BREAKING: California just HIRED the CDC director that RFK Jr fired for being fact based, Susan Monarez, to launch a movement to bring back trust in science. 🔥👏 When MAGA fails to lead the country, California fills the gap!
Lawyers for Monarez say she was ‘targeted’ for ‘protecting the public’ by not endorsing ‘unscientific’ orders
They want to get rid of her because she actually believes in science and doesn't want everybody to die a horrible death like what happened the last time Trump was elected.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., used his opening remarks to say that former CDC director Susan Monarez was fired because she refused to be a "rubber stamp" for Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his agenda. Sanders also took time to criticize the agenda and policies of the Department of Health and Human Services under Kennedy.

RFK Jr. Claimed CDC Was ‘Killing Children’ According to Former Director

Susan Monarez was grilled Wednesday by Republican senators who are running cover for Kennedy and Trump's anti-science agenda.
Former CDC Director Susan Monarez testified at a combative Senate hearing in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday about the ways that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is dismantling scientific expertise at CDC, confirming the worst fears of every American who still cares about science and public health.
Monarez, who was fired by President Donald Trump less than a month after being confirmed, told senators that Kennedy told her in August that he was going to change the childhood vaccine schedule in September and “I needed to be on board with it.” She was then pushed out of the agency before being formally let go by Trump for refusing to go along with the changes and firing others who disagreed.
“I could have stayed silent, agreed to the demands, and no one would have known. What the public would have seen were scientists dismissed without cause and vaccine protections quietly eroded,” Monarez said. “I would have lost the one thing that cannot be replaced: my integrity.”
Monarez’s lawyers said she “refused to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives.” The White House responded that she was “not aligned
Monarez’s lawyers said she “refused to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives.” The White House responded that she was “not aligned with the President’s agenda.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention leadership was in stunning disarray Wednesday evening after the Trump administration fired the agency’s director hours after she refused to resign under pressure.
The director, Susan Monarez, said she was resisting being ousted by the nation’s top health official, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., for political reasons after about a month in office.
