Given the anti-science (hell, the anti-knowledge) stance of the current administration, I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if I were to see an announcement that autism is fully under control because the FDA and any otehr federal agency with even tangential responsibility has declared that vaccinations are completely up to the parents, the parents do not need to give a reason for non-vaccinating, and every school in the country, public and private, is required to take non-vaccinated students.

Go ahead. Convince me of the error of my ways here. Do your best. Sadly, your best will still be tarnished by Trump and his cohorts’ worst.

As soon as she mentioned Special Olympics being better funded by philanthropy, I would’ve shouted, “How much is the Orange Turd going to give?”
