    This makes me sick. Or rather, them sick. Or, whatever, this was a totally fucked up and inexcusable thing to do.

    The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden’s presidency, Reuters found – even after alarmed social media executives warned the new administration that the Pentagon had been trafficking in COVID misinformation. The Biden White House issued an edict in spring 2021 banning the anti-vax effort.

    I think this is important to note. Even though the Biden admin eventually stopped it, it could have been done sooner.
