I'd have no problem with Pompeo. The problem with Pompeo is that he wouldn't kiss Trump's ass, he would do what was best for the men and women serving.
In short, he's a quack. Let's leave diabetes and obesity to the side for the moment. You wingnuts threw an absolute shit fit when liberals wanted to ban Big Gulps. So don't pretend you care about that now.
The supposed link between Autism and vaccines has been thoroughly debunked. The reason why autism is "on the rise" is that teachers and health professionals are better at diagnosing it.

Gabbard was a crank. The fact that democrats let her on the stage until she polled too poorly to be included was probably a misstep. But they let Marriance Williams on the stage, to, and that woman is a nut as well.

Moscow claimed Ukraine was using the labs to create deadly bioweapons similar to COVID-19 that could be used against Russia, and that Russian President Vladimir Putin had no choice but to invade neighboring Ukraine to protect his country.
In fact, the labs are public and part of an international effort to control outbreaks and stop bioweapons.
