You'll never guess what flip-flopper Meghan McCain is hawking now

Conservative pundit and self-described political “nepo baby” Meghan McCain has endorsed a medically questionable vaccine detox after previously advocating for vaccinations at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a post to X on Wednesday, McCain falsely claimed that “concerning data continues to emerge regarding mRNA vaccines and their unforeseen health impacts.” She went on to call for these vaccines to be pulled from the market.

The post was an endorsement for Ultimate Spike Detox from the Wellness Company and advertised the use of a coupon code using her name.

“Detox” products for vaccinations are fake, quack science. The product that McCain has endorsed comes from Dr. Peter McCullough, whose credentials were revoked by the American Board of Internal Medicine after he promoted anti-vaccination nonsense about COVID-19. McCullough’s company has also been connected to other right-wing conspiracy theorists like Kari Lake and Laura Loomer.

If idiots like Meg hate vaccines so much, just stop taking them, and suffer the consequences. That's what she and idiots like her are advocating, isn't?

4. The "wellnes" industries are trying to take over all medical care

They are not interested in finding cures. They are only interested in feel good medications that manage symptoms. That's where the money is.

as I never took the vax.

I have been taking most of the ingredients on that label for the better part of 10 years now. Primarily for mitochondrial health.
