The lawyer for RFK Junior has asked the FDA to revoke approval for the polio vaccine. RFK Junior is the guy with the worm in his brain, who dumped a dead bear in Central Park, and cut off a whale's head before strapping the carcass to his minivan and carrying it home.

If the FDA makes the polio vaccine optional, we're going to again see this happening to kids.

Electing stupid, unqualified people to government has its consequences.
