This is what congress wants though. Otherwise they wouldn't have confirmed RFK Jr.

Maybe, or maybe they expected a bunch of noise, but not a vaccine ban. If the latter, they might be willing to return to the historic American policy of trying to keep people alive

Conservatives owning up? God you're funny.

Don't have to own up. Just blame Kennedy's brain worm or mitochondria or something

Throwing one another under busses is core to their platform.

Nah, there are a whole lotta butthurt dumbasses that want Fauci's hide and want their "retribution" for vaccine mandates, something they are even still outraged about.
And because they are so butthurt about a lot of stupid things that they believe without evidence, they not only reject vaccine mandates (mah freedumz), but they don't want anyone else to get vaccinated, either.
Sure, some of them might couch it in bullshit narratives about "clot shots" or how they are "protecting the children" because they supposedly "don't need it" (the science doesn't agree), but that's not really the problem. They want revenge for someone telling them what to do to improve health outcomes. These are the YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO people. And naturally, they want someone like Taco and bobby brainworm to own the libs by withholding life-saving medicine from everyone.

Monkey’s paw: Congress intervenes by rounding up all CDC staff and chaining them to their desks.

Or like in Texas, personal "bodyguards" to make sure they do what they're told.

What does this actually mean?
They followed these guys out to the car park and then turned around and went back to their desks?

RFK's hacksaw implementation of MAGA's purposeful destruction of the nation's healthcare system is nearly complete.
All that's needed now is a super plague to help "
thin out the herd".

This will make it easy to replace them with loyalist dipshits. Or just leave CDC with less staff, either one.
