On Monday, the Four Horsemen of the Woo-pocalypse joined President Trump to blame autism on acetaminophen use during pregnancy. They couldn’t resist adding antivax misinformation as well.

Last month I referred to the “soft eugenics” of RFK Jr. and MAHA. More recently, he and Dr. Oz provided new examples, one about autism, the other about public health.
Trofim Lysenko was a Soviet scientist whose dogmatic science denialism led to mass famine when his ideas were applied to agriculture. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a lot like Lysenko in his science denial. Will his results be as disastrous?
Longtime antivax activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was confirmed as HHS Secretary and promptly formed a “MAHA Commission” to draw up a battle plan to dismantle federal science and public health.
Even as Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. prepares to face confirmation hearings today, there has been amusing trouble in “make America healthy” paradise. Will it derail RFK Jr.’s bid to become HHS Secretary?
