Former CDC officials testifying before Congress

Once again, it is female professionals who are brave enough to speak truth to power. Like Liz Cheney, they were paragons of integrity. Making me proud to be in public health.

Can you elaborate ? She drives me crazy because she sometimes does show integrity but when it counts she virtually always votes with Trump.

Apologies, this remark should have been directed at Senator Mullin.

Her questions were non partisan, and seemed to reflect concern for the welfare of the Public (vs slavish compliance with Trump and his incompetent appointees)

Cassidy sounds like he should be requesting RFK Jr to resign. But he probably won't.

Wow, and it now comes out that when Mullin was telling her that she better be honest because her meeting with Kennedy was reordered…HE WAS LYING!!!!

Dr. Cassidy voted to confirm RFK Jr. even though he knew RFK was a crackpot. And RFK Jr. wouldn't resign if someone politely asked him too. The man is a messianic loon.

Well in his defense, being a messianic loon seems to run in the Kennedy family

Republicans voted to confirm RFK Jr, and are doing nothing to stop him.

Susan Monarez, the former head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ousted by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., told a Senate committee on Wednesday that she was fired for “holding the line on scientific integrity” and said the nation’s top health official had attacked the agency and undermined public health.

Dr. Monarez told the Senate Health Committee that she was dismissed after refusing Mr. Kennedy’s demands to fire C.D.C. vaccine officials and to preemptively agree to approve vaccine recommendations without seeing the science behind them. Another witness, Dr. Deb Houry, who resigned as the C.D.C.’s chief medical officer over Dr. Monarez’s dismissal, told the panel she believed Mr. Kennedy should resign, citing the deaths of children during a measles outbreak in Texas. Children, she said, “have died under his watch.”
