Summary
Trump’s FBI director pick, Kash Patel, promoted unproven supplements claiming to “detox” Covid vaccines, a stance unsupported by scientific evidence.
Patel endorsed Warrior Essentials’ “Spike Protein Detox Protocol” on Truth Social, though experts confirm such products are ineffective.
The supplement company profits from anti-vaccine misinformation, despite Covid vaccines being safe and FDA-approved. Experts warn supplement claims often exploit regulatory loopholes and public distrust in science.
Patel’s promotion aligns with Trump’s broader trend of nominating vaccine skeptics, including figures critical of vaccine mandates and public health policies.
The nuts are running the nut house
