Ben Ferguson: 作为主持人，我介绍了美国卫生与公众服务部在RFK Jr.的领导下取消了与Moderna的7.66亿美元疫苗合同，原因是他们认为mRNA技术可能不安全。这一举动反映了对mRNA疫苗安全性和有效性的担忧，以及对公众信任的维护。我认为，政府此举是在恢复人们在疫情期间被剥夺的选择权，并强调了对疫苗安全性的重视。我对特朗普政府在此问题上的立场表示赞同，认为他们正在采取行动以保护美国的利益和纳税人的钱。

1. Cancellation of Moderna's Bird Flu Vaccine Contract

  • The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., canceled a $766 million contract with Moderna.
  • The contract was intended to fund the development of an mRNA-based vaccine for pandemic influenza, including H5N1 (bird flu).
  • Despite positive early trial results from Moderna, the administration cited scientific, ethical, and safety concerns as reasons for the cancellation.
  • The move reflects RFK Jr.'s skepticism toward mRNA vaccines and aligns with his broader rollback of COVID-19 vaccine recommendations.

2. FBI Reopening High-Profile Investigations

  • FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced the reopening or renewed focus on several public corruption cases, including:

  • The January 6 pipe bomb incident.

  • The White House cocaine discovery (July 2023).

  • The leak of the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade.

  • Bongino emphasized a push for transparency and public engagement, encouraging tips from the public.

3. Federal Crackdown on Harvard University

  • The Trump administration is canceling or redirecting $100 million in federal contracts with Harvard, following a freeze of $2.6 billion in research grants.

  • The administration cites concerns over campus climate, anti-American sentiment, and violence against Jewish and American students.

  • Additional measures include:

  • Pausing student visa interviews.

  • Implementing new social media screening for foreign students.

  • The administration frames this as a move to redirect funds to trade schools, promote accountability, and encourage institutional self-reliance.
