News snippet: Susan Monarez, the ousted director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has stood by her statement that she was fired after resisting changes to vaccine policy advanced by US health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, that she believed contradicted scientific evidence.
In an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal, Monarez said she had been directed to pre-approve vaccine recommendations and fire career CDC officials, describing her ouster as part of a broader push to weaken US vaccine standards.
However at a fiery Senate hearing on Thursday, Kennedy said she lied and that he had never told Monarez she needed to pre-approve decisions, but that he did order her to fire officials, which she refused to do.
“Secretary Kennedy’s claims are false, and at times, patently ridiculous. Monarez stands by what she said in her Wall Street Journal op-ed,” her lawyers said in a statement, adding that she was willing to repeat it under oath.
Senators Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren have already called for Monarez to be called to testify before the senate, which would be under oath.

Why is the word false in quotation marks? His answers were demonstrably false.

The rot starts at the top. Our POTUS has set an example of regularly lying to the public on all sorts of things. It flows from there.

Oh my. Lying on camera during Senate testimony. That sounds like the sort of thing with consequences.

If they’d start exacting recourse on these pathological liars, the risk of loss of power may motivate a change.

Using parentheses for ‚truth‘ is a perversion of reality.

This man is not fit to be responsible for making a sandwich much less public health. Get him out of here.

I just realized that the reason Trump appointed RFK Jr was because he wanted to destroy the families democratic legacy

No need for quotation marks. And still, where’s the Epstein list?

Just use the word LIES already. Call out BS for what it is, every liar, every lie, every time.
