RFK Jr. sat on CNN and said something that should not have been controversial. He said the government’s first duty in any future pandemic is to protect constitutional rights. Not balance them against expert opinion. Not temporarily suspend them. Protect them.
Dana Bash reacted as if he had just committed a category error. She told him she did not want to “allow” him to say things that were not entirely true. Allow. That is the word she chose. Not “challenge.” Not “disagree.” Allow.
Watch that moment carefully and the entire posture becomes clear. This is not a journalist testing a claim. This is a gatekeeper deciding which premises are permitted on air. The substance of Kennedy’s argument ... that the last response got almost everything wrong ... barely registered. What registered was the unacceptable suggestion that rights might rank above the public-health machinery.
That is the scandal that never ended. A large part of the media and the expert class still treats constitutional rights as optional equipment that can be powered down whenever the right people declare an emergency. They do not say it in those words. They simply act as if the Bill of Rights is a set of guidelines that apply only when the experts find them convenient.
Bash’s performance was not an outlier. It was a clean demonstration of the surviving mindset. The lockdowns are over. The mandates are gone. The emergency declarations have expired. But the assumption that experts outrank rights never left the building. It just learned to speak more politely until someone like Kennedy forced the issue back into the open.
The Constitution was not written as a suggestion for calm weather. It was written to restrain power precisely when fear is highest and the people in charge are most certain they know better.

No, it’s not “Pride Month.” Not for me, and not for millions of others.
You’re welcome to be proud of whatever you want, in any month you like—because this is America. But what started in 1969 as a rebellion against persecution, morphed into a license for public depravity, and then morphed again into a weapon aimed at families and innocent children. Along the way it went from a day, to a week, and then a month and became official, and thereby effectively mandatory for all.
Enough!
If you’re gay and wondering why you are facing resistance now, the answer is that, with few exceptions, most of you didn’t stand up against the expansion and weaponization of “pride,” and the coercion that went with it. In that failure to resist, the gay community compromised any expectation that the rest of us should support “pride” at all, but especially the obscene display of hostility toward civilization and the families of which it is built, and for whom it exists.
If your hackles are raised by the idea that civilization is about families, realize that families are how civilizations persist through time. Not everyone needs to form one, but we all must respect and protect them—It is the foundation of what it means to be civilized.
For the small fraction of gays and lesbians who DID courageously stand up and resist expansion, coercion and the weaponization of “Pride,” I stand with you, and I have all along. But I won’t be celebrating, and I won’t be silent.
It’s not too late to join the voices of reason and to confront the insanity of what “pride” has become.
The NDP have driven BC into the ground.
It’s time for strong Conservative leadership to get our province back on track.
This is my mission.
The times are changing! Stay tuned.
@keithbaldrey Extreme right??? What a clown. While ndp gives drugs in vending machines and gives land away- this legacy media clown thinks that isn’t radical left…. Freedom on the right isn’t extreme.
The @joerogan podcast I've been waiting almost six years to hear.
Dinner with @AaronSiriSG during COVID lockdowns changed my life. All he had to say was "Read Dissolving Illusions" by @DrSuzanneH7.
Her book presented the data that had been available for decades, but somehow hidden by the doctors that were urging me to vaccinate my kids.
The doctors were wrong.
Without data, consent cannot be "informed," can it?
NEW - Joe Rogan and Aaron Siri explain why childhood vaccine manufacturers are the only companies in America shielded from liability lawsuits for injury or death.
"Every other product that exists, I can sue the company."
"If it injures or kills you or your child, I can hold them accountable on the basis that it could have been made safer."
"The only product in America you can’t sue over for safety design defects is childhood vaccines — because of the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Act."
"Other industries faced serious harm issues."
"Gas tanks exploded. They made safer gas tanks."
"Building materials had asbestos. They removed it."
"They weren’t given immunity. They were forced to improve."
"In 1986, a child following the CDC got three vaccines before their first birthday - MMR, DTP, and OPV vaccines."
"Those three vaccines were causing so much harm and injury that manufacturers of them went out of business."
"Instead of forcing safer products, Congress did something completely unique, and granted them immunity or liability protection."
"No parent, no child can sue manufacturers for injury or death caused by childhood vaccines."
"That immunity has now been in place for nearly 40 years allowing the industry to promote their product with no pushback."
"When you read about defects in cars, it’s usually because of class-action lawsuits."
"You're not going to read about that with vaccines."
Should Trump and RFK Jr. end the 1986 liability immunity for childhood vaccine manufacturers?
@joerogan@AaronSiriSG
Yes, the narrow claim is accurate: In the 2019-2020 ICAN FOIA lawsuit, CDC stipulated it had no studies specifically showing DTaP, HepB, Hib, PCV13, or IPV (the main shots in the first 6 months) don't cause autism. The 20 studies they provided were mostly on MMR or thimerosal (not in those vaccines).
Broader evidence from large epidemiological studies (e.g., IOM reviews, cohort data across countries) shows no causal link between the childhood vaccine schedule and autism rates. Recent CDC site updates (Nov 2025) acknowledge gaps in direct "does not cause" proof for infant vaccines, citing inadequate evidence to fully rule it out or in per 1986 law reviews. Ongoing HHS studies are examining this.
