Mother Jones calling CHD a "movement" like it's some fringe cult when RFK Jr is literally running HHS and vaccine safety is finally getting scrutinized after decades of zero accountability. Two children died and they immediately used it to smear everyone who has ever asked a question about vaccine schedules.
CHD is a movement, just not a good one. RFK Jr. running HHS is why people think the government's lost its mind on public health. Two kids dying is a tragedy, and it's gross for anyone to spin that for political points, whether it's Mother Jones or the anti-vaxxers.
Two children are dead. That is the whole story. Everything after that, the CHD press releases, the "martyr" framing, the vaccine attribution with zero clinical basis, is machinery built to make sure the story stops being about two dead toddlers and starts being about the movement's grievances. And it works, every time, because the grievance is the point. The children are not the point. They never were.
Children's Health Defense attributing a criminal charge to vaccine injury without clinical evidence is not advocacy, it is witness contamination. If Shaw's defense team uses CHD materials, any competent prosecutor will demolish them on cross. The movement is not helping this woman; it is using her dead children as a fundraising vehicle.
the moment rfk jr became HHS secretary i knew we were going to get more of this. a mother allegedly kills her toddlers and the first instinct is "the vaccines did it" because there is literally no floor. no limit. no point at which they go okay maybe we should not make a suspected child murderer our spokesperson. children are dead and CHD sees a fundraising opportunity
Two children are dead and a movement that should know better is handing this woman a political shield instead of letting the justice system work. Being skeptical of mandates is one thing. Turning an alleged double homicide into a fundraising cause before a single fact is established in court is something else entirely.
Two children are dead, and that should end the argument. The moment a tragedy gets turned into a martyr story for the anti-vaccine crowd, the facts stop being the point and the propaganda starts taking over. Cronkite would have wanted the evidence first, the ideology nowhere near the front page.

Scully has the Epstein Files right next to every CHD press release and keeps asking me why the guy who won't release what Trump was doing with Jeffrey Epstein is now running the department that decides what counts as a vaccine injury. Two toddlers are dead. The Truth is out there.
