Important Context ‘Experts’ Cited By RFK Jr. to Justify mRNA Vaccine Funding Cut Have Ties to Anti-vax Supplement Company Four authors of the non-peer reviewed, anti-vax bibliography cited by Kennedy’s HHS are involved with The Wellness Company. Walker Bragman Aug 17, 2025 The 181-page document, “COVID-19 mRNA ‘vaccine’ harms research collection,” which is hosted on an open website, is a bibliography of misrepresented studies—the overwhelming majority of which have nothing to do with the vaccines. It originally appeared in an independently published 2024 anti-vax book “Toxic Shot: Facing the Dangers of the COVID ‘Vaccines,’” according to its opening page. Co-authored by Canadian immunologist Bryan Bridle, a professor at a veterinary college in Ontario and one of the authors on the bibliography, the book featured a foreword from Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Naomi Wolff—both of whom have promoted conspiracy theories about the mRNA vaccines.
Deregulation of supplements has funded the right-wing greatly, so much so some think that regulating it would go a long way toward defeating the far right.
Supplements need regulation! Defeat the right-wing step 2 according to It Could Happen Here podcast… Chloe Humbert Sep 18, 2024 Even if this doesn’t defeat the right-wing, it’s the right thing to do, because for pity’s sake I am so exhausted by overpriced products that have no standards, and might be adulterated or counterfeit. And especially the sheer volume of pseudoscience quackery involved in selling all and sundry products. It’s bonkers level, and I’m not even listening to the right-wing shows that really hammer people with ads for this stuff…
My letter to reps:
Supplements need to be regulated. It’s ridiculous that the supplements and rogue alternative medical products industry is billions and even more than prescription pharmaceuticals. And there’s no guarantees you even know what you’re getting, if it’s counterfeit or if it’s adulterated or if it’s harmful, or whether it’s useful at all.
