"The Sick & Diseased Are Easier to Control:" Reacting to RFK's Hearing Throwdown
As you know... because it's been repeatedly debunked. That statement that I made on the Lex Friedman podcast was a fragment of the statement. I said there are no vaccines that are safe and effective, and I was going to continue for every person. Every medicine has people who are sensitive to them. including vaccines. So he interrupted me at that point.

I've corrected it many times, including on national TV. You know about this, Senator Wyden. So bringing this up right now is dishonest.

Let me just reassure you that President Trump has personally spoken to me about locating those 300,000 children who disappeared over the last four years. I don't think anybody has a fully accurate number, but it's hundreds of thousands, I agree. And many of them we know have been sex trafficked and childhood slavery, and it is a blight on America's moral authority, and we need to find those kids.

Americans don't, by and large, do not like the Affordable Care Act. People are on it. They don't like Medicaid. They like Medicare. And they like private insurance. We need to listen to what people, they would prefer to be on private insurance. Most Americans, if they can afford to be, will be on private insurance.

We need to figure out ways to improve care, particularly for elderly, for veterans, for the poor in this country. And Medicaid, the current model, is not doing that.

My journey into the issue of health began with my career. as an environmental attorney, working with hunters and fishermen and mothers in a small town in the Hudson Valley and along the Hudson River, I learned very early on that human health and environmental injuries are intertwined. The same chemicals that kill fish make people sick. Let's continue to cut 134.

The United States has worse health than any other developed nation, yet we spend more on health care, at least double, and in some cases triple, as other countries. Last year, we spent $4.8 trillion, not counting the indirect costs of missed work.

For a long time, the nation has been locked in a divisive healthcare debate about who pays. When healthcare costs reach 20%, there are no good options, only bad ones. Shifting the burden around between government and corporations and insurers and providers and families is like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Our country will sink beneath a sea of desperation and debt.

that vaccines play a critical role in healthcare. All of my kids are vaccinated. I've written many books on vaccines. My first book in 2014, the first line of it is, I am not anti-vaccine. And the last line is, I am not anti-vaccine. In my advocacy, I've often disturbed the status quo by asking uncomfortable questions.

Ask Charlie Anything 208: Fat Kids = Child Abuse? Afghanistan Alternatives? Is DCFS Abusive?
Hi, Charlie. Charlie, you've been critical of the post 9-11 American military efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq. I don't disagree with you. I just plead ignorance on what would have been a better way to respond to the 9-11 attacks. Could you please build out your thinking on what a better course of action would have been?
