Summary
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2:
- Paul Thacker—Investigative Journalist & former Fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard University—joins The Rich Zeoli to discuss his latest report, “Congress Must Hold the CDC Accountable for Cozy Ties to Pharma.” Thacker writes, “why won't congressional investigators force the CDC Director to explain why Pfizer and Moderna’s PR firm is embedded at the agency’s vaccine center?” You can find this report, and all of Thacker’s work, at his Substack— “The Disinformation Chronicle”: https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/congress-must-hold-the-cdc-accountable
- While announcing the creation of the Council on Supply Chain Resilience, President Joe Biden blamed increased prices on “price gouging.” On Meet the Press this weekend, panelist Leigh Ann Caldwell of The Washington Post said that “Bidenomics has become a negative word…because it’s not working.”
- Abigail Anthony of National Review writes: “Sieged Security, which describes itself as a group of ‘gay furry hackers,’ recently infiltrated a leading U.S. nuclear-research facility and obtained sensitive personal data. The group claimed responsibility for the attack in statements on public forums. ‘Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow,’ the group wrote.” You can read Anthony’s full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/gay-furry-hackers-breach-u-s-nuclear-research-facility/
