"This person was a lawyer for RFK's campaign, and is not RFK's personal lawyer. Otherwise, this petition is unrelated to RFK. The headline is completely misleading because it makes it seem like this petition was on behalf of RFK. But the petition was on behalf of some other client of this law firm, unrelated to RFK.
This is about one particular polio vaccine (not all of them), which the FDA is alleged to have violated their own review and approval procedures for. The petition is asking for the FDA to withdraw its approval and conduct a scientifically valid trial that adheres to their own guidelines. In this case, it appears that the FDA's safety study only examined a 3 day period following injection. The FDA's own guidelines say that the review period should be much longer, especially for children where the FDA has said the review period needs to be multiple years since developmental disorders can take time to be diagnosed.
It also seems like the product is misleadingly labeled and marketed as a vaccine since it does not (according to the CDC) prevent some forms of infection and transmission, which makes it not a vaccine since it doesn't grant immunity (unless you use very recent claims that the definition is different).
The petition was from 2022, not recently. The lawyer has said on record that this petition was on behalf of a client. It's unrelated to RFK or Trump, both of whom are on the record saying they don't want to reduce access to vaccines.
This petition has nothing to do with autism and doesn't mention it.
The petition itself does nothing. It gives the FDA a chance to respond. If they did a proper study that adheres to guidelines from medical research, their own procedures, and guidance from the NIH and CDC, it should be easy to respond."

Trump nominates Scott Bessent as treasury secretary; picks Russ Vought to lead budget office (Project 2025 PRIMARY AUTHOR)

Bessent was a key economic policy adviser and fundraiser for the Trump campaign.

Treasury secretaries often lead negotiations with Congress over tax and spending matters and play a role in dealing with foreign governments and financial institutions, as well as handling the operations of the Treasury Department and sub-agencies like the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Bessent previously attended & taught at Yale University. He worked at Soros Fund Management (SFM) from 1991 to 2005, starting as a partner and eventually leading the firm's London office. After starting his own venture capital and working at another firm, he returned to Soros Fund Management from 2011 to 2015 as chief investment officer, before he left to found his investment firm, Key Square Group.

During the 2024 campaign, Trump denied knowing anything about the “ridiculous & abysmal” plans written in part by his first-term aides and allies. "President Trump never had anything to do with Project 2025,”

Regarding OMB Nominee Russ Voight:

The OMB director develops POTUS proposed budget. Vought is a primary contributor to the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 and a close Trump ally.

Additional Project 2025 contributors slated for CIA and Federal Communications chiefs

John Ratcliffe, Trump’s pick to lead the CIA, was previously one of Trump’s DNIs. He is a Project 2025 contributor.

Brendan Carr, the senior Republican on the Federal Communications Commission, wrote Project 2025’s FCC chapter & is now Trump’s pick to chair the FCC.

MAGA, you got played... AGAIN!

In her first answer, Harris tried to set out both her own story as a child of the middle class and how she intended to build an opportunity economy for others, lowering food and housing costs and opening the way for more small businesses. It was a lot, quickly, and she looked a little nervous.

Then Trump spoke and it was clear he was going off the rails. His first comment was to suggest Harris was lying, and then to insist that his proposed tariffs will solve everything, although he has the way tariffs work entirely backward: they are paid by the consumer, not by foreign countries. As he followed with a long list of his rally lies, Harris started to smile.

From then on, he continued to produce rally stories full of wild exaggerations and attack Harris with lies in what CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale called “a staggeringly dishonest debate performance from former president Trump.” "No major presidential candidate before Donald Trump has ever lied with this kind of frequency,” Dale said. “A remarkably large chunk of what he said tonight was just not true. This wasn't little exaggerations, political spin. A lot of his false claims were untethered to reality." As Harris spoke directly to the American people, growing stronger and stronger, Trump got wilder and angrier and told more and more crazy stories.

And then, about ten minutes into the debate, Harris baited him. She invited the American people to go to one of his rallies, where “he talks about fictional characters like Hannibal Lecter, he will talk about ‘windmills cause cancer.’ And what you will also notice is that people start leaving his rallies early out of exhaustion and boredom.”

Trump lost it. He defended his rallies, said Harris couldn’t get anyone to attend hers and has to bus in attendees (in reality, her rallies are packed and he is the one who reportedly hires attendees), and then, in his fury, repeated the lie about immigrants eating pets.

Just FYI I openly admit that Trump lost last night’s debate and I say that as a moderate conservative.

I also believe it was the most disgustingly biased moderated debate in American history that doesn’t mean I won’t admit Trump put on poor performance. He got (understandably) frustrated and let his ego get the better of him. He let Kamala get under his skin. He’s no stranger to hostile environments either. All he needed to do was respond with “well why didn’t you do that as VP Kamala?” when she gave her bs promises. But he didn’t respond like that until the very end of the debate. He should of done that from the start.

I am also very suspicious about how Kamala never seemed surprised by any question that was asked of her. I watched her primary 2020 debates. I also remember her VP debate with Mike Pence. That was the most comfortable she ever looked in a debate. Ever.

Sure the questions were mostly anti-Trump (the one loaded question asking Trump about Kamala’s race made me want to vomit). She also had the moderators debating Trump for her. But considering how disgustingly obvious it was that ABC was anti-Trump would I be a conspiracy theorist to believe she was likely leaked the debate questions in advance? For now I would like to pretend she wasn’t, but if there is any shred of verified evidence is released about this later I will quickly change my mind

Anyway I predict that the Harris campaign will take that win and run with it. They will do all they can to keep Kamala out of future debates. They will also continue to keep her away from any interview where she will unexpectedly get asked a tough question.
