THUNDERDOME: Scott Jennings Triggers CNN Panel Libs over ‘Pregnant People.’
The segment went sideways when Jennings pointed out that one of the resigning CDC officials, former National Monkeypox Deputy Response Coordinator Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, used the term “pregnant people” in his resignation letter. Anyone with half a brain can understand how this is actually anti-science because only women can get pregnant. The science is quite settled on that fact. And “pregnant people” presumes otherwise. This is clearly an example of politicized science.
It also bears noting that monkeypox was sold to the American people as a highly transmissible disease, when in fact it was a sexually transmitted disease- transmitted in a very specific manner. The disease would subsequently be renamed “mpox” so as to avoid stigmatizing gay men. Reasonable people might say that THIS also was politicized science and just one of the many such excesses of the Biden Era.
By throwing “pregnant people” into the discussion Jennings thus undid, or rather blew up, a carefully constructed narrative framework about the dangers of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. But the American people voted for a Make America Healthy Again agenda. And the people are entitled to the appointment of functionaries that will implement the agenda they voted for.
As for Abby Phillip, she once again interrupted and hectored and misrepresented Jennings’ arguments by suggesting that his objection was to the word “people.” It was not. Jennings once again argued the panel liberals (Phillip included) into a 5% position against 95% of America.

In 2020, the left wanted carveouts from being locked down to have mostly peaceful but often quite fiery riots and looting and statue toppling. Last year, “In conversations caught on hidden camera, New York City’s former COVID czar said that he’d organized a pair of sex parties in the second half of 2020, as New Yorkers coped with peak pandemic social isolation. ‘The only way I could do this job for the city was if I had some way to blow off steam every now and then,’ Jay Varma told an undercover reporter with whom he thought he was on a date.” In 2023, Daskalakis went the full Reuters and argued, “One person’s idea of risk is another person’s idea of a great festival or Friday night.”
Incidentally, Trump could use Daskalakis’ resignation and other protests at the CDC as a tool to further accelerate the changes he desires there:
