

    "The Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles reported about $58.6 million in revenue in its most recent 2024 IRS filing.
    In other words, the new City Hall contract alone is nearly twice the nonprofit’s annual revenue."

    CityWatch LA - The Homeless-Industrial Complex
    "Miguel Santana was very honest when he said at a forum organized in the spring of 2023 by the Urban Land Institute to discuss homelessness, "We have created a system not for the homeless, but for the interests who benefit from that system."
    It is my observation and conviction that we have a “Homeless-Industrial Complex” —whereby special groups are enjoying benefits and privileges from the billions allocated to address our existing homelessness issue—and that vested interests continue to flourish"

    Homelessness is back on the rise in LA. Advocates say efforts to ‘warehouse’ people aren’t helping

    They'll just get elected to office as republicans.
    MSN

    Is the extent really overwhelming, or are they posting DOGE numbers that will be downgraded at a later date?
