Today we're discussing some of the failures of the CDC, an organization that is supposed to be putting Americans' health at the forefront. The CDC recently relaxed its milestones for children's speech development, essentially admitting the damage that lockdowns, masks, and screens have done to our kids' learning ability. So, rather than let parents know that they should step up and make sure their kids are developmentally where they're meant to be, of course the progressives at the CDC just lowered the standards so no one feels left out. And calling this out is somehow "ableist" and "exclusionary"? Please. The CDC also appears to be withholding data on how the vaccines and boosters are affecting people, and even the New York Times is reporting on this. They say it's because the CDC is worried that people will misunderstand the data, but it seems more likely they're scared we'll understand it perfectly.\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors: \n\n\nBirch Gold helps you convert an IRA or 401(k) into a tax-sheltered IRA in gold.
